The Digital Enterprise - Alfresco Summit Keynote 2014John Newton
US Fed Reserve says that productivity growth been declining in the 21st Century and IT has not necessarily been the solution. In Europe, growth has stalled completely and economies are facing the prospect of deflation. Business and operational models from the 20th Century no longer scale as we face exponential growth in information, activity and connections. We no longer give workers the scope or space to get work done. Waste and ad hoc process are killing us. We must reorganise how the company works and the way we do work. We must eliminate the waste of unnecessary paperwork, busy work and communication by digitising, automating and measuring that work into a Digital Enterprise. We must allow The Digital Enterprise will integrate information, processes, work and people to collaborate more efficiently and effectively to produce more valuable products and services.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions.

The endpoint is the new perimeter
For today’s enterprise organizations, corporate endpoints (desktops, laptops, mobile devices and servers) are numerous and diverse. Many are mobile, and thus frequently used outside the protective perimeter while connecting various public networks make them highly susceptible to attacks. To compound matters, endpoints drift regularly (by nature of their usage) from a standard configuration and often host outdated, vulnerable applications.
Endpoints ultimately present a highly vulnerable attack surface to hackers and nation states seeking to gain access to sensitive information or cause damage to the organization.
The endpoint is the new perimeter
For today’s enterprise organizations, corporate endpoints (desktops, laptops, mobile devices and servers) are numerous and diverse. Many are mobile, and thus frequently used outside the protective perimeter while connecting various public networks make them highly susceptible to attacks. To compound matters, endpoints drift regularly (by nature of their usage) from a standard configuration and often host outdated, vulnerable applications.
Endpoints ultimately present a highly vulnerable attack surface to hackers and nation states seeking to gain access to sensitive information or cause damage to the organization.
THE THREAT LANDSCAPE TODAY IS MUCH MORE THAN FILE-BASED MALWARE
Enterprise organizations collectively face billions of highly sophisticated attacks across multiple vectors—not just le-based malware. In fact, even the malware that AV would normally catch is often altered and packaged in ways that make it appear new or benign, allowing it to completely evade detection. Common techniques include using polymorphic malware, packers and wrappers. Threat prevention by static methods alone provides little protection.
Threats are also specifically designed to infiltrate the organization and slip past security, using one-of-a-kind polymorphic malware and obfuscation techniques to avoid detection. Once inside, they set up command and control (C&C) communications, open backdoors, and steal data, resulting in substantial financial loss and reputation damage.
Malware
Ransomware, trojans, worms, backdoors
File-less / Memory-based malware
Exploits
Document-based exploits: Office doc exploits, Adobe macros, spearphishing e-mails
Browser-based exploits: Drive-by downloads, Flash, Java, iFrame/HTML5 plug-ins
Live / Insider attacks
Script-based: Powershell, Powersploit, WMI, VBS
Credentials: credential-scraping, Mimikatz, tokens
Traditional scan-based AV vendors that are bolting on anti-exploit and HIPS to bolster their solutions and extend their longevity, but are only succeeding in increasing CapEx and OpEx
Traditional EDR like Carbon Black, and CrowdStrike, but both require specialized engineers with 24/7 eye-on-console security operations center, again it comes with its own CapEx and OpEx
New scan-based Predictive Analysis scanning the file system and then storing metadata on powerful cloud-based server to use complex mathematics to statistically predict the existence of malware. This model is also unsustainable in the long term, and fundamentally, statistics (percentages) become meaningless when dealing with millions of malware that can each be varied at least a million different ways.
But what if we took what we know about Tools, Techniques, Procedures (TTPs) of perpetrators, abstracted that into an algorithm, and weighted it based on context? Ladies and gentlemen, I believe next generation endpoint protection has arrived!
The agent has minimalist local resources
Does not need a connection to a server
It reports its state in detail
Empowers the security practitioner to make a decision without specialized knowledge
Enables the administrator to quarantine, mitigate, and rollback possible damage
From the endpoint device perspective, the threat execution lifecycle can be divided into three phases: pre-execution, on execution and post-execution.
PRE-EXECUTION: STATIC PREVENTION, WHITELISTING AND BLACKLISTINGAny file-based malware can be prevented from executing on a target endpoint device—provided that the attack code has been previously detected and can be identi ed upfront as a known threat. This is the essence of legacy antivirus software; its ability to block known threats from executing by directly matching a threat to signatures that exist within the antivirus software’s management layer.
More recently, organizations have begun supplementing the shortcomings of their antivirus software by deploying whitelisting and blacklisting technology as an additional layer of protection. These techniques combine to form a brute force method of gating which applications are allowed to run on a particular endpoint device. This form of prevention is an effective means of significantly shrinking the organization’s overall attack surface, and makes hackers and cybercriminals work harder (and spend more money) to penetrate the organization’s IT infrastructure via the endpoint.
By today’s standards, pre-execution protection should be considered table stakes for any approach to securing the endpoint.
ON EXECUTION: DYNAMIC DETECTION OF ADVANCED MALWARE AND EXPLOITSThe execution phase is where an unknown threat (often a carefully wrapped or altered variant of a known threat) escapes initial detection and begins to execute on the endpoint device. It is during execution where continuous analysis of system activity is performed in order to identify malicious behavior. Detection of advanced malware and exploits by dynamic methods was first pioneered by network-based sandbox technologies which emulate endpoints and execute suspicious content with the goal of trying to identify new, never-before-seen, threats. As new threats are detected, signatures are created and distributed to the perimeter firewall with the hopes that they can be blocked during pre-execution from that point forward.
Increasingly, organizations are adding new, behavior-based endpoint security solutions to prevent advanced threats that aren’t detected at the network level. These solutions focus on the real-time identification of malicious behaviors used by malware, exploits and stealthier script-based attacks. This is achieved by monitoring all system level activities from the kernel space on up, forming context to allow for the quick identification and isolation of malicious patterns that are linked to a new threat. These new solutions have proven to be more effective against advanced threats and are increasingly used as a replacement to antivirus.
It is also important to note that the depth and extensiveness of activity monitoring on the endpoint device determines the practicality of any forensics information that can be rendered. This is key ingredient to successful post-execution processes.
POST-EXECUTION: MITIGATION, REMEDIATION AND FORENSIC ANALYSISOnce an attack successfully executes on one or more endpoints, the organization remains vulnerable until security personnel can fully mitigate it, stopping its lateral spread and eliminating it from affected devices. Many technologies today are focused on identifying and alerting to the existence of a threat. This sends incident response personnel into a scramble, armed with a combination of mitigation and forensics tools and manual procedures through which attempts at finding and quarantining infected systems are made. Sometimes, expert security consultants are called in (at a considerable expense) when internal teams need assistancewith mitigation, remediating affected files, or generating and interpreting forensic data. Ultimately, the most effective response is one where attack mitigation and remediation are executed immediately, at the initial point of detection. This is validated through Gartner’s Adaptive Security Architecture, and has been adopted by a few pioneers who are integrating detection, prevention and response for a more complete approach.
SUMMARY
Pre-execution measures reduce the overall attack surface by blocking known threats and gating which applications are allowed to run
Sophisticated threats can be detected via dynamic behavioral tracking and analysis, performed as the suspicious process executes (ON execution)
When a threat is detected, the organization is still widely vulnerable until the threat can be fully neutralized, making machine-speed mitigation and remediation critical.
Reducing vulnerability to evolving new threats requires understanding the full context of each new attack through precise and detailed forensics

SentinelOne deploys across Windows, OS X and Linux-based endpoints, delivering superior threat protection for physical, virtual, and cloud-based computing environments with a single platform.
Easily deploy across enterprise-scale environments.
Deploy SentinelOne as an on-premise or as a cloud-based service to protect Windows, OS X and Linux-based endpoints.
There are many options available to organizations seeking to build a comprehensive endpoint protection strategy, however any piecemeal approach involving a collection of point solutions will always translate to higher management and interoperability complexity.
Although personnel costs and IT infrastructure performance impact will vary considerably from organization to organization, a consolidated approach leveraging a platform that both protects against all major threat vectors and provides full endpoint visibility and response capabilities is the best choice. It not only minimizes costs associated with management and infrastructure complexity, but it delivers more value on a per-endpoint basis than multiple tools, whose functionality can overlap.
In a recent analysis, the license and management costs for the piecemeal endpoint security approach amounted to over 4x the total cost of ownership of the solution based on the SentinelOne Endpoint Protection Platform.
SentinelOne delivers exceptional value; it protects the endpoint from the broadest set of threat vectors (file-based and file-less malware, advanced exploits, and insider and script-based attacks). Furthermore, it enables full visibility into endpoint activity, and delivers detailed forensics in real-time.
Certifications: PCI DSS 3.1 (2016) and HIPAA (2016)
