BeyondCorp is Google's approach to access management that eliminates the need for a VPN. It is based on zero-trust principles where access is granted based on who the user is and what device they are using rather than which network they connect from. Google implemented dynamic access policies that consider user identity, device security properties, and request context to determine access in real-time. The key aspects of BeyondCorp include redefining corporate identity as the user and device, making access decisions based on their current attributes and state, removing trust from networks by centralizing access controls, and issuing short-lived credentials to authenticate users and devices securely. The document provides guidance on starting with BeyondCorp by taking inventories, defining access use cases as job stories

Gavin Hill - Lessons From the Human Immune Systemcentralohioissa
All signs point to a future world of more complex, harder to detect cyber threats. Our adversaries are exploiting what seems to be our strengths. Intel predicts the next big hacker marketplace to be in the sale of digital certificates – already selling for more than $1000 each on Russian marketplaces. Gartner expects 50% of network attacks to use encrypted SSL/TLS in less than 2 years. What’s to do? The human immune system has evolved to defend and destroy complex and oftentimes overwhelming attacks. What can we learn from it? How can we create a future that’s more resistant as we use more software, more clouds, more apps, and more connected devices.
Timothy Wright & Stephen Halwes - Finding the Needle in the Hardware – Identi...centralohioissa
During this talk we will be discussing hardware reverse engineering and why this is becoming a new way for attackers to compromise company networks. We will discuss how vendors are now leaving potentially malicious code within firmware and how some attackers could exploit these vulnerabilities. We will also discuss why it is important for companies to spend time reviewing hardware for vulnerabilities prior to deploying the systems within your company’s network and outlining a process on how to perform this work.
The presenters will outline each phase of the hardware reverse engineering assessment, outlining how to exploit various vulnerabilities that you may discover and provide a list the software and tools that will be needed to support this work. Finally we will talk about how you should be documenting your findings for management and how to properly disclose the findings to the vendor once the test has been completed.
What are the key challenges and opportunities ahead with cloud security? And what happens when you don't have a security strategy in place? Learn how organizations can leverage cloud for better security.
Bil Harmer - Myths of Cloud Security Debunked!centralohioissa
Despite the meteoric rise of cloud based applications and services, as well as its subsequent adoption by a significant number of enterprises, security still remains a major concern for many organizations. The elephant in the room is the misconception that the cloud is less secure than on-premise capabilities. Gartner eloquently describes this as “more of a trust issue than based on any reasonable analysis of actual security capabilities”.
A recent global study by BT revealed that 76% of large organizations cited security as their main concern for using cloud-based services. 49% admitted being “very” or “extremely anxious” about the security complications of these services. However according to Gartner, the reality is “most breaches continue to involve on-premises data center environments”
Where do you stand on this issue?
In this talk. we will debunk the top myths of cloud security, including:
Myth 1: We don’t really use the cloud
Myth 2: I lose control of my data when it goes to the cloud
Myth 3: Cloud is less secure than on-premise solutions
Myth 4: I’m at the mercy of cloud vendors for patching
Myth 5: Appliances provide greater control over
scalability/performance
Myth 6: Cloud security is more difficult to manage
Myth 7: Cloud resources are more exposed to attack
Myth 8: Multi-Tenant Clouds Expose Privacy Concerns
Myth 9: Cloud vendors lack transparency

What is the cost of freely available OSS?
In this talk we will explore the activities that are involved with successful Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, and Continuous Deployment. We’ll do this by discussing how traditional software security activities like SAST, DAST, manual code reviews, and ethical hacking work together and independently to strengthen your program.
5 Steps to a Zero Trust Network - From Theory to PracticeAlgoSec
A Zero Trust network abolishes the quaint idea of a “trusted” internal network demarcated by a corporate perimeter. Instead it advocates microperimeters of control and visibility around the enterprise’s most sensitive data assets and the ways in which the enterprise uses its data to achieve its business objectives.
In this webinar, guest speaker John Kindervag, Vice President and Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, and Nimmy Reichenberg, VP of Strategy at AlgoSec will explain why a Zero Trust network should be the foundation of your security strategy, and present best practices to help companies achieve a Zero Trust state.
The webinar will cover:
• What is a Zero Trust network, and why it should be a core component of your threat detection and response strategy
• Turning theory into practice: Five steps to achieve Zero Trust information security
• How security policy management can help you define and enforce a Zero Trust network
Simplifying Security Management in the Virtual Data CenterAlgoSec
As enterprise data centers evolve to private and hybrid clouds, orchestration and automation are key to unleashing business agility.
But for most organizations, managing security and application connectivity involves manual, time-consuming processes that are error-prone and slow down the business. Complex application connectivity requirements, bloated firewall policies, poor processes and lack of communication between application developers, network and security teams create business disruptions and expose organizations to risk.
Join AlgoSec and guest Forrester Research to learn how organizations can automate security operations in the data center to manage security at the speed of business. By attending you will learn:
* How the concept of Zero Trust enables the business and minimizes risk
* Why management is the new backplane and security policy orchestration is critical in virtual environments
* How to ensure security policy accuracy throughout data center migration and consolidation projects
* How to securely deploy, maintain and decommission connectivity for data center applications
What is zero trust model of information security?Ahmed Banafa
The Zero Trust Model of information security simplifies how information security is conceptualized by assuming there are no longer “trusted” interfaces, applications, traffic, networks, or users. It takes the old model—“trust but verify”—and inverts it, because recent breaches have proven that when an organization trusts, it doesn’t verify. (Forrester)

Robert Hurlbut - Threat Modeling for Secure Software Designcentralohioissa
Threat modeling is a way of thinking about what could go wrong and how to prevent it. Instinctively, we all think this way in regards to our own personal security and safety. When it comes to building software, some software shops either skip the important step of threat modeling in secure software design or, they have tried threat modeling before but haven't quite figured out how to connect the threat models to real world software development and its priorities. In this session, you will learn practical strategies in using threat modeling in secure software design and how to apply risk management in dealing with the threats.
The era of cloud and mobility has changed the way we work and transformed the internet into the transport network for most enterprises. Even so, many continue to rely on security technologies designed for the old world, when users and data were on the network and applications were housed in the data center.
ESG believes that the challenge of using legacy security methods in the cloud era will be a key catalysts for the adoption of a new user- and application-centric approach known as zero trust security. The zero trust model is enabled by the software-defined perimeter (SDP), delivering secure anywhere access to internal applications without the use of VPN technology.
With all the hype around Cloud and SDN, business decision makers are finding themselves trying to navigate through many new concepts and consequently needing to change the way they have traditionally selected their IT infrastructure. Technologies are now becoming more integrated and it is more important than ever to help your business be agile enough to keep up with the demands of your users and your customers. Come hear from Lisa Guess to learn how organizations can embrace Cloud technologies such as automation, SDN and Orchestration platforms to help you build next-generation networks.
This slide deck served as presentation material for the talk with the same name at the 2021 COSAC security architecture conference.
It provides an architecture for applying zero trust networking on Amazon Web Services (AWS). We take a pragmatic approach to ensure that we link the theoretical components to implementation candidates. This relies on application of graph theory to establish traceability, which we can subsequently use to verify the logical integrity of the architecture. Our literature review indicates that the first imperative is to establish a reference model that describes zero-trust networking. The zero-trust reference model is subsequently mapped to relevant AWS services that realizes the components. This establishes traceability in terms of implementation requirements for each service. We see as part of this review that AWS is mature in its ability to support zero trust capabilities and that we can realize many aspects of zero trust using off-the-shelf AWS services. The correct configuration of these services however is crucial. The research is useful in providing solution architects with the logical components that can drive further stages in architecture development to support zero trust initiatives on AWS tenants.

Securing ap is oauth and fine grained access controlAaronLieberman5
API security is always a major consideration, but most API developers feel like they are not equipped with the skills necessary to properly secure an API.
In this presentation, we will talk about how some common API gateway security mechanisms can work effectively to secure a MuleSoft API. We will start with key concepts of API security such as zero trust, OAuth 2.0, and access control. Then, we will demonstrate a secure method to protect your APIs using OAuth 2.0 and token introspection to achieve access control on a MuleSoft API. The solution will demonstrate how to use the combination of MuleSoft security policies and a powerful identity provider in PingFederate by Ping Identity to achieve API security on MuleSoft APIs.
No API security session is complete without discussing different methods of API security and lessons learned from working through the demo so we will close with discussing various options that can be used to achieve similar results for API security and what the benefits or downfalls are of each option.
Security Testing is a process to determine how well a system protects against unauthorized internal or external access or wilful damage. It is performed to check whether there is any information leakage in the sense by encrypting the application or using wide range of software etc..

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

3. All Too Common Behaviors
● Sharing/committing passwords and keys
● Not revoking credentials when employees leave
● Giving contractors too much privileged access
● Connecting to resources using unpatched devices
● Not logging and/or monitoring user activity
● Not assigning role based access controls
4. Google Got it Right With BeyondCorp
1 Connecting from a particular network must not determine which services you can access
2 Access to services is granted based on what we know about you and your device
3 All access to services must be authenticated, authorized, and encrypted

from untrusted networks without the use of a VPN
7. Redefine Corporate Identity
Is the user in good standing with the company?
Does the user belong to the Engineering org?
Is the user on Team A working on feature X?
Is the device in inventory?
Is the device’s disk encrypted?
Is the device’s OS up to date?
Identity = You + Your Device at a Point-in-Time
8. Make Smarter Decisions in Context
“You can’t submit source code from an
unpatched device”
“You can only reach the company wiki
from a managed device”
“Your disk must be encrypted to access
the confidential file repository”
“You can view the corporate phone
directory from any device”
Real-time trust attestation based on dynamic conditions
9. Remove Trust From the Network
Access
Controls
Why the request was denied
request context
NO
YES
Access
Policies
AuthN AuthZ
Centralize access controls at Layer 7 where policy can be enforced
10. Eliminate Static Credentials
➔ Issue short-lived client certificates or web
tokens to initiate secure sessions
➔ Inject metadata about the user and connecting
device into the credential
➔ Limit each credential in scope and time,
making it near impossible to hijack
Dynamic attestation needs a dynamic credential to match
12. The Discovery Phase
1 Take an inventory of all employee devices - workstations, laptops, tablets, and phones
2 Take an inventory of all company resources to protect - apps, databases, servers, etc.
3 Take an inventory of all static credentials - shared passwords, ssh keys, etc.
4 Diagram your system architecture and inspect traffic logs to understand behavior
5 Monitor device state - is the software up to date? Is the disk encrypted?
13. Write Job Stories for Your Use Cases
Alice - Build Engineer
When a release is ready, I want to login to the build
server over ssh, so I can inspect the build logs.
Bob - Recruiter
When I arrive at the office in the morning, I want to login
to the ATS, so I can review the day’s applicants.
Behavioral patterns should influence how policies are framed
14. Determine Your Policy Framework
➔ Role based access controls
➔ User attributes
➔ Device state
➔ Location-based rules
➔ Time-based controls
➔ Team federation
➔ Resource specific rules
Trust Tiers
User and device metrics are analyzed and placed in a tier
which must match the minimum tier associated with the
resource
Scoring System
User and device metrics are compiled and granted a
score which must match the minimum level associated
with the resource
Assertions
User and device attributes and state are individually
matched against an Access Policy where all assertions
must be true
16. Where ScaleFT Fits
WEB ACCESS
Manage who has access to what company
web apps through a simple policy-based
framework that authenticates and
authorizes every request in real-time
SERVER ACCESS
Securely connect to Linux and Windows
servers over SSH and RDP through a pure
client certificate architecture that eliminates
the use of static credentials
