Tineola: Taking A Bite Out of Enterprise BlockchainPriyanka Aash
"Blockchain adaptation has reached a fever pitch, andthe community is late to the game of securing these platforms against attack. With the open source community enamored with the success of Ethereum, the enterprise community has been quietly building the next generation of distributed trustless applications on permissioned blockchain technologies. As of early 2018, an estimated half of these blockchain projects relied on the Hyperledger Fabric platform.
In this talk we will discuss tools and techniques attackers can use to target Fabric. To this end we are demoing and releasing a new attack suite, Tineola, capable of performing network reconnaissance of a Hyperledger deployment, adding evil network peers to this deployment, using existing trusted peers for lateral network movement with reverse shells, and fuzzing application code deployed on Fabric.
As George Orwell said: ""Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past."" This talk will demonstrate how a sufficiently armed red team can modify the blockchain past to control our digital future."

Digital transformation remains a major C-suite focus, naturally.
And for the CIO that translates into a long list of focus areas.
For a long time, businesses have used IT service providers to augment skills and resources internally.
In our research, 74% of VP-level decision makers say that using IT services is essential to their success.
And 54% say they actively plan to increase their use of IT services in the year ahead.
70% of IT spend is on maintenance and only 30% is on innovation (Gartner)
Due to the increasingly threats, complexities and pressure, IT departments’ mindsets are to keep things working rather than focusing on innovation inside of IT due to a lack of skills and knowledge.
IT departments can move from the defensive a more offensive strategy by partnering with Service vendors that take more of a predictive view and leverage automation to ultimately accelerate innovation.
Automation doesn’t displace the IT team, rather it allows them to focus on the things they want to spend time on (the 30 percent).
And as CIOs set out to pursue those areas of investment to realise their digital transformation objectives, one thing comes up time and again as the biggest barrier is the technical skills gap.
We’ve surpassed a tipping point: the IT talent gap is not going away, ever. Rather than trying to eliminate it, leading organizations are focusing on how best to manage the perpetual gap brought about by the rapid pace of innovation and disruption that characterizes all industries.
While organizations worldwide have acknowledged the digital skills and knowledge gap, the industry’s best efforts to fix it over the past decade — STEM training, reskilling, automation — have fallen short.
The IT talent gap is real. It takes >100 days to fill any number of different positions in hot areas like cybersecurity or cloud, AI or big data, and salaries have grown along with demand.
According to IDC's 2017 Global Digital Transformational (DX) Leader Survey, a lack of digital skills in the organization was cited as the single largest challenge to successfully implement digital transformation. Companies seeking to implement digital transformation are creatively looking to other sources of talent to enable their digital strategies.
IT is one of the most challenging roles to fill globally. There is a shortage of talent in key areas such as IT, network architecture, security and automation — critical technical roles for which CIOs need qualified professionals.
There is a significant risk that some CIOs and IT departments will fall further behind if they cannot properly address this critical skills shortage, putting their organizations in peril of losing their competitiveness.
Data Points
According to the IDC Worldwide Digital leader survey, 69% of respondents stated they lacked the right people, knowledge, and technology to transform.
70% of IT networking teams believe programming and scripting skills are must. But only 15% of the IT networking talent has these skills today. (source: Cisco Survey)
According to projections, global cybersecurity workforce will have more than 1.5 million unfilled positions by 2020. (source: Frost & Sullivan)
“Today’s digital skills and knowledge gap is growing into tomorrow’s talent epidemic.”
“As this year’s many data breaches reveal, we need more digital skills and knowledge in the workforce.”
“IT has reached a tipping point; companies need to look at outside resources that leverage AI and automation or risk being left behind.”
Companies must take a much more strategic view of what IT service providers can give them as part of a multi-sourcing model, using external IT providers and their partner ecosystems as an integral part of their plans.
IT service providers give companies access to:
Broad, collective expertise: honed through experience with many different customers and technologies. But it’s not just about the singular employee.
Quality and results: with the most mature methodologies and mature processes, the necessary certifications — and a depth of experience from a huge number of engagements.
Innovation: not just individual creativity, but billions in R&D and access to the insights that unique large-scale data sets can generate.
Flexibility: the ability to engage in all kinds of ways: fixed project, annual contract, to scale up and down, engage globally 24x7, even access their skills and resources through self-service. And they can often give you access to a huge ecosystem of partners to best fit your needs.
Education and training: both through informal knowledge transfer during a project, and through formal training, onboarding and documentation.
And all that investment has paid off.
We’ve achieved an unprecedented 11 years straight of JD Power Certifications for excellence in customer service, and 30+ TSIA Star wins.
Three quarters of the Fortune 100 choose us, as well as dozens of countries and cities that work with us on digitisation.
We’ve trained and certified 3 million professionals, and 80% consider Cisco certified staff more valuable and knowledgeable than individuals who hold another certification.
And it’s made us a stable, profitable $12 billion business with loyal customers.
The key to our value is that we’re there for our customers at every stage of their project.
The services we offer sit in six buckets across the IT lifecycle:
Advisory services: Architect a strategy to use technology to achieve business goals
Implementation services: Integrate new systems and software
Optimization services: Extract value by simplifying and securing the IT environment
Managed services: Shift focus to strategic activities to innovate and transform faster
Technical services: Ensure IT works simply, consistently, and securely
Training services: Develop talent truly capable of transforming businesses
And we offer services across all six of the technology “architectures” that Cisco offers, as well as the solution areas we offer for service providers
So we’re there for them, whether they’re looking to chart a course to cloud, understand what the Intuitive networking capabilities mean for their business, design and test an IoT pilot, implement next-generation firewalls, optimize their usage of collaboration tools, manage their data centers, support their entire organization globally and consistently, or train their staff in security fundamentals.
It’s important to note that we’re extending services across business critical technology silos…wireless, security, etc. Every customer has a heterogeneous environment and that Cisco can seamlessly manage it all.
Don’t forget third-party support as part of solution support, and the fact that in key areas like security services we’re truly vendor-neutral.
The next stage of evolution is here
We are introducing two key service portfolios: Cisco Business Critical Services and High-Value Services
The next stage of evolution is here
We are introducing key service portfolios: Cisco Business Critical Services
You may be familiar with our Optimization Services portfolio, which we’ve offered for more than ten years.
In one sentence, optimization is about making sure that a company’s technology infrastructure runs well, delivers value, and stays current with the changing needs of the organization.
We started out with our Networking Optimization Services (NOS) and then as we added new architectures, we added another optimization service. Today, we have some customers who have seven different Optimization Services and seven different delivery experiences. But although our structure might not have been optimal, customers have received huge value from our Services.
In fact, through a recent IDC Business Value Study 2017, we discovered that our customers have been experiencing some very impactful results with Cisco’s Optimization Services – reduced downtime by 74% and OpEx by 21%, increased efficiency by 30% and as much as 262% ROI over a 5-year span.
But customers have asked for help digitizing their current operations and transforming to new technologies that could drive their business forward.
So we built upon the success of our Optimization Services with new innovations designed to speed value, and a streamlined offer that goes across architectures. We’ve also organized our service capabilities in a transformational framework that aligns to targeted customer outcomes at each stage of their journey.
Today, we are introducing a new portfolio of subscription-based services, called Cisco Business Critical Services that delivers a consistent service experience.
Business Critical Services empowers customers through a transformational framework.
In one sentence, what does business critical do and how does it do it?
Business Critical applies actionable analytics, automation, compliance and world-class technology expertise to help our customers predict opportunities, preempt risks, and navigate technology transitions. This strategy is used across architectures to drive a consistent experience regardless of what technology is involved.
We continue from our one sentence definition by learning where a customer is in their transformational maturity. Then, we apply our framework to recommend the service capabilities that map to one of three critical business and operational goals:
Achieve cost efficiency and compliance
Accelerate business agility
Set their transformation agenda
This all culminates in enabling customers to achieve a secure, efficient and agile environment across architectures.
We’ve added new service innovations to help our customers optimize continually and transformation journey.
Analytics
Now, customers can receive near real-time analytics through the Business Critical Insights portal, powered by an Artificial Intelligence engine. We’ve shared analytics with our customers in the past through manual report pulls and large 50+ page reports delivered once or twice a quarter to customers. The information was too overwhelming and too old to be perceived as impactful to customers. With this new AI engine and cloud-based portal, Customers can easily monitor KPIs, trends, correlations, benchmarking, and anomaly detection with ease. In addition, one of our experts will help them prioritize recommendations from this new portal.
Automation
We are helping customers automate critical tasks through new automation tools that automate TAC case submissions, predict issues and alert customers, and create testing environments up to 7x faster.
Compliance and Remediation as part of Business Critical Services enables the achievement of successful outcomes by implementing our recommendations, automatically. We are able to automate audits and associated remediation for software upgrades, large configuration projects, and regulatory as well as industry standard compliance.
Security protects against threats
Our security offers more than an infrastructure; it’s a smart and holistic protection for your business, your customers, and your brand. We added Incident Reponses as a baseline to help start and drive security conversations and to help you ensure a secure customer experience.
The results have been dramatic.
Global Entertainment Company
Wi-Fi Analytics
An Entertainment customer was looking to provide always-on connectivity for fans to create broader fan engagement and new revenue-generating services. However, problems with connectivity made it impossible to accomplish these goals. So we provided them with several AS services including Wi-Fi analytics which allowed them to closely monitor their network so they could predict issues and preempt issues before they could affect the Fan Experience. Stability in the network improved significantly and they were able to improve in venue services like ticket scanning and develop new revenue streams like Wi-Fi onboarding advertisements. Improved satisfaction by enabling a unique experience for fans.
Service Provider
Automated Fault Management
Research shows that a huge portion of technology issues/downtime are due to human error. The story was no different for one of our large service providers. They asked our Cisco Optimization team to help them try to improve the situation. A little over a year ago we developed a new Cisco service we’re now calling Automated Fault Management that uses Signatures to identify known issues the minute they happen and log a case with the TAC and our customer’s NOC without any human intervention. But we went a step further and created predictive Signatures as well that send notifications on potential issues so they can preempt problems before they can affect their business. We’ve been able to significantly reduce case submission times without the customer having to lift a finger. The customer now has 25% of all of their cases being automatically submitted – saving time, money, and decreasing downtime.
Service Provider
