VIPER Labs - VOIP Security - SANS SummitShah Sheikh
The document discusses penetration testing of VoIP networks. It describes a VoIP security research lab that investigates attack vectors against VoIP systems. When conducting internal VoIP assessments, the objectives are to understand the call requirements, VLAN configuration, and gain access to the voice VLAN to test for vulnerabilities. Sniffing tools can reveal the voice VLAN ID and credentials. VLAN hopping poses a risk if an attacker can access the voice VLAN from their PC. A case study found an attacker was able to hop VLANs in a hotel network and potentially monitor other guests' phone calls due to poor network segmentation. Proper firewalling of voice networks and limiting remote access to voice VLANs are important lessons learned.

Security Delivery Platform: Best practicesMihajlo Prerad
Security Delivery Platform: Best practices
The traditional Security model was one that operated under simple assumptions. Those assumptions led to deployment models which in todays’ world of cyber security have been proven to be quite vulnerable and inadequate to growing amount and diversity of threats.
A Security Delivery Platform addresses the above considerations and provides a powerful solution for deploying a diverse set of security solutions, as well as scaling each security solution beyond traditional deployments. Such platform delivers visibility into the lateral movement of malware, accelerate the detection of ex-filtration activity, and could significantly reduce the overhead, complexity and costs associated with such security deployments.
In today’s world of industrialized and well-organized cyber threats, it is no longer sufficient to focus on the security applications exclusively. Focusing on how those solutions get deployed together and how they get consistent access to relevant data is a critical piece of the solution. A Security Delivery Platform in this sense is a foundational building block of any cyber security strategy.
The idea of a more connected world is an exciting prospect. The proliferation of Internet-enabled cars, appliances, medical devices, thermostats, and so on has already changed the way we live and will only continue grow. Unfortunately, these devices are expanding an already large attack surface, and cybercriminals are eager to exploit them.
If we do not prepare for this influx of new, specialized devices on our networks, the Internet of Things (IoT) will leave gaping holes in our cybersecurity practices. But securing these many devices is a daunting task for even the bravest security professional.
Join Keith Wilson of Cisco Security for a webinar to discuss the security challenges related to IoT. Topics covered include:
-Why IoT devices can be difficult to secure
-Industries already affected by this trend such as health care, manufacturing, financial services and retail
-The various approaches to securing these devices
-How you can best keep IoT devices from becoming a security liability
Combating Insider Threats – Protecting Your Agency from the Inside OutLancope, Inc.
Whether they realize it or not, all enterprises have valuable data to protect. Credit card information, trade secrets, and patient data, for example, are all prime targets for cyber criminals.
You can reduce risk to your sensitive data through the use of compliance/segmentation monitoring. But what happens when malicious insiders or external attackers bypass these controls?
Join Lancope’s Consulting Security Architect, Charles Herring, to learn how network behavioral anomaly detection (NBAD) and deep visibility through NetFlow can be used to quickly alert administrators to these violations. Discover how to detect anomalies such as data hoarding and data loss to more effectively safeguard your crown jewels.
While the current threat landscape is full of sophisticated and well-resourced adversaries, one of the most dangerous is the insider because they already have access to the sensitive data on your network.
According to a report from Forrester Research, nearly half of technology decision makers who experienced a data breach in the year studied reported that an internal incident was the source of their compromise.
Since firewalls and perimeter defenses are largely incapable of addressing insider threats, organizations must turn to internal network monitoring and analytics to identify threats based on their behavior.
Join us for a free webinar on the Five Signs You Have an Insider Threat to learn what to look for to protect your organization from this challenging attack type. The webinar will cover topics including:
- Insider threat prevalence
- Major signs of insider threat activity
- How to detect these signs
- How to identify an insider threat before they impact your organization
Detecting Threats: A Look at the Verizon DBIR and StealthWatchLancope, Inc.
A common theme in data breach investigations is the deficit between the time it takes an attacker to compromise a system and the time it takes for the defender to detect the attack. In many cases, victim organizations do not know they have been breached for weeks or months after the initial compromise, while attackers can gain access in a matter of minutes or hours.
The StealthWatch® System can drastically reduce the time to identify threats, giving security personnel a window of opportunity to mitigate an attack before valuable data is lost. This webinar will cover how StealthWatch quickly detects a variety of malicious activity, using threat information from the Verizon 2015 Data Breach Investigations Report as a backdrop.
Participants will learn how StealthWatch can quickly detect:
- Crimeware
- Insider threats
- Point-of-sale (POS) intrusions
- Cyber-espionage

On today's increasingly militarized Internet, companies, non-profits, activists, and individual hackers are forced to melee with nation-state class adversaries. Just as one should never bring a knife to a gunfight, a network defender should not rely on tired maxims such as “perimeter defense” and “defense in depth”. Today’s adversaries are well past that. This webinar provides:
- Key insights into what we call the Library of Sparta - the collective written expertise codified into military doctrine. Hidden in plain sight, vast free libraries contain the time-tested wisdom of combat at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels.
- Better understanding on how adversaries will target your organization, and it will help you to employ military processes and strategies in your defensive operations.
- Provide you with new approaches and examples about how to translate and employ doctrinal concepts in your current operations.
SCADA Security: The Five Stages of Cyber GriefLancope, Inc.
Every time a new information technology finds its way into production, it seems as though we end up repeating the same process – security vulnerabilities will be discovered and disclosed in that technology, and users and vendors will deny that the risks are significant. Only after major attacks occur do we really start to see efforts to address the inherent risks in a systematic way.
We’re falling into this exact same trap again with Industrial Control and SCADA systems, but in this case the problem is worse, because the inherent nature of control systems prevents us from applying many of the strategies that have been used to protect other kinds of computer networks.
Join Lancope’s Director of Security Research, Tom Cross, for a look at the five stages of grief that organizations seem to pass through as they come to terms with security risks, and how far we’ve come regarding Industrial Control Systems.
Hear about:
The state of Control Systems security vulnerabilities
Attack activity that is prompting a change in perspective
The unique, long-term challenges associated with protecting SCADA networks
How anomaly detection can play a key role in protecting SCADA systems now
Signature detection of attacks requires an understanding of what is “bad” traffic. Unfortunately, advanced attackers are crafting innovative and persistent attacks that create a new brand of “bad” that has no signature. Today’s organizations must instead embrace more forward-thinking security measures such as behavioral analysis in order to identify threats that bypass conventional defenses.
Join this complimentary webinar to learn how real-world breaches over the last couple of years were detected by looking at traffic deviating from normal patterns via metadata/NetFlow analysis.
Discover how:
- Sophisticated attackers are bypassing conventional, signature-based security solutions
- NetFlow analysis can detect both known and unknown threats by identifying anomalous behaviors that could signify an attack
- Leveraging flow data can significantly improve threat detection, incident response and network forensics
Protecting Financial Networks from Cyber CrimeLancope, Inc.
Financial services organizations are prime targets for cyber criminals. They must take extreme care to protect customer data, while also ensuring high levels of network availability to allow for 24/7 access to critical financial information. Additionally, industry consolidation has created large, heterogeneous network environments within large financial institutions, making it difficult to ensure that networks have the necessary visibility and protection to prevent a devastating security breach. By leveraging NetFlow from existing network infrastructure, financial services organizations can achieve comprehensive visibility across even the largest, most complex networks. The ability to quickly detect a wide range of potentially malicious activity helps prevent damaging data breaches and network disruptions. Attend this informational webinar, conducted by Lancope’s Director of Security Research, Tom Cross, to learn: How NetFlow can help quickly uncover both internal and external threats How pervasive network insight can accelerate incident response and forensic investigations How to substantially decrease enterprise risks
SCADA Security: The Five Stages of Cyber GriefLancope, Inc.
The document summarizes the five stages of grief experienced by organizations when they realize their critical infrastructure systems are connected to the internet and vulnerable to cyber attacks: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. It provides examples to illustrate why each stage occurs, such as discoveries of thousands of exposed SCADA and ICS devices online using tools like SHODAN, high-profile attacks like Stuxnet targeting critical infrastructure systems, and challenges of keeping outdated systems patched against emerging threats. The document argues organizations must ultimately accept the interconnected nature of systems and find new ways to design and manage critical infrastructure that are more secure and resilient to cyber attacks.
Reverse Engineering Malware: A look inside Operation TovarLancope, Inc.
Join us as we step through the reverse engineering of CryptoLocker, identifying important functionality and weaknesses. We'll demonstrate how we were able to use this information to help protect our customers months ago, the weaknesses that the Department of Justice took advantage of, and how you can do the same for other types of malware down the line.
Needs of a Modern Incident Response ProgramLancope, Inc.
The document discusses the needs of a modern incident response program. It notes that attackers have the advantage of asymmetry, as defenders must protect all vulnerabilities while attackers only need to find one. It argues that incident response programs need to move towards continuous monitoring and detection across all stages of an attack's kill chain, from reconnaissance to data exfiltration. This would allow defenders to detect and respond to threats earlier in the attack process.
The document discusses securing data centers from cyber threats. It describes how attacks have evolved from manual to mechanized to sophisticated human-led attacks. It advocates employing segmentation, threat defense and visibility measures like firewalls, IDS/IPS, and NetFlow. The Cisco Cyber Threat Defense solution places these tools at the access, aggregation and core layers, including the ASA firewall, Nexus switches, and StealthWatch for network monitoring and analytics. This provides visibility into network traffic across physical and virtual infrastructure to detect threats and policy violations.
This document discusses insider threats and strategies for detecting and preventing them. It outlines that while most breaches are caused by external attackers, insiders still cause significant damage in some cases. It describes the different types of insider threats and notes that prevention and detection require logs of network activity as well as a multidisciplinary approach. Specific tools like StealthWatch can provide network visibility and user identity integration to help identify suspicious insider behavior like data exfiltration or hoarding.
The Critical Security Controls and the StealthWatch SystemLancope, Inc.
This document summarizes an expert webcast on the Critical Security Controls and the StealthWatch system. John Pescatore from SANS discussed the Critical Security Controls and how they help prioritize security efforts. Charles Herring from Lancope then discussed how the StealthWatch system provides network visibility through NetFlow monitoring and can help implement several of the Critical Security Controls through boundary defense, threat detection, incident response, and secure network engineering capabilities. The webcast concluded with a question and answer session.

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.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
