How to Rapidly Identify Assets at Risk to WannaCry Ransomware
A major ransomware attack using a leaked NSA exploit known as “WannaCry” has hit more than 150 countries since May 12. More than 200,000 infections globally have been detected and the attack, which uses the WannaCry (WanaCrypt0r 2.0) ransomware, continues to spread.
WannaCry utilizes the ETERNALBLUE exploit targeting newly disclosed vulnerabilities (MS17-010). Once leaked, it took only 28 days for this exploit to be used in a full-scale cyber attack. Organizations that scan for vulnerabilities only monthly or less frequently can still be at risk.
During this webcast (https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/11673/261293) Mark Butler, CISO at Qualys and Jimmy Graham, Director of Product Management for Qualys ThreatPROTECT and AssetView, show you how to:
• Patch and implement other mitigations for WannaCry
• Detect and get full visibility on impacted assets for prompt remediation
• Institute threat-prioritized remediation processes to mitigate current and future risks
Qualys ThreatPROTECT can detect and identify patches for the vulnerabilities being exploited by ETERNALBLUE and shield your organization’s business-critical data from attacks. Sign up for a free 30 day trial and get unlimited scans. https://qualys.com/wannacry-trial

Speaker: Gidi Chen, CEO & Founder Skybox Security
Infosec Europe 2013
In order to effectively reduce the risks of cyber-attacks, comply with continuous monitoring requirements, and provide visibility to executives, organizations need to manage their vulnerabilities and associated risks on an on-going basis. This is required in order to match or exceed the daily rate of attacks. Why bother to assess your risks every 90 days, if you are attacked daily, given your frequently changed infrastructure? The session will tackle next-generation vulnerability management strategies and best practices to: ensure that vulnerability data is current and accurate; prioritize based on risk to the business; develop a remediation strategy that works and make vulnerability management an essential part of daily change management processes.
• Understand how to link vulnerability discovery, risk-based prioritization, and remediation activities to effectively mitigate risks
• Have real-world examples of organizations that implemented vulnerability management best practices to effectively and measurably reduce risk
• Be armed with pragmatic steps to implement next-generation vulnerability management to eliminate risks and prevent cyber attacks
Working effectively on a strategy for data protection
This document discusses creating a strategy for data protection. It suggests taking three steps:
1. Classifying data into categories like sensitive, restricted, and open.
2. Assessing risks like user passwords being stolen or systems being compromised. This includes analyzing the probability and impact of different risks.
3. Building robust yet modular IT systems, automating processes, and continuously assessing risks. Taking a devops approach and using APIs can help make systems more secure and manageable over time.

Trend Micro Keynote: Nightingale Floors: Mitigating Cyber Attacks in 2015
The document discusses strategies for mitigating cyber attacks in 2015. It notes that advanced malware, targeted attacks, and employee data leaks will pose major threats. The cyber arms market offers various hacking services and tools. Elite hackers use complex attack strategies and destroy forensic evidence. Notable attack vectors include watering hole attacks and mobile/cloud app vulnerabilities. The impacts of targeted attacks include strategic costs and career risks. Trends for 2015 include increased iOS malware, web app exploits, cloud attacks, ransomware, and use of destructive payloads in incident response. Effective defenses require advanced malware detection, threat analysis, automated security updates, and command/control monitoring. Risk management strategies include penetration testing, authentication, monitoring, sandboxing, whitelisting,
Malware is NOT Magic
The document discusses the need to rethink approaches to malware threats. It argues that malware is a vector for human attacks rather than a distinct problem, and that organizations should focus on making systems resilient through layered defenses, improved detection capabilities, and tools to ensure trust in software and hardware. The goal is to design systems that can survive a cyber attack without losing critical functions.
Four Network Security Challenges for the Cloud Generation
Users are accessing cloud applications from anywhere at any time, which has expanded the attack surface and made network defenses more difficult. Traditional network protections are overwhelmed by modern threats like encrypted web traffic and 700+ new browser vulnerabilities each year. Half of malware in 2019 will use encryption for delivery, command and control, or data exfiltration, hiding threats from security tools. Symantec Web Security Services provides cloud-based network security that balances security, performance, complexity and cost to address these challenges.

Prevent Getting Hacked by Using a Network Vulnerability Scanner
This document discusses network security recommendations for small to medium businesses. It begins by acknowledging hackers' skills and describes how hacking has evolved over time. It then provides six suggestions for improving network security: 1) update all computers regularly, 2) don't rely solely on WSUS for updates, 3) patching alone is not enough, additional verification is needed, 4) unanticipated hardware/software pose risks, 5) embrace application automation, and 6) use a single integrated solution for management. It promotes GFI LanGuard as a solution that provides patch management, vulnerability assessment, asset inventory, auditing and compliance features to help secure a network.
Beyond layers and peripheral antivirus security
This white paper from Trend Micro discusses strategies for effective antivirus security beyond just protecting desktops. It argues that while desktop protection is still important, viruses often spread faster than antivirus updates can be deployed to endpoints. It therefore recommends taking additional measures across the network like stopping viruses at email/file servers, firewalls, and through education. The paper provides an overview of virus impacts and outlines Trend Micro's solutions that can block new threats before pattern updates and help repair damage.

It's Your Move: The Changing Game of Endpoint Security
The document discusses challenges in modern endpoint security and strategies to address them. It outlines how attackers have changed their tactics to take advantage of outdated defenses. The key moves discussed to regain control include implementing defense-in-depth endpoint security, shifting to trust-based security focused on preventing execution rather than detection, focusing on operational basics like patching and asset management, and managing devices to limit local admin risks and unwanted applications. It also provides an example of how one company addressed their security issues by implementing the Lumension Endpoint Management and Security Suite.
The Role of Application Control in a Zero-Day Reality
With end users often downloading unwanted and unknown applications, more than 1.6 million new malware signatures appearing every month and a rising tide of zero-day attacks, there is more risk to your systems and information than ever before.
Find out:
* How to defend against zero-day threats - without waiting for the latest anti-virus signatures
* Why application control / whitelisting should be a central component of your security program

Shift to Intelligent Endpoint Security Management
The document discusses the shift from traditional endpoint security methods to more intelligent approaches. Traditional defenses like antivirus software and patching are no longer effective against modern threats. New strategies are needed to control applications and local user privileges, prevent zero-day and targeted attacks, and provide better security reporting. Without improved technology solutions, organizations will continue to have sensitive data and systems compromised by cybercriminals. The future of endpoint security requires more intelligent methods like application whitelisting to lock down systems while optimizing security and resources.

- Each topic is then defined in one to three paragraphs with examples of common tools used for tasks like passive and active reconnaissance, static application security testing, and vulnerability assessments.
Security has been the number 1 issue for any IT industry and organiz.pdf
Security has been the number 1 issue for any IT industry and organizations have to adopt to the
new security technology catering to their needs from time to time. Though the DBMS itself has
security features, however multiple features like SQL injection protection,vulnerability
assessments,user control activity etc features are still left unattended.Let us now see what are the
emerging security technologies in the protection of databases.
Protecting sensitive and confidential data of the organization is getting more and more difficult
as new threats are discovered. Database is a ever growing thing and their is a chance for the
presence of loopholes.The main problem when it comes to databases is the DBA should have the
view of all the data as a central controller and he should scour the database for any
vulnerabilities.VMT ( vulnerability management technology) is very useful to view the entire
database landscape and help the DBA to ensure his data of any exploitations.
Once the landscape is clearly scene a series of scans can be administered to see where the
sensitive or high protection needed data is present and using DAM technology (Database
monitoring technology) it is easy to protect the sensitive data effectively and add patches
wherever required. The technology also generates warnings and alerts on violations as it
monitors the database in real time. Most useful feature of using DAM is to collect information
about the use of DBMS which can help in audit purposes.It also provides database firewalls
which is similar to web application firewalls which can discard malicious activity,filter the
queries and have blacklist and whitelist feature as well.
Yes, software security is what people are after.However hardware security is needed wherever
software security cant protect.Nowadays cloud computing has emerged as the most powerful
technology where every information we have will be stored in remote servers and can be
accessed by us whenever needed. But the question arises about the security of the data. So, one
wonderful solution for this involves a hardware security systems where the dedicated chips are
inserted in the servers which can be overridden by the third parties via malicious attacks.These
chips provide security and security verification and makes the cloud system safe and reliable.
It is an obvious fact that providing hardware security for the device gives more confidence that
having a software security solution which can be accessed remotely and malware can come and
reside anywhere, But in these hardware systems there are only designated tasks and limited space
and malware cant even hide there.
Hardware security chips also manage physical problems.For example if there are fluctuations in
temperature,problems in electrical flow and breach of the casting then these chips can erase the
sensitive data.In this way these chips can protect themselves. There is also a facilty of every chip
having a unique digital signature and the user whe.

"Evolving Cybersecurity Strategies" - Identity is the new security boundary
This document discusses evolving cybersecurity strategies and moving to an identity-driven security model. It argues that the traditional approach of using many separate "best of breed" security products is too complex, expensive, and slow. Instead, it recommends moving to an integrated security platform centered around identity. This platform would provide pre-integrated solutions, identity-based policies, and machine learning capabilities to detect threats faster. It also discusses leveraging cloud infrastructure and workloads for improved security through features like regular updates and an "intelligent security graph" using data from billions of signals.
Cybersecurity Concerns You Should be Thinking About
Threats have increased exponentially. Current indicators show a massive increase in threat vectors as a result of COVID-19. What makes this more unsettling is the fact that most ransomware will remain dormant for months before activating. Check out this presentation with ATC provider, TPx. Topics covered during this virtual event include: firewall security, firewall software, endpoints, malware, backups and DR, managed security services and TPx MSx.
White Paper: Defense In Breadth
The document discusses how traditional defense-in-depth security strategies are no longer sufficient due to the expanding attack surface from growing device, network, threat, and vector breadth. As devices become more mobile and networks more complex, attackers have more opportunities. Existing security products also lack the ability to provide comprehensive protection across all devices, locations, and protocols. The document argues that a new "defense-in-breadth" approach is needed using a cloud-based security gateway to regain visibility and control across the entire attack surface.
Disrupting the Malware Kill Chain - What's New from Palo Alto Networks.
Simon Wong and Chris Cram, Scalar security experts, discuss how Palo Alto Networks technology disrupts the entire malware kill chain. Attendees will also gain insight on flexible deployment options to better serve their mobile users, and how to get the most out of their Palo Alto Networks deployment.
10 Components of Business Cyber Security
This document outlines 10 key components of business cyber security: network protection, privileged account management, malware defense, constant monitoring, keeping everything up-to-date, incident management plans, managing removable devices, security education, security policies, and securing mobile work. It provides details on each component, such as the importance of filtering networks, only giving privileged users access to privileged accounts, having malware protection plans, constantly monitoring systems, and keeping all software and operating systems updated to protect against vulnerabilities. The document emphasizes that security education is critical to avoid employee mistakes that can enable cyber attacks.
Cyber security and AI
The document discusses cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and how AI can help improve cybersecurity. It notes that while organizations spend billions on cybersecurity, chief information security officers still feel highly exposed. Traditional security methods focus on preventing infiltration but are always one step behind evolving threats. The document argues that AI can help enforce cyber hygiene practices like least privilege to shrink the attack surface, making the problem more bounded and manageable compared to always chasing threats. It discusses how AI is well-suited for understanding intended application behavior based on established rules and data from good software.
eForensics_17_2013_KMOKER
Windows FE (Forensic Environment) allows forensic examiners to boot an evidence machine to Windows instead of Linux or other operating systems. This allows examiners to use their familiar Windows-based forensic tools rather than needing to learn Linux applications. Windows FE is based on Windows PE (Preinstallation Environment) but is designed for forensic analysis, where Windows PE is for system preparation and installation. Booting to Windows FE preserves evidence better than hardware write blocking and allows examiners to efficiently image, triage, and examine evidence machines using their preferred Windows software tools.
