Is av dead or just missing in action - avar2016rajeshnikam
This document discusses whether antivirus (AV) software is dead or just missing in action. It begins by comparing traditional, signature-based AV to next-generation security products that use techniques like threat intelligence and machine learning. The document then debunks common security myths and discusses VirusTotal's role in evaluating next-gen AVs. Results from independent tests of various next-gen security products are presented. The document concludes that while no single product can solve all security issues, the approach to security needs to constantly evolve through layered defenses and beyond just next-gen hype.
This document discusses vulnerability assessment and penetration testing. It defines them as two types of vulnerability testing that search for known vulnerabilities and attempt to exploit vulnerabilities, respectively. Vulnerability assessment uses automated tools to detect known issues, while penetration testing employs hacking techniques to demonstrate how deeply vulnerabilities could be exploited like an actual attacker. Both are important security practices for identifying weaknesses and reducing risks, but require different skills and have different strengths, weaknesses, frequencies, and report outputs. Reasons for vulnerabilities include insecure coding, limited testing, and misconfigurations. The document outlines common vulnerability and attack types as well as how vulnerability assessment and penetration testing are typically conducted.
Vulnerability assessment identifies flaws in computers and networks but does not differentiate exploitable flaws from non-exploitable ones, providing companies with a comprehensive view of weaknesses. Penetration testing tests systems to exploit vulnerabilities either automatically or manually, determining security weaknesses to test an organization's security policies. Types of penetration testing include white box within a network, black box externally without network knowledge, and gray box externally with some internal knowledge.
Antivirus software uses techniques like malware signatures, system monitoring, and machine learning to detect and remove viruses, malware, and other threats from computers. Key types include boot sector viruses, web scripting viruses, browser hijackers, and macro viruses. Popular antivirus programs provide multiple layers of protection through features like encryption, data backup, password security, and firewalls. 360 Total Security is an antivirus program that employs engines from Bitdefender and Avira to detect threats through heuristics and cloud-based scanning. It protects against risks like ransomware and unauthorized webcam access.
MITRE ATT&CK framework is about the framework that is followed by Threat Hunters, Threat Analysts for Threat Modelling purpose, which can be use for Adversary Emulation and Attack Defense. Cybersecurity Analyst widely use it for framing the attack through its various used Tactics and Techniques.
The document discusses three questions related to software and application security.

Rootkits are difficult to detect malware that gains control of systems
Blackhat Europe 2009 - Detecting Certified Pre Owned SoftwareTyler Shields
The document discusses detecting "certified pre-owned" software, or software containing backdoors. It describes how static analysis of software binaries can detect various types of application backdoors, including special credentials, unintended network activity, and deliberate information leakage. The document focuses on detecting indicators that software is trying to hide its behavior, such as rootkit behavior and anti-debugging techniques, through static analysis of the software code. Rules can be developed for static analyzers to inspect software for these types of backdoor behaviors and indicators.
This document discusses and compares signature-based and behavior-based anti-malware approaches. Signature-based detection identifies malware by matching patterns in software to known malware signatures but is susceptible to evasion and cannot detect new malware. Behavior-based detection monitors program behaviors and flags anomalous behaviors as potentially malicious, but it can produce false positives and be evaded through mimicry attacks. The document also describes specification-based monitoring, a behavior-based technique that mediates program events according to security policies.

Software are programs that enable computers to perform tasks by processing instructions. There are two main types: system software like operating systems, utilities, and drivers; and application software for specific tasks like word processing, games, etc. Software can be proprietary, sold commercially, freeware, or open source. It is installed from physical media or downloaded, and some common file types are associated with applications like .doc files for Word.
Secure software is software developed to protect systems and resources from malicious attacks while allowing normal operations. It ensures systems and resources remain safe even when under attack, and detects and removes attacks. Adhering to security standards facilitates early detection of defects, reducing costs of remediation. Key aspects of secure software include securing databases from SQL injections, encoding data before execution to prevent injections, validating all input data, and implementing access controls to define user access to resources.
A spyware can be defined as any program which is entered into a system secretly and gathers information saved within it and transfers it to a third party without making it in the knowledge of the user. It enters into the system as a result of installing a new application.
The CCleaner utility was infected with malware for a period of time, allowing hackers to distribute malware to millions of users. The legitimate version of CCleaner 5.33 contained malware that was installed along with the program. The hackers were able to do this by compromising part of the development or build environment and inserting malware into the CCleaner version that was publicly released. This attack exploited the trust relationship between software developers and users to widely distribute malware through a popular cleaning utility.
