In the software engineering world, change is the only constant. And in the course of the last decades, the frequency of that change has exploded. What Agile has brought to software teams, DevOps is now bringing to the entire organization. And the results speak for themselves. The DevOps high-performers are killing it. Insane deploy frequencies of features, high reliability of applications, and high productivity of cross-functional teams have amplified the speed at which ideas become a reality.
In parallel, Application Security was doing its own thing and to a large part remained oblivious to all the impressive improvements that were happening in software engineering. Because breaking an application doesn’t need any knowledge of how it was created in the first place.
This talk will cover anti-patterns that are preventing application security from being adopted by development teams, such as:
* Issues Overload
* Acronym Overuse
* Sales team Wall

ASHBURN, Va. – At its core, trusted-computing works to ensure that computing systems operate safely, securely, and correctly every time. Trusted computing matters at every level of operation, whether it be the processor level, software level, or system level. Each layer of a computing system ensures that a system can operate securely. Because malicious attackers are able to poke at all layers of a system, securing only one single layer often is not the most effective use of resources.

Advance security in cloud computing for military weaponsIRJET Journal
This document proposes a system to securely transmit military weapon launch codes through cloud storage using multiple security techniques. The system uses steganography to hide launch codes in image captchas. Visual cryptography is then used to split the captcha images into shares distributed to authorized users. Each share undergoes image encryption and watermarking before being sent via email. To obtain the launch code, users decrypt their shares, verify the watermarks through de-watermarking, and use visual cryptography to reconstruct the original captcha and extract the hidden launch code text. The proposed multi-layered approach aims to securely transmit sensitive military information through cloud storage.
IRJET - Multimedia Security on Cloud Computing using CryptographyIRJET Journal
This document presents a research paper that proposes a two-stage encryption algorithm to improve security of multimedia content stored in the cloud. The first stage encrypts multimedia content into ciphertext-1 using an asymmetric private key that is randomly generated. The ciphertext-1 is then encrypted again in the cloud using a symmetric public key. During decryption, the encrypted ciphertext is first decrypted using the randomly generated key to retrieve ciphertext-1, which is then decrypted using traditional encryption methods to recover the original multimedia content. The randomly generated key makes it difficult to extract the encryption key and access the encrypted information without authorization. The proposed algorithm aims to enhance security against negligent third parties and side channel attacks in cloud computing.
IT SECURITY PLAN FOR FLIGHT SIMULATION PROGRAMIJCSEA Journal
Information security is one of the most important aspects of technology, we cannot protect the best interests of our organizations' assets (be that personnel, data, or other resources), without ensuring that these assetsare protected to the best of their ability. Within the Defense Department, this is vital to the security of not just those assets but also the national security of the United States. Compromise insecurity could lead severe consequences. However, technology changes so rapidly that change has to be made to reflect these changes with security in mind. This article outlines a growing technological change (virtualization and cloud computing), and how to properly address IT security concerns within an operating environment. By leveraging a series of encrypted physical and virtual systems, andnetwork isolation measures, this paper delivered a secured high performance computing environment that efficiently utilized computing resources, reduced overall computer processing costs, and ensures confidentiality, integrity, and availability of systems within the operating environment
Practical risk management for the multi cloudUlf Mattsson
This session will take a practical approach to IT risk management and discuss multi cloud, Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) and how Enterprises are losing ground in the fight against persistent cyber-attacks. We simply cannot catch the bad guys until it is too late. This picture is not improving. Verizon reports concluded that less than 14% of breaches are detected by internal monitoring tools.
We will review the JP Morgan Chase data breach were hackers were in the bank’s network for months undetected. Network configuration errors are inevitable, even at the largest banks as Capital One that recently had a data breach where a hacker gained access to 100 million credit card applications and accounts.
Viewers will also learn about:
- Macro trends in Cloud security and Micro trends in Cloud security
- Risks from Quantum Computing and when we should move to alternate forms of encryption
- Review “Kill Chains” from Lockhead Martin in relation to APT and DDoS Attacks
- Risk Management methods from ISACA and other organizations

Open Source Insight: Amazon Servers Exposed Open Source & the Public Sector...Black Duck by Synopsys
This issue of Open Source Insight looks at how data leaks on Amazon servers may have exposed the personal information of 198 million American voters and 14 million Verizon customers. Is the federal cybersecurity infrastructure keeping up with threats?
Why do some many companies have problems keeping their software up to date? Are vulnerability tools up to snuff?
All this and more open source security and cybersecurity news…
This article examines the emerging need for software assurance. As defense contractors continue to develop systems for the Department of Defense (DoD) those systems must meet stringent requirements for deployment. However as over half of the vulnerabilities are found at the application layer organizations must ensure that proper mechanisms are in place to ensure the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of the code is maintained.

Generic Security Framework for Multiple Heterogeneous Virtual InfrastructuresIJRES Journal
Virtualization continues to take center stage at IT industry, yet many organizations are finding it difficult to secure virtualized environments. Security is a critical component in the growing IT system surrounding virtualization. Many organizations find the security challenges associated with virtualization to be a major hurdle, companies of all kinds across all industries are looking towards addressing business and security needs in the virtual infrastructure. There are many research work done before about how to check the compliance status of the cloud platform, not of the virtual machines running on the platform. This paper proposes the security framework for multiple heterogeneous virtual machines which assess the compliance security of the virtual machines. In this paper we make use of REST APIs, using which we create remote session on the virtual machines and fetch the machine values which will be parsed to get the required values for assessment.

Advance security in cloud computing for military weaponsIRJET Journal
This document proposes a system to securely transmit military weapon launch codes through cloud storage using multiple security techniques. The system uses steganography to hide launch codes in image captchas. Visual cryptography is then used to split the captcha images into shares distributed to authorized users. Each share undergoes image encryption and watermarking before being sent via email. To obtain the launch code, users decrypt their shares, verify the watermarks through de-watermarking, and use visual cryptography to reconstruct the original captcha and extract the hidden launch code text. The proposed multi-layered approach aims to securely transmit sensitive military information through cloud storage.
IRJET - Multimedia Security on Cloud Computing using CryptographyIRJET Journal
This document presents a research paper that proposes a two-stage encryption algorithm to improve security of multimedia content stored in the cloud. The first stage encrypts multimedia content into ciphertext-1 using an asymmetric private key that is randomly generated. The ciphertext-1 is then encrypted again in the cloud using a symmetric public key. During decryption, the encrypted ciphertext is first decrypted using the randomly generated key to retrieve ciphertext-1, which is then decrypted using traditional encryption methods to recover the original multimedia content. The randomly generated key makes it difficult to extract the encryption key and access the encrypted information without authorization. The proposed algorithm aims to enhance security against negligent third parties and side channel attacks in cloud computing.
IT SECURITY PLAN FOR FLIGHT SIMULATION PROGRAMIJCSEA Journal
Information security is one of the most important aspects of technology, we cannot protect the best interests of our organizations' assets (be that personnel, data, or other resources), without ensuring that these assetsare protected to the best of their ability. Within the Defense Department, this is vital to the security of not just those assets but also the national security of the United States. Compromise insecurity could lead severe consequences. However, technology changes so rapidly that change has to be made to reflect these changes with security in mind. This article outlines a growing technological change (virtualization and cloud computing), and how to properly address IT security concerns within an operating environment. By leveraging a series of encrypted physical and virtual systems, andnetwork isolation measures, this paper delivered a secured high performance computing environment that efficiently utilized computing resources, reduced overall computer processing costs, and ensures confidentiality, integrity, and availability of systems within the operating environment
Practical risk management for the multi cloudUlf Mattsson
This session will take a practical approach to IT risk management and discuss multi cloud, Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) and how Enterprises are losing ground in the fight against persistent cyber-attacks. We simply cannot catch the bad guys until it is too late. This picture is not improving. Verizon reports concluded that less than 14% of breaches are detected by internal monitoring tools.
We will review the JP Morgan Chase data breach were hackers were in the bank’s network for months undetected. Network configuration errors are inevitable, even at the largest banks as Capital One that recently had a data breach where a hacker gained access to 100 million credit card applications and accounts.
Viewers will also learn about:
- Macro trends in Cloud security and Micro trends in Cloud security
- Risks from Quantum Computing and when we should move to alternate forms of encryption
- Review “Kill Chains” from Lockhead Martin in relation to APT and DDoS Attacks
- Risk Management methods from ISACA and other organizations

Open Source Insight: Amazon Servers Exposed Open Source & the Public Sector...Black Duck by Synopsys
This issue of Open Source Insight looks at how data leaks on Amazon servers may have exposed the personal information of 198 million American voters and 14 million Verizon customers. Is the federal cybersecurity infrastructure keeping up with threats?
Why do some many companies have problems keeping their software up to date? Are vulnerability tools up to snuff?
All this and more open source security and cybersecurity news…
This article examines the emerging need for software assurance. As defense contractors continue to develop systems for the Department of Defense (DoD) those systems must meet stringent requirements for deployment. However as over half of the vulnerabilities are found at the application layer organizations must ensure that proper mechanisms are in place to ensure the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of the code is maintained.

Generic Security Framework for Multiple Heterogeneous Virtual InfrastructuresIJRES Journal
Virtualization continues to take center stage at IT industry, yet many organizations are finding it difficult to secure virtualized environments. Security is a critical component in the growing IT system surrounding virtualization. Many organizations find the security challenges associated with virtualization to be a major hurdle, companies of all kinds across all industries are looking towards addressing business and security needs in the virtual infrastructure. There are many research work done before about how to check the compliance status of the cloud platform, not of the virtual machines running on the platform. This paper proposes the security framework for multiple heterogeneous virtual machines which assess the compliance security of the virtual machines. In this paper we make use of REST APIs, using which we create remote session on the virtual machines and fetch the machine values which will be parsed to get the required values for assessment.

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.

DARPA Looks to Automate Security for IC Design
By George Leopold < https://www.eetimes.com/author/george-leopold/> 05.27.2020 0
The latest in a series of Pentagon semiconductor initiatives seeks to embed security features into chip designs
that would allow silicon architects to probe economics-versus-security tradeoffs while baking in security
throughout device lifecycles.
The chip design effort represents continuing U.S. efforts to secure its electronics supply chain as
semiconductors emerge as a choke point in what is shaping up as a technological Cold War with China <
https://www.eetimes.com/tsmc-ariz-fab-a-tangled-web/> .
DARPA announced two teams this week to ramp up its year-old Automatic Implementation of Secure
Silicon (AISS) program < https://www.darpa.mil/news-events/automatic-implementation-of-secure-
silicon-proposers-day> led by Synopsys and Northrop Grumman. Both teams will develop Arm-based
architectures that incorporate a “security engine” used to defend against attacks and reverse-engineering of
chips. An upgradeable platform would provide the infrastructure that military planners say is needed to
manage hardened chips throughout their lifecycles.
Launched in April 2019, AISS is designed to
balance security and economic considerations
in securing the IC design process and chip
supply chains.

Besides Arm, the Synopsys team includes
aerospace giant Boeing <

Cybersecurity, Texas A&M University,
University of California at San Diego, and U.K.-
based embedded analytics vendor UltraSoC < https://www.eetimes.com/ultrasoc-gets-6-3m-for-hardware-
level-cybersecurity/> .
Northrop Grumman heads a team that includes IBM, University of Arkansas and University of Florida.
The two-tiered effort includes competing “security engine” approaches that address key chip vulnerabilities
such as side channel attacks, hardware Trojans, reverse engineering and supply chain exploits. Side channel

2. attacks include tracking device power consumption as a means of stealing an encryption key.
In a later phase, the Synopsys team will seek to leverage EDA tools to integrate its security engine into SoC
platforms. The approach would combine “security-aware” EDA tools developed under the DARPA program
using commercial IP from Arm, Synopsys and UltraSoC.
Chip designers would then specify key constraints for power, area, speed and security for AISS tools. Those
tools would then “automatically generate optimal implementations based on the application objectives,”
program officials said.
“The ultimate goal of the AISS program is to accelerate the timeline from architecture to security-hardened
[register transfer level] from one year, to one week — and to do so at a substantially reduced cost,” said Serge
Leef, the DARPA’s program manager for AISS.
Ultimately, the agency hopes to automate the process of incorporating “scalable defense mechanisms into chip
designs” as it seeks to protect its semiconductor supply chain.
Related DoD technology efforts include industrial base initiatives aimed at securing U.S. chip supply chains
using digital twin capabilities that can validate integrity in either individual devices or a batch of chips. A
Defense Department/Air Force effort < https://www.eetimes.com/military-enlists-digital-twin-
technology-to-secure-chips/> announced earlier this year also would add a layer of secure “provenance
tracking” as well as the “heterogeneous integration” of chip types on a single die.
