Dragos Adversary Hunter Jimmy Wylie presents "TRSIS in Perspective" at the 13th annual API conference in Houston, TX. This presentation analyzes the 2017 TRISIS event at an unspecified gas facility in Saudi Arabia--the first deliberate targeting of SIS that could have resulted in potential loss of life. This presentation also examines post-TRISIS, as Dragos has observed that XENOTIME, the adversary group responsible for TRSIS, has expanded its targeting to North America and other safety systems.

How to Increase ICS Cybersecurity Return on Investment (ROI) Dragos, Inc.
In Austin's presentation, he will align his 2019 top 5 findings from the Dragos Industrial Penetration Testing team to tactical activities that can be performed to reduce cyberrisk within industrial environments. Return on Investment (ROI) is a broad and subjective term. Even in terms of industrial cyberrisk reduction, the interpretation of ROI can change drastically depending on who you ask. As a member of the Dragos Industrial Penetration Testing team, he sees the world around him in terms of exploitation effort. Exploitation effort is the investment required by an adversary to advance through a network. In his presentation, Austin will detail five ways that will significantly increase the time and energy needed for an adversary while minimizing operational and capital expenditure.
Intelligence-Driven Industrial Security with Case Studies in ICS Attacks Dragos, Inc.
Robert M. Lee's, Dragos CEO, presentation from RSA 2019.
Description: Most industrial security best practices are essentially enterprise security best practices copy/pasted into industrial networks. Yet that is not an effective way to reduce risk against industrial-specific threats. Instead, we can learn from ICS attacks that have occurred. In this presentation, Robert M, Lee, CEO and co-founder of Dragos will provide first-hand insights into industrial threats and the lessons learned for industrial security.

Virtualizing Industrial Controllers (PLCs/DCS Controllers) represents a fundamental shift in the industrial automation industry. Most industries have fully embraced virtualization as a means to support reliability, scalability and resource optimization. However, the industrial control system industry has been slow to adopt virtualization into automation controllers fully. These slides are from Austin Scott's S4 2019 presentation and outlines the benefits of industrial controller virtualization and why automation vendors see this as a threat to their business model. The slides describe a virtualized PLC deployment at a large refinery in North America that allowed them to scale to support the massive size of the plant and includes:
- What is PLC virtualization?
- A brief history of PLC virtualization
- Challenges with PLC virtualization
- The benefits of PLC/Controller virtualization
- Commodity controllers

In this presentation Daniel Michaud-Soucy, Principal Threat Analyst at Dragos, will demonstrate three separate models in order to identify gaps in ICS security posture. First, threat modeling serves as an inward look as an ICS network defender in order to properly understand the environment, the threat actors, the impacts, the risks and the crown jewels pertaining to an industrial process. Second, the ICS cyber kill chain serves as an outward look at the steps an adversary needs to take in order to achieve their objectives. Third, the bowtie model allows a graphical representation of the threats to the environment as well as the protection, detection, and response controls that help secure it. In the end, the asset owner creates a holistic picture of the security controls in their network, pertaining to the threat actors they care about and allows identification of gaps in their strategy.

How to Simplify Audit Compliance with Unified Security ManagementAlienVault
Maintaining, verifying, and demonstrating compliance with regulatory requirements, whether PCI DSS, HIPAA, GLBA or others, is far from a trivial exercise. Proving compliance with these requirements often translates into a lot of manual and labor-intensive tasks – chasing down discrepancies in asset inventory spreadsheets, remediating critical vulnerabilities, and weeding through log data trying to make sense of it all. In fact, you may need to consult at least a dozen different tools to assemble the security controls and reports you need. Compliance doesn't have to be so hard.
Review this presentation to learn:
- Common audit compliance failures
- A pre-audit checklist to help you plan and prepare
- Core security capabilities needed to demonstrate compliance
- How to simplify compliance with a unified approach to security

Detecting ICS Attacks Using Recurrent Neural NetworksKaspersky
Cyber attacks aiming at critical infrastructure and automated industrial production plants can be the most disastrous in terms of consequences. But, luckily for us, the digital footprint of any physical system is governed by the laws of physics, and a neural network can learn the normal behaviour of the cyberphysical system and detect the anomalies faster that safety sensors normally do - saving time and costs.
Andrey Lavrentyev, Head of Technology Research Department, Kaspersky Lab, talked at S4x18 Conference in San Francisco about successful implementation of a recurrent neural network to a Tennessee Eastman Process.

BsidesSP: Pentesting in SDN - Owning the ControllersRoberto Soares
Conference:
BsidesSP
Description:
SDN (Software Defined Network) has attracted the attention of many technology giants from various segments such as VMware, Juniper, Cisco, HP, IBM, Google, China Telecom, Huawei and others by providing more virtualized services that can be scheduled, managed and monitored faster, more efficient and in a less costly manner than the usual solutions. Defining routes, switching, QoS treatment and security policies that happened in stocky and specific hardware now has performed his duties in higher layers of software, installed on virtualized machine. But how can we test this? First, we'll address an overview of the SDN architecture, soon after, it will be explained how to find SDN controllers, and if present in our network, steal critical information so that we can proceed with our exploitation. In the end, we will take possession of the controllers and make unexpected. There will be a smattering of codes for metasploit that will be demonstrated. Does a controller can control us? We'll see.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
