Anticipate and Prevent Cyber Attack Scenarios, Before They OccurSkybox Security
Presented at ISSA Cornerstones of Trust June 6, 2012.
No one wants to be the next cyber casualty. Collectively, organizations spend an enormous amount of resources deploying and managing security solutions to block malware, protect data, and keep critical business services operating.
Yet most organizations remain inadequately protected against evolving and dangerous cyber threats. In this session, we will learn to recognize common network attack scenarios and mitigate the combination of misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, access policy violations and other security gaps that can be exploited by sophisticated attackers.
High-profile breaches at Epsilon, Sony, and other enterprise and government networks have dominated the news lately, raising awareness of the need to design effective security strategies against sophisticated attacks and advanced persistent threats (APTs). Many companies struggle with where to begin to develop an effective plan of cyber defense.
During this session we will walk the audience through several attack scenarios using a visual attack explorer tool, highlighting the combination of security gaps that are often used and how to prevent them. Network modeling, vulnerability analysis, access path analysis, and attack simulation will all be introduced and we will show how these analytical tools can be used to quickly and automatically find exposed areas of a network.
As the industry’s first Secure Internet Gateway in the cloud, Cisco Umbrella provides the first line of defense against threats on the internet, protecting all your users within minutes.
Cisco Advanced Malware Protection offers global threat intelligence, advanced sandboxing and real-time malware blocking to prevent breaches while it continuously analyzes file activity across your network, so that you can quickly detect, contain and remove advanced malware.

If you’re tasked with keeping your enterprise network infrastructure secure against cyber attacks, then you’d better start thinking like a hacker. Do you know what your network looks like? Where are all the access points? Can you create a short list of the most vital vulnerabilities a hacker could exploit? And how long does it take you to get this info? Days? Weeks? Never?
In this webcast, we will discuss a practical game plan to continuously monitor your cyber security status and proactively fix concerns before they become a data breach or attack. Learn how to minimize risks by combining a detailed understanding of your network topology, cyber threats, and likely attack scenarios with everyday security management processes. This webcast is appropriate for firewall and network administrators, IT security managers, and CISOs in medium to large business and government agencies.
We will examine:
• Network mapping – How to create a virtual network model to use for security architecture planning and policy compliance checks
• Access analysis – Ways to identify all network access routes , to block unauthorized access and quickly troubleshoot network availability issues
• Securing the perimeter – Enable daily checks of firewalls and network devices to keep them configured securely
• Attack simulation – Find and fix the vulnerabilities most likely to be used in an attack – every day
In this breakout session Cerdant's top engineers, Jeremiah Johnson and Jason Palm displayed how to get the most out of your SonicWALL device by utilizing advanced features like Capture ATP and DPI-SSL.

Introducing Cognitive Threat Analytics (CTA), Cisco's automated breach detection technology based on statistical modeling and machine learning of network traffic behaviors, whose goal is to identify end-user devices within the monitored network that from network perspective do not represent a communication of a legitimate human user behind their web browser, but actually represent a malware-infected (breached) device establishing its command & control communication to an external malicious infrastructure. The CTA technology produces actionable security intelligence for security operations and threat research to act on. The STIX/TAXII API standards are being used for the security intelligence interchange. An integration is available with the leading SIEM vendors and other STIX/TAXII compliant clients.

This presentation starts by outlining key characteristics of advanced threats, helping to define these threats in an industry where they are most often associated with nation-state attacks. Smart malware, and recent examples of advanced threats such as Qakbot and Cryptolocker demonstrate the true nature of advanced threats as both persistent and subtle. New threats are also launched every day, requiring a security method designed to detect named and unnamed advanced threats that successfully penetrate the network. The presentation explains how CTA provides the visibility necessary to identify those infections. The explanation includes the history and technique of CTA in terms of telemetry and machine learning. The presentation also goes into depth on CTA's layered approach which combines anomaly detection, trust modeling, classification and entity modeling in an ensemble approach. The viewer will come away with an understanding of why CTA is a natural fit with AMP on CWS in the CWS Premium product offering. CWS Premium begins the customer's journey towards identifying zero day advanced threats in their network.

Mastering Chaos - A Netflix Guide to MicroservicesJosh Evans
QConSF 2016 Abstract:
By embracing the tension between order and chaos and applying a healthy mix of discipline and surrender Netflix reliably operates microservices in the cloud at scale. But every lesson learned and solution developed over the last seven years was born out of pain for us and our customers. Even today we remain vigilant as we evolve our service architecture. For those just starting the microservices journey these lessons and solutions provide a blueprint for success.
In this talk we’ll explore the chaotic and vibrant world of microservices at Netflix. We’ll start with the basics - the anatomy of a microservice, the challenges around distributed systems, and the benefits realized when integrated operational practices and technical solutions are properly leveraged. Then we’ll build on that foundation exploring the cultural, architectural, and operational methods that lead to microservice mastery.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Editor's Notes
Thanks for taking the time to meet today to talk about Cisco Cloud Web Security Premium, or CWS Premium, from Cisco.
T: Let’s get started.
<click>
Today’s reality has 3 outcomes for your business:
Your environment will be breached
When it is, it will probably happen because of an infected email
And if hackers use command and control on your system, they will probably get access via web
T: All of this means, you need a smarter solution.
<click>
With CWS Premium, you get all the features of CWS Essentials and enhanced protection in the During and After phase through AMP and CTA.
<click>
T: Let’s dive deeper into AMP and CTA.

<click>
T: Let’s dive deeper into AMP and CTA.
<click>
AMP and CTA sets CWS Premium apart from competitors’ solutions.
<click>
AMP increases resistance against direct attacks from the web with File Reputation, content analysis, and Retrospective Security.
<click>
CTA is a breach detection technology that detects anomalous activity. It identifies infections that may have bypassed the web infection vector, like infected emails, USB sticks, or other guest devices.
T: Now let’s take a look at the features that enable these benefits.
<click>
T: Let’s take a closer look at the capabilities of CTA.
<click>
In order to help you understand the threats on your system, CTA breaks all threats down into two categories: Confirmed and Detected.
Confirmed threats represent verified campaigns. With 100% confirmed breaches across multiple users you can quickly get a handle on the scope of the attack, as well as automate remediation across your system.
<click>
The dashboard tells you everything you need to know, including:
When the threat was first detected
When it was last observed
How many users are affected
And how prevalent the threat is at other companies
T: And the Detected Threats report gives you a similar breakdown.
<click>
Get insight into exactly what a threat is doing
See very specific behaviors, for example a particular file was added to a certain directory in a certain app or program
Lets you know that this particular threat performed this particular action at this time
Detected threats are not, or not yet confirmed as part of a larger campaign.
<click>
The dashboard provides you with as much information about the detected threats as possible so you can make an informed decision on how to proceed. The report includes:
Unique threats detected for individuals
Suspected threat confidence and risk levels
Forensic analysis to map the specific threat activities to domains, IPs, and autonomous systems
T: From end-to-end, CTA supports your entire system.
<click>
Starting with 10 billion requests a day, anomaly detection and trust modeling let you focus on the 1% of requests that actually matter.
<click>
Then, using event classification and entity modeling you can find out what type of threat it is, and where it is on your system.
Finally, using relationship modelling, you can understand if a threat is a one-off attack or part of a larger global campaign.
From 10 billion requests per day, down to 1-50 thousand incidents, CTA can comb through big data in near real-time.
This means you not only get the visibility you need, you get it when you need it.
T: Together, AMP and CTA help you determine the right course of action.
<click>
In the first layer of CTA, Anomaly Detection employs statistical machine learning methods in order to separate the statistically normal traffic from anomalous traffic.
40+ individual detectors process every HTTP or HTTPS request in the network. Typically, the Anomaly Detection layer processes 10 billion or more requests per day.
Each request is processed by all 40+ detectors, and each detector applies a different statistical algorithm.
Once the requests are processed, each detector provides an anomaly score, expressed as a number from 0-1, where 1 means highly anomalous.
<click>
The individual scores combine and produce one single score per individual request by again applying multiple statistical methods.
The aggregate score is then used to separate normal and anomalous traffic.
T: Only Cisco offers this multiple detector method.
<click>
The Anomaly Detection layer was designed to be a dynamic ensemble of specialized, statistical detectors. The approach is based on the assumption of algorithm independence.
<click>
Each algorithm has a certain probability of classifying a normal flow as anomalous, generating a false positive.
<click>
However, the probability that two or more independent algorithms would err on the same flow is significantly lower. Using multiple detectors increases the statistical significance of the overall anomaly score, by reducing the number of false negatives and false positives.
The ensemble design also allows us to make the individual algorithms more general, base them on repeatable fundamental principles, and achieve economies of scale by being able to deploy the system globally without any per-customer manual configuration. Ensemble systems are typically configured dynamically, or automatically, at deployment time.
While the anomaly detectors do contain highly condensed and anonymized states, they are still prone to fluctuations and false positives due to the natural irregularities that occur in web traffic.
T: CTA uses Trust Modeling to further reduce false positives.
<click>
Trust modeling groups similar requests together and aggregates the anomaly score for those groups as a long-term average.
We create an n-dimensional space from common properties of web flows. Requests carrying anomaly scores are mapped to a particular location in the space based on the requests’ properties. Similar looking flows create clusters.
The overall anomaly of each cluster is represented as an average of the individual requests’ anomaly scores.
<click>
Over time, more requests are mapped to the space to produce a long-term average anomaly score for each cluster, and reduce false positives and false negatives. For example, if there are six thousand similar anomalous requests and request six thousand and one is considered normal, the cluster will maintain an average score of anomalous, because all other similar requests were seen as anomalous.
Clusters with anomaly scores above a certain threshold move on to the next layer of processing. This threshold is determined dynamically by the system, and typically results in about 1% of traffic continuing on to the next steps.
T: The next processing feature is Event Classification.
<click>
As mentioned, the results of Trust Modeling are used to select a small subset of traffic.
This statistically anomalous subset is classified into 100 or more categories. Most classifiers are based on individual behavior or group relationships or behavior on a global or local scale, while others can be very specific. For example, a classifier may indicate command and control traffic, a suspicious extension, or a legitimate software update.
The output of this phase is a set of classified anomalous events with security relevance.
T: In the next phase, these events are attributed to specific entities in order to identify threats.
<click>
If the amount of evidence supporting the malicious hypothesis about a specific entity exceeds the significance threshold, a threat is created. The classified events that contributed to the threat creation are linked to that threat, and become part of a long-term discrete model of the entity.
<click>
As evidence accumulates over time, the system creates new threats when the significance threshold is reached. This threshold is dynamic and intelligently adjusts based on threat risk level and other factors.
The threat is then visible in the web GUI and is available via STIX/TAXII API, including subsequent (post-threat creation) activities of the suspected hosts.
T: The threats created in the Entity Modeling phase continue on to the next layer: Relationship Modeling.
<click>
The previous layers are capable of detecting both known and unknown threats. The goal of Relationship Modeling is to associate threats to known malware campaigns, in order to separate them from unknown threats that require different investigation and incident response processes.
The system uses Relationship Modeling so that it can identify that several independent threat actors use identical or similar malware components, and is able to distinguish between them.
In this example...
<click>
At Company A, we see two incidents of Threat Type 1 that are attributed to the same attack node. The attack node is either a domain or IP address. These two incidents are linked based on the local behavioral similarity of the threats.
At Company B, we see an incident of Threat Type 1 attributed to a different attack node. This incident is linked to the incidents at Company A based on global behavioral similarity.
At Company C, we see Threat Type 2. Because this incident is behaviorally similar to the incidents we see in Companies A and B, they are linked. We can extrapolate that they share threat infrastructure because similarly behaving threats came from different attack nodes .
To summarize, relationship modeling is based on the behavioral similarity of incidents.
T: Building this relationship model between incidents allows you to map the full threat infrastructure of the threat campaign.
<click>
Here’s an example of a modern attack utilizing Domain Generated Algorithms, or DGA, and data tunneling to communicate with domains.
The attacker maintains five servers distributed across various countries. Some of these servers function as a command and control channel and others are used to send captured data.
Domain registrations can be automated so we can see one of the domains has an age of 1 day. Time plays an important role here, because global Web Reputation will start picking up the malicious activity and lower this domain’s score quite quickly.
The current reputation scores reveal that some of the infrastructure has been detected as malicious and blocked by Web Reputation, while others may have a good or unknown reputation, but may be blocked by the antivirus engines or Outbreak Intelligence, or even by AMP.
The rest of the infrastructure is not blocked and this is where CTA comes to play. Not only will it flag those servers and domains but also shed light on how big the campaign is and how it evolved over time.
T: Now that we’ve detailed the individual layers of CTA’s breach detection technology, let’s look at the process from a high level.
