The document discusses implementing continuous monitoring of security controls to improve cybersecurity. It summarizes that the original FISMA framework was well-intended but resulted in an overly checklist-based approach. Continuous monitoring is presented as a better approach that leverages automated tools to frequently monitor high risk areas and security control implementation. The document advocates that continuous monitoring in the cloud may be easier due to centralized control and tools for rapid improvement. Overall continuous monitoring is argued to be an essential approach that can measurably improve security by stopping vulnerabilities before they are exploited.

More practical insights on the 20 critical controls
This presentation is for both alumni of the SANS 440 / 566 courses on the 20 Critical Controls and anyone considering implementing these controls in their organizations. Since the first version of the 20 Critical Controls were released, many organizations internationally have been considering implementing these controls as guideposts and metrics for effectively stopping directed attacks. Some organizations have been doing this effectively, others have struggled. This presentation will give case studies of organizations that have implemented these controls, what they have learned from their implementations about what works and what does not work practically. Not only will the discussion focus around what organizations are doing to implement the controls, but also what vendors are doing to help automate the controls and the status of resources and projects in the industry. Students will walk away with even more tools to be effective with their implementations.

The document uses a 2013 Java vulnerability as a case study to demonstrate how the CSCs could have prevented the attacks.
Cybersecurity Risk Management Program and Your Organization
In today’s business environment, organizations have a responsibility to their employees, clients, and customers to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the critical data that is entrusted to them. Every network is vulnerable to some form of attack. However it is not enough to simply confirm that a technical vulnerability exists and implement countermeasures; it is critical to repeatedly verify that the countermeasures are in place and working properly throughout the secured network. During this webinar, David Hammarberg, Principal, IT Director, and leader of McKonly & Asbury’s Cybersecurity Practice will be joined by Partner, Michael Hoffner and they will lead a discussion on a Cybersecurity Risk Management Program including what it is and how it can prepare your organization for the future.

"Creating an Effective Cyber Security Strategy: Key Attributes for Success, Challenges, and Critical Success Factors"Introduction to information security
Information security aims to balance information risks and controls. It began with early computer security focused on physical threats. A successful security approach uses multiple layers including physical, personal, operations, communications, network, and information security. Managing information security requires a structured methodology similar to implementing a major system, such as the Security Systems Development Life Cycle.

Practical approaches to address government contracting problems
This document discusses common problems in government contracting and provides best practices to address them. It identifies the following key problems: source selection takes too long and costs too much; difficulty locking down requirements; fear of protests limits interaction; failure to get innovative ideas once contracted; and lack of experienced acquisition staff. The best practices proposed to address these problems include: rapidly downselecting bidders; limiting emphasis on out-year pricing; promoting industry dialogue to define requirements; improving communication to reduce protests; using incentives to motivate continued innovation; and using collaboration and online support to leverage limited expertise.
The Economics of Cyber Security
This document outlines an economic framework for cybersecurity investment. It discusses:
- Implementing baseline security controls can address 80% of threats at low cost while improving availability. However, cultural resistance exists to prioritizing "hygiene."
- A framework is proposed with four levels based on mission criticality and threat sophistication. It recommends investing first in baseline controls, then in targeted advanced controls for critical functions facing sophisticated threats.
- Additional principles are outlined for tailoring investments to threats and accepting certain risks. Portfolio approaches are suggested to structure investments across infrastructure, back office systems, and unique mission capabilities.
Top Level Cyber Security Strategy
This document outlines a top level cyber security strategy that involves assessing systems based on their sophistication, mission criticality, and threat level to determine the appropriate security controls. For less critical or threatened systems with unsophisticated users, it recommends implementing a comprehensive baseline of security controls. For more critical systems or those facing higher threats, it suggests deploying targeted advanced security controls or accepting some risk.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.

Implementing Continuous Monitoring
- 1. Implementing Continuous Monitoring John M. Gilligan FedTech Continuous Monitoring Webinar December 1, 2011 1
- 2. Topics • Background • What is continuous monitoring • NIST and FISMA guidance • Continuous Monitoring in the “Cloud” • What’s next • Final thoughts 2
- 3. Government Security Environment • We are in a cyber “war” and are losing badly! • The IT industry has produced an inherently unsecure environment—total is security not achievable • CIO/CISO mandates exceed time and resources available • Cyber security is an enormously complex challenge—there are very few true experts It is time to focus on ways to make real improvements in security 3
- 4. FISMA Was Well Intended; What was Not Working? • Original intent was good: – Ensure effective controls – Improve oversight of security programs – Provide for independent evaluation • Implementation took us off course – Agencies unable to assess risks – NIST “guidance” became mandatory – No auditable basis for independent evaluation – Grading became overly focused on paperwork – Failure to recognize emergence of automated tools 4 Bottom Line: High cost and debates about security improvements!
- 5. Analogy of “Old” FISMA Implementation • An ambulance shows up at a hospital emergency room with a bleeding patient • Hospital gives inoculations for flu, tetanus, shingles, and vaccination updates • Hospital tests for communicable diseases, high blood pressure, sends blood sample for cholesterol check, gives eye exam and checks hearing • At some point, doctors address the cause of the bleeding 5 Former Policy Regarding FISMA Resulted in a Checklist Approach
- 6. Meanwhile, the patient is bleeding to death!! 6 We Need Triage--Not Comprehensive Medical Care
- 7. FISMA and NIST Guidance • FISMA Reporting Metrics (6/1/11) requires reporting on metrics monitored on a continuous basis • NIST SP-800-37 encourages continuous monitoring in support of certification/recertification 7 Policy and Guidelines recognizing benefits of Continuous Monitoring
- 8. What is Continuous Monitoring? • Monitor security controls at frequency of attacks • Recognize that systems undergo continuous evolution • Leverage automated tools* • Focus on highest threat areas (e.g., FISMA reporting guidance, 20 Critical Controls) • Implement management reporting to motivate rapid change (e.g., State Dept.) 8 * Many relevant tools are already being used to perform operations and maintenance functions
- 9. Continuous Monitoring in the “Cloud” • Cloud provider must provide evidence of continuous monitoring – Summary of continuous monitoring implementation—prior to engagement – Metrics from monitoring and actions taken • Cloud provider should be able to move quickly to improve security – Single provider and single control point – Less influence from cultural resistance 9
- 10. Continuous Monitoring: What’s next? • Expand number of controls implemented/monitored—build on initial capabilities and success • Leverage integration of tools to achieve true enterprise view and rapid response capability • Decrease cycle time toward ‘real time’ monitoring (from every couple of days to single digit seconds) • Fully integrate security and operations to reduce cost of operations and security 10
- 11. Final Thoughts • Federal government with industry support can lead global improvement in cyber security • Continuous Monitoring of security control implementation and enforcement is essential • In the near-term we must focus our efforts to make measurable progress • A well managed system is a harder target and costs less to operate 11 We Need to Stop the Bleeding—Now!
