Host-based IDS systems, or HIDS, work by monitoring activity that is occurring internally on a host. HIDS look for unusual or nefarious activity by examining logs created by the operating system, looking for changes made to key system files, tracking installed software, and sometimes examining the network connections a host makes. AlienVault USM features a complete integration of OSSEC, one of the most popular and effective open source HIDS tools.
In this live demo, we'll show you how USM helps you get more out of OSSEC with:
Remote agent deployment, configuration and management
Behavioral monitoring of OSSEC clients
Logging and reporting for PCI compliance
Data correlation with IP reputation data, vulnerability scans and more
We'll finish up by showing a demo of how OSSEC alert correlation can be used to detect brute force attacks with USM
Talking about Next-Gen Security Operation Center for IDNIC+APJII as representative from IDSECCONF. People-Centric SOC requires lot of investment on human in terms of quantity and quality, unfortunately, (good) IT security people are getting rare these days. Organisation need to put their investments more on technology, as in Industry 4.0, machines are getting more advanced to support Human on doing continuous and repetitive task.
Moving from “traditional” to next-gen SOC require proper plan, thats what this talk was about.
Security Operations Center (SOC) Essentials for the SMEAlienVault
Closing the gaps in security controls, systems, people and processes is not an easy feat, particularly for IT practitioners in smaller organizations with limited budgets and few (if any) dedicated security staff. So, what are the essential security capabilities needed to establish a security operations center and start closing those gaps?
Join Javvad Malik of 451 Research and Patrick Bedwell, VP of Product Marketing at AlienVault for this session covering:
*Developments in the threat landscape driving a shift from preventative to detective controls
*Essential security controls needed to defend against modern threats

Definition
Gartner defines a SOC as both a team, often operating in shifts around the clock, and a facility dedicated to and organized to prevent, detect, assess and respond to cybersecurity threats and incidents, and to fulfill and assess regulatory compliance. The term "cybersecurity operation center "is often used synonymously for SOC.
A network operations center (NOC) is not a SOC, which focuses on network device management rather than detecting and responding to cybersecurity incidents. Coordination between the two is common, however.
A managed security service is not the same as having a SOC — although a service provider may offer services from a SOC. A managed service is a shared resource and not solely dedicated to a single organization or entity. Similarly, there is no such thing as a managed SOC.
Most of the technologies, processes and best practices that are used in a SOC are not specific to a SOC. Incident response or vulnerability management remain the same, whether delivered from a SOC or not. It is a meta-topic, involving many security domains and disciplines, and depending on the services and functions that are delivered by the SOC.
Services that often reside in a SOC are:
• Cyber security incident response
• Malware analysis
• Forensic analysis
• Threat intelligence analysis
• Risk analytics and attack path modeling
• Countermeasure implementation
• Vulnerability assessment
• Vulnerability analysis
• Penetration testing
• Remediation prioritization and coordination
• Security intelligence collection and fusion
• Security architecture design
• Security consulting
• Security awareness training
• Security audit data collection and distribution

As threats are increasingly more sophisticated and targeted, traditional anti-virus detection is struggling to keep up. The traditional approach focuses on using fingerprint signatures of known malware to identify malware in the enterprise. This method of fingerprinting for detection is not only easily evaded, but it provides limited value to detecting targeted attacks against companies and emerging threats.
To combat this problem, Invincea developed a novel method for detecting and analyzing previously unknown malware and 0-day exploits. The advanced detection approach runs in conjunction with Invincea’s secure virtual container, which is used to isolate the operating system and user data from exploits against vulnerable applications. By running high-risk apps like web browsers in a secure container, no prior knowledge, including signatures and IOCs of threats is required in order to prevent their damage to the system and loss of data.

The State of Incident Response - INFOGRAPHICAlienVault
Incident Response (IR) teams are designed to detect, investigate and, when necessary, perform remediation in the event of a critical incident. The results of the 2015 SANS Incident Response Survey provides a picture of what IR teams are up against today—the types of attacks they see, what defenses they have in place to detect and respond to these threats, and their perceived effectiveness and obstacles to incident handling.
Some key challenges reported by responders to the survey were:
66% cited a skills shortage as being an impediment to effective IR:
54% cited budgetary shortages for tools and technology
45% noted lack of visibility into system or domain events
41% noted a lack of procedural reviews and practice
37% have trouble distinguishing malicious events from nonevents
Do these challenges sound familiar? Download the full survey to learn more about how other organizations are approaching incident response, along with best practices and advice. Visit http://ow.ly/R3Cr0

With malware accounting for at least 40% of all breaches, knowing how malware works can be an extremely valuable asset in your threat detection cache – especially for the incident responder. According to Verizon’s 2013 Data Breach Investigations Report, “Malware and hacking still rank as the most common [threat] actions”. In general, malware can range from being simple annoyances like pop-up advertising to causing serious damage like stealing passwords and data or infecting other machines on the network.
Malware is as old as software itself and although there are new types of malware constantly under development, they generally fall into a few broad categories. Check out this SlideShare to learn how malware works, and what we believe are the most common types of malware you should be prepared for.
By learning how malware works and recognizing its different types, you’ll understand:
- How they find their way into your network
- How attackers control them remotely
- How they use your systems for nefarious purposes
- And most importantly, the security controls you need to effectively defend against and detect malware infections. (Hint: you need more than antivirus!)

In this SlideShare, we’ll share the AWS Security Best Practices for securing AWS environments, as well as some of the trends our research has shown with regard to attacks on those environments. We'll also introduce the key capabilities needed for a modern threat detection & incident response program customized for AWS, and other AWS Security Best Practices including:
-Asset Discovery - creating an inventory of running instances
-Vulnerability Assessment - conducting scans to assess exposure to attack, and prioritize risks
-Change Management - detect changes in your AWS environment and insecure network access control configurations
-S3 & ELB Access Log Monitoring - Monitor access logs of hosted content and data directed at your instance
-CloudTrail Monitoring and Alerting - Monitor the CloudTrail service for abnormal behavior
-Windows Event Monitoring - Analyze system level behavior to detect advanced threats
With more IT environments moving data and applications to AWS, the motivation for hackers to target AWS environments is also increasing. We believe these AWS Security Best Practices will be a valuable addition to every security practitioner’s playbook.
We'll finish up with a demo of NEW AlienVault USM for AWS, which delivers all of the above capabilities, plus log management & event correlation to help you detect threats quickly and comply with regulatory requirements.

Alien vault sans cyber threat intelligenceAlienVault
Over the last several years, we have seen that attackers are innovating much faster than defenders are. This trend is steering many companies to look towards cyber threat intelligence (CTI) to help them navigate today’s threatening landscape. SANS conducted a survey this year to explore who is using cyber threat intelligence and how they are using it. The survey collected responses from 326 IT professionals working in a variety of industries, in all sizes and from many different regions. 69% of the respondents reported implementing CTI to some extent, with only 16% planning not to pursue CTI in their environments. Which side of this percentage do you fall into? The infographic below provides some of the key questions to ask when getting started with threat intelligence, along with data from the SANS survey to show you how others are using threat intelligence.
