The document provides an overview of incident response including:
1) It defines the difference between an event and an incident, noting that all incidents are events but not all events are incidents.
2) It outlines the typical steps in an incident response framework including pre-incident preparation, detection, initial response, formulating a response strategy, investigation, reporting, and resolution.
3) It describes each step in more detail, explaining activities like assembling an incident response team, collecting data, analyzing forensic evidence, documenting findings, restoring systems, and implementing countermeasures to prevent future incidents.
Incident Response Methodology is one of the popular process to investigate the incident which is unlawful, unauthorized or unacceptable action on computer system or computer network.
Threat intelligence is information that informs enterprise defenders of adversarial elements to stop them.
It is information that is relevant to the organization, has business value, and is actionable.
If you having all data and feeds then data alone isn’t intelligence.

How to Hunt for Lateral Movement on Your NetworkSqrrl
Once inside your network, most cyber-attacks go sideways. They progressively move deeper into the network, laterally compromising other systems as they search for key assets and data. Would you spot this lateral movement on your enterprise network?
In this training session, we review the various techniques attackers use to spread through a network, which data sets you can use to reliably find them, and how data science techniques can be used to help automate the detection of lateral movement.
Introduction to Cyber forensics: Information Security Investigations, Corporate Cyber Forensics, Scientific method in forensic analysis, investigating large scale Data breach cases.

The New Pentest? Rise of the Compromise AssessmentInfocyte
If an attacker had a foothold in your network today, would you know it?
If they made it past your real-time defense measures (EDR, EPP, AV, UEBA, firewalls, etc.) or an analyst misinterpreted a critical alert, chances are they've entrenched themselves for the long haul. Skilled and organized attackers know long-term persistence in your network is the most critical component to meeting their goal of stealing information, causing damage, or pivoting attacks on other organizations.
Threat hunting is the proactive practice of finding attackers in your environment before they can cause damage (or at least stop the bleeding from continued exposure). Unfortunately, effective threat hunting practices remain out-of-reach for most organizations due to lack of security infrastructure and qualified people to manage advanced endpoint security solutions.
One solution to this problem is to hire a third party to conduct a periodic assessment geared toward discovery of unauthorized access and compromised systems. This is called a "compromise assessment" and just recently compromise assessments have become one of the most requested services from top security service providers.
Customers don’t want to just know if they can be hacked (a good penetration tester will generally conclude “yes”) they want to know if they ARE hacked—right now—and if so, what endpoints/hosts/servers on their network are compromised.
In this presentation, which was originally prepared for Black Hat 2018, Chris Gerritz outlines the growing practice of compromise assessments and the best practices being utilized by some of the largest and most sophisticated managed security service providers (MSSPs) with this offering.
What approaches are most effective?
What data is being utilized?
What are some of the top challenges?

Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) primarily focuses on analysing raw data gathered from recent and past events to monitor, detect and prevent threats to an organisation, shifting the focus from reactive to preventive intelligent security measures.
Cyber Threat Intelligence is a process in which information from different sources is collected, then analyzed to identify and detect threats against any environment. The information collected could be evidence-based knowledge that could support the context, mechanism, indicators, or implications about an already existing threat against an environment, and/or the knowledge about an upcoming threat that could potentially affect the environment.

With more than 50,000 new malware created every day organisations can no longer afford to risk the financial and reputational impacts of a security or data breach, which can be too much for a business to recover from. Because of this, IT managers face increasing scrutiny and pressure from CEOs, managing directors and boards to prove that they are keeping the organisation secure.
The changing threat landscape means organisations need to be vigilant and smarter about security. While businesses still face threats from infected devices and malware, attackers have also moved beyond that. For example, there is an increasing number of targeted email attacks with cyber criminals spending time to monitor communications so they can imitate emails that are so sophisticated that even relatively savvy users will open them.
This webinar will explore the building blocks required to ensure you have the roadmap required to best protection against cyber attacks. We will provide you with a high level view of the following topics:
· Audit and discovery – What are your weaknesses and are you compliant?
· Education – Do your employees know when not to open that attachment?
· Policy – Do you have the right policies for your industry?
· Technology – Where to start and what has changed?

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
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.

3. EventVS Incident
• Event:An event is an observed change to the normal behaviour of a system,
environment, process, workflow or person. Examples: routerACL's were
updated, firewall policy was pushed.
• Incident: An incident is a human-caused, malicious event that leads to (or
may lead to) a significant disruption of business. Examples: attacker posts
company credentials online, attacker steals customer credit card database.
•Note: All incidents are events, but all events are not
incidents.
6. Incident Response
• Pre-incident preparation Take actions to prepare the organization and the CSIRT
before an incident occurs.
• Detection of incidents Identify a potential computer security incident.
• Initial response Perform an initial investigation, recording the basic details
surrounding the incident, assembling the incident response team, and notifying the
individuals who need to know about the incident.
• Formulate response strategy Based on the results of all the known facts, determine
the best response and obtain management approval. Determine what civil, criminal,
administrative, or other actions are appropriate to take, based on the conclusions
drawn from the investigation.
7. Incident Response (Cont...)
• Investigate the incident Perform a thorough collection of data. Review the
data collected to determine what happened, when it happened, who did it,
and how it can be prevented in the future.
• Reporting Accurately report information about the investigation in a manner
useful to decision makers.
• Resolution Employ security measures and procedural changes, record
lessons learned, and develop long-term fixes for any problems identified.
8. Pre-Incident Preparation
• Preparation leads to successful incident response. During this phase, organization needs to
prepare both the organization itself as a whole and the CSIRT members, prior to responding
to a computer security incident.
• Preparing the CSIRT
The CSIRT is defined during the pre-incident preparation phase. Your organization will assemble a team of
experts to handle any incidents that occur. Preparing the CSIRT includes considering at least the following:
• The hardware needed to investigate computer security incidents
• The software needed to investigate computer security incidents
• The documentation (forms and reports) needed to investigate computer security incidents
• The appropriate policies and operating procedures to implement your response strategies
• The training your staff or employees require to perform incident response in a manner that promotes
successful forensics, investigations, and remediation.
9. Detection of Incidents
• No matter how you detect an incident, it is paramount to record all of the known
details. An initial response checklist to make sure you record the pertinent facts. The
initial response checklist should account for many details, not all of which will be
readily discernible immediately after an incident is detected. Record the known
facts. Some of the critical details include the following:
• Current time and date
• Who/what reported the incident
• Nature of the incident
• When the incident occurred
• Hardware/software involved
• Points of contact for involved personnel
11. Initial Response
• One of the first steps of any investigation is to obtain enough information
an appropriate response.
• Assembling the CSIRT
• Collecting network-based and other data
• Determining the type of incident that has occurred
• Assessing the impact of the incident.
• Initial Response will not involve touching the affected system.
12. Formulate a Response Strategy
• Considering theTotality of Circumstances
• How many resources are need to investigate an incident?
• How critical are the affected systems?
• How sensitive is the compromised or stolen information?
• Who are the potential perpetrators?
• What is the apparent skill of the attacker?
• How much system and user downtime is involved?
• What is the overall loss?
14. Formulate a Response Strategy (Cont..)
• Response Strategy option should be quantified with pros and cons related to the
following:
• Estimated loss
• Network downtime and its operations.
• User downtime and its impact to operations.
• Whether or not your organization is legally compelled to take certain action.
• Public disclosure of the incident and its impact to the organization's reputation/business.
• Taking Action
• Legal Action
• Administrative Action
15. Investigate the Incident
• The investigation phase involves determining the who, what, when, where,
how, and why surrounding an incident.
• A computer security investigation can be divided into two phases:
• Data Collection
• Forensic Analysis
18. Reporting
• Reports accurately describe the details of an incident, that are understandable to decision
makers, that can withstand the barrage of legal scrutiny, and that are produced in a timely
manner.
• Some guidelines to ensure that the reporting phase does not become your CSIRT’s nemesis:
• Document immediately All investigative steps and conclusions need to be documented as soon as possible.
Writing something clearly and concisely at the moment you discover evidence saves time, promotes
accuracy, and ensures that the details of the investigation can be communicated more clearly to others at
any moment, which is critical if new personnel become involved or are assigned to lead the investigation.
• Write concisely and clearly Enforce the “write it tight” philosphy. Documenting investigative steps requires
discipline and organization. Write everything down in a fashion that is understandable to you and others.
Discourage shorthand or shortcuts. Vague notations, incomplete scribbling, and other unclear
documentation can lead to redundant efforts, forced translation of notes, confirmation of notes, and a
failure to comprehend notes made by yourself or others.
• Use a standard format Develop a format for your reports and stick to it. Create forms, outlines, and
templates that organize the response process and foster the recording of all pertinent data.This makes
report writing scalable, saves time, and promotes accuracy.
19. Resolution
• The goal of the resolution phase is to implement host-based, network-based, and
procedural countermeasures to prevent an incident from causing further damage and to
return your organization to a secure, healthy operational status. In other words, in this
phase, you contain the problem, solve the problem, and take steps to prevent the problem
from occurring again.
• The following steps are often taken to resolve a computer security incident:
• Identify organization’s top priorities. Which of the following is the most critical to resolve: returning all
systems to operational status, ensuring data integrity, containing the impact of the incident,
collecting evidence, or avoiding public disclosure?
• Determine the nature of the incident in enough detail to understand how the security occurred and
what host-based and network-based remedies are required to address it.
• Determine if there are underlying or systemic causes for the incident that need to be addressed (lack
of standards, noncompliance with standards, and so on).
20. Resolution (Cont...)
• Restore any affected or compromised systems. You may need to rely on a prior version of
the data, server platform software, or application software as needed to ensure that the
system performs as you expect it to perform.
• Apply corrections required to address any host-based vulnerabilities. Note that all fixes
should be tested in a lab environment before being applied to production systems.
• Apply network-based countermeasures such as access control lists, firewalls, or IDS.
• Assign responsibility for correcting any systemic issues.
• Track progress on all corrections that are required, especially if they will take significant
time to complete.
• Validate that all remedial steps or countermeasures are effective. In other words, verify that
all the host-based, network-based, and systemic remedies have been applied correctly.
• Update your security policy and procedures as needed to improve your response process.
