The smallest element in a botnet is a bot. The behavior of a bot can change dynamically based on the decision of the botmaster. Botnets are driven by profit, consequently, bots are expected to be profitable. If goals are not as expected, the bots can be instructed to switch their behavior to serve a better purpose. The aim of this talk is to present a detailed analysis of a network traffic capture of a machine originally infected by a Gamarue variant. The analysis will uncover the behavior of the bot since the initial infection, inactivity period, delivery of new payloads and the following switch of behavior of the bot. Additionally, we will present details on a barely known new botnet capable of performing horizontal brute-forcing of WordPress-based websites.
Why Its time to Upgrade a Next-Generation FirewallAli Kapucu
The bad guys keep getting better. They have found out advanced techniques that get
around our old defenses. Scanning for their signatures was enough for a while, but not
now. We can no longer just lock a few ports and feel safe at night. An application port can change everyday. These security bandits hijack IP addresses, hiding behind legitimate people to launch their attacks. Stopping them has gotten harder; our defenses have become more durable. Older enterprise firewalls and IPS are not enough anymore.
Next generation firewall(ngfw)feature and benefitsAnthony Daniel
Cyberoam NGFWs offer actionable intelligence and controls to enterprises that allow complete security controls over L2-L8 for their future-ready security. The next-generation security features in Cyberoam NGFWs protect networks against newly-evolving threats.
Unified Threat Management (UTM) or Unified Security Management (USM), is a solution in the network security industry, and since 2004 it has gained currency as a primary network gateway defense solution for organizations.
In theory, UTM is the evolution of the traditional firewall into an all-inclusive security product able to perform multiple security functions within one single appliance: network firewalling, network intrusion prevention and gateway antivirus (AV), gateway anti-spam, VPN, content filtering, load balancing, data leak prevention and on-appliance reporting.

In computing, a firewall is a software or hardware-based network security system that controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic by analyzing the data packets and determining whether they should be allowed through or not, based on a rule set. A firewall establishes a barrier between a trusted, secure internal network and another network (e.g., the Internet) that is not assumed to be secure and trusted.

Watchtowers of the Internet: Analysis of Outbound Malware Communication, Stephan Chenette, Principal Security Researcher, (@StephanChenette) & Armin Buescher, Security Researcher
With advanced malware, targeted attacks, and advanced persistent threats, it’s not IF but WHEN a persistant attacker will penetrate your network and install malware on your company’s network and desktop computers. To get the full picture of the threat landscape created by malware, our malware sandbox lab runs over 30,000 malware samples a day. Network traffic is subsequently analyzed using heuristics and machine learning techniques to statistically score any outbound communication and identify command & control, back-channel, worm-like and other types of traffic used by malware.
Our talk will focus on the setup of the lab, major malware families as well as outlier malware, and the statistics we have generated to give our audience an exposure like never before into the details of malicious outbound communication. We will provide several tips, based on our analysis to help you create a safer and more secure network.
Stephan Chenette is a principal security researcher at Websense Security Labs, specializing in research tools and next generation emerging threats. In this role, he identifies and implements exploit and malcode detection techniques.
Armin Buescher is a Security Researcher and Software Engineer experienced in strategic development of detection/prevention technologies and analysis tools. Graduated as Dipl.-Inf. (MSc) with thesis on Client Honeypot systems. Interested in academic research work and published author of security research papers.

Ethical hacking also known as penetration testing or white-hat hacking, involves the same tools, tricks, and techniques that hackers use, but with one major difference that Ethical hacking is legal. Ethical hacking is performed with the target’s permission. The intent of ethical hacking is to discover vulnerabilities from a hacker’s
viewpoint so systems can be better secured. It’s part of an overall information risk management program that allows for ongoing security improvements. Ethical hacking can also ensure that vendors’ claims about the security of their products are legitimate.

Getting your hands dirty: How to Analyze the Behavior of Malware Traffic / SE...Security Session
This two hours workshop will show how to analyze network traffic in order to decide if a computer was infected with malware. This is a very hard task since current malware tries to hide by mimicking normal traffic. We will present several cases where you will have to discover the true infected machine from a group. The goal of the workshop is to transmit the analysis skills necessary to differentiate the suspicious connections from the normal ones and to finally discover the malware behaviors.

Robots against robots: How a Machine Learning IDS detected a novel Linux Botn...Security Session
If small botnets are difficult to detect, small Linux botnets staying under the radar are more difficult. This talk describes how we detected a novel Linux botnet in a large organization by analyzing the network connections patterns with our behavioral detection system. The botnet exploits web servers and uses obfuscated python scripts to receive commands. Our behavioral IPS, called Stratosphere, was able to detect the botnet by creating machine learning models of real malware behaviors and then using those models to detect similar behaviors in other networks. From the first indicators of compromise to the final remediation, we will share our analysis, the attack methodologies observed and tools used.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

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.
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.

• Education is the only long term solution.
27. Cisco Cognitive Threat Analytics (CTA) is a cloud-based breach detection and analytics
technology focused on discovering novel and emerging threats by identifying C&C
activity of malware. CTA processes web access logs from the Cisco Cloud Web Security
(CWS), Cisco Web Security Appliance (WSA), or 3rd party web proxies such as Blue
Coat ProxySG. CTA reduces time to discovery (TTD) of threats operating inside the
network. It addresses gaps in perimeter-based defenses by identifying the symptoms of
a malware infection or data breach using behavioral analysis and anomaly detection. The
technology relies on advanced statistical modeling and machine learning to
independently identify new threats, while constantly learning from what it sees and
adapting over time. Through additional careful correlation, CTA presents 100%
confirmed breaches to keep security teams focused on the particular devices that
require a remediation. Focusing on C&C activity detection, CTA addresses a security
visibility gap by discovering threats that may have entirely bypassed web as an infection
vector (infections delivered through email, infected USB stick, BYOD).
