In 2015, phishing related breaches dominated security news headlines, and will likely remain the leading initial point-of-entry method for 2016. Not surprisingly an upswing in security awareness spending has paralleled the rise in phishing. In this presentation we dive deep into the largest data pool of human phishing susceptibility and also new research about phishing awareness. We will also look at phishing from the attacker’s point of view and look for opportunities to be better defenders.
Let’s examine the evidence and decide if awareness is the problem. Why do users who are aware of phishing continue to fall for it? What are some of the most successful phishing themes? What are some common response rates? And finally, what can conditioned informants (your co-workers) reporting suspicious emails bring to the table?

Harry Regan - It's Never So Bad That It Can't Get Worsecentralohioissa
Disaster recovery, emergency response and business continuity plans are usually developed when no disaster exists. We think we’ve covered all contingencies. We think we’ve trained all the appropriate players. We’ve tested. We’ve re-tested. We think we’re ready to face whatever event there is looming out their with our name on it! The real world has a nasty habit of triggering disasters at the least opportune time, often featuring a twist that throws plans into disarray.
This presentation focuses on three real-world plans, each of which with a fatal flaw. We will discuss elements that should be in a plan beyond the normal guidance from the Disaster Recovery Institute (DRI) and a set of actions that should be included in planning and preparation.
Deral Heiland - Fail Now So I Don't Fail Latercentralohioissa
With network data breaches being reported weekly, it appears our implementation of prevention solutions is failing. With the average time to detect a breach being greater than 6 months our detection solutions also appear to be failing. Maybe these solutions and technologies are working correctly and we are just not training our teams how to manage, maintain, and leverage those solutions effectively. In this presentation I will be discussing security testing and validation methodologies that includes Internal/external pentesting, social engineering, and red team/blue team exercises. In addition I will be covering how using these methodologies we can better prepare and build a more robust security environment that will keep your organization off the front page.
Nothing strikes fear into the heart of an engineer more than the installation of a firewall to achieve the laudable goal of defense-in-depth through network segmentation. Security teams demand the implementation of firewalls telling everyone, “It’s for compliance!” But the addition of firewalls and other security appliances (aka chokepoints) into an infrastructure infuriates network engineers who design to optimize speed and minimize latency. Sysadmins and DBAs are equally frustrated, because of the increased complexity in building and troubleshooting applications. So it’s down the rabbit hole we go trying to achieve the unachievable with everyone waxing rhapsodic for those bygone days when the end-to-end principle ruled the Internet. Is it really possible to have security coexist with operational efficiency? Organizations seem happy to throw money at technology and operations, but when it comes to policies and procedures, they fail miserably. This is the biggest problem with building a layered design. As engineers, if we don’t have clear policies as a set of requirements, how will we determine the appropriate network segmentation and protections to put in place? The answer lies in aligning network segmentation with an organizational data classification matrix and understanding that while compliance and security often overlap, they’re not the same.
SANS Ask the Expert: An Incident Response Playbook: From Monitoring to Opera...AlienVault
As cyber attacks grow more sophisticated, many organizations are investing more into incident detection and response capabilities. Event monitoring and correlation technologies and security operations are often tied to incident handling responsibilities, but the number of attack variations is staggering, and many organizations are struggling to develop incident detection and response processes that work for different situations.
In this webcast, we'll outline the most common types of events and indicators of compromise (IOCs) that naturally feed intelligent correlation rules, and walk through a number of different incident types based on these. We'll also outline the differences in response strategies that make the most sense depending on what types of incidents may be occurring. By building a smarter incident response playbook, you'll be better equipped to detect and respond more effectively in a number of scenarios.

An intrusion prevention system (IPS) stops attacks against systems and networks by blocking unwanted actions, serving as an inline alarm system beyond firewall perimeter defenses. An IPS is not a replacement for other security measures and requires ongoing maintenance. A host-based IPS (HIPS) can stop common and unknown attacks by learning system behaviors and trapping dangerous system calls, providing defense for workstations. A network-based IPS (NIPS) is deployed at the network perimeter in front of and behind firewalls, able to block attacks inline but potentially causing bottlenecks. Both NIDS and NIPS are needed for comprehensive protection, with NIPS blocking threats and NIDS providing passive detection.
Desktop computers are designed to sit comfortably on a desk with the monitor on top, while laptops are small and portable computers that can sit on your lap.

The Three Major Goals of Cybersecurity for Business Organizations-precise tes...Precise Testing Solution
In this pdf post, we’ll discuss and understand what are these three major goals of cybersecurity which every business should have to comply with in their best practices.
The document discusses insider threats and cybersecurity. It notes that the biggest threat companies face is from insiders like employees and vendors. While doing nothing on cybersecurity risks costly data breaches and fines, companies should implement regular employee training, vet vendors thoroughly, and create a risk management plan to address vulnerabilities. The presentation provides tools to assess risks like DREAD and STRIDE models and recommends prioritizing the highest impact risks with mitigation strategies and an incident response plan.

Abstract: The cyber threat landscape is continually evolving. More and more, the critical infrastructure of our nation is at risk. Whether by nation-state actors, criminal organizations, hacktivists or any number of hackers looking to prove their skills, our safety and economic prosperity is threatened. There are four things that must be considered in order to address the evolving threats:
1- Becoming more proactive in our cyber defense efforts through intelligence
2- Better user behavior management
3- Assessing risk using meaningful metric
4- Resilience – operating through an intrusion
We need to look at the threat picture differently – in a proactive way – to ensure that CEO’s and CIO/CISO’s are on the same page regarding the threat, to allow those leaders to make better resourcing decisions and to be better prepared to mitigate adversaries when they arrive at the security perimeter. We need to integrate a wider set of intelligence into our thinking. This is critical to taking a more proactive stance in defending your networks. Combined with what you know of your own network, cyber intelligence strategically helps make solid resource planning decisions and functionally, helps your network operators better defend, mitigate and operate through cyber intrusions. The Operational Levels of Cyber Intelligence paper by the Intelligence and National Security Alliance details a better way of using intelligence.
