2014 Security Trends: SIEM, Endpoint Security, Data Loss, Mobile Devices and ...Lumension
Thanks to you, the audience at UltimateWindowsSecurity, for the 2014 Survey. It was a great success with over 600 respondents! I appreciate all of you who took the time give me your thoughts.
You’ve provided some great ideas for real training for free™ in the coming year and I’ve learned which topics are most important to you. That’s going to benefit all of us.
In this presentation, we'll present our findings. We’ll talk about the community’s top goals for 2014, which topics you recommended I cover in 2014 and what our community sees as the greatest security concerns for 2014. And we’ll discuss other trends emerging from the data.
Find out about the top trends, such as:
SIEM – What are the top SIEM solutions? What is the UWS community’s top 3 biggest challenges with log/monitoring/security analytics?
Endpoint Security – How widely is application whitelisting being used and what is driving its adoption? Which endpoint security technologies really work and which are just hype?
Mobile Devices – Are employee owned mobile devices supported at your organization? Is your biggest concern with mobile devices malware, data loss, compliance?
The Cloud – How widely are your peers embracing the cloud? Is your organization’s security policy, technology and training keeping up with the move to the cloud?
Advanced Security Topics – What are your peers doing about “big data”? What about endpoints as sensors, and other new security approaches?
This will be a fact-filled and fascinating presentation on where we are and where we are going on a host of different security fronts. Don’t miss it.

Gomez Mobile Web User Experience Survey - Why The Mobile Web Is Disappointing...Compuware APM
One thing is clear — the mobile web has crossed the chasm — to the benefit of organizations everywhere. According to The Nielsen Company web visitors using a mobile device increased from 42.5 million in July 2008 to 56.9 million in July 2009. Yet what are mobile users’ expectations and how do they characterize the current mobile web experience?
To find out, Gomez, Inc. commissioned Equation Research to conduct a study of consumers’ mobile Internet usage and perceptions. The survey of 1001 mobile Web users found that mobile users have high expectations for mobile Web performance. Ultimately, the majority stated they expect Web sites to load as quickly, almost as quickly, or faster on their mobile phone, compared to their home or work computer. It also discovered that unsatisfactory mobile Web experiences not only have a negative impact on your revenue but increase your customer support costs and damage your brand equity.
The wide variety of smartphones, tablets, laptops and other mobile devices used on campus by students and faculty create a significant opportunity for anytime, anywhere learning.

CompTIA’s new Trends in Cloud Computing study shows that while well over 90 percent of companies still claim to use some form of cloud computing, the pace of progress appears to have slowed. In some cases, it even appears to have taken a step backwards. What accounts for this phenomenon? Why does it seem like attitudes towards cloud have cooled, even though cloud continues to be a primary factor in IT growth? Download this study today and learn more about the state of the cloud.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
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.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
