Business Geekdom: 1 = 3 = 5
Each year a security team participates in several audits, meetings with the business and strategy meetings. Often times, security is seen as one imposing requirements that are either too difficult, impossible to manage or flat out ridiculous.
This is similar to a geek. A geek is defined, as, "an unfashionable or socially inept person." Is this socially ineptness actually just the lack of the ability to translate the passion of the security professional to the business professional?
In this presentation, I would like to cover how to create, establish and evangelize a framework that has one backend with several frontends. The backend is a common security control framework (not the UCF) and the front end translates to the various business units, audits and business strategies encountered in a security professionals profession each year.

Layered Security / Defense in Depth
One area that I have found that even seasoned security professionals have a problem with articulating is layered security (defense in depth). Most are familiar with their area of expertise (servers, networks, pen testing, etc.), but have never viewed security as a heterogeneous process. In my presentation I use a layered diagram to highlight what controls are in what layers, what controls interact across layers, and what a complete layered security model would look like vs. what a more typical company security model does look like.

It comes to no surprise, that any micro-services, any security controls you use to build applications – will eventually be broken (or fail). Under certain pressure, some components will fail together.
The question is – how do we build our systems in a way that security incidents won't happen even if some components fail. And the data leaks won't occur even if penetration tests are successful. "Defense in depth is a security engineering pattern, that suggests building an independent set of security controls aimed at mitigating more risks even if the attacker crosses the outer perimeter. During the talk, we will model threats and risks for the modern web application, and improve it by building multiple lines of defense. We will overview high-level patterns and exact tools from the security engineering world and explain them to the modern web devs ;)

Introducing the Vulnerability Management Maturity Model - VM3
The information security landscape has evolved significantly during the last 5 years with the emergence and wider use of new technologies such as Cloud, BYOD, Mobile and the Internet of Things. Alongside this landscape, corporate organizations‰Ûª key defense leaders, CIOs, CSOs and CISOs, have evolved in their information security defense strategies, as well as in how they think and approach information security. This different and evolved landscape, combined with defense leaders‰Ûª new mindset, has influenced key information security processes and in particular, has resulted in a greater understanding of the process of Vulnerability Management.
This session presents a Vulnerability Management Maturity Model, referred to as VM3, and which identifies six different levels of vulnerability management maturity within which different organizations operate. Detailed findings and lessons learned from of a recent study on vulnerability management maturity are shared.
The session covers the six high level activities, as well as a surrounding business environment which characterize an organization's execution of the vulnerability management process. Key challenges present within each of the six high level activities of vulnerability management, as well as challenges imposed by the organization's surrounding business environment are identified and described. Attendees will learn and appreciate how these key challenges impede one's ability to achieve higher levels of maturity, as well as strategies on overcoming these identified challenges. Attendees will learn how they may help their organization evolve to higher levels of vulnerability management maturity, with the goal of achieving lower levels of information security risk.

The Art of Evading Anti-Virus
There are estimates that security analysts, to include penetration testers, are approximately 5 years behind malicious actors. Anti-virus by itself isn’t enough to stop a malicious individual from gaining access to your servers or computers anymore. In fact many of them have devised ways to evade anti-viruses. We as security professionals should understand how these individuals are doing this, and what tools are available for us to replicate these attacks. Tools such as veil-framework assist us with this. This talk will go over this tool, and how malicious individuals evade anti-viruses with ease.

Intelligent Segmentation: Protecting the Enterprise with StealthWatch, Cisco ...Lancope, Inc.
Intelligent Segmentation: Protecting the Enterprise with StealthWatch, Cisco ISE and TrustSec
Recent breaches have demonstrated that insider threats and determined attackers are effectively able to operate on the network interior where they can wreak havoc on an organization. As a result, it has become necessary to implement security policies inside the network. This webinar describes a data intelligence-driven approach to dynamically segmenting the network to control threats and protect the enterprise through the use of NetFlow and Lancope’s StealthWatch® System in combination with Cisco ISE and TrustSec.
This webinar will cover:
• design and deployment scenarios
• use cases
• best practices
• configuration examples
• forward-leaning vision
The primary takeaway of this webinar is a methodology for leveraging StealthWatch to drive segmentation policies and control threats on the network interior.
Detecting and Catching the Bad Guys Using Deception
Traditional controls are well known for their short comings in the face of modern cyber-attacks. Cyber security technologies will make use of signature based, behavioral, Next Generation capabilities or attempt to augment capabilities by leveraging cloud based or on premise cyber analytics warehouse and threat intelligence feeds via indicator of compromise (IOC) or other mechanisms. Although the later efforts have increased organizational cyber capabilities, they only do so with proper investments in people, process and technology. Additionally, as attackers adapt to defenses, these controls begin to experience decreasing marginal rates of defensive capability.
Deception programs, architectures and technologies endeavor to augment existing cyber security capabilities through the use of honeypots or honey net (decoys) or breadcrumbs or broken glass (deceptions).
Advanced deception technologies are differentiated by the use of distributed deception technology which features agentless, simple deployment capabilities with lightweight deceptions that leverage operating system objects deceive attackers into triggering alerts. Normal users would never trigger the deceptions as an attacker would, resulting in high fidelity alerting with near-zero false positives. Such technology consequently serves to not only augment cyber security capabilities post-breach but provides a new, highly effective post-breach cyber security capability along with precise real-time forensics.

A Brief History of Cryptographic Failures
Cryptography is hard. It's not hard in the way a challenging video game is, or hard like getting through War and Peace without falling asleep, or even hard like learning a new skill. Cryptography is hard because it's both a system and a technical implementation, and failures in either part can have catastrophic (and sometimes existential) impacts. In this talk we'll take a look at some of the many ways that cryptographic systems have failed over the years, from accidental design flaws like the Data Encryption Standard (DES) defeat so elegantly demonstrated by the Electronic Frontier Foundation to intentional design flaws such as the reported National Security Agency (NSA) backdoor in the Dual Elliptic Curve (EC) Deterministic Random Bit Generator (DRBG). This talk will be a high-level discussion... no PhD in mathematics is required!

My Other Marathon
When it comes to enterprise IT applications, what happens before you purchase the software can significantly impact your business even after it is installed with the best security controls. Learn what software developers should be doing to ensure their code is free from vulnerabilities before you ever put their products into an operational environment. People, processes, and technology needed to run a successful software security program and incident response team (PSIRT) will be covered. The tasks required to do this have been adapted to both waterfall and agile development methodologies. Each task will be compared to my recent journey of running my first 100 mile ultra-marathon. I will answer the question: “Which is less painful, developing secure software or running a 100 mile race?”
Wireless Infusion Pumps: Securing Hospitals’ Most Ubiquitous Medical DevicePriyanka Aash
Imagine being dependent on a wireless infusion pump to receive the correct dosage of life-supporting medication. Now imagine the implications, were that pump to be maliciously hacked. In this session learn more about how to successfully secure these medical devices, based on work being conducted at the National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE) with premier health care organizations.

The idea of a more connected world is an exciting prospect. The proliferation of Internet-enabled cars, appliances, medical devices, thermostats, and so on has already changed the way we live and will only continue grow. Unfortunately, these devices are expanding an already large attack surface, and cybercriminals are eager to exploit them.
If we do not prepare for this influx of new, specialized devices on our networks, the Internet of Things (IoT) will leave gaping holes in our cybersecurity practices. But securing these many devices is a daunting task for even the bravest security professional.
Join Keith Wilson of Cisco Security for a webinar to discuss the security challenges related to IoT. Topics covered include:
-Why IoT devices can be difficult to secure
-Industries already affected by this trend such as health care, manufacturing, financial services and retail
-The various approaches to securing these devices
-How you can best keep IoT devices from becoming a security liability
Understand the concepts of the NIST Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). We will use a parenting analogy and show how it applies to protecting file as an enterprise resource.
In 2018, Zero Trust Security gained popularity due to its simplicity and effectiveness. Yet despite a rise in awareness, many organizations still don’t know where to start or are slow to adopt a Zero Trust approach.
The result? Breaches affected as many as 66% of companies just last year. And as hackers become more sophisticated and resourceful, the number of breaches will continue to rise.
Unless organizations adopt Zero Trust Security. In 2019, take some time to assess your company’s risk factors and learn how to implement Zero Trust Security in your organization.
A New Security Paradigm for IoT (Internet of Threats)Priyanka Aash
All facets of computing have changed since the 1950s, except the security posture of our systems; nowhere is this more the case than in mobile and IoT. Some of our security foundations are outdated: chief among them “static” security, which assumes the threat landscape is static and predetermined. This session will describe the old static security paradigm and the new one: analytics-driven security.

This discussion will detail best practices and recommendations for using your Application Performance Management / Network Performance Management solutions. The focus is to work in tandem and compliment existing Cyber Security solutions.
If you follow the trade press, one theme you hear over and over again is that organizations are drowning in alerts. It’s true that we need technological solutions to prioritize and escalate the most important alerts to our analysts, but the humans have a critical part to play in this process as well. The quicker they are able to make decisions about the alerts they review, the better they are able to keep up. An incident responders’ most common task is alert triage, the process of investigation and escalation that ultimately results in the creation of security incidents. As crucial as this process is, there has been remarkably little written about how to do it correctly and efficiently. In this presentation, learn incident response best practices from Sqrrl security expert, David Bianco.
Artifacts Are for Archaeologists: Why Hunting for Malware Isn't Enough
Spoiler Alert: It's because attackers can (and do) abuse legitimate software, administrative tools, and scripting environments which are considered benign and not caught by traditional antivirus software. Since attackers can use legitimate software to conduct their nefarious behavior, how do you catch them? It’s simple: Look for the behavior.
LightCyber's Behavioral Attack Detection platform detects and highlights the network behaviors of attackers that have penetrated the perimeter. This provides visibility that allows security teams to locate and eradicate network intruders quickly, regardless of what tools the attackers are using to achieve their goals. With LightCyber's Network-to-Process Association technology, attacker behaviors can be tracked back to the exact process that originated the behavior.
We will discuss the top tools that have been detected and associated with attacker behavior inside of LightCyber customer environments, all of which are legitimate software. There will also be an overview of how LightCyber Magna works.
Mark Overholser has been a lifelong technology enthusiast, and made his passion his career. After working for many years at a multi-billion-dollar medical supply manufacturer and distributor using technology to achieve business goals, he started to wonder about what sorts of controls were in place to help make sure technology would only do good, not harm. One thing led to another, and he then was one of the first members of the new information security team. After working hard to grow the team and build the information security practice, he left to take a breather and now is working to help information security teams everywhere understand threats and get the most out of their defensive technologies.
Rethinking Application Security for cloud-native eraPriyanka Aash
Cloud native applications are API driven and are based on distributed microservices. APIs are the gateway to your business and expose a lot of the business logic to the outside world. Legacy solutions to understand your applications security posture are not applicable to these modern continuously changing environments
Between The Keyboard And The Chair - Cybersecurity's Secret Weapon
People are usually dismissed as Cybersecurity's weakest link, but what if they weren't? What if instead they could be a secret weapon? This session will focus on moving away from basic cybersecurity awareness toward building a comprehensive cybersecurity wellness program that uses communication, recognition, and incentives to build relationships with employees. In turn, the presentation will also examine the measurable return on investment for cybersecurity education as compared with the traditional investment in technology controls.

If you follow the trade press, one theme you hear over and over again is that organizations are drowning in alerts. It’s true that we need technological solutions to prioritize and escalate the most important alerts to our analysts, but the humans have a critical part to play in this process as well. The quicker they are able to make decisions about the alerts they review, the better they are able to keep up. An incident responders’ most common task is alert triage, the process of investigation and escalation that ultimately results in the creation of security incidents. As crucial as this process is, there has been remarkably little written about how to do it correctly and efficiently. In this presentation, learn incident response best practices from Sqrrl security expert, David Bianco.
Artifacts Are for Archaeologists: Why Hunting for Malware Isn't Enough
Spoiler Alert: It's because attackers can (and do) abuse legitimate software, administrative tools, and scripting environments which are considered benign and not caught by traditional antivirus software. Since attackers can use legitimate software to conduct their nefarious behavior, how do you catch them? It’s simple: Look for the behavior.
LightCyber's Behavioral Attack Detection platform detects and highlights the network behaviors of attackers that have penetrated the perimeter. This provides visibility that allows security teams to locate and eradicate network intruders quickly, regardless of what tools the attackers are using to achieve their goals. With LightCyber's Network-to-Process Association technology, attacker behaviors can be tracked back to the exact process that originated the behavior.
We will discuss the top tools that have been detected and associated with attacker behavior inside of LightCyber customer environments, all of which are legitimate software. There will also be an overview of how LightCyber Magna works.
Mark Overholser has been a lifelong technology enthusiast, and made his passion his career. After working for many years at a multi-billion-dollar medical supply manufacturer and distributor using technology to achieve business goals, he started to wonder about what sorts of controls were in place to help make sure technology would only do good, not harm. One thing led to another, and he then was one of the first members of the new information security team. After working hard to grow the team and build the information security practice, he left to take a breather and now is working to help information security teams everywhere understand threats and get the most out of their defensive technologies.
Rethinking Application Security for cloud-native eraPriyanka Aash
Cloud native applications are API driven and are based on distributed microservices. APIs are the gateway to your business and expose a lot of the business logic to the outside world. Legacy solutions to understand your applications security posture are not applicable to these modern continuously changing environments
Between The Keyboard And The Chair - Cybersecurity's Secret Weapon
People are usually dismissed as Cybersecurity's weakest link, but what if they weren't? What if instead they could be a secret weapon? This session will focus on moving away from basic cybersecurity awareness toward building a comprehensive cybersecurity wellness program that uses communication, recognition, and incentives to build relationships with employees. In turn, the presentation will also examine the measurable return on investment for cybersecurity education as compared with the traditional investment in technology controls.

User and Entity behavior analytics (UEBA) and identity analytics (IdA) created from behavior-based machine learning models are changing security methodologies and architecture in many domains. UEBA and IdA are converging with SIEM, IAM, DLP, CASB and EDR solution areas to impact security solution design and functionality. The shift includes moving from a declarative rules and roles-based environment into behavior-based risk scoring to determine intelligent roles, adaptive access, plus predicting and detecting insiders, account hijacking, data exfiltration and cloud access and abuse. We are surrounded by many uses of machine learning in our daily lives and until only recently are security solutions catching up to this force multiplier.
Attendees will learn the following:
• The shift from declarative rules and roles to machine learning models
• Understanding excess access risks, outliers and intelligent roles
• How machine learning models predict and detect unknown threats
• The importance of dynamic peer groups in clustering and outlier machine learning
• Migrating to adaptive access and risk-based access reviews
• Driving deterrence and detection with self-audits for employees and partners

Cyber Insurance – Did You Know?
We present a brief discussion of risk and the ways that risk can be handled by an organization, one of which mechanisms is the transfer of risk via insurance.
We describe key terms and concepts related to business insurance generally and cyber insurance specifically.
These concepts will include brief descriptions of duties to indemnify, duties to defend, limits, sublimits, exclusions, and retentions, as well as different types of insurance, including CGL policies, Crime policies, E&O, D&O, PGL, and cyber policies.
We present an introduction to the domain of cyber insurance, discussing how cyber events may or may not be covered by traditional insurance products as well as by cyber insurance products.
We will talk about the role of “standardized” contracts supplied by the ISO (Insurance Services Office), how these are changing in the cyber age, and the need for customized contracts.
We will also present a general discussion of the cost of cyber insurance, the market penetration of cyber insurance in the US, and the cost of cyber events, citing data from public sources as well as reports from NetDiligence®

2. Understanding various phases of SDL
3. Threat Modeling
4. Security & Privacy Bugs
5. SDL Training
This talk will argue that DevOps methodologies can be applied to traditional application security practices. Only when developers and operations team members are enabled to make security a part of their everyday work will an organization's security culture change. We must meet security at the sweet spot between running a marathon and sprinting towards a software deployment. So put on your running shoes; it’s time for Dev{Sec}Ops!
Security Testing: Myths, Challenges, and Opportunities - Experiences in Integ...Achim D. Brucker
Security testing is an important part of any security development lifecycle (SDL) and, thus, should be a part of any software (development) lifecycle. Still, security testing is often understood as an activity done by security testers in the time between "end of development'" and "offering the product to customers.'"
On the one hand, learning from traditional testing that the fixing of bugs is the more costly the later it is done in development, security testing should be integrated into the daily development activities. On the other hand, developing software for the cloud and offering software in the cloud raises the need for security testing in a "close-to-production" or even production environment. Consequently, we need an end-to-end integration of security testing into the software lifecycle.
In this talk, we will report on our experiences on integrating security testing ``end-to-end'' into SAP's software development lifecycle in general and, in particular, SAP's Secure Software Development Lifecycle (S2DL). Moreover, we will discuss different myths, challenges, and opportunities in the are security testing.
