This document discusses various types of threat hunting and provides examples of threat hunting use cases. The main types of threat hunting covered are IOC based, hypotheses based, baseline based, and anomaly based threat hunting. Several threat hunting use cases are then described in more detail, including hunting for abnormal cmd.exe spawns, suspicious RDP activities, stopping of Windows defensive services, and suspicious task scheduler usage. The document concludes with an overview of how to conduct an end to end threat hunting process by defining hypotheses and hunting across various data sources and platforms.
For organizations and individuals with limited security budgets, successfully hunting for cyber adversaries can be a daunting challenge. Threat Intelligence can be expensive and sometimes
nothing more than IoCs or blacklists. In this talk, Endgame’s threat research team will present a series of techniques that can enable organizations to leverage free or almost-free sources of
data and open-source tools to “hunt on the cheap.” They’ll explain how to: retrieve attackers’ tools from globally distributed honeynets that look like your organization or a juicy launching
point to attackers; enrich the data past basic file/tool hashes to identify malicious command and control IPs/domains through automated binary analysis using open-source sandboxes and tools; and use passive DNS data to identify active infections and enrich existing data sets. Attendees will learn how to apply these three techniques to hunt for adversaries within their own
networks. They will also learn about the various open-source solutions available, such as graph databases, that make these techniques inexpensive and within the scope of many organizations.

RIPS - static code analyzer for vulnerabilities in PHPSorina Chirilă
RIPS is a PHP static source code analyzer based on PIXY that detects vulnerabilities like SQL injection and cross-site scripting. It works by splitting code into tokens and tracing whether user-supplied data reaches sensitive sinks like vulnerable functions. RIPS has a simple web interface and detects vulnerabilities through case studies by preparing a local web site and running analysis. Future work includes improving support for object-oriented code and dynamic runtime analysis.
The document provides information on HP Fortify Source Code Analyzer (SCA). It can analyze source code for various languages like Java, .NET, PHP etc. to identify security vulnerabilities. The installation process involves extracting files and providing a license key. System requirements vary based on the size and complexity of the code being analyzed. Reports can be generated in different templates like OWASP Top 10. Filter sets help classify issues by priority. Commands are available to customize and optimize scans.
Studies show that for every 7 to 10 lines of code we write, we introduce one defect. Now often times we can spot these errors before they ever see the light of day, however that is not true in all cases. So what can we use to assist us in leveling the playing field? Well, we can take advantage of Static Code Analysis tools! In this talk, learn how you can incorporate the following tools into your development process: Checkstyle, PMD, FindBugs, and Lint.
The document discusses Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. It defines CSRF as an attack where unauthorized commands are transmitted from a user that a website trusts. The attack forces a logged-in user's browser to send requests, including session cookies, to a vulnerable website. This allows the attacker to generate requests the site thinks are from the user. The document outlines how CSRF works, example attacks, defenses for users and applications, and myths about CSRF. It recommends using unpredictable CSRF tokens or re-authentication to prevent CSRF vulnerabilities.
This document summarizes a presentation about simplifying secure code reviews. It discusses defining an effective security code review process, including reconnaissance, threat modeling, automation, manual review, confirmation, and reporting.

Static Analysis For Security and DevOps Happiness w/ Justin CollinsSonatype
Justin Collins, Brakeman Security
It is not enough to have fast, automated code deployment. We also need some level of assurance the code being deployed is stable and secure. Static analysis tools that operate on source code can be an efficient and reliable method for ensuring properties about the code - such as meeting basic security requirements. Automated static analysis security tools help prevent vulnerabilities from ever reaching production, while avoiding slow, fallible manual code reviews.
This talk will cover the benefits of static analysis and strategies for integrating tools with the development workflow.
Secure code review is probably the most effective technique to identify security bugs early in the system development lifecycle.
When used together with automated and manual penetration testing, code review can significantly increase the cost effectiveness of an application security verification effort. This presentation explain how can we start secure code review effectively.

Dynamic analysis tools monitor the registry, file system, processes, and network traffic created by malware runtime behavior. These include Process Monitor, Wireshark, Process Explorer, and network sniffers.
- To safely conduct malware analysis, one should create an isolated virtual lab separated from production networks, and install behavioral monitoring and code analysis tools like OllyDbg, Process Monitor, and Wiresh
BSidesCharleston2014 - Ballin on a Budget: Tracking Chinese Malware Campaigns...Andrew Morris
This document summarizes how to track threat actors on a budget by setting up honeypots to monitor attacks. It describes tracking a group in China that spreads malware via SSH passwords. Samples of the group's malware were analyzed, revealing DNS servers and routers as targets for DDoS attacks. The communication protocol was reversed to identify targets in real-time. This provided insights into the group's operations and infrastructure to block.
The document summarizes a data breach that occurred at Target between 2013-2014. It describes how attackers were able to steal data by accessing Target's web services after obtaining credentials through phishing emails. The attackers then used this access to infiltrate Target's systems, escalate privileges, and install malware called Blackpos on point-of-sale machines to scrape payment card data from the magnetic strips when cards were swiped. This led to over 40 million customer credit cards being stolen. Suggested mitigations included improving anomaly detection, network segmentation, encrypting card data during transit and at rest, and strengthening PCI compliance policies.

An Adversarial View of SaaS Malware SandboxesJason Trost
Anyone attending this conference knows the usefulness of running malware in a sandbox to perform triage, speed security analysts' workflow, extract indicators of compromise (IOCs), and to gather useful information for detection and mitigation. When analysts do this, what are the OPSEC concerns regarding tipping the adversary off? Which sandbox providers are better than others in this regard? In this talk we will present some research on taking an adversarial view of the free and widely used SaaS malware sandboxes. When an adversary's malware is detonated in a sandbox, what network artifacts can they see? Can they determine which sandbox provider based on the network? How do malware and related IOCs submitted to these sandboxes propagate to security companies and ultimately threat intelligence feeds? In this talk, we will answer all these questions and more.
Ethical Hacking : Why Do Hackers Attack And How ?HBServices7
Hackers attack websites and networks for various reasons such as financial gain, espionage, activism, or terrorism. Common attack methods include denial of service attacks to crash systems, spoofing identities to gain unauthorized access, hijacking sessions, exploiting software vulnerabilities like buffer overflows, and cracking passwords. To prevent attacks, network administrators must secure systems from intrusion, monitor for suspicious activity, and keep software updated by patching known vulnerabilities.
Cambodia CERT Seminar: Incident response for ransomeware attacksAPNIC
Senior Security Specialist Adli Wahid presents on incident response for ransomeware attacks at the Cambodia CERT Seminar, held online on 13 August 2021.
Companies are struggling to deal with the unstoppable growth of cyber-attacks as hackers get faster, sneakier and more creative. The bad news is - no company is immune, no matter how big or small you are. Without a proper understanding of zero-day threats, companies have no way of exposing the gaps of overhyped security solutions.
Zero-day exploit leaves NO opportunity for detection. This presentation will highlight critical insights combating zero-day threats.

As ransomware threats continue to rise, it's important to understand how to protect yourself and your organization against these cyberattacks and what you should do if you become a victim.
This document discusses ethical hacking. It defines hacking as illegally accessing private information from computer systems or networks. Ethical hacking involves legally testing systems for vulnerabilities with permission. The process involves preparing, gathering information on targets, enumerating systems to identify vulnerabilities, and gaining access. Access can be through passwords, backdoors, trojans, or software exploits. The document provides examples of historical hacks and issues like phreaking and spoofing. It suggests preventing hacking through firewalls, strong passwords, and keeping systems updated. Finally, it raises legal and ethical questions around what is considered ethical hacking and how private property laws apply to networks.
EverSec + Cyphort: Big Trends in CybersecurityCyphort
Advanced threats are changing so often it is getting harder and harder to keep up! In addition to new attacks, hackers are reinventing older ones, making it even more difficult to detect. In this webinar, we will discuss at a high-level some of biggest cybersecurity threats happening right now, including:
--The Resurgence of Ransomware - Locky and other new cryptolockers
--Malvertising, oh My! - No website is safe from unknowingly spreading malware to visitors
--I have RATs - How to defend against Remote Access Trojans stealing your data
There are a lot of web applications which lag serious security issues:
- Input is not escaped
- external file validation is not proper
- db user has permission to drop entire database
- your app may be hosted on any ill-configured server
- injectable input fields, no guard against XSS attacks.
Let's see how different attacks are made on any web app & their impact on an organisation.
This covers a lot of hands-on demo examples.

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).
