Discussions on threat intelligence often get bogged down between “machine speed” ingestion of atomic indicators and in-depth analysis of activity taking weeks (or months) to produce. Left in the cold in such debates is a very important but seldom considered middle ground: time-sensitive and incomplete but enriched threat intelligence. In the U.S. Navy and similar services, this is referred to as threat “indications and warning” (I&W) – a step beyond a simple observable refined to ensure accuracy and timely receipt.
The goal of I&W is to get actionable, important information to those in need of it most as quickly, efficiently, and accurately as possible, even if as a result some context or other insights are lost. As a result of this activity, consumers are better armed and equipped to deal with and counter threats as they emerge, rather than either reacting to items with no context whatsoever or only reading about their challenges weeks after the fact in a complete intelligence report. This discussion explores the concept of threat I&W within the context of network security generally and threat intelligence specifically to identify this topic as a shamefully ignored middle ground between extremes. The presentation explores the conceptual background behind this idea, then transition to real-life examples of I&W drawn from the speaker’s past activity in threat intelligence, incident response, and military operations.
Uncovering ICS Threat Activity Groups for Intelligence-Driven Defense: Dragos has released information about eight threat activity groups that have targeted industrial companies. These groups range from espionage, to learning industrial environments for future effects, to causing a power outage and targeting human life directly. But what are threat activity groups? They are different than what is normally tracked in the community as threat actors and have a different focus for defenders.

Cyber Intelligence Vision Information Sheet 20Nov2013Dave Eilken
Intelligence sharing has become the primary method of defending against cyber attacks. By sharing cyber security intelligence across organizations when one group experiences an incident, that information can benefit hundreds as actionable intelligence to increase the costs for malicious actors. Automating intelligence sharing through a federation of standards-based repositories that exchange information in real-time can help organizations achieve situational awareness across a community and jointly raise the cost of attacks while reducing the cost of proactive defense.

This document discusses the importance of proactive cyber risk management for companies. It notes that executives must take a holistic approach to understanding cyber threats, implications for the business, and how to respond to incidents. It then provides an overview of the cybersecurity consulting services offered by NCC Group, including risk assessments, strategy development, incident response planning, and audits. The goal is to help organizations enhance their cyber resilience and ability to effectively manage risks and respond to threats.
This document discusses threat intelligence, defining it as information about threats that can be used for action. It categorizes threat intelligence as either tactical (specific indicators like IP addresses and files) or strategic (trends and lessons from past incidents). For intelligence to be effective, it should be timely, accurate, actionable, and relevant. Traditional methods of obtaining intelligence include security vendor alerts, government reports, and automated feeds. Many security products now incorporate threat intelligence. The document stresses the importance of intelligence being actionable so security teams can respond quickly with minimal validation or manual work based on their specific context. It also cautions that intelligence integration requires a staged process and not all intelligence will be relevant to every organization.
Threat intelligence is knowledge that allows you to prevent or mitigate cyberattacks. Rooted in data, threat intelligence gives you context that helps you make informed decisions about your security by answering questions like who is attacking you, what their motivations and capabilities are, and what indicators of compromise in your systems to look for.

The document discusses the evolution of secure networks and ransomware threats. It provides statistics on ransomware payments, infections rates, and earnings. It also outlines the history of exploit kits used to propagate malware and discusses mitigation techniques like deploying new detection mechanisms using static and dynamic file analysis as well as machine learning. The document advocates for removing information silos and leveraging software-defined secure networks to utilize threat intelligence across an organization's entire network and ecosystem for improved detection and enforcement.
Dragos S4X20: Mapping ICS Incidents to the MITRE Attack FrameworkDragos, Inc.
Principal Industrial Pentester, Austin Scott, presents at S4x20 on how to map ICS incidents to the MITRE ATT&CK Framework.
View the webinar here: https://dragos.com/resource/introducing-mitre-attck-for-ics-and-why-it-matters/
Cyber threat intelligence involves collecting, analyzing, and sharing information about threats to help organizations assess risks and defend themselves. It follows principles like being centralized, objective, and continuous. The Structured Threat Information Expression (STIX) framework allows sharing threat data consistently between organizations using common language. Intrusion detection systems monitor networks and systems for malicious activity, using either signature-based methods to detect known threats or anomaly-based methods to find unknown behaviors.
This document discusses cyber threat intelligence and strategies for defense. It begins with an introduction to cyber threat intelligence and discusses the cyber attack life cycle model from Lockheed Martin. It then addresses questions to consider regarding cyber threats. The document outlines threat intelligence standards and tools like STIX and TAXII, and discusses challenges with SIEM systems. It proposes architectures that incorporate threat intelligence to provide preventive, detective, and fusion capabilities. The presentation concludes with a discussion of data sources and architectures to support cyber threat analysis.
Recently, NTT published the Global Threat Intelligence Report 2016 (GTIR). This year’s report focused both on the changes in threat trends and on how security organizations around the world can use the kill chain to help defend the enterprise.
Turning threat intelligence data from multiple sources into actionable, contextual information is a challenge faced by many organizations today. The Global Threat Intelligence Platform provides increased efficiency, reduces risks and focuses on global coverage with accurate and up-to-date threat intelligence.
This presentation was given at Carnegie Mellon University by Kenji Takahashi, VP of Product Management, Security at NTT Innovation Institute.
William F. Crowe presented on the cybersecurity kill chain, which models the stages of a cyber attack based on military doctrine. The model developed by Lockheed Martin includes stages of reconnaissance, weaponization, delivery, exploitation, installation, command and control, and actions on objectives. ISACA and the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security also use similar kill chain models to analyze the process of advanced persistent threats targeting critical systems and data.
The document discusses network forensics and the ability to capture and analyze all network traffic at high speeds. It notes that advances in storage technologies now enable total network traffic capture without loss. This allows analyzing past network events, even those from months prior, with full packet fidelity. The author proposes that network forensics technologies could evolve similarly to how firewalls became universal. By making total network traffic capture and analysis practical and easy to use, security defenses could become more effective against both known and unknown threats.
The document discusses the effectiveness of layered cybersecurity defenses against cyberattacks. It describes the cybercriminal "kill chain" process and how attackers develop sophisticated tools and evade detection. The speaker then presents empirical data from NSS Labs on how well security products like firewalls, IPS, antivirus software, and browsers prevent exploits in real-world testing. While organizations deploy multiple security layers, the results show significant gaps in protection levels within and across different security product categories. A live demonstration also shows how malware can bypass detection. In conclusion, layered defenses provide some protection but attackers continuously improve evasion techniques.

Webinar: Backup vs. Ransomware - 5 Requirements for Backup SuccessStorage Switzerland
Ransomware is the universal threat. No matter an organization's data center location, or its size, it can be devastated by a ransomware attack. While most organizations focus on the periphery, they also need to be prepared for a breach, something that ransomware is particularly adept. In case of a breach, an advanced backup and disaster recovery solution can ensure safe and timely recovery of data without paying ransom.
In this webinar join experts from Storage Switzerland and Micro Focus as they discuss the impact of ransomware and the core features of a backup solution that can mitigate the associated risks.
Understanding Cyber Kill Chain and OODA loopDavid Sweigert
The document discusses using an attacker's tactics and techniques to design effective cybersecurity defenses. It provides examples of mapping security controls and tools to different stages of common attack models like the Lockheed Martin Kill Chain. This allows an organization to see where in the attack cycle they have visibility and can disrupt threats. The document advocates taking a strategic, intelligence-driven approach to cyber defense by understanding adversaries' full operations in order to implement controls earlier in the attack cycle.
ION-E Defense In Depth Presentation for The Institiute of Internal Auditorsmdagrossa
The document discusses the concept of defense in depth (DID) as it relates to cybersecurity. DID is defined as building mutually supporting layers of defense to reduce vulnerabilities and protect against attacks. The key aspects of DID include understanding threats, seeing the full battlefield, using defensive advantages, concentrating defenses, coordinating assets, and balancing security and legal constraints. The document advocates applying DID principles through multiple overlapping controls and frameworks, rather than relying on a single compliance standard, in order to provide comprehensive security that can withstand attacks from various threat actors.
PolySwarm is developing a decentralized marketplace for cybersecurity services where security experts build competing anti-malware engines. It aims to address the problem of undetected threats by offering additional services beyond major antivirus providers. The $8.7B endpoint security market is the target, and the project has professionals from DHS, DARPA and Fortune 100 on its team. Success depends on attracting enough experts to the platform. The Nectar token will be used to pay fees on the platform and the project raised $26M in its ICO.
This document discusses the evolution of approaches to securing SCADA systems. Early advice based on IT security principles is subtly flawed, as it fails to prevent system compromise and physical damage cannot be undone with backups. More recent approaches focus on prevention over detection and response. The key shift is recognizing SCADA systems must remain uncompromised, as restoring operations from intrusions is impossible unlike with IT systems. Overall confidence in SCADA security remains low due to outdated approaches still in use.

While cyber threats are serious, advancements in the field can make our lives significantly better and more secure. Leave the audience with a sense of cautious optimism that while the cybersecurity field is always evolving, it's driven by brilliant minds dedicated to keeping us protected.
This document discusses the growing threats posed by cyber attacks and advanced persistent threats (APTs). It notes that most breaches are discovered by third parties, and targeted attacks have become the norm. The reality is that a new threat is created every second, a cyber intrusion occurs every 5 minutes, and over 90% of enterprises have malware. Analysts urge organizations to adopt advanced threat detection capabilities. The document then describes Custom Defense's solution, which provides network-wide detection, threat intelligence, custom sandboxes for analysis, and automated security updates. It provides examples of how the solution integrates with other Trend Micro products and third-party technologies.
Second line of defense for cybersecurity : BlockchainAhmed Banafa
With the fact that cybercrime and cyber security attacks hardly seem to be out of the news these days and the threat is growing globally.
Nobody would appear immune to malicious and offensive acts targeting computer networks, infrastructures and personal computer devices.
Firms clearly must invest to stay resilient.
Gauging the exact size of cybercrime and putting a precise US dollar value on it is nonetheless tricky.
Evolving technologies and business models have led to advanced network security threats that never existed a few years back. Moreover, enterprises are also relying on outdated security solutions to shut out such threats and this is leading to bigger and frequent data breaches. So if your company recognizes the need for a reliable IT security solution, then you should join our webinar to learn the following:
- An overview of the prevalent enterprise security threats
- The evolving security landscape and the obsolete security mechanisms
- What Seqrite does to ensure enterprise security and network compliance

Interdependent Strategic Security Risk Management
With Bounded Rationality in the Internet of Things
Juntao Chen , Student Member, IEEE, and Quanyan Zhu, Member, IEEE
Abstract— With the increasing connectivity enabled by the
Internet of Things (IoT), security becomes a critical concern,
and users should invest to secure their IoT applications. Due to
the massive devices in the IoT network, users cannot be aware
of the security policies taken by all its connected neighbors.
Instead, a user makes security decisions based on the cyber
risks that he perceives by observing a selected number of
nodes. To this end, we propose a model which incorporates

1) The retail sector has been hit by a series of cyber attacks over the past few years that have compromised customer data at large companies like Target and Neiman Marcus.
2) Current cybersecurity approaches are too slow and reactive, focusing on malware after attacks occur rather than proactively detecting threats.
3) Behavioral cyber defense monitoring could have detected the abnormal behaviors of attackers on Target and Neiman Marcus' networks before data breaches occurred.

Hand Rolled Applicative User ValidationCode KataPhilip Schwarz
Could you use a simple piece of Scala validation code (granted, a very simplistic one too!) that you can rewrite, now and again, to refresh your basic understanding of Applicative operators <*>, <*, *>?
The goal is not to write perfect code showcasing validation, but rather, to provide a small, rough-and ready exercise to reinforce your muscle-memory.
Despite its grandiose-sounding title, this deck consists of just three slides showing the Scala 3 code to be rewritten whenever the details of the operators begin to fade away.
The code is my rough and ready translation of a Haskell user-validation program found in a book called Finding Success (and Failure) in Haskell - Fall in love with applicative functors.

Need for Speed: Removing speed bumps from your Symfony projects ⚡️Łukasz Chruściel
No one wants their application to drag like a car stuck in the slow lane! Yet it’s all too common to encounter bumpy, pothole-filled solutions that slow the speed of any application. Symfony apps are not an exception.
In this talk, I will take you for a spin around the performance racetrack. We’ll explore common pitfalls - those hidden potholes on your application that can cause unexpected slowdowns. Learn how to spot these performance bumps early, and more importantly, how to navigate around them to keep your application running at top speed.
We will focus in particular on tuning your engine at the application level, making the right adjustments to ensure that your system responds like a well-oiled, high-performance race car.

2. “PolySwarm is uniquely addressing
an important issue in cyber
security. Their approach is
disruptive and is much-needed in
the industry, and I'm thrilled to
be working so closely with their
team.”
- Mark Tonnesen, Former CIO of McAfee
and Adviser to PolySwarm
3. The PolySwarm Team
● Highly skilled, reputable security experts
● Decades of experience in U.S. Intel & Fortune 100
● Awarded DHS & DARPA grants to investigate advanced
R&D into security and blockchain technologies
5. The problem:
● Computers and data are compromised by malware.
● Single-vendor malware detection software cannot
cover a global threat anymore.
● Single-vendor threat protection lags by hours,
days, and often weeks.
*Source: WeLiveSecurity
6. The Solution
● Swarm leverages blockchain + smart contracts to
assemble full-coverage anti-virus on every sample.
● Each $0.01/USD scan fee is routed to multiple software
micro-engines, providing complete coverage.
● Micro-engines maintained by security experts for
blockchain-based rewards.
7. In Depth: What We Do
PolySwarm. PolySwarm is a crowdsourced, rapid innovation
environment where experts compete to protect enterprises
and end-users from the latest threats.
Our global community of security experts develop
micro-engines that converge to analyze threats fast and
efficiently; they provide broader analysis and protection,
tailor-made to exact user needs.
Experts are paid in Nectar, the utility token exchanged for
threat intelligence. Higher amounts of Nectar are paid for
higher performing micro-engines.
This compensation model fosters a competitive environment
that motivates experts to develop better solutions and
blockchain technology enables PolySwarm’s intelligent,
Ethereum-programmed smart contracts.
10. Fragmented market, fragmented
coverage.
● Vendor XXXX and
YYYY have different
blind spots.
● Users only covered
by one vendor.
● Majority of
subscription
revenue goes to
overhead, not user
protection.
($8.5B/yr market, 18% CAGR)
12. The Competition
● We’re a first-mover, decentralizing threat
detection with smart contracts and blockchain.
● Our threat protection is low cost because there’s
no middleman required in a decentralized
environment.
● Experts’ commitment to PolySwarm will increase
because Nectar can be used only in the PolySwarm
platform (or converted to fiat currency on
cryptocurrency exchanges).
