Public cloud and security go hand in hand, if you approach it properly
The cloud is already being well used, but lots of organisations still have questions about its security. Is data protection in the cloud really optimal, or is this uncertainty justified? In this breakout session we look at the main concerns we hear from our customers. Can we build a perimeter around cloud applications? Which sectors or scenarios are not suitable for the cloud, and where in particular is it recommended? How do I get to grips with ‘shadow IT’? Do I have to manage things myself in the cloud? Does the public cloud satisfy the strictest security requirements? And what's the most secure authentication? Data protection isn't just limited to firewalls or intrusion systems, after all. The key lies in having a comprehensive security policy, and in this session we zoom in on the major components and challenges.

For years, security involved layering perimeter defenses and physical technology infrastructure that drove up operations and IT costs. But advanced, innovative technologies are driving public sector leaders to step outside the conventional Band-Aid approach. A new breed of public sector security opportunities around software-defined networking has emerged – one that strengthens security and cuts costs. The key – hide all endpoints completely from attackers so there’s no vector to target. There are five ways public sector leaders can increase security and decrease costs:
Cloak your endpoints and go undetectable;
Segment your data center by using communities of interest;
Isolate disparate networks;
Move mission-critical workloads to a more secure cloud;
Convert existing computing devices into secure communications tools.
The three main categories of the data network environment effecting IT security are all undergoing major change simultaneously. In the year ahead, these changes will manifest themselves as security challenges. These trends fall into three categories: client devices (the consumerization of IT); the external threat environment (the institutionalization of threat development); and the hosting environment (virtualization). Any one of these dynamics should shade the thinking of IT strategists inside companies and other organizations. Taken together, they may spur major re-evaluations of current practices.

Digital transformation has increased the importance of the network, particularly the edge, where customers, employees, cloud applications and IoT devices connect to the enterprise. The legacy static and non-dierentiated network edge of years past is no longer suicient for many reasons, so as companies embark on digital-transformation plans, their networks must evolve.
PingPal infodeck: How to survive BYOD and mobile networksHyker Security
Here comes BYOD, Bring Your Own Device.
A lot of the traffic, internal corporate and with customers and market, will be outside firewalls to mobile devices owned by the employees, on public networks. A lot of sensitive corporate data must be stored locally in the device to ensure that for instance sales people has updated and correct CRM data when visiting customers.
Employees will communicate internally on consumer tools like WhatsApp. This is not the safest environment, rather more or less a ticking bomb. Gartner expects that by 2017, “40% of enterprise contact information will have leaked on to Facebook via employees’ increased use of mobile device collaboration applications.”
To unlock the full potential of enterprise mobility, IT needs to allow people the freedom to seamlessly access all their apps and data from any device, company owned or private.
It is now time to recover lost grounds and include secure mobility in your IT strategy.

Challenges and Security Issues in Future IT Infrastructure ComponentsMubashir Ali
Over the past 2 decades, the information technology infrastructure has gone through an exponential change with the introduction and evolution of new technologies and trends. Organizations previously having their data on-premise and their infrastructure comprising of multiple server machines on multiple server racks and dedicated client personal computers (PCs) are moving towards cloud computing & virtualization to Smartphone and tablets. This rapid advancement and constant change, although increasing productivity for the organizations is resulting in a rising number of challenges and security issues for the organizations, their managers, IT administrators and technology architects. This paper discusses the future IT infrastructure components and the challenges & security issues that arise after their implementation that needs to be taken care of in order to get the full advantage of IT.

MEKDA: Multi-Level ECC based Key Distribution and Authentication in Internet ...IJCNCJournal
The Internet of Things (IoT) is an extensive system of networks and connected devices with minimal human interaction and swift growth. The constraints of the System and limitations of Devices pose several challenges, including security; hence billions of devices must protect from attacks and compromises. The resource-constrained nature of IoT devices amplifies security challenges. Thus standard data communication and security measures are inefficient in the IoT environment. The ubiquity of IoT devices and their deployment in sensitive applications increase the vulnerability of any security breaches to risk lives. Hence, IoT-related security challenges are of great concern. Authentication is the solution to the vulnerability of a malicious device in the IoT environment. The proposed Multi-level Elliptic Curve Cryptography based Key Distribution and Authentication in IoT enhances the security by Multi-level Authentication when the devices enter or exit the Cluster in an IoT system. The decreased Computation Time and Energy Consumption by generating and distributing Keys using Elliptic Curve Cryptography extends the availability of the IoT devices. The Performance analysis shows the improvement over the Fast Authentication and Data Transfer method.

Discuss how a successful organization should have the following layers of security in place for the protection of its operations: information security management, data security, and network security.
Multiple Layers of Security
Marlowe Rooks posted Mar 13, 2020 9:54 AM
Looking at Vacca”s book chapter 1, “Information security management as a field is ever increasing in demand and responsibility because most organizations spend increasingly larger percentages of their IT budgets in attempting to manage risk and mitigate intrusions, not to mention the trend in many enterprises of moving all IT operations to an Internet-connected infrastructure, known as enterprise cloud computing (John R. Vacca, 2014)”. It is the organization responsibility to protect its business and its client information at all times. With that said I’m going to break down why companies need to have multiple layers of security and what types they should implement below.
The first layer is Information security management which can be from Physical Security, or Personnel Security. Physical Security can range from physical items, objects, or areas from unauthorized access and misuse. Personnel Security is to protect the individual or group of individuals who are authorized to access the organization and its operations. Some of the reason to implement Information Security is as follow:
· Decrease in downtime of IT systems
· Decrease in security related incidents
· Increase in meeting an organization's compliance requirements and standards
· Increase in customer satisfaction, demonstrating that security issues are tackled in the most appropriate manner
· Increase in quality of service
· Process approach adoption, which helps account for all legal and regulatory requirements
· More easily identifiable and managed risks
· Also covers information security (IS) (in addition to IT information security)
· Provides a competitive edge to an organization with the help of tackling risks and managing resources/processes
The second layer would be Data Security which can be refers to the process of protecting data from unauthorized access and data corruption throughout its lifecycle. Data security includes data encryption, tokenization, and key management practices that protect data across all applications and platforms. Some of the reason to implement Data Security is as follow:
· Cloud access security – Protection platform that allows you to move to the cloud securely while protecting data in cloud applications.
· Data encryption – Data-centric and tokenization security solutions that protect data across enterprise, cloud, mobile and big data environments.
· Web Browser Security - Protects sensitive data captured at the browser, from the point the customer enters cardholder or personal data, and keeps it protected through the ecosystem to the trusted host destination.
· Mobile App Security - Protecting sensitive data in native mobile apps while safeguarding the data end-to-end.

Security is one of the most important functions an organization must incorporate. Regardless of how organizations are assuming all security measures are in place, many times this isn’t enough. Ensuring this is a priority not only protects the company from hacks but also prevent fines and worst-case scenario, loss of trust which will cripple the organization income.
First, the LAN domain is where all the hubs, switches, routers, and workstations reside. This domain is also a trusted zone. Some of the risks involved in this domain includes worm that can infect all systems connected and unauthorized user access into the workstation.
Second, WAM domain which is a Wide Area Network. As the name implies, this domain covers a large geographic area. Some of the risks involved in this domain includes, network outages and the possibility of a DOS or DDOS attack to the server.
Third, the system/application storage domain. A user accessed server. Used for email and database. A very secure domain to ensure businesses doesn’t lose sensitive data and the threat of losing productivity. Some of the risks includes, DOS attack and SQL injections which can result in data corruption.
Lastly, remote access domain. Allows users to access the local network remotely from anywhere regardless of the what internet connection they may be connected to. This has to be protected with a VPN of course. Some of the risks include slow and poor connection, risk of hack due to remote connection from outside the network can be unsecure.
We are going to focus on the system/application storage domain. This is a very important domain as addressed above. This is because this domain must be protected at all times to minimize the risk of losing confidential and sensitive data. But despite the protection this domain is provided, some of the more common threats related to this domain is the operating system such as the desktop and server, email application, etc. Looking at software vulnerability, this is an easy way to exploit this domain. This is due to software having vulnerabilities and it is impossible to write perfect code that is free of any vulnerabilities. The vulnerabilities are then easily exploited by malware which is usually accidently installed by the user. What these vulnerabilities can be damaging to a corporation, they can be used to steal information or remain for a long ride to monitor or be used as keyloggers. Protecting from these attacks is not easy but ensuring all system updates are installed will help with the mitigation of the risks. Companies are always releasing updates to help correct vulnerabilities shortly after discovery. Another best practice is monitoring the systems for any suspicious software or behavior to help detect malware early.

How Deep Observability Powers Strong Cybersecurity and Network Insights Acros...Dana Gardner
Transcript of a discussion on how new advances in deep observability provide powerful access and knowledge about multi-cloud and mixed-network behaviors.
Network security is a dynamic art, with dangers appearing as fast as black hats can exploit vulnerabilities. While there are basic “golden rules” which can make life difficult for the bad guys, it remains a challenge to keep networks secure. John Chambers, Executive Chairman of Cisco, famously said “there are two types of companies: those that have been hacked, and those who don’t know they have been hacked”. The question for most organizations isn’t if they’re going to be breached, but how quickly they can isolate and mitigate the threat. In this paper, we’ll examine best practices for effective cybersecurity – from both a proactive (access hardening) and reactive (threat isolation and mitigation) perspective. We’ll address how network automation can help minimize cyberattacks by closing vulnerability gaps and how it can improve incident response times in the event of a cyberthreat. Finally, we’ll lay a vision for continuous network security, to explore how machine-to-machine automation may deliver an auto-securing and self-healing network.

PRIVACY AWARE COMPUTING
Introduction
With the increasing public concerns of security and personal data privacy worldwide, security
and privacy become an important research area. This research area is very broad and covers
many application domains.
The security and privacy aware computing research group actually focuses on
(1) privacy-preserved computing,
(2) Video surveillance, and
(3) secure biometric system.
Now let us briefly discuss the above three groups.
Privacy-preserved Computing
Concerns on the data privacy have been increasing worldwide. For example, Apple was
reportedly fined by South Korea’s telecommunications regulator for allegedly collecting and
storing private location data of iPhone users. The privacy concerns raised by both end-users and
government authorities have been hindering the deployment of many valuable IT services, such
as data mining and analysis, data outsourcing, and mobile location-aware computing.
soo, in response to the growing necessity of protecting data privacy, our research group has been
focusing on developing innovative solutions towards information services --- to support these
services while preserving users’ personal privacy.
Video Surveillance
With the growing installation of surveillance video cameras in both private and public areas, the
closed-circuit TV (CCTV) has been evolved from a single camera system to a multiple camera
system; and has recently been extended to a large-scale network of cameras.
One of the objectives of a camera network is to monitor and understand security issues in the
area under surveillance. While the camera network hardware is generally well-designed and
roundly installed, the development of intelligent video analysis software lags far behind. As
such, our group has been focusing on developing video surveillance algorithms such as face
tracking, person re-identification, human action recognition.
Our goal is to develop an intelligent video surveillance system.
Secure Biometric System
With the growing use of biometrics, there is a rising concern about the security and privacy of
the biometric data. Recent studies show that simple attacks on a biometric system, such as hill
climbing, are able to recover the raw biometric data from stolen biometric template. Moreover,
the attacker may be able to make use of the stolen face template to access the system or cross-
match across databases. Our group has been working on face template protection, multimodality
template protection, and .
How Converged Access and Application Intelligence Let You Handle Complex Network Needs for Visibility, Protection and Productivity. Customers around the world frequently describe to me their visions of the arriving IT environment—an ecosystem that’s open, flexible, scalable and robust; that lets companies enhance their application intelligence, fortify security, and seize fast-arising business opportunities.
Attacks on the enterprise are getting increasingly sophisticated. Current solutions available do not seem to be adequate given the innovativeness, precision and persistence of these attacks in different forms and of different dimensions. Organisations thus want to increase the sophistication of their employees and also of the solutions to be deployed given this backdrop.
“Verify and never trust”: The Zero Trust Model of information securityAhmed Banafa
What is Zero Trust Model of information security?
The Zero Trust Model of information security simplifies how information security is conceptualized by assuming there are no longer “trusted” interfaces, applications, traffic, networks or users. It takes the old model — “trust but verify” — and inverts it, since recent breaches have proven when an organization trusts, it doesn’t verify.

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).

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Introduction
Defining the network perimeter is as complex as ever. It’s safe to say that mobility has changed the
architecture and design of the network. As organizations increase the use of mobile technologies to
remain competitive and to enhance employee productivity, the network needs to handle a surge in a
variety of traffic in a secure way.
The network infrastructure that an organization has in place today typically does not meet their mobility
needs. The expertise in understanding mobility challenges and providing the appropriate solutions is
something that few organizations do right. The intent of this whitepaper is to help you align your
network to support your mobile initiatives.
Market Drivers
Mobility is a unique task given that requires security at all levels. The market for mobility has changed
the requirements for a network. Enterprises of all sizes are dealing with these changes, as some are
starting from scratch while others are moving from a line of business-focused to an enterprise-focused
strategy. Regardless of where you are, the mobility landscape is pushing organizations to upgrade their
network to ensure its mobile ready.
Mobility management includes everything from applications, devices, data, and so one.
Whether there is an established vendor or new vendor, there are many approaches to managing
mobility. With so many approaches due diligence needs to be taken to assess which approach
supports your needs. However, we see lifecycle issues that make a mobile strategy a moving
target.
Network Traffic has increased and will continue to increase due to your mobility. Cellular service
providers are doing what they can to keep up with the demand. WLAN vendors are also working
hard to ensure the latest technology supports mobile initiatives. A reliable connection is key to
mobile-first enterprise.
Network Security in a mobile environment that manages both insider and outsider threats has
become a challenge. The threat vector has changed and become more sophisticated. If an
organization doesn’t know how valuable their data is or who their users are, it then becomes an
uphill battle to secure the network.

Difficulties in securing the network perimeter
1. Tunneling
Tunneling has been used for years to provide remote users access to corporate resources. Prior
to enterprise mobility, the organizations typically used SSL or IPSec VPNs. Now with the broader
adoption of mobile platforms new tunneling solutions are beginning to emerge, such as Per-App
Container/Device/User VPN and enterprise mobility management (EMM) tunnel. Investments
have already been made in previous technology, which leads to questioning of which solution is
right for us.
SSL VPN –corporate access using a web browser.
IPSec – corporate access that requires a client application on the device.
Per-App/Container/Device/User – corporate access based on specific application,
container, device or user.
EMM Tunnel – corporate access without deploying a VPN.
2. Access to the enterprise
Access to the enterprise is being given to a growing number of users. They have access at any
time and from anywhere. Some organizations even go down the path of giving users access to
everything and then lock it down at a later date. With mobility changing rapidly organizations
use this approach to handle the unknowns. The problem is that date never comes, and the
attackers have open access to steal anything they want.
Besides users access, application and device controls need to be put in place to control access.
The standard authentication, authorization, accounting (AAA) framework needs to be used to
ensure the network isn’t putting users at risk.
3. Wireless security
Cellular and WLAN play an important role in securing the network perimeter. Typically with
cellular the risk is transferred to the mobile service provider. As an organization, you have more
control over the WLAN security that is in place.
The WLAN needs to be viewed from both an internal and external perspective. Internally an
organization needs to understand their applications, devices, and users that are on the
traversing their networks. The issue is that typically organizations haven’t aligned those three
areas together to generate the right WLAN policy.
External WLANS is where users put their organizations at risk, without knowing it. The ability
access the internet via a hotspot, hotel, convention center, and so forth can expose a security
domain that organizations don’t control. Sometimes WLAN coverage is better than cellular
coverage in a certain area. The typical scenario is for your users to access a WLAN and complete
a task. However the how do you know if a user is using a rouge Access Point (AP) to access
corporate resources? Now organizations are left trying to frame a wireless security problem that
is broad and complex to control.

Aligning the network infrastructure to support mobility
Understanding that the network in mobile enterprise is a large system, that consists of multiple
components that move in an out of and organization's mobile security domain. There is a need to break
the system down into its components or subsystems. Within each component, evaluate what you need
to control. The way to think about that is “How can we prevent a data breach”. Then next do a gap
analysis what you have in place now. This will show you where need to make investments.
The goal at the end of the day is focused on managing risks by aligning the network to your mobility
initiatives. Defining the perimeter in terms of Users -> Devices ->Applications -> Data, puts into context
how a business can structure the network to support enterprise mobility.
In order to secure the mobile perimeter evaluate these five areas of your network.
1. Network Segmentation – A layered approach requires classifying the networks. Then you need
to ensure traffic is blocked to applications and data that haven’t been associated with the
enterprise mobility domain.
2. Connectivity – Understand the various network connection options that a user has. Then
determine how you can control the connections. Some options are to control connections with
access time schedules, managing persistent connections, and so forth.
3. Firewall - If your firewall is using legacy capabilities of source/destination IP address and ports,
it time for a technology refresh. The features in a next-generation firewall (NGFW) allows
organizations to get granular with network traffic by adding user access controls, packet
inspection, network application/ID control, intrusion detection system/intrusion detection
systems (IDS/IPS), traffic inspection and more to legacy firewall capabilities.
4. Network Access Control (NAC) – The NAC give an organization the ability to make network
decisions based on device visibility. The ability to align the device application posture to your
network access control.
5. Tunneling – within a mobile enterprise resources are available anytime and anywhere. There are
options when it comes to allowing the access. Understanding your data will determine which
approach is best for the business.
Conclusion
Mobility has changed how organizations secure the network perimeter. More than ever a layered
approach is needed to ensure all mobility risks are managed appropriately. Ideally having end-to-end
access controls in place that align to user’s roles and responsibilities will help manage the mobility risks.
If an organization can effectively protect corporate data, they are able to quickly audit their security
posture and adapt quickly to mobile changes. As technology continues to move towards
anytime/anywhere access organizations need to ensure the network is up to the challenge. The value in
the network is being able to analyze that information traversing it. If it's secure, then an organization
can maneuver quickly to realize new opportunities that support their mobile initiatives.
