This document summarizes three major security events that have been in the news over the last 12 months: the Heartbleed vulnerability, large-scale data breaches like the Target breach, and revelations about the NSA from documents leaked by Edward Snowden. For each event, key details are provided about what happened and potential implications for CIOs and companies. Perspective and best practices around data security, insider threats, and legal/policy issues are also discussed.
Cyber attackers are better funded, more focused, and more successful than ever. Making matters worse, defenders have more IT territory to protect, including public cloud, virtual infrastructure, mobile, Internet of Things, and an expanding list of users, applications, and data. An evolution in security strategies is underway; shifting from a preventive approach to one that is more balanced across prevention, monitoring, and response. In this session, we delve into key innovations that enable a more effective defense and how RSA’s NetWitness suite is delivering many of these innovations.

Jason Harrell - Compliance and Security: Building a Cybersecurity Risk Manage...centralohioissa
Global regulations are driving the needs for businesses in all sectors to have cybersecurity programs that are designed to fit the organizations risk profile. At the same time, there is a lack of clarity on how much one should spend on managing these risks and the sophistication and number of risk mitigants that are required to manage these risks.
Company executives and board of directors are held personally liable for having the appropriate oversight and management of these controls and are looking for their CISO and CIROs to provide them assurance that these controls are in place and operating effectively. An attempt to balance the requirements and the expectations is a delicate balance. This presentation will look at the regulatory landscape and how this landscape is affecting client, executive, and board-level expectations for cybersecurity risk management. It will also provide some recommendations on how to approach the development of a cybersecurity risk management program.
Bil Harmer - Myths of Cloud Security Debunked!centralohioissa
Despite the meteoric rise of cloud based applications and services, as well as its subsequent adoption by a significant number of enterprises, security still remains a major concern for many organizations. The elephant in the room is the misconception that the cloud is less secure than on-premise capabilities. Gartner eloquently describes this as “more of a trust issue than based on any reasonable analysis of actual security capabilities”.
A recent global study by BT revealed that 76% of large organizations cited security as their main concern for using cloud-based services. 49% admitted being “very” or “extremely anxious” about the security complications of these services. However according to Gartner, the reality is “most breaches continue to involve on-premises data center environments”
Where do you stand on this issue?
In this talk. we will debunk the top myths of cloud security, including:
Myth 1: We don’t really use the cloud
Myth 2: I lose control of my data when it goes to the cloud
Myth 3: Cloud is less secure than on-premise solutions
Myth 4: I’m at the mercy of cloud vendors for patching
Myth 5: Appliances provide greater control over
scalability/performance
Myth 6: Cloud security is more difficult to manage
Myth 7: Cloud resources are more exposed to attack
Myth 8: Multi-Tenant Clouds Expose Privacy Concerns
Myth 9: Cloud vendors lack transparency
Myth 9: Cloud vendors lack transparency
Myth 10: Appliances are more reliable than the cloud

MT81 Keys to Successful Enterprise IoT InitiativesDell EMC World
Success with enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) initiatives begins with strong partnerships between IT and operations technology (OT) organizations and identifying relevant use cases with measurable ROI. Next, choosing the right IoT architecture and technology requires determining the capabilities are needed at the edge and what are needed in the cloud and datacenter to minimize cost and enable analytics-driven action. This session will discusses the challenges involved with introducing sensors and smart devices into your network, including building infrastructure and analytics capabilities , and securing data and applications. Learn how Dell'S IoT-specific gateways, edge analytics software and infrastructure solutions provide flexible architecture options for multiple IoT use cases.
Today’s most innovative companies are swapping stringent hierarchical systems and silos in favor of knowledge work and integrated teams. The operating model of the future will develop into a dynamic and redundant team that can respond quickly to user needs and adhere to exhaustive testing practices.
Here’s the question: Is your organization ready to make this change?
During this webinar, Crystal Miceli, Ivanti's VP Product Marketing, hosted our special guest analyst, Charlie Betz, from Forrester Research, an expert in mediating hard-to-resolve discussions around incident management, release automation and chaos engineering. He examined the challenges of older IT modeling. He’ll also shared how infrastructure and operations (I&O) professionals can build agile systems that invest in continuous learning and are compatible with modern IT service management.
This webinar will help you:
.Articulate the issues around traditional IT organization models
.Define how new processes can work in tandem with modern tech operations
.Investigate mission-driven, product-centric operating models you can adopt
.Establish a strategy for transforming your organization’s processes to meet new standards

Data infrastructures are highly dynamic, with changes in accounts, configurations and patches occurring regularly. Within your data infrastructure you need to understand the data. Not all data is the same. You need to protect the data that is considered high risk. However, most organizations lack the centralized control or skilled resources to review changes systematically to determine if they have introduced security gaps. While there are no silver bullets, there are key steps organizations can take to understand and reduce their risk and lower TCO.
In this presentation, Luis Casco-Arias, Senior Product Manager for IBM Security Guardium, describes best practices for:
- Assessing vulnerabilities and exposures
- Locking down critical data in various environments
- Aligning remediation workflows to prevent breaches and policy violations

The Role of Threat Intelligence and Layered Security for Intrusion Prevention
The term 'Threat Intelligence' is getting a lot of buzz these days, but what does it mean? And, more importantly, how can it help protect your network? In this presentation, we will attempt to answer these questions within the context of a layered security approach that integrates Threat Intelligence with existing security methodologies. We also attempt to demonstrate how Threat Intelligence can improve a network's defenses at the perimeter and allow administrators to gain more visibility on the inside.
Cybersecurity is difficult. It is a serious endeavor which over time strives to find a balance in managing the security of computing capabilities to protect the technology which connects and enriches the lives of everyone. Characteristics of cyber risk continue to mature and expand on the successes of technology innovation, integration, and adoption. It is no longer a game of tactics, but rather a professional discipline, continuous in nature, where to be effective strategic leadership must establish effective and efficient structures for evolving controls to sustain an optimal level of security.
This presentation will discuss the emerging challenges as it analyzes the cause-and-effect relationships of factors driving the future of cybersecurity.

Praesidio CTO, Sean Cassidy presented at FinDEVr New York 2016 on role-based behavior analytics, using patterns and anomalies in user behavior as indicators of attack. View his slides from the presentation here.
Overview:
It is easy for attackers to beat traditional security measures: antivirus, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems. This is because those methods are akin to blacklisting known bad behavior. Attackers need only to modify their behavior slightly to avoid the blacklist. Anomaly detection, instead models normal user behavior and alerts when attackers deviate from that without any humans specifying what normal behavior is.
So what is anomaly detection, how does it work, and how can you apply it to your network?

1. Security In the
News
Orange County CIO Roundtable
July 10, 2014
Jeff Hecht
Chief Compliance & Security Officer
2. Agenda
• We’re going to talk about 3 major security events that
have been in the news in the last 12 months.
• We’ll try to understand a little about what happened and
add some perspective about what those things mean for
CIOs and other executives going forward.
• The three events are:
o The Heartbleed vulnerability
o The regularity of massive data breaches, most
specifically the Target breach
o The revelations about the NSA as a result of documents
stolen and released by Edward Snowden
3. Heartbleed - What is it?
• Heatbleed is a vulnerability in the OpenSSL cryptographic
software library.
• This weakness allows stealing the information usually
protected by SSL/TLS encryption the primary tool
providing communication security and privacy over the
Internet.
• It’s called Heatbleed because the bug is in OpenSSL's
implementation of the TLS/DTLS heartbeat extension.
When it is exploited it leads to the leak of memory
contents from the server to the client and from the client
to the server.
4. Heartbleed – What does it do?
• The information that can be obtained through these
leaks is expansive.
• Not just an ability to intercept a particular exchange as
it’s happening (e.g. a web session that might include
confidential information), but user names and passwords
and most importantly the encryption keys themselves.
• Leaked secret keys allow the attacker to decrypt any
past and future traffic to the protected services and to
impersonate the service at will.
• Any protection given by the encryption and the
signatures in the certificates can be bypassed.
5. Heartbleed – How widespread?
• OpenSSL is the most popular open source cryptographic
library and TLS implementation used to encrypt traffic on
the Internet.
• The most notable software using OpenSSL are the open
source web servers like Apache and nginx. The
combined market share of just those two out of the
active sites on the Internet was over 66%.
• OpenSSL is also used to protect email servers, chat
servers, virtual private networks, network appliances and
wide variety of client side software. Many versions of Linux
also use OpenSSL.
• The bug was introduced to OpenSSL in December 2011
and has been out in the wild since March 2012. OpenSSL
1.0.1g released in April 2014 fixes the bug.
6. Heartbleed – How widespread?
• The vulnerable versions have been out there for over two years
now and an estimated 600,000 servers were affected.
• The list of major sites affected includes:
o Google
o Facebook
o Twitter
o Instagram
o YouTube
o LinkedIn
o Yahoo
o Bank of America
o Chase
o Etrade
o TurboTax
o Amazon Web Services
o DropBox
o And many more…
Note that because this is primarily a
server side issue, it makes no
difference whether your client is
running Windows, an Apple OS,
Android, iOS or what browser or
browser version you have. Everyone
who might connect to any site using
OpenSSL is potentially vulnerable.
7. Heartbleed – Am I affected?
o Almost certainly you as an individual accessed an affected
server.
o It is pretty much impossible that you don’t have an account
somewhere that runs on an affected service, although it’s also
nearly impossible to know if your information was actually
compromised.
o At first there was little you could do until the services were
updated.
o Now most of the major sites have removed the bug, but you
must change your passwords as they may have already been
compromised.
o An estimated 300,000 servers have yet to be patched so your
best defense is to regularly change your log in credentials for any
site that may have confidential information about you.
8. Heartbleed – Is my company
affected?
o If you use Open Source tools to run web sites (like Linux, Apache, etc.)
your company very likely is affected.
o Even if you do not use those tools as primary software, you likely have
devices attached to your network, like firewalls, routers and switches that
use imbedded versions of Open Source software and may contain the
OpenSSL library. Some of these may difficult or impossible to patch.
o You may be using hosting partners that expose you to risk.
o If you rely on cloud based services like Google Apps you will want to
ensure all your users have recently changed their passwords.
o Recovery for exposure on your infrastructure takes several steps:
• Patch the vulnerability with the latest version of OpenSSL
• Revocation of compromised keys (may need the help of your
Certificate Authority)
• Reissue and redistribute new keys
• Have all users change their passwords

10. • Most likely through a malware process know as “RAM scrapping” 40 Million
credit and debit card numbers were stolen over a 3 week period in attack
on Target POS systems
• Also stolen were names, mailing addresses, phone numbers and email
addresses of up to 70 million individuals
• 46% drop in profits
• Stock drops
• $200M cost to banks and credit unions to reissue compromised cards
• Target CIO out
• Target CEO out
• Target to invest at least $100M in upgraded POS security (chip and pin)
• Neiman Marcus, Michaels, eBay, Sally Beauty, P.F. Chang’s, Paytime and
others have had breaches affecting millions
• An estimated one in four Americans have had credit card and other
sensitive information stolen
11. Changes in cards
• Chip and Pin technologies (also called smart cards or EMV) can have a
positive affect on POS breaches and makes duplicating physical credit
cards much harder
• Widely used in Europe for some time (ironically because their network
infrastructure could not support real time verification processing until
recently) chip technologies:
o Imbed a microchip on credit/debit cards that contains the card number,
expiration, etc. in an encrypted format
o The decryption takes place with a sophisticated method that is good
only for that specific transaction and requires the PIN
o That makes the card itself unusable at POS without the PIN and very
difficult to duplicate
o UK and Canada have seen large drops in fraud through use of chip and
pin
• Visa and MasterCard have mandated its use by 10/2015. 10/2017 the liability
for fraudulent transactions will move to the entity in the chain that has the
lowest level of technical security unless they are accepting chip and pin
12. Changes in cards
• The resistance to adoption has been largely cost
o POS terminals must be replaced (roughly 10M of them)
o Cards containing the chips cost 6 to 8 times as much to make as
magnetic strip cards and programming each is expensive
o All told the cost goes from roughly 50 cents a card to $2.20 a card
o There are approximately 1 Billion cards in the US each year so the extra
cost of the cards alone is about $1.7B
• Some had hoped chip and pin would be skipped in favor of a jump to
directly to smartphones and NFC
• Although the technology is there and would seemly avoid many of the costs
associated with the chip and pin cards themselves it has not made much
penetration
13. Are they resolving the problem?
• Chip and Pin is a good step forward from magnetic based credit cards and
makes duplicating physical cards much harder
• Target (and Walmart) are trying to get some positive spin by announcing their
use but its really Visa/MasterCard who are forcing everyone’s adoption
• Whether executed at POS or not most breaches are the result of access through
the Internet, perhaps through a third parties administration credentials
• It’s hacking, phishing, etc. that pose the biggest threats
• One technology that is available today that could help mitigate this is end-to-
end encryption
o In RAM Scrapping exploits the malware takes advantage of the fact that the
encrypted information has to be in clear text at some point in RAM to do the
verifications, at this point it can be captured and stolen. With end-to-end
encryption the data is never exposed except at the ultimate destination (the card
processor) and it remains encrypted and unusable locally . Note that SQUARE is
doing this today, for obvious reasons.
• But that’s going to be another expense and they are already being forced to
spend the money on Chip and Pin so its not likely very soon
14. What does it mean to my
company?
• Obviously if you’re in the retail space, Chip and Pin and customer
confidence are something you’re probably already dealing with
• For everyone else, its about general data security, the basics:
o Employee training
• IBM Security Services 2014 Cyber Security Intelligence Index estimates 95% of
security incidents are “human error” number one cause: phishing
o Active monitoring
o Updated patching and malware protection
o Encryption wherever possible
o Regular scanning and prompt remediation
o User identity management
o Adequate and enforced employee termination procedures
o Two factor authentication for remote admin access
15. NSA Leak
• Edward Snowden a former NSA employee released a large number of files he was able to
remove from agency computer systems through his position as a Systems Administrator
• The information revealed:
• Mass-surveillance programs undertaken by the NSA directly accessing the information
of US citizens as well as foreign nationals
• The agency’s ability to access information stored by major US technology companies,
often without individual warrants, and mass-intercepting data from the fiber-optic
backbone of global phone and internet networks
• They may have worked to undermine the security standards on which the internet,
commerce and banking rely
• The revelations have raised concerns about growing domestic surveillance, the scale of
global monitoring, trustworthiness of the technology sector, whether the agencies can keep
their information secure, and the quality of the laws and oversight keeping the agencies in
check
• The extent to which private companies are cooperating with intelligence agencies has
been a source of concern for internet users as has the allegation that the NSA knew about
Heartbleed and other vulnerabilities and rather than disclosed them, exploited them.
16. NSA Leak
• Some pundits (notably Bruce Schneier) think these revelations show the NSA
has undermined everyone’s security and by forcing commercial companies
to build in ways for them to get access make the world inherently less secure
• Many think direct access of US citizen’s communications represents
warrantless search
• Others think spying on the general populace to potentially uncover terrorist
activity is within the charter of the NSA, that this is simply moving to a more
technologically sophisticated way to spy and that there is adequate
(although not publicly shared) oversight
• There is no evidence that non-terrorism activities have been targeted or
further investigated
17. NSA Leak – What does it mean to
my company?
• The issues about the spying itself are worthy of discussion and perhaps changes in
the controls around NSA activities – but not something most companies will be
able to directly influence
• Also unless your company is a provider of communications services you may be
unlikely to have to make a decision about cooperating to provide access to the
NSA
• The questions about whether the NSA or any entity can keep its’ data secure is of
interest to all of us and should make us all consider:
How is my company exposed to insider threats?
18. NSA Leak – Insider Threats
• Many companies discount insider threats as infrequent events
• While they may not be frequent they have the potential to be more
serious and devastating to the enterprise
• There multiple types of motivation for the insider stealing information:
• Someone who believes they are being a good faith whistle blower
• Someone with a grudge who wishes to harm the enterprise
• Someone interested in profiting – usually quietly and perhaps for a
long time – from the information
• Detection is difficult. These are users that are supposed to be there and
at some point need to access these systems to do their job. Either willfully
or by making an mistake insiders can expose an enterprise’s most critical
information
19. NSA Leak – Insider Threats
• The basic idea is defense in depth. Multiple rings of security to protect
not just the perimeter but the important parts of a network. Some
concepts:
• Islands of Security
• Prevent Unauthorized Copying
• Two-Factor Authentication
• Separation of Duties and Two-Person Authorization
• Creative Use of Encryption
• Prevent Removable Media from Leaving the Building
• Log Events, Monitor and Alert
• Plan for Break-in to Minimize Damage
• Periodic Security Audits
