Best Practice Next-Generation Vulnerability Management to Identify Threats, ...Skybox Security
Speaker: Gidi Chen, CEO & Founder Skybox Security
Infosec Europe 2013
In order to effectively reduce the risks of cyber-attacks, comply with continuous monitoring requirements, and provide visibility to executives, organizations need to manage their vulnerabilities and associated risks on an on-going basis. This is required in order to match or exceed the daily rate of attacks. Why bother to assess your risks every 90 days, if you are attacked daily, given your frequently changed infrastructure? The session will tackle next-generation vulnerability management strategies and best practices to: ensure that vulnerability data is current and accurate; prioritize based on risk to the business; develop a remediation strategy that works and make vulnerability management an essential part of daily change management processes.
• Understand how to link vulnerability discovery, risk-based prioritization, and remediation activities to effectively mitigate risks
• Have real-world examples of organizations that implemented vulnerability management best practices to effectively and measurably reduce risk
• Be armed with pragmatic steps to implement next-generation vulnerability management to eliminate risks and prevent cyber attacks

Black Hat 2014: Don’t be a Target: Everything You Know About Vulnerability Pr...Skybox Security
Presented at Black Hat 2014.
Heartbleed. Target. Adobe … businesses are under siege by cybercriminals looking for financial gain and political actors looking for trade secrets. It’s a wildly uneven match where a motivated attacker can find exploitable attack vectors in minutes and maintain unabated access for months, while the security team continues to rely on time-honored methodology to fix vulnerabilities in order of severity.
But severity-based vulnerability management misses the mark completely, as it overlooks the fact that risk exposure is the real concern. This workshop will focus on identifying critical vulnerabilities so they can be fixed as quickly as possible to ensure a reduction in risk and the shrinking the attack surface over time.
In this deep dive session on vulnerability analysis and prioritization, we’ll cover:
- Calculating risk exposure: Risk = Impact * Likelihood * Time
- The data you need to be collecting about assets and vulnerabilities
- Prioritizing vulnerabilities using simple 2 factor relationships
- Asset-to-vulnerability correlation to augment the accuracy and freshness of active scan data
- Techniques to drive down the risk exposure time
2017-07-12 GovLoop: New Era of Digital SecurityShawn Wells
This document discusses the new era of digital security in light of emerging technologies like cloud computing, software-defined infrastructure, and the increased use of applications and devices outside of IT's control. It argues that traditional network-based defenses are no longer enough and that security must evolve to be continuous and integrated throughout the IT lifecycle. It presents containers and container platforms like Kubernetes as an approach that can help achieve both agility and improved security by allowing for easy and secure application deployment across hybrid environments.
The document describes a self-defending network (SDN) as a system that allows entities to reduce security risks by using existing infrastructure in new ways. An SDN aims to reduce windows of vulnerability, minimize the impact of attacks, and improve availability. It discusses why SDNs are needed due to evolving network attacks and outlines some of the key components of an SDN, including endpoint protection, admission control, infection containment, intelligent correlation and incident response, and application security measures.

1. LANDesk Success Story | Richmond Public Schools
Richmond Public Schools
A Lesson in Simplifying Layered System Security
Located in the capital city of the state of Virginia, Richmond Public Schools serves more than
24,000 elementary, middle school, high school, and adult-education students. The school
district strives to provide its students with high-quality educational experiences to help them
master essential educational skills, become life-long learners, appreciate cultural diversity, be
responsible citizens and lead productive lives.
In support of that mission, the Department of Information Technologies at Richmond Public
Schools provides customer-oriented, state-of-the-art technological services geared to advancing
all facets of the educational process at the schools. Central to enabling, managing, and securing
the school system’s technological services are LANDesk® Management Suite, LANDesk®
Security Suite, LANDesk® Antivirus, and LANDesk® Asset Manager.
Enhancing Endpoint Protection with Layered Security
One of the main goals at Richmond Public Schools is to foster student achievement—helping
students reach their maximum potential—and technology plays a critical role in that endeavor.
With more than 10,000 computers used at its schools by its nearly 4,000 employees and
24,000 students, the school system manages and secures those technology assets by leveraging
a comprehensive, flexible and integrated endpoint management and layered security toolset
from LANDesk.
“LANDesk has done an excellent job in the way that it has woven together all of its endpoint
management and security capabilities,” says Clifton Dickens, technology asset manager at
Richmond Public Schools. “It gives you very granular control over securing and managing the
computers, while still giving users the freedom to use their computers the way they’re meant to
be used.”
While Richmond Public Schools utilizes the features of LANDesk® Management Suite to
optimize and facilitate its overall management of its computers, the school system appreciates
the fact that LANDesk has provided it a logical, incremental path to add tightly integrated
security capabilities that utilize the same client-side software agent, server infrastructure and
administrative console.
“As we have added new management and security features from LANDesk, we have not had
to make any drastic changes in our environment,” says Dickens. “With the layered security
approach that LANDesk has taken, it has really meshed together well its stable of management
and security offerings. As we add new LANDesk components, we enhance our abilities rather
than add redundancy. Each solution complements and builds on the others.”
Integrating Centralized Management with Automated Remediation
LANDesk® Antivirus is one of the key components of the layered security offering that
Richmond Public Schools leverages. The AV solutions the school system had used in the past
didn’t provide adequate centralized control, were more expensive, and most importantly,
were not as effective as LANDesk. As often as three times during the school year the school
system would experience virus outbreaks that would require a team of 10 field technicians
and engineers to dedicate two or more days to isolate and eradicate the problem. LANDesk
Antivirus has changed all that.
