Part 3 ApplicationEnd-User Security Recommendations.docxdanhaley45372
Part 3: Application/End-User Security Recommendations
Introduction
A robust network security strategy is one that actively involves the entire stakeholders of the system. The network administrator has the responsibility of ensuring that best practices in information security management are implemented throughout the entirety of the system they oversee. Threats to a system exist both within and outside an organization. This necessitates the need for a comprehensive security strategy that can cover all those potential threats. Information security threats are of a dynamic nature and the network administrator should take this consideration to ensure that they are always on top of any emerging threats. System vulnerabilities should be sought and effectively sealed and this should be a regular task.
End User Security Recommendations
Best practice in network security will require that the users and the firm abide by the following:
• Training and awareness – all employees of the company should have a firm grasp of matters pertaining network security. This will come through the training that should be offered by the company. The training should involve how to spot and identify threats, how to combat them, and how to handle them should they occur. As new threats emerge, the firm will need to create a continuous awareness program to inform its employees on them.
• Effective monitoring program – even after training has been done, this is not reason enough to believe employees will adhere to the lessons learnt. As such, the IT personnel should be empowered to conduct random checks on the security behavior of the firm’s employees. This will help in identifying potential weak spots.
• Unique user credentials – each and every employee that has been granted use of computer resources should do so with their own unique username and a password that should not be shared with any other user. The password should be complex enough that no one could possibly guess. The user should avoid using passwords from familiar objects or people. A strong password should have a mix of alphanumeric and special characters. For every activity a user does on any computer, they will be required to use their own unique credentials. This should leave an audit that can be followed should there be an incident.
• Automatic logoff – it is possible that a user might leave a computer without logging out from their session. This opens the possibility that another user might access resources using the logged in credentials. This could be devastating should the unauthorized have malicious intent and the logged on credentials have advanced permissions. Automatic logoff should be set to happen after a given period of time. This should especially happen after the end of prescribed business hours.
• Regular event log audits – event logs are very important when it comes to monitoring the performance of a given system. They can also be used to spot any anomalies within the system. Event log.

At first glance SIEM's appliances and software look like an event aggregator. While a SIEM has the advantage of aggregating logs what puts them apart from the event aggregator market are the correlation engines.
The correlation engines allow the ability to uncover threats/attacks across multiple related events which by themselves would not be a cause for alarm.

What is a SIEM?

Security information and event management (SIEM) is the technology that can tie all your systems together and give you a comprehensive view of IT security.
IT security is typically a patchwork of technologies – firewalls, intrusion prevention, endpoint protection, threat intelligence and the like – that work together to protect an organization’s network and data from hackers and other threats. Tying all those disparate systems together is another challenge, however, and that’s where SIEM can help.
SIEM systems manage and make sense of security logs from all kinds of devices and carry out a range of functions, including spotting threats, preventing breaches before they occur, detecting breaches, and providing forensic information to determine how a security incident occurred as well as its possible impact.
Using SIEM
How do SIEM Products help the following Security concerns?
Countermeasures to detect attempts to infect internal system
Identification of infected systems trying to exfiltrate information
Mitigation of the impact of infected systems
Detection of outbound sensitive information ( DLP)
6
These questions are a core part of a companies overall security architecture. If a SIEM isn't providing answers or solutions to these questions what is it doing?
If you aren't using your SIEM to solve issues like these it may just be an expensive log aggregator/collection system sitting in your network collecting dust.
SIEM Advantages
Correlation of data from multiple systems and from different events detecting security and operational conditions
Anomaly detection by using a baseline of events over time to find deviations from expected or normal behavior
Comprehensive view into an environment based on event types, protocols, log sources, etc

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy.

Superior SIEM and log management platform that
seamlessly combines SIEM, Log Management with
Host and Network Forensics, in a unified Security
Intelligence Platform.
SIEM
SureLog is a web based, agent-less, SIEM, log analy-
sis and reporting software. The software applicati-
on monitors, collects, analyzes, and archives logs
and monitoring parameters from enterprise-wide
network perimeter security devices, Routers, Swit-
ches, SNMP Devices, VM, DHCP servers, Linux or
Windows Systems then generate reports. The devi-
ces are, Firewalls, Proxy servers, Intrusion Detection
System (IDS)/Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), and
Virtual Private Networks (VPN), Mail Servers like MS
Exchange Servers, Zimbra Mail Servers, Postfix Mail
Servers etc.. , distributed Windows hosts, distribu-
ted Unix hosts, Routers, Switches, and other SysLog
devices, Application like IIS web server, IIS FTP server,
MS SQL server, Oracle database server, DHCP Win-
dows and Linux servers. The SureLog application
generates graphs and reports that help in analyzing
system problems with minimal impact on network
performance. Two prominent features of the applica-
tion are correlation and security reports.
CorrelationEngine
The Correlation Engine leverages predefined rules
to identify attack patterns and malicious behavior.
When trying to penetrate a system, attackers often
take advantage of the fact that security controls are
rarely working together and are rarely monitored.
Correlation Engine helps to automate that analysis
so that attacks can be quickly identified and breac-
hes can be quickly contained.
AdvantagesofSureLog
CorrelationEngine
Below are some
advantages of
SureLog:
• SureLog is fast -Supports 50,000 EPS with thou-
sands of rules
• SureLog can trace multiple logs with different
types within a defined time frame. A sample rule
to support this advantage is: Detect an unusual
condition where a source has authentication fa-
ilures at a host, but is not followed by successful
authentication at the same host within 2 hours
• SureLog can correlate different logs (Example:
Windows User Creation Event and Telnet Event)
according to related fields. A sample rule to sup-
port this advantage is: Look for a new account
being created followed by immediate authenti-
cation activity from that same account. It would
detect the backdoor account creation followed
by the account being used to telnet back into the
system
• SureLog can trace a log being created with desi-
red parameters or not. A sample rule to support
this advantage is: Detect an unusual condition
where a source has authentication failures at a
host, is not followed by a successful authenticati-
on at the same host within 2 hours.
• SureLog can audit privileged user activity such
as new account creation for greater operational
transparency
• SureLog can correlate privileged user behavior
with specific network activity. A sample rule to
support this advantage is: Look for a new account
being created followed by immediate authenti-
cation activity from that same account. It would
detect the backdoor account creation followed
by the account being used to telnet back into the
system
• SureLog’s correlation rule editor is simple to use
• SureLog supports multiple filtering options
• SureLog supports compression-based correlation
feature: SureLog can monitor multiple occurren-
ces of the same event, removes redundancies,
and reports them as a single event

ANET
• SureLog supports threshold-based correlation:
SureLog has a threshold to trigger a report when
a specified number of similar events occur
• SureLog supports filter-based correlation: Sure-
Log Inspects each event to determine if it matc-
hes a pattern defined by a regular expression. If
a match is found, an action may be triggered as
specified in the rule.
• SureLog supports sequence-based correlati-
on: SureLog helps establish causality of events.
Events can be correlated based on specific sequ-
ential relationships. For example, synchronizing
multiple events such as “Event A” being followed
by “Event B” to trigger an action.
• Its time-based correlation is useful for correla-
ting events that have specific time-based rela-
tionships. Some problems can be determined
only through temporal correlation. For example,
time-based correlation can be used to implement
cleanup rules given a specific interval
• SureLog supports rule suspending. Preventing
rule firing for a defined time period

between the same source and destination IP
• Look for a new account being created, followed
shortly by access/authentication failure activity
from the same account
• Monitor system access outside of business hours
Taxonomy
This is a mapping of information from heterogeneo-
us sources to a common classification. A taxonomy
aids in pattern recognition and also improves the
scope and stability of correlation rules. When events
from heterogeneous sources are normalized they
can be analyzed by a smaller number of correlation
rules, which reduces deployment and support labor.
In addition, normalized events are easier to work
with when developing reports and dashboards

ting tools

countability and access control

tion

Cross-platformLogCollection
Today’s IT operations require many technologies;
routers, firewalls, switches, file servers, and appli-
cations to name a few. SureLog has been designed
to collect from them all through intelligent use of
agent-less and agent-based techniques.
Windows Event Logs: Agent-less or Agent-based
SureLog can collect all types of Windows Event
Logs with or without the use of an agent. Many
Windows-based applications write their logs to the
Application Event Log or a custom Event Log.
Examples of supported log sources that can be colle-
cted by SureLog in real time include:
• Windows System Event Log
• Windows Security Event Log
• Windows Application Event Log
• Microsoft Exchange Server application logs
• Microsoft SQL Server application logs
• Windows based ERP and CRM systems applicati-
on logs
Syslog
Many log sources, including most network devices
(e.g. routers, switches, firewalls) transmit logs via
Syslog. SureLog includes an integrated Syslog server
for receiving and processing these messages. Simply
point any syslog generating device to SureLog and
it will automatically begin collecting and processing
those logs.
FlatFileLogs
SureLog can collect logs written to any ASCII-ba-
sed text file. Whether it is a commercial system or
homegrown application, SureLog can collect and
manage them.
Examples of supported log sources using this met-
hod include:
• Web servers logs (e.g. Apache, IIS)
• Linux system logs
• Windows Forefront TMG / UAG and ISA Server
logs
• DNS and DHCP server logs
• Host based intrusion detection/prevention sys-
tems
• Homegrown application logs
• MS Exchange message tracking logs
Since so much sensitive information resides in da-
tabases, it is important to monitor and track access
and activity surrounding important databases. The
actual and reputational cost of a theft of customer
records can be very large. SureLog can help. Su-
reLog collects, analyzes, alerts, and reports on logs
from Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server. It also captures
data from custom audit logs and applications that
run on the database. This capability enables custo-
mer to use SureLog for real-time database monito-
ring to guard against insider and outsider threats.
Tagging
SureLog brings about the addition of a very powerful
event tagging system, which allows individual users
as well as teams to tag events with an unlimited
number of keywords that may define that various
Characteristics of an event (intrusion, financial,
departmental and topological). System users can
create their own set of custom tags. Tags can be
added to events individually as needed or through
the automated action system as events are imported
and normalized. Searching and reporting by tags is
supported and tag statistics displays are included as
well.

ScalableLogCentralization
SureLog is architected to scale easily and incremen-
tally as your needs grow. Whether you need to col-
lect 10 million or more than 1 billion logs per day, Su-
reLog can handle it. With SureLog you simply deploy
the capacity you need when you need it, preserving
your initial investment along the way. Deployments
can start with a single, turnkey appliance and grow
easily by adding incremental log manager appliances
as needs expand. With SureLog’s “building blocks”
distributed architecture, you can access and analyze
logs throughout your deployment with ease.
LogArchivingandRetrieval
Many businesses have compliance requirements to
preserve historic log data and be able to provide it in
its original form for legal or investigative purposes.
Collecting, maintaining and recovering historic log
data can be expensive and difficult. Imagine trying
to recover logs from a specific server two years ago.
Were the logs archived or saved anywhere. If so,
where have the logs been stored? What format are
they in? Can the correct archived log files be iden-
tified among the tens of thousands (or millions) of
other archive files…in a reasonable period of time?
With SureLog, the answers to these questions are
easy.
ActivityAuditing
For compliance verification, users’ and administra-
tors’ actions within SureLog are logged. SureLog
user activity reports provide powerful proof that
SureLog is actively used to analyze log data for comp-
liance purposes or not for illegal aims..
