The document discusses the key aspects of building a next generation Security Operations Centre (SOC). It emphasizes that skilled people, well-defined processes, and integrating new technologies are critical. Specifically, it recommends adopting automation and analytics to analyze large datasets, integrating threat intelligence from multiple sources, and establishing red and blue teams to continuously test defenses. The goal of a next generation SOC is to use predictive analysis of vast security data to improve threat detection, response, and the overall security posture of an organization.
Talking about Next-Gen Security Operation Center for IDNIC+APJII as representative from IDSECCONF. People-Centric SOC requires lot of investment on human in terms of quantity and quality, unfortunately, (good) IT security people are getting rare these days. Organisation need to put their investments more on technology, as in Industry 4.0, machines are getting more advanced to support Human on doing continuous and repetitive task.
Moving from “traditional” to next-gen SOC require proper plan, thats what this talk was about.

Definition
Gartner defines a SOC as both a team, often operating in shifts around the clock, and a facility dedicated to and organized to prevent, detect, assess and respond to cybersecurity threats and incidents, and to fulfill and assess regulatory compliance. The term "cybersecurity operation center "is often used synonymously for SOC.
A network operations center (NOC) is not a SOC, which focuses on network device management rather than detecting and responding to cybersecurity incidents. Coordination between the two is common, however.
A managed security service is not the same as having a SOC — although a service provider may offer services from a SOC. A managed service is a shared resource and not solely dedicated to a single organization or entity. Similarly, there is no such thing as a managed SOC.
Most of the technologies, processes and best practices that are used in a SOC are not specific to a SOC. Incident response or vulnerability management remain the same, whether delivered from a SOC or not. It is a meta-topic, involving many security domains and disciplines, and depending on the services and functions that are delivered by the SOC.
Services that often reside in a SOC are:
• Cyber security incident response
• Malware analysis
• Forensic analysis
• Threat intelligence analysis
• Risk analytics and attack path modeling
• Countermeasure implementation
• Vulnerability assessment
• Vulnerability analysis
• Penetration testing
• Remediation prioritization and coordination
• Security intelligence collection and fusion
• Security architecture design
• Security consulting
• Security awareness training
• Security audit data collection and distribution
Alternative names for SOC :
Security defense center (SDC)

How To Turbo-Charge Incident Response With Threat IntelligenceResilient Systems
Minutes, hours, days - each one counts when responding to a security incident. Yet most firms have a lot of room for improvement. According to the 2013 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, in 66% of cases (up from 56% last year), breaches remained undiscovered for years, and in 22% of cases, it took months to fully contain the incident.
This webinar will review the challenges firms face in trying to create a rapid and decisive incident response (IR) process. It will then highlight the crucial role that timely, contextual threat intelligence can play in turbo-charging incident response, particularly when tightly integrated with the broader IR discipline. Finally, it will reveal the power of this approach by demonstrating Co3's integrated threat intelligence capabilities including intel from industry-leader iSIGHT Partners.
Some organizations have the resources and skills to secure their IT infrastructure against security threats; however, many organizations cannot do so. Organizations have a state-of-the-art security software solution or pay thousands of dollars for security tools. Even after that, no organization is entirely secure. Certified Threat Intelligence Analyst (C|TIA) allows cybersecurity professionals to enhance their skills in building sufficient organizational cyber threat intelligence. It is a specialist-level program. CTIA is an examination that tests the individuals’ skills and prepares them to make useful threat intelligence in the organization.

In this presentation we will look at the cause and effect of the problem, analyze preparedness and learn how you can better prepare, detect, respond and recover from cyber-attacks.
Lessons Learned Fighting Modern Cyberthreats in Critical ICS NetworksAngeloluca Barba
A presentation given in April 2019 in London during ICS Cyber Security Conference. I discuss an anonymized investigation conducted by our team to identify a real malware infection on a production network, the tools and techniques used to contain this threat and how to use threat intelligence and visibility to stay ahead of cyber adversaries.
Asset visibility and network baselining
Continuous network monitoring
Threat intelligence ingestion
Thorough incident response plans
Learn how to overcome security challenges, such as: identity theft, spoofed transactions, DDoS business disruption, criminal extortion and more. You'll learn how a security strategy promotes confidence in the cloud.
Your Challenge
As the market evolves, capabilities that were once cutting edge become default and new functionality becomes differentiating.
Vendors use a lot of marketing jargon, buzzwords, and statistics to sell their solutions, making objective evaluation rather difficult.
The endpoint protection (EPP) market is overcrowded and fragmented, resulting in information overload and consequently, a difficult vendor assessment.
Disparate product solutions are being bundled into one-off solutions or suites, often resulting in less efficient solutions than the more niche players.
Imminent obsolescence is an issue. Previous EPP solutions have not adapted with the rapidly evolving threat landscape and are no longer relevant, resulting in breaches or vulnerabilities.
Critical Insight
Don’t let vendors and market reports define your endpoint protection needs. Identify the use cases and corresponding feature sets that best align with your risk profile before evaluating the vendor marketspace.
Your security controls are diminishing in value (if they haven’t already). Develop a strategy that accounts for the rapid evolution and imminent obsolescence of your endpoint controls. Plan for future needs when making purchasing decisions today.
Endpoint protection is a matter of defense in depth and risk modelling, there is no silver bullet protection and mitigation solution. As end-client-technology providers release regular product/software updates, security tools will become outdated. Multiyear endpoint protection commitments will leave you playing a constant game of catch up.
Impact and Result
The solution is a holistic internal security assessment that not only identifies, but satisfies, your desired endpoint protection feature set with the corresponding endpoint protection suite and a comprehensive implementation strategy.
Use this blueprint to walk through the steps of selecting and implementing an endpoint protection solution that best aligns with your organizational needs.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Security Operations Centre?
What is a Security Operations Centre (SOC)?
• A facility to protect enterprise information systems such as applications,
network devices, servers, databases and data centres.
• Provides services which could include (not limited to):
• Security Administration
• System and Event Monitoring
• Management of Malware
• Incident Response
• Security Investigations
• Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing
• Technology Configuration and Deployment
• Security Engineering
• Support Services
4. 4
We have never had a security incident
A misconception
• Most of us are familiar with the concept of Preventative, Detective and
Corrective Controls.
• A professionally designed SOC with the right tools and skills can deal with
strengthen the detective aspects which is a vital pillar in your security
posture.
• The vast majority of preventative controls can be defeated much comes
down to the determination and skill set of the attackers.

Staffing models
SOC teams
Several options exist for staffing of the various models
Key questions:
Should the organization use its own employees?
Should staff be mixed and partially outsourced?
Should the whole process be fully outsourced?
11. 11
Employees
Staffing
Characteristics
• The organization performs all of its security incident work using its own
employees, with limited external support.
• Given the skills required in a next generation SOC this is extremely difficult
to achieve.
14. 14
Selecting the appropriate model
Team model selection factors
Factors to be considered
• The need for 24/7 availability
• Full time or part-time members
• Cost
• Expertise
• Outsourcing
• Technical Resources
15. 15
Process
Process Maturity and the Human Factor is key
• Clear defined processes are fundamental to the success of a SOC. Such
process need to be repeatable and clearly defined and understood.
• NIST SP800-61 R2 Computer Security Incident Handling Guide and ISO
27035 can provide some clear guidance in this area.
• However our aim is not to define rigid inflexible processes. Our analysts
need to be able to use their own expertise and skills to provide an effective
service.
16. 16
Red and Blue Teams
Processes which require rules of engagement
• Blue teams usually defend information systems (main part of a SOC).
• Red teams are employed to test the defences and launch attacks to test not
only defences but the organisations ability to detect and respond.
• These teams are at the cutting edge of any mature SOC but clear rules of
engagement must be defined.
17. 17
Technologies
A blend of technology
Security Monitoring –
Beyond SIEM
Vulnerability
scanners,
firewalls,
WAFs,
IDS/IPS
Asset data,
threat
intelligence.
System logs,
FIM Solutions
Network
traffic,
endpoint data,
security events
18. 18
Context
Data requires clear context
• Alerting tools can provide many individual pieces of information.
• Individual pieces of information such as ip address of an endpoint does not
however tell the whole story.
• Rich data from multiple sources as such asset type, time, known/detected
vulnerabilities, user action, file types and threat intelligence can mean the
difference when deciding on key actions.
19. 19
The next generation SOC
Where are things heading?
Many technologies, processes and skills are required but what does a next
generation SOC look like? First we need to understand the various
generations:
Image from HP Arcsight 5G SOC Business Whitepaper
20. 20
Next Generation
• Automated solutions which can analyse large data sets can more effectively
identify threats and attacks using machine learning.
• Automation does not replace the analyst but allows analysts to be more
focussed on the human aspects of attacks and intelligence
• Whilst attacks maybe automated ultimately attacks are driven based on
human behaviour. Our analysts need therefore to be more than technical
experts. They need to understand topics like counter intelligence,
surveillance and criminal psychology.
Analytics, Big Data and Human Behaviour
21. 21
Next Generation
“It takes constant monitoring and maximum use of data to find attacks and
abnormal behaviour before damage is done. But the world produces over 2.5
quintillion bytes of data every day, and 80 per cent of it is unstructured. This
means it’s expressed in natural language — spoken, written or visual — that a
human can easily understand but traditional security systems can’t.”
— IBM Cognitive Security
Analytics, Big Data and Human Behaviour –
a quote from IBM
22. 22
Next Generation
• With this considered the ability to analyse large data sets of threat and
business intelligence to detect patterns is a key skills of an equipped SOC.
This means mathematicians, statisticians, and data scientists play a role as
the next SOC analyst.
• Threat intelligence is a crucial input but does not come from one source.
SOC leaders need to be identifying data from multiple sources.
• Red and Blue teams roles increase in importance for instant readiness
along with hunt teams freed from day to day processes.
Analytics, Big Data and Human Behaviour
23. 23
Next Generation
• All of the traditional areas of focus for a SOC still apply though
new areas exist:
IoT devices
API’s
Remote Access Solutions
Cloud services
Converged networks
Web based applications
Endpoints and devices
Federated identity management systems
Focus Areas
24. 24
Next Generation
• A next generation SOC has at its heart:
• Collection of raw logs and live data from all parts of the environment
• Ability to use predictive analysis based on vast data sets including
human intelligence
• Threat detection from multiple sources
• Multi skilled dynamic teams
• A business focus and delivery of a holistic service
• The ability leverage non security tools to analyse data
• The environment to share and receive knowledge and expertise
across industry
What sets a next generation SOC apart?
25. 25
Key Messages
• A SOC is at the heart of any organisation’s security posture.
• It needs to be dynamic constantly learning and adapting.
• Skilled and motivated people are crucial to success. Learning and
experience is constant.
• Tasks can be shared with third parties but internal ownership is of
paramount importance.
• Preventative controls will only take you so far.
• Automation to interrogate large data sets to add context to provide
intelligence will support the right decisions.
• A SOC should cover all aspects of an organisations architecture and should
be aligned to real business processes.
