How to Rapidly Identify Assets at Risk to WannaCry RansomwareQualys
A major ransomware attack using a leaked NSA exploit known as “WannaCry” has hit more than 150 countries since May 12. More than 200,000 infections globally have been detected and the attack, which uses the WannaCry (WanaCrypt0r 2.0) ransomware, continues to spread.
WannaCry utilizes the ETERNALBLUE exploit targeting newly disclosed vulnerabilities (MS17-010). Once leaked, it took only 28 days for this exploit to be used in a full-scale cyber attack. Organizations that scan for vulnerabilities only monthly or less frequently can still be at risk.
During this webcast (https://www.brighttalk.com/webcast/11673/261293) Mark Butler, CISO at Qualys and Jimmy Graham, Director of Product Management for Qualys ThreatPROTECT and AssetView, show you how to:
• Patch and implement other mitigations for WannaCry
• Detect and get full visibility on impacted assets for prompt remediation
• Institute threat-prioritized remediation processes to mitigate current and future risks
Qualys ThreatPROTECT can detect and identify patches for the vulnerabilities being exploited by ETERNALBLUE and shield your organization’s business-critical data from attacks. Sign up for a free 30 day trial and get unlimited scans. https://qualys.com/wannacry-trial
The WannaCry ransomware outbreak shook the world when it occured in May 2017.
This slidedeck looks at the attack, how it was carried out, and its success rate. It also attempts to figure out who was likely to have been behind this devastating cyber attack.

Lo Zen e l'arte dell'UX Design Mobile - by Synesthesia - festival ICT 2015festival ICT 2016
Oggi tutti parlano di UX Design, e finalmente si sta diffondendo la consapevolezza di quanto sia fondamentale una solida progettazione per determinare il successo o l’insuccesso di un prodotto o di un servizio. Nonostante questo, tuttavia ancora molti progetti soffrono di un design carente. In questo talk parleremo di come non cadere negli errori più comuni e di quali siano le best practices principali della UX Mobile di cui tenere conto quando si progetta una Mobile App, alla ricerca della felicità dell’utente (e nostra).
Criticità per la protezione dei dati personali connesse all’utilizzo di dispo...festival ICT 2016
Le problematiche che sorgono in seguito all’utilizzo dei prodotti e dei servizi dell’IoT sono molteplici. Tra queste, le maggiori sono:
a) Asimmetria informativa e mancanza di controllo sui propri dati: la condivisione di dati personali tra produttori dei dispositivi, sviluppatori di sw, provider e analisti, comporta per le persone la difficoltà ad esercitare un adeguato controllo sugli stessi, e, soprattutto, sulle finalità perseguite diverse da quelle associate al dispositivo;
b) Consenso informato: estrema difficoltà per l’utilizzatore dei dispositivi IoT di prestare un consapevole e libero consenso al trattamento dei suoi dati personali;
c) Profilazione intrusiva: l’elevata quantità di dati personali e sensibili, rende altamente possibile una profilazione sempre più sofisticata delle abitudini degli utenti;
d) Sicurezza: le attuali tecnologie IoT non hanno ancora raggiunto un livello di sicurezza adeguato.

Il cash flow è la ricostruzione dei flussi monetari (differenza tra tutte le entrate e le uscite monetarie) di una azienda nell’arco del periodo di analisi e rappresenta una misura dell’autofinanziamento aziendale. Può essere calcolato a partire dal conto economico e dai dati di bilancio dell’impresa; l’insieme dei flussi di cassa è importante per stabilire in che misura ed in che maniera possono essere remunerati i centri di costo.
Partendo dall’analisi dei bilanci di alcune PMI italiane, cercheremo di analizzare le eventuali criticità emerse nella gestione del proprio cash flow e metteremo in evidenza l’importanza e i vantaggi di un flusso di cassa positivo, identificando quali strumenti utilizzare per creare liquidità, con particolare riferimento al procurement di prodotti ICT.
Captain, Where Is Your Ship – Compromising Vessel Tracking SystemsTrend Micro
A talk given by Kyle Wilhoit and Marco Balduzzi from Trend Micro's Forward Looking Threat Research team, along with independent researcher Alessandro Pasta.
Abstract:
In recent years, automated identification systems (AISes) have been introduced to enhance vessels tracking and provide extra safety to marine traffic, on top of conventional radar installations. AIS, which is currently a mandatory installation for all passenger ships and ships over 300 metric tonnes, works by acquiring GPS coordinates and exchanging vessel’s position, course and information with nearby ships, offshore installation, i.e. harbors and traffic controls, and Internet tracking and visualizing providers.
With an estimated number of 400,000 installation, AIS is currently the best system for collision avoidance, maritime security, aids to navigation and accident investigations.
Given its primary importance in marine traffic safety, we conducted a comprehensive security evaluation of AIS, by tackling it from both a software and a hardware, radio frequency perspective.
In this talk, we share with you our finding, i.e how we have been able to hijack and perform man-in-the-middle attacks on existing vessels, take over AIS communications, tamper with the major online tracking providers and eventually fake our own yacht!.

cybercriminals move beyond the PC. By that measure, 2012 is truly
the year we entered the post-PC era as cybercriminals moved to
embrace Android, social media platforms, and even Macs with their
attacks.
Review on mobile threats and detection techniquesijdpsjournal
Since last-decade, smart-phones have gained widespread usage. Mobile devices store personal details
such as contacts and text messages. Due to this extensive growth, smart-phones are attracted towards
cyber-criminals. In this research work, we have done a systematic review of the terms related to malware
detection algorithms and have also summarized behavioral description of some known mobile malwares
in tabular form. After careful solicitation of all the possible methods and algorithms for detection of
mobile-based malwares, we give some recommendations for designing future malware detection algorithm
by considering computational complexity and detection ration of mobile malwares.
Keeping up with the Revolution in IT SecurityDistil Networks
For many of today’s businesses, web applications are their lifeline. The growing complexity involved in keeping these applications fast, secure, and available can be seen as a byproduct of shifts in how these apps are developed, deployed, and attacked. This discussion will explore how high level trends in today’s web environments and the cyber attack landscape are shaping tomorrow’s application security solutions.
Key Takeaways:
- Trends in contemporary web applications that are forcing security evolution
- How today’s cyber attack landscape impacts cybersecurity
- What modern IT security solutions look like
- Distil Networks Overview
The state of being protected against the unauthorized use of information, especially electronic data, or the measures are taken to achieve this.
"the growing use of mobile applications is posing a risk to information security"
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.
Cyber Security is a crucial and rising part of concern in the present age with a rapid increase in the graph of digitization. And with an increase in the activities in cyberspace, there is also an increase in the cyber-crimes. Handling the huge volumes of data with security has become an inevitable need of the hour. Antivirus software, Firewalls, and other technological solutions help to secure this data but are not sufficient enough to prevent the cybercrooks from destructing the network and stealing confidential information. This paper mainly focuses on the issues and challenges faced by cybersecurity. It also discusses the risks, cybersecurity techniques to curb cyber-crime, cyber ethics, and cyber trends.

Behind the scene of malware operators. Insights and countermeasures. CONFiden...Trend Micro
Modern cybercrime operates highly-sophisticated campaigns that challenge, or even evade, the state-of-art in defense and protection. On a daily basis, users worldwide are fooled by new techniques and threats that went under the radar, like new 0-days or attack vectors. We passively monitored how these attacks are conducted on real installations, and unveiled the modus operandi of malware operators. In this presentation, we share with the audience our recent findings and trends that we observed in-the-wild from the analysis we conducted on 3 million software downloads, involving hundreds of thousands of Internet connected machines. During the talk, we provide insights on our investigation like the effect of code signing abuse, the compromise of cloud providers' operations, the use of domains generated automatically via social engineering, and the business model behind modern malware campaigns. We also discuss the problem of "unknown threats", showing how the Internet's threats landscape is still largely unexplored and how it badly impacts on million of users. We conclude with a proof-of-concept system that we designed and that uses machine-learning to generate human-readable rules for detection. Our system represents a potential mitigation to the problem of "unknown threats" and an assistance tool for analysts globally.
Automated Security for the Real-time Enterprise with VMware NSX and Trend Mic...Trend Micro
In today’s real-time enterprise where we all must do more with less, the operations team is sometimes forced to take shortcuts. Forgetting to manually apply security controls is often one of the first tasks to fall by the wayside. VMs that are put in production, lacking adequate protection, leave high-risk vulnerabilities open for exploitation. Learn how building-in security automation with VMware NSX and Trend Micro Deep Security provides visibility, assesses risk, and applies the right protection. Once in operation, using the adapter for vRealize Operations, the security events become visible next to the operational events, providing a holistic view of the environment. This will be illustrated through the case study of a leading manufacturing company, Plexus Corporation, who will also share their NSX journey.
This was one of Trend Micro's sessions presented at VMworld 2017.
All content not indexed by traditional web-based search engines is known
as the DeepWeb. Wrongly been associated only with the Onion Routing
(TOR), the DeepWeb's ecosystem comprises a number of other anonymous and
decentralized networks. The Invisible Internet Project (I2P), FreeNET,
and Alternative Domain Names (like Name.Space and OpenNic) are examples
of networks leveraged by bad actors to host malware, high-resilient
botnets, underground forums and bitcoin-based cashout systems (e.g., for
cryptolockers).
We designed and implemented a prototype system called DeWA for the
automated collection and analysis of the DeepWeb, with the goal of
quickly identifying new threats as soon they appear.
In this talk, we provide concrete examples of how using DeWA to detect,
e.g., trading of illicit and counterfeit goods, underground forums,
privacy leaks, hidden dropzones, malware hosting and TOR-based botnets.
AIS Exposed: New vulnerabilities and attacks. (HITB AMS 2014)Trend Micro
AIS, Automatic Identification System, is a promoted standard and implementation for vessels traffic safety and monitoring. With more than 400,000 installations worldwide, AIS is currently a mandatory installation for commercial vessels and a de-facto equipment for leisure crafts. AIS is largely used in ports worldwide -- Rotterdam alone monitors over 700 AIS-enabled vessels each day, serving 32,000 seagoing and 87,000 inland vessels a year.
Back in October 2013, during HITB KUL, we showed that AIS is hardly broken, both at implementation and protocol level, and it suffers from severe vulnerabilities like spoofing and man-in-the-middle. In this talk, we extend our research by sharing with the audience several novel attacks that we recently discovered, for example how to extensively disable AIS communications or attack the software installed at back-end by port authorities. By doing so, we hope to raise the necessary awareness and lead the involved parties into calling for a more robust and secure AIS.
Countering the Advanced Persistent Threat Challenge with Deep DiscoveryTrend Micro
Targeted attacks and advanced persistent threats (APTs) are becoming the new norm of cyber security threats— encompassing organized, focused efforts that are custom-created to penetrate enterprises and government agencies for valuable data, trade secrets, and access to internal systems. We explore the anatomy of targeted attacks: the inner workings of the APT lifecycle, along with an in-depth overview of Trend Micro Deep Discovery advanced threat protection solution, and how it enables enterprise IT to adopt a custom defense strategy that modernizes its risk management program to defend against targeted attacks.
The Custom Defense Against Targeted AttacksTrend Micro
Advanced persistent threats (APTs) and targeted attacks have a proven ability to penetrate standard security defenses and remain undetected for months while siphoning valuable data or carrying out destructive actions. We review challenges faced by information security leaders, their options for dealing with attackers and how to a Custom Defense approach to deploy a comprehensive Detect—Analyze—Adapt—Respond lifecycle that enhances current security investments while providing new weapons to fight back against their attackers.
In this second installment of a three-part research paper series on the KOOBFACE botnet, Trend Micro threat researchers examine the botnet in more technical detail, chronicling its behavior and payloads.
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.

2. Threats Today Classification 12/16/2010 2 FACT #1: More than 80% of Today’s Top Malware Arrives via Web1 FACT #2: 3.5 new threats every second are released by cybercriminals2 1 – source TrendLabs data Apr – Sept 2010 2 – source Trend Micro Smart Protection Network
3. The Power of Trend Micro Smart Protection Network 60 billion queries every 24 hours Blocks 5.5 billion threats daily Processes 3.2 terabytes of data daily An average 102 million users connected to the network each day Classification 12/16/2010 3
4. Prediction #1 – Cloud-related issues Security Demands on cloud service providers will increase Proof of concept attacks against cloud infrastructure and virtualized systems will emerge in 2011 Diversity of Operating Systems at the endpoints forces the bad guys to focus more on critical cloud services and server infrastructures Classification 12/16/2010 4
5. Prediction #2 – Targeted Attacks and Cyber-Espionage Mid-sized companies will be targeted in cyber-espionage Easy-to-use underground toolkits enable targeted attacks on particular types of organization ZeuS primarily targeted small businesses in 2010 Growth of targeted and localized attacks will continue both against big name brands and/or critical infrastructure Classification 12/16/2010 5
6. Prediction #3 – The Cybercrime Underground Evolution Further consolidation in the cybercrime underground Groups merge and/or join forces as global, public attention for cyber attacks grows Example: ZeuS / SpyEye Classification 12/16/2010 6
7. Prediction #4 – Clever Malware Campaigning It’s all about social engineering. Fewer infiltrated websites, more cleverly crafted and localized HTML e-mails with URL’s pointing to the infection source Malware campaigning will ensure fast and reliable spreading of the downloader The downloader then downloads randomly generated binaries to avoid detection Classification 12/16/2010 7
8. Prediction #5 – Malware Attacks Increasing use of stolen or legitimate digital certificates in malware attacks, to avoid detection Huge growth in use of complex domain generation algorithms (as used by Conficker & LICAT) in Advanced Persistent Threats, and increase in Java-based attacks Classification 12/16/2010 8
9. Prediction #6 – Focus for Vulnerabilities and Exploits Growth in exploits for alternative operating systems, programs and web browsers, combined with tremendous growth in the use of application vulnerabilities (Flash, etc) Classification 12/16/2010 9
10. Prediction #7 – Security Vendors Become Targets Security vendors’ brands will increasingly be targeted by criminals Result: Confusion and insecurity among users Classification 12/16/2010 10
11. Prediction #8 – Mobile Risks More proof of concept, and some successful attacks on mobile devices, but not yet mainstream Cybercriminals will explore profitability of mobile device attacks, but monoculture is required before such attacks become mainstream Classification 12/16/2010 11
12. Prediction #9 – Old Malware Reinfections Some security vendors will run into trouble with local signatures not being able to store all the threat information They will retire old signatures which will lead to infections with old/outdated malware Classification 12/16/2010 12
13. Prediction #10 – Vulnerable Legacy Systems Targeted attacks on “unpatchable” (but widely used) legacy systems Windows 2000/Windows XP SP2 Embedded systems like Telecom switchboards etc. Classification 12/16/2010 13

Thanks to easy-to-use underground toolkits, mid-sized companies will be targeted in cyber-espionage. In 2010, the use of underground toolkits exploded, making it easier to target particular types of organizations. ZeuS primarily targeted small businesses in 2010. Moving forward, localized and targeted attacks are expected to continue to grow in their number and sophistication both against big name brands and/or critical infrastructure.
