Abstract: While vulnerability assessments are an essential part of understanding your risk profile, it's simply not realistic to expect to eliminate all vulnerabilities from your environment. So, when your scan produces a long list of vulnerabilities, how do you prioritize which ones to remediate first? By data criticality? CVSS score? Asset value? Patch availability? Without understanding the context of the vulnerable systems on your network, you may waste time checking things off the list without really improving security. Join AlienVault for this session to learn: *The pros & cons of different types of vulnerability scans - passive, active, authenticated, unauthenticated *Vulnerability scores and how to interpret them *Best practices for prioritizing vulnerability remediation *How threat intelligence can help you pinpoint the vulnerabilities that matter  most

The Need for Vulnerability Management
Too many compromises due to:
• Unknown systems
• Unknown data
• Unpatched vulns
Need a process to determine what to patch, work

Detection is the New Black
“There's a trend underway in the information
security field to shift from a prevention
mentality to a focus on rapid detection”
“Your detection & response capabilities are
more important than blocking & prevention”

Assessment Scans
Combination of Techniques is Ideal
Passive/Continuous: Monitors network traffic
Active: Sends data to devices to generate a
response
Credential: Logs on to individual systems
Agent: Dedicated agent installed on subset of
devices
Benefits: Visibility, Assets Values, Grouping

Vulnerability Prioritization
CVSS: Common Vulnerability Scoring System
• Base Metric Score from 0-10
- 7.0 - 10.0 = High
- 4.0 - 6.9 = Medium
- 0 - 3.9 = Low
- Average = 6.8

Prioritizing Remediation & Mitigation
Understanding the Context
Other software installed

What traffic do these
vulnerable hosts
generate?
Are these systems
targeted by malicious
hosts?
Have these systems
generated any alarms
previously?
Is there a patch or
workaround available?

Threat Correlation & Intelligence
Risk = Assets x Vulnerabilities x Threats
Correlation is Essential
• Correlate asset information with vulnerability
data and threat data
• Correlate IDS alarms with vulnerabilities
- Is the host being attacked actually
vulnerable to the exploit attempt?
Threat Intelligence
• Threat landscape is constantly changing
• Tools need to keep pace

No Silver Bullet
Limitations of Vulnerability Management
• Can’t patch everything at once
• Patch ≠ No Compromise
- Focused, patient attacker will get in
• BYOD = No patch
• Zero-day = No patch
• Do the names Edward Snowden or Bradley
Manning ring a bell?

5 Tips
1. Think like an attacker
• They may not be after your data
2. It all starts with the network
• Regular network assessment scans are essential
3. Unify & automate security controls
• You can’t keep up with the data
4. Use threat intelligence to prioritize remediation
• Only way to keep up with changing landscape
5. Remember it is an ongoing process
• It does not end with a checkbox

Vulnerability Management is the lifecycle of identifying and remediating vulnerabilities in an organization's enterprise. A number of companies are starting to do this well, but in some cases, focus on advanced and emerging threats has had the unintended consequence of leaving Vulnerability Management unattended. Defense is actually hard work and people aren't doing it as well as they should! Considered in the context of asymmetric warfare, Blue Teaming is more difficult than Red Teaming. Coupled with the fact that most vulnerabilities do not actually suffer from advanced attacks and 0-days, Vulnerability Management must be the cornerstone of any Information Assurance Program. The speakers, Kevin Dunn and Damon Small, will describe the key elements of a mature Vulnerability Management Program (VMP) and the pitfalls encountered by many organizations as they try to implement it. Dunn and Small will include detailed examples of why purchasing the scanner should be one of the last decisions made in this process, and what the attendee must do to ensure the successful defense of company assets and data. This session will cover: - Vulnerability Management: What is it good for? - What is it not good for? - How do I make a real difference?

Implementing Vulnerability Management

Argyle Executive Forum

Derek Milroy, IS Security Architect at U.S. Cellular Corporation, defined “vulnerability management” and how it affects today’s organizations during his presentation at the 2014 Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) Leadership Forum in Chicago on Nov. 19. In his presentation, “Enterprise Vulnerability Management/Security Incident Response,” Milroy noted vulnerability management has different meanings to different organizations, but an organization that utilizes vulnerability management processes can effectively safeguard its data. According to Milroy, an organization should develop its own vulnerability management baselines to monitor its security levels. By doing so, Milroy said an organization can launch and control vulnerability management systems successfully. In addition, Milroy pointed out that vulnerability management problems occasionally will arise, but a well-prepared organization will be equipped to handle such issues: “Problems are going to happen … You have to work with your people. This can translate to any tool that you’re putting in place. Make sure your people have plans for what happens when it goes wrong, because it’s going to [happen] every single time.” Milroy also noted that having actionable vulnerability management data is important for organizations of all sizes. If an organization evaluates its vulnerability management processes regularly, Milroy said, it can collect data and use this information to improve its security: “The simplest rule of thumb for vulnerability management, click the report, hand the report to someone. Don’t ever do that. There is no such thing as a report from a tool that you can just click and hand to someone until you first tune it and pare it down.” - See more at: http://www.argylejournal.com/chief-information-security-officer/enterprise-vulnerability-managementsecurity-incident-response-derek-milroy-is-security-architect-u-s-cellular-corporation/#sthash.Buh6CzLS.dpuf

7 Steps to Build a SOC with Limited Resources

LogRhythm

Most organizations don't have the resources to staff a 24x7 security operations center (SOC). This results in events that aren't monitored around the clock, major delays in detecting and responding to incidents, and the inability for the team to proactively hunt for threats. It's a dangerous situation. But there is a solution. By using the Threat Lifecycle Management framework to combine people, process, and technology to automate manual tasks, your team can rapidly detect and respond to threats—without adding resources. Read on to learn 7 steps to building your SOC, even when your resources are limited.

Moving from “traditional” to next-gen SOC require proper plan, thats what this talk was about.

Vulnerability and Assessment Penetration Testing

Yvonne Marambanyika

VAPT defines the security measures that are supposed to be put in place to address cyber threats. There are plenty of strategies that can be adopted in Pen Testing which include Black Box Pen Test, White Box Pen Text, Hidden Pen Test, Internal Pen Test, and Gray Box Testing. It is mandatory that VAPT is conducted in order to deter cyber-attacks that are on the upsurge daily. These VAPT ranges from Mobile, Network Penetration Testing, and Vulnerability Assessments. There are many merits to VAPT in your business which include early error detection in program codes which will prevent cyber attacks. Most companies lose billions of dollars due to cyber-attacks. With VAPT, it guarantees that all loopholes are tightened before an intrusion transpires.

Application Security - Your Success Depends on it

WSO2

Traditional information security mainly revolves around network and operating system (OS) level protection. Regardless of the level of security guarding those aspects, the system can be penetrated and the entire deployment can be brought down if your application's security isn't taken into serious consideration. Information security should ideally start at the application level, before network and OS level security is ensured. To achieve this, security needs to be integrated into the application at the software development phase. In this session, Dulanja will discuss the following: The importance of application security - why network and OS security is insufficient. Challenges in securing your application. Making security part of the development lifecycle.

How-To-Guide for Software Security Vulnerability Remediation

Denim Group

The security industry often pays a tremendous amount of attention to finding security vulnerabilities. This is done via code review, penetration testing and other assessment methods. Unfortunately, finding vulnerabilities is only the first step toward actually addressing the associated risks, and addressing these risks is arguably the most critical step in the vulnerability management process. Complicating matters is the fact that most application security vulnerabilities cannot be fixed by members of the security team but require code-level changes in order to successfully address the underlying issue. Therefore, security vulnerabilities need to be communicated and transferred to software development teams and then prioritized and added to their workloads. This paper ex- amines steps required to remediate software-level vulnerabilities properly, and recommends best practices organizations can use to be successful in their remediation efforts.

Conducting regular security assessments on the organizational network and computer systems has become a vital part of protecting information-computing assets. Security assessments are a proactive and offensive posture towards information security as compared to the traditional reactive and defensive stance normally implemented with the use of Access Control-Lists (ACLs) and firewalls. Too effectively conduct a security assessment so it is beneficial to an organization, a proven methodology must be followed so the assessors and assesses are on the same page. This presentation will evaluate the benefits of credential scanning, scanning in a virtual environment, distributed scanning as well as vulnerability management.

How Malware Works

AlienVault

With malware accounting for at least 40% of all breaches, knowing how malware works can be an extremely valuable asset in your threat detection cache – especially for the incident responder. According to Verizon’s 2013 Data Breach Investigations Report, “Malware and hacking still rank as the most common [threat] actions”. In general, malware can range from being simple annoyances like pop-up advertising to causing serious damage like stealing passwords and data or infecting other machines on the network. Malware is as old as software itself and although there are new types of malware constantly under development, they generally fall into a few broad categories. Check out this SlideShare to learn how malware works, and what we believe are the most common types of malware you should be prepared for. By learning how malware works and recognizing its different types, you’ll understand: - How they find their way into your network - How attackers control them remotely - How they use your systems for nefarious purposes - And most importantly, the security controls you need to effectively defend against and detect malware infections. (Hint: you need more than antivirus!)

What Every Developer And Tester Should Know About Software Security

Anne Oikarinen

Software security is best built in. This presentation introduces three essential things to help you design more secure software. In order to have a secure foundation, you can create and select security requirements for your applications using evil user stories and utilizing existing material for example from OWASP. Another useful skill is threat modeling which helps you to assess security already in the design phase. Threat modeling helps you deliver better software, prioritize your preventive security measures, and focus penetration testing to the most risky parts of the system. The presentation covers various methods, such as the STRIDE model, for finding security and privacy threats. You will also learn what kind of security related testing you can do without having any infosec background.

Improve threat detection with hids and alien vault usm

AlienVault

Host-based intrusion dection systems (HIDS) work by monitoring activity that is occurring internally on a host. HIDS look for unusual or nefarious activity by examining logs created by the operating system, looking for changes made to key system files, tracking installed software, and sometimes examining the network connections a host makes. AlienVault USM integrates HIDS with other key security controls to help you get the most out of HIDS, including: Analyzing system behavior and configuration status to track user access and activity Detecting system compromise, modification of critical configuration files (e.g. registry settings, /etc/passwd), common rootkits, and rogue processes Correlating HIDS data with known IP reputation, vulnerability scans and more Logging and reporting for PCI compliance

The State of Incident Response - INFOGRAPHIC

AlienVault

Incident Response (IR) teams are designed to detect, investigate and, when necessary, perform remediation in the event of a critical incident. The results of the 2015 SANS Incident Response Survey provides a picture of what IR teams are up against today—the types of attacks they see, what defenses they have in place to detect and respond to these threats, and their perceived effectiveness and obstacles to incident handling. Some key challenges reported by responders to the survey were: 66% cited a skills shortage as being an impediment to effective IR: 54% cited budgetary shortages for tools and technology 45% noted lack of visibility into system or domain events 41% noted a lack of procedural reviews and practice 37% have trouble distinguishing malicious events from nonevents Do these challenges sound familiar?

Improve Threat Detection with OSSEC and AlienVault USM

AlienVault

Host-based IDS systems, or HIDS, work by monitoring activity that is occurring internally on a host. HIDS look for unusual or nefarious activity by examining logs created by the operating system, looking for changes made to key system files, tracking installed software, and sometimes examining the network connections a host makes. AlienVault USM features a complete integration of OSSEC, one of the most popular and effective open source HIDS tools. In this live demo, we'll show you how USM helps you get more out of OSSEC with: Remote agent deployment, configuration and management Behavioral monitoring of OSSEC clients Logging and reporting for PCI compliance Data correlation with IP reputation data, vulnerability scans and more We'll finish up by showing a demo of how OSSEC alert correlation can be used to detect brute force attacks with USM

Tobias Schneck

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object Calisthenics

Dorra 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!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management. The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM). Speakers: Bob Boule Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle. Gopinath Rebala Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
