Webinar on “Preventive Measures of Websites in Nepal – Case Study of Libraries” organize by Tribhuvan Univeristy Central Department of Library and Information Science in partnership with Cyber Security Research and Innovation.

1. Why Use Threat Model For
Applications
 Deliver the scalability needed in large enterprise
environments
 Reduce the involvement of subject matter experts
 Make the application threat modeling process less
time consuming and tedious to implement
 Provide a meaningful output, or allow for real-time
collaboration between stakeholders

9. Cybersecurity best practices for
businesses that every employee
should know and follow
 DO NOT OPEN ANY LINKS OR DOWNLOAD ANY
ATTACHMENTS
 DO NOT CLICK ON POP-UPS
 DO NOT DISABLE FIREWALL
 ENABLE MULTI FACTOR AUTHENTICATION (MFA)

10. Cybersecurity best practices for
businesses that every employee should
know and follow
 UPDATE to the latest security patches for your
desktop
 Use Enterprise Virtual Private Network
 LOCK your devices before you leave your devices
unsupervised
 Enforce Communication with the USE of End-to-end
(E2E)
 INCREASE PASSWORD COMPLEXITY
 Beware about SHOULDER SURFING as others might
be able to see/listen to some sensitive and confidential
information.

11. Best security practices that every
business should follow
 Review your Business Continuity Planning (BCP)
and Procedures.
 Update your Organization’s Infrastructures
 Use of Multi-Factor Authentication
 Strictly Monitor user access and user roles:
 Define access right for your Infrastructure

12. Best security practices that every
business should follow
 Reduce timeout for employees accessing
organization resources remotely
 Backup and store data securely
 Ensure physical security measures are taken by
employees

13. Incident Response Plan during Work
From Home
 Make a list of critical infrastructures that need
addressing.
 Prioritize the infrastructures accordingly.
 Maintain a detail overview of organizations
network architecture.
 Assign the incident lead task to a relevant person
who will communicate with the team.
 Train all staff to distinguish fake emails from the
real ones and immediately report the suspicious
emails or attachments.

14. Work From Home Cybersecurity
Basics: Incident Response Planning
 Make a complete backup of the system so that they
can be restored in a timely manner in case of
incident.
Checklists:
1. Who is responsible to react to the incident at first and
take a lead on it?
2. Who is responsible for each process of the Incidence
Response?
3. If the team needs third party expertise. How will be
communication handled?
4. How is legal part of the incident handled?

15. Do's and Don'ts of Effective Incident
Response Procedure
1) First of all, don’t panic.
2) Don’t shut down any infected systems as it might delete the juicy
data which is very important when performing forensics
investigation.
3) Don’t use any non-forensic tools as they can overwrite the timeline
associated with the attack.
4) Collect logs from different areas.
For windows collect application/security/system logs from event
viewer
For Linux collect /var/log/*
5) Don’t wipe any non-important files/data.

16. Defense in Depth Planning
Physical control:
Technical control
Administrative control

17. Technical control
 Firewall
 Intrusion prevention system for Network and host devices.
 Advanced anti-malware
 Anti-spam and anti-phishing at the Web and messaging
gateways
 Web reputation
 Application control
 Content filtering
 Vulnerability shielding
 Mobile app reputation
 Effective cyber security awareness training for all employees

18. Steps To Take After a Data Breach

19. Steps To Take After a Data Breach
1) Notify immediately:
2) Notify what information has been breached
3) Request for Modification

20. Steps To Take After a Data Breach
4) Investigating the incident
5) Find & Mitigating Vulnerabilities
