SWVHSC: Mapping MITRE ATT&CK to PCI DSS - Jeff Man - ESW #193 Aug 07, 2020

Show notes

MITRE ATT&CK seems to be the "next big thing". Every time I hear about it I can't help but wonder, "how do you prevent all these attacks in the first place? Shouldn't that be the end game?" To that end, I set out to map all the recommended "Mitigations" for all the "Techniques" detailed in ATT&CK to see how many are already addressed by what is required in the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). My hypothesis was all of them. The results were interesting and a little surprising, and I'm still trying to figure out how to best use the results and subsequently ATT&CK itself. I will present my findings in the briefing and hopefully generate a discussion about what to do with the results.

SWVHSC: Put Zero Trust in Your Devices - John Loucaides - ESW #193 Aug 06, 2020

Show notes

The recent shift to a remote work environment has created new challenges for many businesses and government institutions with profound impacts on organizational security models. Users are no longer protected by the many layers of security found on-premise in the corporate network. Organizations must adapt security policies to support a massive influx of inbound connections. Security teams must consider how to adapt core security concepts like Zero Trust to include remote work environments that include corporate laptops, BYOD devices, and home networking gear. Join our conversation as we discuss how much trust you can put in your devices as well as what organizations are doing to assess and verify device integrity down to the firmware and hardware level. Eclypsium will also discuss the #BootHoleVulnerability research they disclosed last week.

SWVHSC: How Security Spending Overlooks the Biggest Risk of All - Matt Ashburn - BSW #183 Aug 05, 2020

Show notes

Global spending on cyber security totals over $100 billion per year, with no upper limit in sight as adversaries remain successful at compromising even well-resourced organizations. Why do adversaries remain successful despite advances in security technologies and risk frameworks? As it turns out, an often-overlooked architecture from 30 years ago is a common thread among many successful attacks. By re-thinking the ubiquitous web browser and its connection to the internet, CIOs and CISOs can nearly eliminate their internet risk surface, provide users the tools and access they need, and free up incident responders to focus on more advanced threats.

MIDAS - Siddharth Bhatia - PSW #660 Aug 01, 2020

Show notes

MIDAS uses unsupervised learning to detect anomalies in a streaming manner in real-time and has become a new baseline. It was designed keeping in mind the way recent sophisticated attacks occur. MIDAS can be used to detect intrusions, Denial of Service (DoS), Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, financial fraud and fake ratings. MIDAS combines a chi-squared goodness-of-fit test with the Count-Min-Sketch (CMS) streaming data structures to get an anomaly score for each edge. It then incorporates temporal and spatial relations to achieve better performance. MIDAS provides theoretical guarantees on the false positives and is three orders of magnitude faster than existing state of the art solutions.
