AlienVault.webp 2020-04-14 12:00:00 Can incident response be fun? (lien direct) Cyber attacks are unfortunately inevitable. It’s important to security harden your networks as much as possible. But your organization must also be prepared for incident response. Effective incident response involves an awareness of various cyber risks and threats, having a plan to respond to the various ways they manifest, and having a team that can think quick on their feet when they actually occur. Sadly, many of the people in the cybersecurity industry who I speak with regularly tell me that many organizations aren’t ready for cyber incidents. Sometimes it takes a lot of caffeine and willpower for me to do my work. But I never need an excuse to play games. I’ll impulsively play a game on my phone while I’m on the subway. I unwind on my couch at home to play video games to relax. And when friends come to visit, I can’t wait to set up a good old fashioned board game. Games have a natural appeal to human nature. If you’ve heard of the word gamification before, you know that games don’t have to only be for entertainment. New York University’s Adam Penenberg studies gamification (turning learning or doing work into a game). He writes: “Turns out, gamification works great on students. And apparently employees like it just as much. Companies that train large volumes of staff are rushing to use games, in a variety of forms. The goal is the same: turn a boring, repetitive and difficult series of tasks into an enjoyable, interesting activity that gets better results. Games provide intrinsic motivation—that is, people play them because they want to—as opposed to bribing someone with a raise (an extrinsic motivation).” So what if gamification can prepare IT professionals to improve their incident response? Well, cybersecurity people are a bunch of nerds. And everyone knows nerds love tabletop roleplaying games like Dungeons and Dragons. CISO Michael Ball had an epiphany. He decided to turn incident response into a tabletop roleplaying game. His game is called Breach the Keep. I asked him what inspired him to invent the game. “I've done tons of executive training, both as the executive being trained, and as the trainer. Boring scripts, little engagement. No real team building. The CSIRT (computer security incident response team) has to be a team.  Not just a group you pull together in an emergency! They have to know on another's roles, and how to communicate with each other and the corporate stake holders before the chaos of a breach. None of the training I've seen to date engages the executives to develop the camaraderie of a team.” Roleplaying games are all about using your imagination, and they’re often set in a high fantasy setting. Breach the Keep is no exception. As the datasheet describes: “We will take you back in time into the realms of medieval and have a little fun with our version of Dungeons and Dragons. Through multiple scenarios we can help enhance your company’s team building abilities, identify gaps within the team and improve real world incident response time. Although the game is designed to imply information security type scenarios, we are going to use our imaginations and move the entire group back 400 years into the past. Instead of datacenters, we're protecting the castle’s keep.” Ball describes the roles in the game. “The CEO is the King or Queen. The CIO is Commander in Arms. CISO is the Mage or Viseer. HR (human resources department) is Chancellor. Corp Comms is the Town Cryer. Network Admins are Cavalry, and Security Analysts are Knights.” The datasheet explains some of the basics of the game. “Players will be giv Studies

AlienVault.webp 2020-03-31 12:00:00 9 Reasons to hire an InfoSec candidate without experience: Focus on skillset vs. experience (lien direct) This blog was written by an independent guest blogger. $37-$145k jobs for InfoSec specialists without experience. Hiring immediately. This is what a simple internet search has to offer for people looking to get entry-level jobs in Information security (InfoSec), or cybersecurity. It seems like a good deal, considering that the requirements for candidates are much lower compared to many other jobs. But hold on a second, why are employers willing to pay so much money to someone who has little or no experience? There are at least nine legit answers to this question. Below, I’m going to describe these reasons to help employers understand why hiring InfoSec candidates without experience is a good idea. 9 Reasons to hire an InfoSec candidate without experience 1. Talent shortage There’s a shortage of skilled InfoSec professionals in all industries, which leaves valuable data more vulnerable to cyberattacks (and keeps companies looking for talent). Surveys and studies suggest significant shortages already. According to iSC Cybersecurity Workforce Study 2019, for example, the global cybersecurity workforce gap is about 4.07 million. iSC cybersecurity workforce study The report suggests that the current cybersecurity workforce needs to increase by 62 percent to meet the needs of businesses. That’s why organizations and businesses are taking the initiative by reducing the barriers to enter the field for young specialists. 2. Cyberattacks are becoming more frequent and successful The global cost of cybercrime in 2018 alone was estimated to be over $45 billion, and this amount rises every year. Three kinds of attacks - ransomware, spoofing/BEC, and spear-phishing - have seen the most increase, says AT&T Cybersecurity report. increase in attacks Besides, the attacks are becoming more sophisticated and successful (according to AT&T): The average cost of a one successful cybersecurity accident involving data loss increased from $4.9 million to $7.5 million 88 percent of cybersecurity professionals have reported an increase in threats in the past year Cybercrime is becoming commercialized, meaning that criminals sell attack components on the dark web A person without coding knowledge can now launch and relaunch a sophisticated cyber-attack thanks to tools and code sold online. 3. The requirement to have a degree isn’t regulated by anyone Unlike fields like medicine where one must have a degree to practice the profession, InfoSec entry-level specialists can freely begin their careers without one. The risk of being outcompeted by those with an academic degree in cybersecurity is lower compared to other fields. For one, a lack of a degree in cyber-security doesn’t affect the salary. According to the 2020 Cybersecurity Salary Survey, 55 percent of individuals working as a cyber “security analyst/threat intelligence expert” without a degree earn between $51K and $90K. salaries with no academic degree Credit: 2020 Cybersecurity Salary Survey This finding was similar across many other professions, including penetration tester, network security engineer, security/cloud architect, and security directo Studies

We dug into studies and surveys of the industry's landscape to get a sense of the lay of the land-both in terms of what's happening and how security leaders are reacting to it. If you want data on what systems are most vulnerable, what malware is topping the charts, and how much people are getting paid to deal with it all, read on.9 key cybersecurity statistics at-a-glance 94% of malware is delivered via email Phishing attacks account for more than 80% of reported security incidents $17,700 is lost every minute due to phishing attacks 60 percent of breaches involved vulnerabilities for which a patch was available but not applied 63 percent of companies said their data was potentially compromised within the last twelve months due to a hardware- or silicon-level security breach Attacks on IoT devices tripled in the first half of 2019. fileless attacks grew by 256 percent over the first half of 2019 Data breaches cost enterprises an average of $3.92 million 40 percent of IT leaders say cybersecurity jobs are the most difficult to fill The year in vulnerabilities  Let's start by getting basic: no matter how many new and exotic vulnerabilities you'll hear about, in this article and others on cybersecurity, there's one that towers over all the rest. In an examination of thousands of security incidents, Verizon found that almost all malware arrived on computers via email: this was true in 94 percent of cases. In not unrelated news, the number one type of social engineering attack, accounting for more than 80 percent of reported incidents, is phishing-the end goal of which is often to convince users to install malware. So if you want to improve your security posture, you know where to start. (And before you think of phishing as some kind of sinister Eastern European or Nigerian scam, know that 40 percent of phishing command and control servers are in the US.) Malware Studies Guideline

AlienVault.webp 2019-09-23 13:00:00 How to justify your cybersecurity budget in 2019 (lien direct) It’s less expensive to prevent cyber attacks than it is to repair the damage when they happen. Companies and institutions across industries lose money from cyber attacks all the time.  There are the more obvious ways like piracy, data breaches, and litigation. There are also ways that accountants can’t quite put a dollar figure on, such as reputational damage that makes customers and clientele less likely to want to buy a company’s products and services in the future. Everything is digital these days, both on premises and in the cloud. So cybersecurity staff and security measures are things you have to spend money on. But how should your company determine how much money to budget for security? And how should your company determine how to spend it? cute little pink pig piggybank Photo by Fabian Blank on Unsplash What is a typical cybersecurity budget? While there is no one-size-fits-all answer when trying to decide what a “typical budget” looks like for cybersecurity operations, there are a few studies that have been done that can provide some insight. A recent study by Deloitte and the Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Center found that financial services on average spend 10% of their IT budgets on cybersecurity. That’s approximately 0.2% to 0.9% of company revenue or $1,300 to $3,000 spent per full time employee. For a bigger picture benchmark, consider that Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella recently revealed in a statement that the tech behemoth “will invest more than $1 billion each year in cybersecurity for the foreseeable future”. Finally, it’s worth noting that the 2019 U.S. President’s budget allocated $15 billion in spending on cybersecurity, about 0.3% of the entire fiscal budget ($4.746 trillion). And while none of these figures can clarify what a “typical” budget should look like for the average business or organization, they can at least provide a benchmark for how larger tech firms, financial service companies and governments are allocating cybersecurity spend as a percentage of overall budget. Considerations for your cybersecurity budget There are so many different variables and factors involved when it comes to determining your cybersecurity budget. I’ll offer you some tips which can be used as a starting point to help your company decide. I asked Kate Brew, from AT&T Cybersecurity, to send a tweet to get views from various industry decision makers. The question was “Cybersecurity budgets come in many sizes. How does your company determine yours?” Here are some responses, which should illustrate what typical cybersecurity budgets are. Some of the responses were a bit tongue-in-cheek: “They keep me far away from budget/financial decisions at my company but I’d like to think a d20 is involved somehow...” (I love Dungeons and Dragons references!) “Yeah. They most often range in size from ‘miniscule,’ to ‘barely visible to the unaided eye.’” “Pick a number and subtract that number from itself. That& Threat Studies Deloitte

AlienVault.webp 2019-07-25 13:00:00 Can you trust threat intelligence from threat sharing communities? | AT&T ThreatTraq (lien direct) Every week the AT&T Chief Security Office produces a series called ThreatTraq with helpful information and news commentary for InfoSec practitioners and researchers.  I really enjoy them; you can subscribe to the Youtube channel to stay updated. This is a transcript of a recent feature on ThreatTraq.  The video features Jaime Blasco, VP and Chief Scientist, AlienVault, Stan Nurilov, Lead Member of Technical Staff, AT&T,  and Joe Harten, Director Technical Security. Stan: Jaime. I think you have a very interesting topic today about threat intelligence.  Jaime: Yes, we want to talk about how threat intelligence is critical for threat detection and incident response, but then when this threat intelligence and the threat actors try to match those indicators and that information that is being shared, it can actually be bad for companies. So we are going to share some of the experiences we have had with managing the Open Threat Exchange (OTX) - one of the biggest threat sharing communities out there. Stan: Jaime mentioned that they have so many threat indicators and so much threat intelligence as part of OTX, the platform.  Jaime: We know attackers monitor these platforms and are adjusting tactics and techniques and probably the infrastructure based on public reaction to cyber security companies sharing their activities in blog posts and other reporting. An example is in September 2017, we saw APT28, and it became harder to track because we were using some of the infrastructure and some of the techniques that were publicly known. And another cyber security company published content about that and then APT28 became much more difficult to track. The other example is APT1. If you remember the APT1 report in 2013 that Mandiant published, that made the group basically disappear from the face of earth, right? We didn't see them for a while and then they changed the infrastructure and they changed a lot of the tools that they were using, and then they came back in 2014. So we can see that that threat actor disappeared for a while, changed and rebuilt, and then they came back. We also know that attackers can try to publish false information in this platform, so that's why it's important that not only those platforms are automated, but also there are human analysts that can verify that information.  Joe: It seems like you have to have a process of validating the intelligence, right? I think part of it is you don't want to take this intelligence at face value without having some expertise of your own that asks, is this valid? Is this a false positive? Is this planted by the adversary in order to throw off the scent? I think it's one of those things where you can't automatically trust - threat intelligence. You have to do some of your own diligence to validate the intelligence, make sure it makes sense, make sure it's still fresh, it's still good. This is something we're working on internally - creating those other layers to validate and create better value of our threat intelligence. Jaime: The other issue I wanted to bring to the table is what we call false flag operations - that's when an adversary or a threat actor studies another threat actor and tries to emulate their behavior.
