Direct Link: http://traffic.libsyn.com/brakeingsecurity/2017-036-Adam_Shostack-threat_modeling.mp3 Adam Shostack has been a fixture of threat modeling for nearly 2 decades. He wrote the 'threat modeling' bible that many people consult when they need to do threat modeling properly. We discuss the different threat modeling types (STRIDE, DREAD, Trike, PASTA) and which ones Adam enjoys using. Mr. Boettcher asks how to handle when people believe an OS is better than another, how to do threat modeling to decide which OS should be the one to use. Stay after for a special post-show discussion with Adam about his friend Stephen Toulouse (@stepto).

What is it, why do people do it, why do organizations do it? What happens when it's not done effectively, or at all? At what point in the SDLC should threat modeling be employed? Planning? Development? Can threat models be modified when new features/functionality gets added? Otherwise, are these just to 'check a compliance box'?

After last year's SOURCE Conference, I knew I needed to go again, not just because it was a local (Seattle) infosec conference, but because of the caliber of speakers and the range of topics that were going to be covered. I got audio from two of the speakers at the SOURCE conference (@sourceconf) on Twitter Lee Fisher and Paul English from PreOS Security about UEFI security and methods to secure your devices https://preossec.com/ Joe Basirico discusses the proper environment to get the best out of your bug bounty program. points from his abstract: Bug Bounty Programs - Why you want to invite security researchers to hack your products Marketing your Security Program - How and why to market your security program. What to say, how to say it, and where to say it for maximum effectiveness. How to Communicate with Security Researchers - What are security researchers expecting in communication, responsiveness, transparency, and time to fix.

Direct Link: http://traffic.libsyn.com/brakeingsecurity/2017-035-business_continuity-After_the_disaster.mp3 We are back this week after a bit of time off, and we getting right back into it... What happens after you enact your business continuity plan? Many times, it can cause you to have to change processes, procedures... you may not even be doing business in the same country or datacenter, and you may be needing to change the way business is done. We also talk a bit about 3rd party vendor reviews, and what would happen if your 3rd party doesn't have a proper plan in place. Finally, we discuss the upcoming #reverseEngineering course starting on 30 October 2017 with Tyler Hudak, as well some upcoming appearances for Ms. Berlin at SecureWV, GrrCon, and Bsides Wellington, #newZealand RSS: http://www.brakeingsecurity.com/rss Youtube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/BDSPodcast #iTunes Store Link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/brakeing-down-security-podcast/id799131292?mt=2 #Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/music/m/Ifp5boyverbo4yywxnbydtzljcy?t=Brakeing_Down_Security_podcast Join our #Slack Channel!

Panic Step 2. Panic more, or let your management panic Step 3. Follow the plan… you do have a plan, right? Enacting a BC/DR plan RPO/RTO - https://www.druva.com/blog/understanding-rpo-and-rto/ Recovery Point Objective (RPO) describes the interval of time that might pass during a disruption before the quantity of data lost during that period exceeds the Business Continuity Plan's maximum allowable threshold or "tolerance." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recovery_point_objective Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is the duration of time and a service level within which a business process must be restored after a disaster in order to avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a break in continuity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recovery_time_objective https://uptime.is/99.99 Excerpt from "Defensive Security Handbook" - Buy from Amazon (sponsored link): http://amzn.to/2zcmWBY Recovery Point Objective The recovery point objective (RPO) is the point in time that you wish to recover to. That is, determining if you need to be able to recover data right up until seconds before the disaster strikes, or whether the night before is acceptable, or the week before, for example. This does not take into account of how long it takes to make this recovery, only the point in time from which you will be resuming once recovery has been made. There is a tendency to jump straight to seconds before the incident; however, the shorter the RPO, the more the costs and complexity will invariably move upwards. Recovery Time Objective The recovery time objective (RTO) is how long it takes to recover, taken irrespective of the RPO. That is, after the disaster, how long until you have recovered to the point determined by the RPO. To illustrate with an example, if you operate a server that hosts your brochureware website, the primary goal is probably going to be rapidly returning the server to operational use. If the content is a day old it is probably not as much of a problem as if the system held financial transactions whereby the availability of recent transactions is important. In this case an outage of an hour may be tolerable, with data no older than one day once recovered. In this case the RPO would be one day, and the RTO would be one hour. There is often a temptation for someone from a technology department to set these times; however, it should be driven by the business owners of systems. This is for multiple reasons: It is often hard to justify the cost of DR solutions. Allowing the business to set requirements, and potentially reset requirements if costs are too high, not only enables informed decisions regarding targets, but also reduces the chances of unrealistic expectations on recovery times. IT people may understand the technologies involved, but do not always have the correct perspective to make a determination as to what the business' priorities are in such a situation. The involvement of the business in the DR and BCP plans eases the process of discussing budget and expectations for these solutions. RPO should be determined when working through a Business impact analysis (BIA) https://www.ready.gov/business-impact-analysis https://www.fema.gov/media-library/assets/documents/89526 There is always a gap between the actuals (RTA/RPA) and objectives After an incident or disaster, a 'Lessons Learned' should identify shortcomings and adjust accordingly. This may also affect contracts, or customers may require re-negotiation of their RTO/RPO requirements If something happens 4 hours after a backup, and you have an hour until the next backup, you have to reconcile the lost information, or take it as a loss Loss = profits lost, fines for SLAs You may not be doing the same after the disaster.

*Apologies for the continuity this was recorded before we went to Derbycon 2017.* Preston Pierce is a recruiter. We wanted to have him on to discuss some issues with our industry. So we had him on to discuss hiring practices, how a recruiter can help a company recruiter better talent, and how to stop companies looking for the 'unicorn' candidate. Preston is a great guy and we learned a lot about how the recruiting process works, and how Preston's company work differently from other, less reputable companies. We also discuss job descriptions, getting management buy in for a good candidate, and more.

How? Secure coding? Hardening boxes/Systems? If it's just dev -> prod, where does security have the chance to find issues (i.e. test and QA belong there)? We used to have the ability for a lot of security injection points, but no longer Lowers the number of people we have to harangue to be secure…? Security success = baked in to DevOps Shift from a 'top down' to 'bottom up' Eliminate FPs, and forward on real issues to devs Concentrate on one or two types of vulnerabilities Triage vulns from most important to least important Go for 'quick wins', or things that don't take a lot of time for devs to fix. Grepping for 'system(), or execve()' Primitives (hashing, encryption, file system operations) How do you stop a build going to production if it's going out like that? Do we allow insecurity to go to Production? Or would it be too late to 'stop the presses'? "We'll fix it in post…" Instead of the 'guardrail not speedbump' you are the driving instructor... But where does security get in to be able to talk to devs about data flow, documentation of processes? 5 Y's - Why are you doing that? Setup things like alerting on git repos, especially for sensitive code Changing a sensitive bit of code or file may notify people Will make people think before making changes Put controls in terms of how they enable velocity You like you some bug bounties, why? Continuous feedback Learn to find/detect attackers as early in the attack chain Refine your vuln triage/response Use bug reports as IR/DFIR... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORtYTDSmi4U https://www.slideshare.net/zanelackey/how-to-adapt-the-sdlc-to-the-era-of-devsecops http://www.slideshare.net/zanelackey/building-a-modern-security-engineering-organization In SAST, a modern way to decide what to test is start with a small critical vuln, like OS command injection. Find those and get people to fix it. BUT don't developers or project teams get unhappy [sic] if you keep "moving the goal post" as you add in the next SAST test and the next SAST test. How do you do that and not piss people off? [15:16] How do you make development teams self sufficient when it comes to writing a secure application? Security is a road block during a 3 month release schedule….getting "security approval" in a 3 day release cycle is impossible. [15:17] But then…what is the job for the security team? If DevOps with security is done right, do you still need a security team, if so what do they do???? Do they write more code??? I don't think your Dev'ops'ing security out of a job...but where does security see itself in 5 years? Last one if there is time and interest. If Zane Lackey was a _maintainer_ of an open source project, what dev ops sec lessons would he apply to that dev model…to the OpenSource model? (We've got internal projects managed with the open source model...so im interested in this one) Even with out any of those questions the topics he covered in his black hat talk are FULL of content to talk about. Heck, even bug bounties are a topic of conversation. The idea of a feedback loop to dev...where an application under attack in a pen test can do fixes live....how that is possible is loads of content.

Everyone should be doing incident response tabletops, even if it's not a dedicated task in your organization. It allows you to find out what you might be lacking in terms of processes, manpower, requirements, etc. This week, we discuss what you need to do to get ready for one, and how those should go in terms of helping your organization understand how to handle the aftermath. And in case you've been under a rock, #equifax was breached. 143 million credit records are in the ether. We discuss the facts as of 9 September 2017, and what this means to the average user.

What is in your environment Struts aren't a threat, or are they? Equifax didn't think so at the time… Insider threat External entities Libraries plugins/themes used (Wordpress) Risk analysis Qualitative Quantitative What makes a good incident response exercise ( Following the creation and implementation of security controls around use cases, can be the testing of tabletop exercises and drills as a proof of concept. A tabletop exercise is a meeting of key stakeholders and staff that walk step by step through the mitigation of some type of disaster, malfunction, attack, or other emergency in a low stress situation. A drill is when staff carries out as many of the processes, procedures, and mitigations that would be performed during one of the emergencies as possible.While drills are limited in scope, they can be very useful to test specific controls for gaps and possible improvements. A disaster recovery plan can be carried out to some length, backups can be tested with the restoration of files, and services can be failed over to secondary cluster members.Tabletop exercises are composed of several key groups or members. During a tabletop exercise there should be a moderator or facilitator that will deliver the scenario to be played out. This moderator can answer "what if " questions about the imaginary emergency as well as lead discussion, pull in additional resources, and control the pace of the exercise. Inform the participants that it is perfectly acceptable to not have answers to questions during this exercise. The entire purpose of tabletops is to find the weaknesses in current processes to mitigate them prior to an actual incident.• A member of the exercise should also evaluate the overall performance of the exercise as well as create an after-action report. This evaluator should take meticulous notes as well as follow along any runbook to ensure accuracy. While the evaluator will be the main notetaker, other groups and individuals may have specific knowledge and understanding of situations. In this case having each member provide the evaluator with their own notes at the conclusion of the tabletop is a good step.• Participants make up the majority of this exercise. Included should be groups such as Finance, HR, Legal, Security (both physical and information), Management, Marketing, and any other key group that may be required. Participants should be willing to engage in the conversation, challenge themselves and others politely, and work within the parameters of the exercise. What to include in the tabletop:• A handout to participants with the scenario and room for notes.• Current runbook of how security situations are handled.• Any policy and procedure manuals.• List of tools and external services. Post-exercise actions and questions:• What went well?• What could have gone better?• Are any services or processes missing that would have improved resolution time or accuracy?• Are any steps unneeded or irrelevant?• Identify and document issues for corrective action.• Change the plan appropriately for next time. Tabletop TemplateThe Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has a collection of different scenarios, presentations, and tabletops that can be used as templates.

Seems like many companies fail to give out necessary and actionable information without paying an arm and a leg. We also go over our DerbyCon CTF walkthrough, and discuss the steps to solve it.
