  3. Today’s Reality Future Threats & Challenges About Sourcefire About True North Security Agenda

  4. Today’s Reality

  5. Over 285 million records stolen in 2008 vs. 230 million between the years 2004 – 2007 with Education being the highest. WHY? Who do you think will be #1 in the next two years? 31% more bot-infected computers per day in 2008 vs 2007 90% of breaches from organized crime targeting corporate information Cyber crime cost companies more than $650 million worldwide Majority of breaches caused by insider negligence Users blurring their social life, personal life and work life with regards to Internet Usage Security Highlights • www.idtheftcenter.org

  6. Recent Scams • Haiti Relief email • IRS Form W2 Spoof contains malware • Mortgage Fraud • Pop up Anti-Virus Advertisement contains virus • H1N1 email alert contains malware • FDIC email stating bank merger or that your bank is a failed bank. Click here? Get a surprise • 2010 Census by email • SURPRISE the Census bureau does not use email

  7. Motivation Auto Coordinated Cross site scripting Attack Sophistication “stealth” / advanced scanning techniques High Staged packet spoofing denial of service distributed attack tools sniffers sweepers www attacks automated probes/scans GUI back doors network mgmt. diagnostics disabling audits hijacking sessions burglaries Attack Sophistication exploiting known vulnerabilities password cracking self-replicating code Intruder Knowledge password guessing Low 2000+ 1980 1985 1990 1995 Source: Carnegie Mellon University

  8. What’s Causing Rise In Cyber Crime • Recession • Social Media Sites • Younger/Older generation using computers • Availability of Sophisticated tools • Trickery & Foolery

  9. “Zero Hour” Threats Rising • Increase in specialized threats • Toolkits used to create virus attacks, making specialization of participants a lucrative shadow economy. • Sophistication of high end threats is evolving rapidly • Targeted threats attack specific companies, persons and systems. • Blended threats becoming more common • Carefully targeted attack may go unnoticed for an undetermined amount of time.

  10. Harnessing The Power of Botnets Source: Symantec

  11. Industrial Espionage Targeted Attacks 60% of recipients were of a high or medium-level ranking 42% of recipients of targeted attacks were sent to high ranking individuals 18% of recipients were of medium-level seniority 5% of recipients were of a lower-ranking security 19% of targeted attacks were directed at general mailboxes such as “info@” Individually Targeted Attacks Blocked Per Day (Average) Source: Symantec Source: MessageLabs Intelligence

  12. Targeted Trojans Targeted trojans are specialized pieces of malware written to extract high value information from known subjects. Source: http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/ hackers_targeting_UquyMBhuVAyl6wAn413lGJ

  13. 2005 2006 2007 2009 2008 50 2 1 10 60 PER DAY AVG PER DAY AVG PER WEEK PER DAY AVG PER DAY AVG Targeted Trojans Recent Peaks Frequency: 357 PER DAY Payload: Source: Symantec Source: MessageLabs Intelligence

  14. Website Security Trends Unique domains hosting malware: 30,000 New sites with malware in 2009: 2,465/day Source: Symantec Source: MessageLabs Intelligence

  15. Web 2.0

  16. Multitude of Threat Vectors • Social Media • Facebook, MySpace, Linkedin • Rogue 3rd Party Apps • Tiny URL’s • Translations • RogueWare

  17. Financial Heartland Retail Hannaford's Education Harvard University Oklahoma State University Medical Department of Veterans Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Government North Korea Attacks American Networks China hacking into NASA Israel Attacking Iran No Industry Is Being Left Behind The cyber warfare HAS begun!

  18. Space Programs RUSSIA USA

  19. Easy Availability of Exploit Tools

  20. PCI (Payment Card Industry) GLBA (Gramm-Leach Bliley Act) HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) FISMA (Federal Information Security Management Act) HITECH MA 201 CMR 17 NERC Multitude of Regulations

  21. Communications between machines inside the corporate LAN and between choke-points are not filtered or protected by a perimeter firewall in front of each machine. Servers in the DMZ, Kiosks, workstations used by temporary employees, and other “hot spots” Mobile users are becoming the back door to the house Telecommuters are becoming more popular, more risks being brought inside Perimeter Protection Is Not Enough

  22. Historical Firewall Configuration To: 115.13.73.1 From: 66.121.11.7 FTP-21 HTTP-80 Sub 7-6776 Quake-26000 SMTP-25

  23. HTTP-80 Today’s Firewall Configurations FTP-21 BackOrifice-31337 SMTP-25

  24. Future Threats & Challenges The Complacency of Fools Will Destroy Us

  25. Next Inflection Point CLOUD COMPUTING IT resources and services that are abstracted from the underlying infrastructure and provided “On-Demand” and “At Scale” in a multi-tenant environment

  26. Clouds Blow Away • Where does your data go when the cloud blows away • When data is breached, who will be at fault? • Waiting for first court battle • Looks like, feels like SNA? • Make sure you have a solid SLA!

  27. Next Generation Threats Next Generation Threats Will Use Stealth Methods vs. Today’s Threats • User Error will be the way of malware • Information Leakage due to negligence and theft • Domestic and International Terrorist stealing company technology and secrets New Methods Will Evolve to Adapt to User Behavior • Tempt-to-Click Email • Tempt-to-Click IM • False pop-ups New Computing Environments and Applications will be targets • VoIP • Cloud Computing • SaaS (Software as a Service) • Social Media Protection Will Require Education And Technology

  28. How Do We Best Protect Ourselves and Our Data Protect Dysfunctional Users Against Themselves

  29. What Companies Are Thinking About Securing Virtualization Virtualizing Security

  30. SANS Recommends - Deploy IPS
