Building Castles in the Sky: Advanced Persistent Responses

Tom Kellerman, US Vice President of Cybersecurity, Trend Micro
Cyberspace is not a pacific environment; there is a fight for power in a modern-day colonial movement. As the cyber kill chain has evolved so too must our defenses. The digital insider threat aka the APT (advanced persistent threat) will metastasize in the cloud computing environment of 2012. The use of mobile devices and cloud computing creates a perfect storm for the exfiltration of sensitive data. To tap into the power of Web-based, wireless, and other emerging technologies, and thus build stouter virtual castles in the sky, we must appreciate the evolution of blended threats from the simple virus of yesteryear to the virulent MALFI (multifaceted malware with remote file inclusion, local file inclusion, cross-server attack, and remote code execution) botnet attacks of 2012.

Rather than endorsing security models that drive us to construct additional defenses and filters that have an increasingly slim chance of stopping advanced threats, the focus within IT development and security must shift to emphasize more aggressive, proactive self-assessment through which “offense can inform defense.” To achieve an advanced persistent response (APR) on our networks, we must blend our cyber defenses so as to realize deep security.

This presentation will focus on the evolution of the staged and blended attacks and share expertise on organizational strategies and tactics to mitigate risks in the short term and over time.

Tom Kellermann, a member of the Commission on Cybersecurity for the 44th President, is a trusted cybersecurity advisor and strategist within the federal, state and local government markets. As a security evangelist and government affairs expert, he manages strategic partnerships both domestically and internationally to help increase Trend Micro's profile in emerging technologies and policy issues.
Tom is a professor at American University's School of International Service and a Certified Information Security Manager (CISM).

  • When a business rolls out IT systems to run its operations, the basic foundation on which the system is built is the network that carries the traffic. To be able to solve problems in such a complex environment, it's vitally important to know what is happening on the network. Whether it's the behavior of the applications, behavior of the users or rogue elements that interfere with application delivery, knowing what is going on is half the battle of solving the problem.

    This short video will discuss why having a well-designed workflow for identifying suspect traffic patterns and finding even the smallest volume of interesting data can make the difference in finding the culprit of pesky performance problems.

  • Did you know that natural disasters, such as hurricane or flood only account for approximately 2% of all business disasters while hardware failures and human error account for more than 70%?

    Let’s face it: as an IT professional, anything that interrupts normal business operations could form the basis of disaster for you. Just remember: whatever the cause of your interruption, how you prepare to respond that will decide the fate of your business.

    So, are you prepared?

    In this session, Senior Sales Engineer Chris Brightwell from Kaseya will discuss what a state of the art backup and disaster recovery solution looks like, how you should plan ahead to prevent or mitigate the risks of a disaster and explains the difference between good and bad backup and disaster recovery strategies based on real-life examples.
