Top Security Threats and Trends: 2011 Cyber Risk Report

Your VP just resigned and took a position at your biggest competitor. Did you remember to examine the Salesforce logs to see if he downloaded your entire customer database and history of purchases? Do you even have access to those logs? And if you did, and found the obvious, how would it help now? Catching Bradley Manning who stole sensitive government information, Ross Klein who took with him an entire hotel brand concept and Gary Min that copied chemical formulas was too late for the US government, DuPont and Starwood hotels respectively.

In this presentation we look into how to proactively monitor user activity to detect potential threats from employees before the damage occurs. Focusing on how to effectively collect activity logs and analyze them against user, role and entitlement information, to detect abnormal activity, predict which employees may pose more threat if not loyal and to reduce the associated risk.

More and more security operations centers are transforming their operations from being reactive, to proactive and even predictive. Hear how big data technologies like Autonomy IDOL can be leveraged with traditional security monitoring tools for Social Network Monitoring and Data Loss Prevention (data in motion) to drive value and empower a “next generation SOC.”

Mobile devices are a hot trend amongst security topics this year. While most cover the angle of the device management, only few go into testing the applications. Since the mobile application vulnerability landscape is still young, there is a need to classify these vulnerabilities so that development teams can focus and root them out of their codebases. Join us as we explore the OWASP Mobile Top 10 classification system and metrics from a large case study of a real enterprise facing the deployment and assessment of a large number of mobile applications. Developers, Managers, and team leads will leave with resources and guidelines to start mobile security both at the process level and code level, including how to handle external mobile development teams they might contract. Get ahead of upcoming PCI compliance by addressing your mobile software early!

Compliance and security are better together and there are tools and resources that can be combined to achieve both. Learn the top 10 tips - such as continuous monitoring, assessing the controls, and cost-effective audit logs - to understand and implement best practices of compliance and security together.

Network security is not just about eliminating bad traffic, it is also about making sure applications and critical data are always available to the right audience at the right time. The right network security architecture can provide security for physical assets, but also extend protection for virtual and cloud computing infrastructures without impacting performance. In fact, unlike in the past, a network security product should never be considered a bottleneck due to deep packet inspection, but should actually be capable of improving bandwidth and performance.

Don’t miss the results presentation of the 3rd Annual Cost of Cyber Crime Study, conducted by Ponemon Institute, sponsored by HP Enterprise Security. This research indicates that both the cost and frequency of cyber crime have continued to rise for the third straight year. According to this study of a benchmark sample of U.S. organizations, the occurrence of cyber attacks has more than doubled during this period, while the financial impact has increased by nearly 40 percent. This year’s study found that the average annualized cost of cybercrime incurred was $8.9 million. This represents a six percent increase over the average cost reported in 2011, and a 38 percent increase over 2010.

This webinar will focus on the UK and Germany results.
Attend this webinar and learn about how:

• Information theft and business disruption continue to represent the highest external costs.

• Recovery and detection remain the most costly internal activities associated with cyber crime.

• Deploying advanced security intelligence solutions can mitigate the impact of cyber attacks.

Social networking for most of us is becoming wrapped into our DNA. This is especially important for the next generation workforce. Additionally, the employees today and those of tomorrow will expect the capability to blog and social network with corporate assets and corporate bandwidth. Additionally, these technologies are being widely used for corporate marketing and communication. That is why it's important to look at all aspects of securing your infrastructure and more importantly, the people that drive your organization today. This involves educating people, corporate process and the right security technologies. The following session will cover the benefits and the security risks inherit with social networking across all business verticals. Additionally, the author will provide a use case analysis of information that is gathered via web beacons that harvest information unknowing to the user.

The amount of digital data is exploding exponentially. It is being generated, transmitted and exchanged much faster, by more sources and in different formats than ever before. At the same time, the number of attempts to infiltrate organizations to steal and profit from the unauthorized use of critical data is skyrocketing. Not only are financially motivated criminals conducting more attacks on organizations, there has also been a dramatic increase in the number of data theft attempts by nation states and politically motivated hacking groups. We will discuss new technological innovation that enables HP ArcSight SIEM solutions to maintain the security of organizational IT assets by detecting more incidents and addressing larger sets of log data.

Vulnerabilities that exist in today’s commercial and custom software are the primary target for attackers. The most severe of these vulnerabilities are those that can result in remote code execution – that is an attacker can take complete control of another system for the purposes of stealing information, defacing property or just causing trouble. In this session, Brian Gorenc, will demonstrate how to analyze a vulnerability and the steps required to weaponize it. Centering on a vulnerability in a Microsoft application, the demo will show you how an attacker can quickly move from proof-of-concept to remote code execution. The discussion will also include thoughts on mitigation strategies for reducing risk.
