The Blueprint to Secure API Design Through Effective Threat Modeling

Do you have all the parts of zero trust in place to control risk to your crown jewels? 

If you don't know where to start, you probably need to assess your situation.

Using a zero trust readiness assessment you can see what parts of the people, process, and technology triad you already have in place and what you don't. With a readiness assessment you can figure out what to focus on first in order to tackle the remaining parts of the zero trust jigsaw.

Zero trust is a model or philosophy of how users and devices access applications and data. Zero trust is not a SKU or a single product, rather it is a more secure way to provide access to data by checking the identity of the user, or application, on a continual basis before allowing the user or application to access sensitive or confidential data, limiting access by network segmentation and dynamic access mechanisms. 

Remember, the goal is to protect the data and make sure that it remains confidential, maintains integrity and availability.

CBTS used the NIST Special Publication 800-207 as the foundation for an assessment to help customers know where they stand with their zero trust journey. The assessment is standards based and does not reference or promote vendor solutions, rather the people, processes, and technologies in place are assessed against 800-207. In this presentation we will review the general components of a zero trust readiness assessment so that you know where you are and how to complete your journey.

How Do You Know Where to Start Your Zero Trust Journey?

Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) incorporates many aspects of effective cyber security…but not all of them.  There are many elements of information security that are implied in ZTA but are not explicitly stated.  These include role-based access control (RBAC), identity management, key management and threat intelligence.  Together, constitute the zero trust environment, which must be in place for the architecture to be implemented.  ZTA plus these environmental elements are the basis for secure use of information resources, today and as a foundation for future growth.  This session presents each of these elements as products to be evaluated, acquired and implemented in order to achieve full zero trust.

Learning objectives:
- The various security methods that support ZTA but are not included in it. 
- The value proposition for a fully supported zero trust environment.
- The vendor landscape of these supportive methods.
- Determining the need for supplemental products and tools.

What's NOT Included in Zero Trust Architecture

APIs have become essential in today's digital ecosystem, enabling seamless data exchange, connecting applications, and driving innovation. However, as they contain valuable data, APIs can also serve as enticing targets for cyber attacks such as DDoS attacks, SQL injections, and cross-site scripting (XSS). A single API breach can jeopardize sensitive information and affect an organization's reputation, financial stability, and compliance. Therefore, it's crucial to have a robust API security program in place. 

In this webinar, we will explore the multifaceted landscape of API security and emphasize its pivotal role in modern enterprises' overall cybersecurity posture. We will delve into the foundational components of API security, explain how each relates to the evolving threat landscape, and discuss practical, actionable ways they can prevent cyber criminals from exploiting vulnerabilities in APIs. We will also provide insight into the capabilities of a mature, end-to-end API security program and define practical milestones to empower you to elevate your API security to the next level.

Key takeaways from this webinar include understanding how attackers' tools, techniques, and procedures are evolving, learning the components of API security and their respective roles, and taking actionable steps to assess and enhance your organization's API security posture. In addition, we will highlight forward-thinking strategies and how web application firewalls (WAFs) can help detect and block malicious traffic, and how API security solutions can provide comprehensive protection for your APIs and work with WAFs to ultimately protect applications and their data.

Elevating API Security

In the ever-evolving landscape of DevSecOps, the paradigm is shifting towards a proactive approach known as Zero Trust, redefining how security is integrated into the CICD pipeline. This transformation doesn't simply entail developers assuming more security responsibilities but rather involves a holistic restructuring, where security teams engage in early-stage development.

Our presentation delves into the evolution from traditional DevSecOps to the advanced realm of Zero Trust. We explore the principles of "Simple DevSecOps" and "Trust but verify," leading up to the pinnacle of security sophistication: "Zero Trust." In a zero trust environment, every element of the DevOps pipeline undergoes rigorous authentication and authorization, ensuring heightened security at every step.

In this session, join Jyotirmayee Pradeep Kumar (Vice President of Cloud DevOps at a well-known global bank) as she unravels the concepts of "Security as Code" and "Policy as Code" as instrumental tools in implementing zero trust. 

Topics for discussion include:
- The foundational principles of DevOps and its evolving landscape.
- The pivotal role of security within the DevOps framework.
- The benefits and challenges of zero trust in DevOps environments.
- Practical strategies for implementing zero trust in the CICD pipeline.
- Diverse approaches to integrating zero trust seamlessly into your DevOps practices.

Elevating DevSecOps Security: The Journey to Zero Trust

The rapid adoption of cloud technology by organizations has led to a shift towards both single and multi-cloud environments. Unfortunately, this shift has also resulted in cloud misconfigurations, which are one of the top risks associated in the cloud. Cloud misconfiguration refers to any errors or gaps in the security measures of a cloud environment. 

We will begin by discussing the root causes of cloud misconfigurations. We will then review case studies of organizations that have suffered data breaches due to cloud misconfigurations, such as Capital One in 2019, eBay in 2014, and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) in 2017. Finally, we will then walk through built-in tools provided by AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, that cyber professionals can leverage to mitigate security risks in the cloud. These tools are also known as Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) tools.

Cloud Security Posture Management tools are automated solutions designed to identify misconfiguration issues and compliance risks in the cloud so that they can be remediated, reducing the risk of successful breaches. We will explore AWS Security Hub, Microsoft Defender for Cloud, and Google Security Command Center, and review how each tool can be used to gain visibility into the current security posture of each respective cloud.  Furthermore, we will emphasize how these tools can be applied to determine alignment with relevant regulatory compliance standards and industry-standard benchmarks, as well as identify threats and potential security weaknesses. 

The key takeaways from this session are:
- Most cloud breaches are due to misconfigurations or human errors.
- Do not rely on your cloud service provider to secure your data (understand the shared responsibility model).
- You cannot protect what you do not have visibility into (CSPM solutions can help).
- Cloud security should begin with implementation of cloud governance.

Using Cloud Security Posture Management Solutions to Mitigate Misconfigurations

Evaluating Options for Cyber Insurance

In an era where "cloud-first’ is often mistaken for “cloud-only,”' let’s explore a few often-neglected aspects of ransomware incident preparedness, highlighting the ironic shift in readiness from things we used to do well (or at least often) in the pre-cloud era, but that have been left behind in the present day. This presentation will focus specifically on three critically underappreciated practices that are still useful, and increasingly pivotal, for effective response to ransomware attacks.

1.) The significance of "go-to-paper" processes, you know, good old-fashioned manual business continuity (BC) procedures we used to follow when our digital world went dark. We'll explore how these archaic yet surprisingly resilient manual tactics are more than just a trip down memory lane, but necessary steps in ensuring your business keeps running even when screens don’t.

2.) Infrastructure backups. We're not just talking about your important data, but the increasingly software-defined and abstracted infrastructure components you rely on. This discussion will strip away the veil of complacency that often shrouds cloud-based systems, revealing the stark realities of shared responsibilities and the need for a more holistic approach to disaster recovery.

3.) The practicality of meeting recovery point objectives (RPO) and recovery time objectives (RTO) when relying on offline or internet-based backups. This involves an in-depth analysis of current practices; measuring their actual effectiveness and whether regaining access to data and systems is possible within acceptable time and data loss thresholds.

By revisiting these "old" strategies, we propose a renewed, hybrid approach to ransomware preparedness, blending traditional wisdom with modern technological capabilities. This presentation aims to equip organizations with a more holistic and resilient strategy in the face of evolving cyber threats.

Old School Lessons for Handling Ransomware in the Digital Age

While ransomware prevention is always the goal, what happens when it occurs anyways?  Backups or disaster recovery solutions are not enough. Companies need an actual plan on what to do, key steps to take as well as additional options for when primary solutions do not work as expected or simply fail.  

Key takeaways:
- Initial assessment.
- Team communication.
- What to expect if you do or don’t pay the ransom.
- Bringing in third party help.
- Recovery process

Viewers will also learn pivotal prevention steps such as:
- Recovery points / Clusters.
- Infrastructure safe guards.

Preventing Ransomware Attacks in the Cloud

Zero trust is a strategy that defines how to architect your computer network and systems to protect and defend your data from attacks. It operates by assuming that computers, user accounts, software, and applications can be compromised at any time and implements continuous assessment of device posture, user credentials, and application integrity before granting access. 

Zero trust is not a SKU or a single product, rather it is a more secure way to provide access to data by implementing security controls on the end point, on the network, and in the cloud to ensure only authorized users and applications can access your data. 

Remember, the goal is to protect the data and make sure that it remains confidential, maintains integrity, and is available when needed.  

Tune into this this talk from industry thought leader John Bruggeman as he reviews zero trust at a high level and discuss what solutions you can implement to take advantage of this ransomware resistant strategy. 

Key takeaways regarding solutions for 
- End point protection. 
- End user authentication.
- Network access controls.
- Cloud posture management.
