CIS Control 16 - Application Software Security
The way in which we interact with applications has changed dramatically over years. Organizations use applications in day-to-day operations to manage their most sensitive data and control access to system resources. Instead of traversing a labyrinth of networks and systems, attackers today see an opening to turn an organizations applications against it to bypass network security controls and compromise sensitive data. NOTE: Crowdstrike notes that Cloud based attacks and initial access via these systems has increased 112%, therefore SaaS applications, their potential vulnerabilities and misconfigurations along with initial access are all being focused on by threat actors.

Penetration testing is something that more companies and organizations should be considering a necessary expense. Pen Testing is an important aspect of discovery and identifying potential critical vulnerabilities within your organizations external network, internal network, applications, or systems. They provide a valuable insight on how your digital and human assets perform. In this episode we review the criticality of scoping a Pen Test, along with differences between Pen Testing, Red Teaming and Vulnerability Assessment. Why should you choose one over the other and when would one proceed the other. Sponsored by : Hacket Cyber and post game interview with Founder James Carroll.

CIS Control 17 - Incident Response Management - Sponsored by Exigence 53:38

for 2 years siden53:38

53:38

The biggest takeaway from CIS Control 17 is that planning and communication are critical when responding to an incident . The longer an intruder has access to your network, the more time they’ve had to embed themselves into your systems. Communicating with everyone involved can help limit the duration between attack and clean-up. Establish a program to develop and maintain an incident response capability (e.g., policies, plans, procedures, defined roles, training, and communications) to prepare, detect, and quickly respond to an attack. Our sponsor : Exigence ( https://www.exigence.io ) is a multi-tenant, Incident Readiness, Incident Response platform, built for MSP/MSSPs. Drive new revenue streams and meet cyber insurance & regulatory requirements for Incident Response plans and tabletops. The Exigence platform gives you full control of critical incidents by uniquely addressing every aspect of the incident – turning an unstructured situation into one that is structured and easy to manage. It coordinates all stakeholders and systems all the time, orchestrates complex workflows from trigger to resolution, simplifies the post-mortem, and always leverages lessons learned for doing it even better next time.

CIS Control 15 - Service Provider Management 1:02:48

for 2 years siden1:02:48

1:02:48

LastPass and the recent Rackspace Exchange incident are two prime examples of "why" this Control is Critical!! Develop a process to evaluate service providers who hold sensitive data, or are responsible for critical IT platforms or processes, to ensure these providers are protecting those platforms and data appropriately. Identify your business needs and create a set of standards that can be used to grade services providers that are being proposed. Organize and monitor all services providers that are associated with your business. Keeping an inventory of all services providers will enable you to monitor them in case they update their policies.

1:17:30

MSP/MSSPs should offer solutions to provide users with frequent security awareness training to increase its overall security posture. The information provided by the security awareness training should be relevant and provide insights into recent security incidents. Training should also reiterate the necessity of using strong passwords, spotting and reporting phishing attacks, as well as properly handling personal information. Security awareness training should include frequent phishing tests. Phishing tests allow users to learn from their mistakes and utilize their training to spot actual phishing attacks. These phishing tests should be specially crafted for different departments within an enterprise. Specially crafted phishing tests are harder to detect and demonstrate the value of security awareness training. 👏 Special thanks to Phin Security for their sponsorship and interview .

CIS Control 12 - Network Infrastructure Management - sponsored by Domotz! 57:28

for 3 years siden57:28

57:28

Abstract : Network Infrastructure Management - Establish, implement, and actively manage network devices, in order to prevent attackers from exploiting vulnerable network services and access points. Network infrastructure devices can be physical or virtual and include things such as routers, switches, firewalls, and wireless access points. Unfortunately, many devices are shipped from manufacturers with “default” configuration settings and passwords that, if deployed as-is, can significantly weaken an organization’s network infrastructure. Even if network devices are hardened with non-default configurations and strong passwords, over time these devices will be targeted by new vulnerabilities that are discovered by security researchers. MSPs should ensure that their teams implementing and operating the network infrastructure have processes and procedures in place that include capabilities for having a secure network infrastructure. 👏 Special thanks for Domotz sponsorship and interview . ONLY $21 per Network!! Incredible for MSP COGS!! Key areas Domotz helps MSPs : Control 1 | Continuous Discovery of new devices | checking for default passwords | Alerting on changes (ports, protocols, configurations) | being able to revert back (backup) | logging and auditing of changes and much more!! 🙌 JB Fowler : https://www.linkedin.com/in/jb-fowler-1302023/ & Giancarlo Fanelli https://www.linkedin.com/in/giancarlofanelli/ 👉 Domotz's Security Standards : https://www.domotz.com/knowledge-base/Domotz-Security-Standards-2021-March.pdf Domotz MSP : https://www.domotz.com/msp.php Co-hosts : Ryan Weeks : https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanweeks/ Phyllis Lee : https://www.linkedin.com/in/phyllis-lee-21b58a1a4/ Wes Spencer : https://www.linkedin.com/in/wesspencer/…

1:04:20

Abstract : Data loss can be a consequence of a variety of factors from malicious ransomware, threat actors using "Double Extortion" and exfiltration, human error and natural disasters like hurricanes. Regardless of the reason for data loss, we need to have a process established (RPO/RTO) to recover our data. Key Takeaways for Control 11 Prioritize your data and come up with a data recovery plan. Protect your backed up data. (See Control 3: Data Protection.) Practice and Test restoring your data. Restore your data after any compromise. 👉 Datto's BCDR Resource Center : https://www.datto.com/resources?page=4&categories=BCDR 🙌 Rob Rae: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robtrae/ - special thanks for Datto's sponsorship and interview.

Abstract : With the continuing rise of ransomware, malware defenses are more critical than ever before with regard to securing your MSP and clients. Malware defenses must be able to operate in a dynamic environment through automation, timely and rapid updating, and integrate with other processes like vulnerability management and incident response. Anti-Malware technologies have become an after thought in many organizations, a technology that they’ve always had, always used, and never really thought about. Effective malware protection includes traditional endpoint malware prevention and detection suites, along with enrichment from vendor, vulnerability or threat data. 👉 MSP Partner Growth Program : https://www.malwarebytes.com/partners/managed-service-providers - email Roane Tucker for assistance - rtucker@malwarebytes.com. 🙌 Claudio Tosi : https://www.linkedin.com/in/claudiotosi/ Co-hosts : Ryan Weeks : https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanweeks/ Phyllis Lee : https://www.linkedin.com/in/phyllis-lee-21b58a1a4/ Wes Spencer : https://www.linkedin.com/in/wesspencer/…

CIS Control 9 - Email & Web Browser Protections - sponsored by Cisco Secure MSP 56:13

for 3 years siden56:13

56:13

Abstract : Web browsers and email clients are very common points of entry for attackers because of their direct interaction with users inside an organization. Content can be crafted to entice or spoof users into disclosing credentials, providing sensitive data, or providing an open channel to allow attackers to gain access, thus increasing risk to your MSP or client's business. Since email and web are the main means that users interact with external and untrusted users and environments, these are prime targets for both malicious code and social engineering. 😎 Cisco Secure MSP Interview : with Steve Steinberg, Sales Engineer for Cisco Umbrella. 👉 Cisco Secure Managed Service Provider : https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/security/secure-msp-center.html 🙌 Steve Steinberg : https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevesteinberg/ Interested in learning more: msp@cisco.com Co-hosts : Ryan Weeks : https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanweeks/ Phyllis Lee : https://www.linkedin.com/in/phyllis-lee-21b58a1a4/ Wes Spencer : https://www.linkedin.com/in/wesspencer/…

59:43

Abstract : Log collection and analysis is critical for an organization's ability to detect malicious activity quickly. Sometimes audit logs are the only evidence of a successful attack. Attackers know that many organizations keep audit logs for compliance purposes, but rarely analyze them. Due to poor log analysis processes, attackers sometimes control victim machines for months or years without anyone in the target organization knowing. In this episode, learn about using logs in incident management, analyzing what to log and the numerous factors to establish a successful audit log management process.

Note we discuss Log4j as this is a very timely topic to this control. Abstract : Cyber defenders are constantly being challenged from attackers who are looking for vulnerabilities within their infrastructure to exploit and gain access. Defenders must have timely threat information available to them about: software updates, patches, security advisories, threat bulletins, etc., and they should regularly review their environment to identify these vulnerabilities before the attackers do. Understanding and managing vulnerabilities is a continuous activity, requiring focus of time, attention, and resources.

Abstract : CIS Control 3 is Data Protection and data is pretty much what's at stake for a high percentage of cyber attacks. Data is more valuable than oil and it fuels many organizations. Many of the baseline security recommendations from all of the security frameworks out there now recommend, or REQUIRE if you’re in a regulated industry such as healthcare, that certain things like full disk encryption are simply put into place no matter your risk profile. Much of what’s in the Data Protection Control represents the modern reality of cybersecurity. Note : we split up Data Protection into two shorter podcasts (about 20 minutes each) and therefore, you will see a "part 1 & part 2". Part 2 focuses in depth into CIS Control 3 and the Safeguards 3 - 7 (formerly called sub controls). Co-hosts in part 2 are: Ryan Weeks, CISO of Datto and Wes Spencer, CISO of Perch Security.
