We have become so dependent with technology that it is important the we begin to understand what it is that is helping us, and what needs to be worked on in order to better protect us.

The current state of endpoint security is reactive and relies on signature-based detection techniques. These techniques are ineffective against modern malware that is designed to evade detection. Additionally, the increasing use of mobile devices and the cloud create new security challenges that are not currently addressed by traditional security solutions.

The perimeter is no longer effective in deterring or preventing cyberattacks?

Cybersecurity attacks are up more than 80%
How comfortable are you with your ability to detect and respond before damage is done?
Protecting your Data (both business and personal) is the issue that is top of mind. Protecting you and keeping the attacker out, is essential to everyone. That’s what we will discuss to help you protect yourself from getting #HACKED! #HACKED2 delivers the experience of the Author and 12 Exceptional Cybersecurity Professionals all in one location.

Our lives are growing more connected every day. Each gadget we add multiplies the risk of a cyber attack and an invasion of our privacy.

Cyber criminals are collecting data from our computers, phones, cars, and appliances. They can also gain access to our credit card information by hacking point-of-sale (POS) systems at our local stores.

Our information is at great risk of anyone accessing it. We can close these security holes by using tips from the book #HACKED.

Providing Technical review of the CEH v8 Study Guide. Sean-Philip Oriyano, Author.

Abstract – This article is written to describe the changes being made in the Homeland Security activities for new software in development, and how they are improving our overall security. The reader may also find which activities can fit into their Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC) programs to further benefit other organizations as well. This is not an offensive approach to Cyber Security, but an improved defensive approach.

Malicious Code Detection or BRIC Breaking Through Static Analysis: As organizations outsource development to less trustworthy providers malware becomes as much a problem as introduction of honest vulnerability by one's own development shop. Assessment practices currently look for vulnerability within source code and a running systems but these are but a few of windows of opportunity for malware introduction. This presentation demonstrates an approach for augmenting an existing security practice with the capability to detect potentially malicious code through secure code review. First, we show how to break malicious intent--often quite subtle--into concrete patterns we can reliably detect. The framework then demonstrates how to build suspicion around reliance of particular patterns' use in concert which, increasingly, imply malicious intent. These techniques will be explained through a demonstration in a real world application.

Bio Masha (a.k.a Marina) has dreamed of becoming a security consultant before she ever knew what a ballerina was, and that's a good thing - because she does not intend her talk to be a ballet recital. Having been in software security for over seven years, Ms. Khainson has delivered Architecture Risk Assessment, Secure Code Review, and Ethical Hacking on many architectures, platforms and technologies. Marina has also developed training materials for clients and led remediation assistance teams.
