Realities of Security in the Cloud
- 1. Thank you.Reality Check: Security in the Cloud Amy Bogroff– Director Sales Engineering - East, Alert Logic
- 2. The Cloud Is Secure. • AWS provides the most comprehensive suite of tools allowing subscribers to achieve that promise • Integrators like Presidio work to simplify the transition
- 3. Sometimes… • Through 2022, at least 95% of cloud security failures will be the customer’s fault – Gartner • More than 1.5 billion sensitive corporate and other files are visible on the public internet due to human error – Digital Shadows • 88% of Java applications had at least one component-based vulnerability, 56% of all PHP apps had at least one SQLi vulnerability - Veracode • Attackers are outpacing enterprises with technology such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) – Ponemon/ServiceNow
- 4. With great power, comes those that seek to abuse it.
- 5. Check your sources… Attacks are cloud scale just like your application.
- 6. Check your surroundings… Your adversary is leveraging ML and AI against you.

- 8. Alert Logic Cloud Security Report 2017 550 DAYS AUG 1, 2015 –JAN 31 2017 2,207,795 TOTAL TRUE POSITIVE SECURITY INCIDENTS ANALYZED 32.5 MILLION EVENTS DRIVING ESCALATED INCIDENTS 147 PETABYTES OF DATA ANALYZED 3807 CUSTOMERS ANALYZED 452 INDUSTRIES ACROSS 3 CONTINENTS
- 9. Key Findings 1. Web applications are the soft underbelly of your organization – the number-one means by which attackers breach data. 2. The movement toward assembling a chain of vulnerabilities to build hard-to-detect, resilient attacks is accelerating. 3. Hybrid networks, with portions scattered among public clouds, private clouds, and on-premises systems, are at greatest risk. 4. Organizations in different sectors suffer from very similar attacks – and can learn much from each other.
- 10. Workload Environments Impact Incident Volumes 2.5x more security incidents observed in Hybrid vs Public Cloud 51% higher rate of security incidents in on premises vs Cloud AVERAGE PER CUSTOMER SECURITY INCIDENT COUNTS
- 11. Web App Attacks – King of the Hill WEB APP ATTACK DoS / DDoS 1% Other 1% 75% DOS/DDOS 1% OTHER 1% SERVER-SIDE MALWARE 2% RECON 5% BRUTE FORCE 5% SQL INJECTION 55% REMOTE CODE EXECUTION 22% XXE 3% APACHE STRUTS RCE 6% WEB APP ATTACK RECON 5% FILE UPLOAD 6% OTHER 4% SECURITY INCIDENT TYPES ESCALATED
- 12. Increasing vulnerabilities at every layer Vulnerabilities in YOUR CODE Vulnerabilities in YOUR CONFIGS Vulnerabilities YOU INHERIT
- 13. Detect, Inspect, & Escalate Industry Challenge: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Known Good Known Bad Suspicious Allow Identify | Tune | Permit Block Drop | Reconfigure Application Stack Web Apps Server-side Apps App Frameworks Dev Platforms Databases Server OS Hypervisor Hardware Classification Action HUMAN EXPERT REQUIRED Page 13
- 14. What Can We Do??? • Scan for vulnerabilities and misconfigurations • WAF blocking/virtual patching, IDS, and log monitoring as air cover as you burn down your web app vulnerabilities • Leverage multiple detection techniques • Compliance requirements also tend to be best practices ASSESS BLOCK COMPLY DETECT
- 15. Address Vulnerabilities Source: SC Magazine: scmagazine.com/one-year-later-heartbleed-still-a-threat/article/407803/ SHELLSHOCK HEARTBLEED % of Global 2000 Organizations Vulnerable to Heartbleed in August 2014: 76% April, 2015: 74% 359 of 6000 analyzed containers – Tenable, 2018
- 16. Leverage Multiple Detection Techniques
- 17. Anomaly Detection – Something Just Doesn’t Look Right
- 18. Multi-stage Web Application Attacks Appear As Noise
- 19. Enter Machine Learning Over nine months : 8-10% of the customers we monitored were targeted by actors with better-than- average levels of skill and determination Each attack had a High degree of complexity Identified, approx. 231 attacks
- 20. Multi-stage Attacks Time: Day 1 Event: Early stage recon event Criticality: Medium Time: Day 3 Event: SQL Injection recon Criticality: Medium Time: Day 4 Event: SQL table enumeration Criticality: High Time: Day 4 Event: Injection Criticality: Critica Situation: Multiple address spaces and disparate unrelated events over days

- 22. Behind the Data Web apps and misconfigurations can be the final destination…or initial entry point Perimeter AND Network AND System /log-based Detection defend your hosts see N / S / E / W in all of your protected environments WAF blocking/virtual patching, IDS, and log monitoring as air cover as you burn down your web app vulnerabilities • Redistribute malware directly / indirectly (exploit kits / watering hole) • Monetization through fraud (SEO, Coin Mining, Spam) • Entry point into Infrastructure • Lateral movement, privilege escalation • Steal data (exfiltration of information from databases)
- 23. Best Practices Know your Shared Security Responsibilities with AWS Attack surface isn’t just where your data resides Continually assess for exposures across all environments Understand impacts from applicable compliance mandates Implement controls built for cloud , containers, and DevOps
