Mobile Device & Application = Mobile Threat IPv6 Virtualization
- Conflict Internal security teams can’t keep up with the soaring volume of sophisticated threats. Late detection, poor clarity around which threats are most severe, and the difficulty of reprioritizing resources for remediation puts your entire business on the line. Security breaches can and do destroy businesses – costing millions in lost revenue, shareholder value and customer trust. Market share loss swiftly follows. The volume of threats is massive, and accelerating: new vulnerabilities, new attacks, and new players. Each threat is constantly evolving. Internal security teams can’t keep up. It’s almost impossible for over-tapped internal teams to confidently prioritize which threats present the greatest risk. Companies inevitably over-spend on false ‘emergencies.’
- The solution to keeping up directly addresses many of the biggest challenges that prospects face, especially today. Any security partnership or intelligence organization must deliver Accurate, actionable and detailed threat intelligence to equip an organization’s security team with the following capabilities: Proactively protect your business from the threats that matter most. Actively respond in real-time to malicious threats with deep analysis of what the threat is, where it is coming from and how to mitigate it. Understand the global implications of any emerging or existing threat, as it evolves. Remediate online fraud with rapid credential recovery and constant monitoring of malicious IPs. Prioritize your threat and vulnerability management strategy – and maximize internal resources. Move from ‘security management’ to ‘risk management’ – and take the lead in communicating this strategy to the executive team.
- We are the leading security intelligence research shop. No one else approaches security the way we do. 24 hours a day, every day, we provide vendor neutral security intelligence as our core competency If you look at our marquee customer base you can see that our services are taken seriously as again we are integrated into many of the 3 letter government organizations as a trusted intelligence source, largest financial services companies like Goldman Sachs, insurance, healthcare, retailers like Wal-Mart, and large software companies like Microsoft use our services every day. All of our intelligence is created by six highly specialized teams that work in a matrixes function to discover and analyze emerging threats. Additionally, we have been gathering intelligence since 98 and are our primary team is located in the greater Washington DC area (Dulles, VA) with global visibility and presence through VCP and ongoing field operations. Examples of 24 x 7 – Team worked non-stop between Christmas and New Years 2006, 2007 and 2008
- This slide shows the process we go through to deliver intelligence. I show this slide because some of what I’ve spoken about so far is kind of “cloak and dagger”. We have a discovery phase where information is collected in all sorts of ways, which is then.. Fed to our analysts at various locations in the world at different times who then. Turn that information into intelligence reports of various types such as original vulnerabilities, threats, malicious code, etc. The information is then delivered to our customers in one of four primary means. XML webservice or appliance. We have a XML webservice where report data can be sent to you via a XML webservice or also through an appliance that you can keep onsite where you can utilize the data how ever you want. We also have a secure portal that you can log into to perform research into past threats or read up on recent reports. Also in the portal you can customize your profiles for delivery. Delivery profiles which help customze your e-mail delivery can allow you to make sure your only getting the reports you want from the hundreds created every day. You can get the Oracle reports directly to your oracle guy, or the Malicious Code reports to your malicious code guy, or even reports of only a certain severity of a certain product set once a week to a specific person. The options are endless You can also choose to receive alerts as well via RSS.
- This slide shows our exclusive vulnerability life cycle from discovery to disclosure. The first section here is when one of our 400 researchers in one of 46 different countires in our VCP network discover a new vulnerability. They send this vulnerability to our VeriSign iDefense labs team who verifies the vulnerability is in fact a vulnerability that would be of importance to the security of the internet and to our customers. We then perform our own research documenting how the vulnerability and its associated exploit code works and then work with the Vendor of the vulnerable product to ensure patch development begins. We share this information with the Vendors to better assist them in creating the patch and then share the information with our customers usually the same day. This allows our customers to understand that they may have a device or application in their environment that is vulnerable and they can use our mitigation and work arounds if available to proactively protect themselves. Now the next portion is important, the Disclosure phase. The actual disclosure time from when we notify our customers and vendor to when the vendor makes the actual public disclosure is measured in months… not days… Right now for the last couple years of VeriSign iDefense exclusive vulnerabilities the average time it takes vendors to make a public disclosure of a vulnerability we discover is 121 days on average over the last two years.
- The following VeriSign iDefense capabilities help organizations develop a complete threat picture: A private, worldwide network of independent security researchers who provide exclusive advance notification of unpublished vulnerabilities and exploit code Identification and technical verification of original vulnerabilities Aggregation of raw data originating from more than 1,550 sources, including mailing lists, Web sites, and proprietary resources Around-the-clock monitoring and reporting on threats posed by viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spyware, and adware Analysis of the motivation behind cyber attacks and hacker groups to determine whether such groups will actually exploit a vulnerability Risk research and reporting as it pertains to global threats and emerging technologies and trends
- http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS08-dec.mspx This slide represents what VeriSign iDefense can do for its customers when a real threat emerges. This particular threat came from the Microsoft announced Out of Band Patch in December 2008. Microsoft announced that they would release an out of band patch later on that same day (Dec 9 2008). Our Vulnerability team issued an alert to our customers about the upcoming event and alerted our team about the same. One of our Chinese analysts immediately found the exploit code referenced in the Microsoft Bulletin on a Chinese speaking forum and grabbed it for analysis. At 2 AM, the Vulnerability Team Leader and the Advanced Research Labs leader began discussing the seriousness of the issue and what VeriSign iDefense should do about it. At 5 AM, the team leads woke up the intelligence director to recommend going into War Room Mode. War Room mode is when VeriSign iDefense changes its operational tempo from every 24 hours to 3 hours; in other words, instead of meeting once a day to discuss intelligence matters, the team meets every three hours until an issue is resolved. In the mean time, the VeriSign iDefense Advanced Research Lab (ARL) collected its first set of PCAP files and created its first set of SNORT IDS signatures based on the Chinese sample collected earlier. The Vuln Aggregation Team (VAT) pushed those signatures to all customers. At 10 AM, VeriSign iDefense held its first War Room Meeting. We assigned research tasks. We gathered all customer questions that had begun to come in because of the MS announcement. By 1 PM, the ARL had developed their own Exploit Code that leveraged the Vulnerability description from MS. Now we had two distinct sets of exploit code for the same vulnerability. We knew this was dangerous. We recommended to customers to patch this vulnerability immediately, out of cycle if they could,. But definitely ahead of schedule. MS released the patch at 1 PM We closed the War Room down at 3 PM and hosted a customer call at 5:30 to discuss all that we learned. In 17 hours, we updated the alert for this one vulnerability 7 times with new information about how the vulnerability works, what the potential impact may be and how to mitigate it both with the patch and other work-arounds.

Global Threat Awareness: Protect even against unknown threats On April 22nd, Finjan discovered a botnet with 1.9M users that had been in use since February and was hosted in the Ukraine and allowing malware to bypassed 90% of common anti-virus software. Nothing about this botnet stood out before the event since it appeared to be a completely average bot. However, the unnamed botnet was previously seen by VeriSign iDefense allowing all VeriSign iDefense customers to be protected against the threat months earlier. Incident Response: Extend your team for faster remediation On Feb 26 2009, a mass mailer virus was identified internally within a top global enterprise services firm attempting to spread to all addresses within an address book. A code sample was obtained and submitted to VeriSign iDefense Rapid Response team and within several minutes, receipt of the submission was confirmed by phone. Within 3 hours of submission, an VeriSign iDefense Rapid Report was delivered with analysis and remediation strategies that enabled institution of immediate and accurate file restrictions and updated AV signatures to thwart the threat of the Waledec Mass Email Worm. #4b Incident Response 2 of 2: Extend your team for faster remediation In November 2008, an VeriSign iDefense retail client was confronted with a critical attack whereby a user reported that they were having problems on one of the company websites—home page of a sub-site had been corrupted. A pop-up would appear that requests the user to purchase a fake antivirus product that once installed, the victim is asked to purchase the full version for $50 and redirection takes over the entire browser resulting in a useless fake page. The client quickly reached out to the VeriSign iDefense Rapid Response team as they were having some problems reproducing the error. VeriSign iDefense immediately identified and narrowed down the problem to a malicious advertisement fed into the website through advertising partners, not through a direct attack. The client was notified that all that was required was the removal of the advertisement to mitigate the attack. From the time the incident was reported to VeriSign iDefense to takedown of the ad was less than two hours. The biggest value to client was that with such a quick turnaround, not a single bit of negative press was released about the attack, which could have been detrimental during the holiday season.

- http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS08-067.mspx This slide represents what VeriSign iDefense can do for its customers when a perceived threat is not real. This particular threat came from the media scare about what the Conficker Worm might do on 1 April, April Fool’s Day, of this year. VeriSign iDefense began tracking the worm when MS annouced the OOB patch back in October 2008 and reverse engineered all of the variants for the next few months. We knew exactly what this worm was doing and when it would do it. By january, we even published a prediction algorithm that accurately predicted what domains Conficker would occupy as it spread. And, we published a detection tool to our customers so that they could see if they were infected. In late Mar, the media began reporting that the Internet would melt down because Conficker was going to do something drastic on 1 Apr. We knew by reverse engineering the code that what OCnficker was going to do on 1 Apr was massively update itself with new functionality but that nobody on the internet would be affected. The work could still be used for nefarious purposes, but the 1 Apr update was just an upgrade to the software. All of the VeriSign iDefense customers new this situation well before the media began to hype it and could talk their leadership down form the ledge because of the NPR story they heard that morning.
