Wednesday, March 19, 2014 - 5:00pm - South Florida OWASP Meeting – 2 great talks and networking after

Talk 1: Classification, Facets, and Conceptual Space in Security Analysis and the Use of Patterns

Security is a complicated field. It involves many different situations, technologies, vulnerabilities, policies and regulations, with challenges that differ from one domain to the next. At the same time, security must be comprehensive. It is not sufficient to be good at only some things, or in some areas. The patterns community has responded to the challenge by documenting best practices in the form of patterns. To date, there are more than 400 security patterns, and the number keeps growing, which creates a problem of its own. How do you know which patterns address your situation? We haven’t solved this problem. But we have made progress by redefining the task from “How do you classify patterns?” to “How do you divide up the problem space into meaningful regions of concern where useful patterns might be found?” In this talk we describe a method of subdividing concerns specific to the problem of security, based to George Miller’s idea of concept grids. An interesting feature of this work is that it creates a framework for discussing security concerns and investigating spaces that aren’t covered, as well as those that are.

Talk 2: Secure by Design

Building security into the SDLC is essential to creating secure applications. The cost of security issues identified during during an application penetration test or code review can be exponentially higher than addressing these security concerns earlier in the SDLC. This talk will address integrating security into the requirements,architecture and design process. We will walk through misuse cases, threat modeling and review security design patterns.

Talk 1: A Security Reference Architecture for Cloud Systems

Reference architectures (RAs) are becoming useful tools to understand and build complex systems and many cloud providers and software product vendors have developed versions of them. However, until now few security reference architectures have appeared. Almost all of them use rather imprecise models and this appears to be the first attempt to define them more precisely. We propose here a Security Reference Architecture (SRA) defined using UML models and incorporating our approach to build secure systems. By SRA we mean a RA where security services have been added in appropriate places to provide some degree of security for the complete cloud environment. We use as starting point our own cloud reference architecture and we combine security patterns and misuse patterns to build a secure reference architecture. By checking if a threat, expressed as a misuse pattern, can be stopped or mitigated in the secure reference architecture, we can evaluate its level of security. We have done a systematic enumeration of cloud threats and have started building a catalog of cloud misuse patterns; with a complete catalog we can apply them systematically and use the reference architecture to find where we should add corresponding security patterns to stop them. We are also building a catalog of cloud security patterns; security patterns join the extensive knowledge accumulated about security with the structure provided by patterns to provide guidelines for secure system design and evaluation.

Wednesday, April 24th, 2013 - 5:00pm - South Florida OWASP Meeting – Two great talks and networking after

Join us for our April meeting where we will have two great talks. Please note that the scheduled talks are for 60 minutes each with a small break in between. We will have a networking event after as usual.

Talk 1: Threat Modeling

As we focus on the threats that plaque our organizations we not only need to understand the threat but also understand the steps used by the attackers. Profiling these attacks enables threat modeling allowing yourself and your organization to understand how to successfully position yourself against threat actors and adversaries. In this session I will share some high level attack profiles or patterns and how we should look at them to successfully set your organizational course and security strategy. I will also share some detailed models which he has previously developed to help organizations successfully model for web application threats.

Throughout his career James has delivered solutions for network architecture and application security, penetration testing, incident response, security and risk assessment, forensics and investigations and product security.

Talk 2: Adding Security to BPEL Workflows of Web Services

BPEL (Business Process Enterprise Language) is a language for web services composition and several implementations of it exist. For BPEL to be effective, it is necessary that it provides more support for security. BPEL doesn’t present any means to specify security constraints for workflows. BPEL through its activities tries to provide specific functional aspects and any non-functional aspects are expected to be addressed by other (lower-level) specifications. We present here a way to specify security requirements in BPEL. Since BPEL describes workflows, we present its activities using UML activity diagrams, where we apply a threat enumeration approach to determine the required security mechanisms to stop these threats. Our approach goes beyond BPEL and can be applied to BPMN and other business flow languages.

Wednesday, Sept 26, 2012 - 5:00pm - South Florida OWASP Meeting - Two great talks and networking after

Join us for our September meeting where we will have two great talks. Please note that the scheduled talks are for 30 minutes each with a small break in between. We will have a networking event after as usual. Our event sponsor, NoVA will also be there with some important announcements

Talk 1: Application Vulnerability Assessment Risk (AVAR) Score

During application vulnerability assessment a number of vulnerabilities may be discovered. Issues discovered during this assessment are given a risk score value or a rating of High, Medium, or Low; mostly based on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) or Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) risk classification of known vulnerabilities. The industry application vulnerability risk classification models assign a risk level to an issue based on the impact of the specific vulnerability. They do not put into consideration the likelihood of occurrence based on known reported incidents or the impact of interdependencies between related vulnerabilities. The AVAR Score has implemented an approach that provides a holistic analysis on the risk of an application based on the interdependencies of related vulnerabilities and the probability of occurrence.

Talk 2: JSON Hijacking

JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) is a language and platform independent format for data interchange. JSON is in widespread use with a number of JSON parsers and libraries available for different languages. While some information is available for JSON Hijacking this attack is not very well understood.

Rohini Sulatycki will give an overview of this attack as well as provide a demonstration.

Wednesday, June 27, 2012 - 6:00pm - South Florida OWASP Meeting - Two great talks and networking after

Join us for our June meeting where we will have two great talks. Please note that the scheduled talks are for 30 minutes each with a small break in between. We will have a networking event after as usual.

Talk 1: Bad encryption implementations using PBKDF2

PBKDF2 is a popular way to generate long encryption keys from human-memorable passwords and passphrases. Used properly, it can keep encrypted sensitive data safe from attackers long enough for its ultimate compromise to be almost moot (assuming the attacker doesn't lose interest and give up first). Used badly, in conjunction with poorly-implemented AES encryption, it will protect sensitive data for approximately 5 minutes against an attacker with a 2 year old laptop and a list of compromised real-world passwords obtained from popular websites.

Presenter Bio: Jeff Skubick is a security analyst with more than a decade of professional experience developing mobile and web applications for companies like Verizon, and a lifetime of recreational hacking that extends far enough back into childhood to remember what happens when you JSR to $FFD2. His second language was 6502 assembly. As a teenager, he doubled his Amiga’s RAM by soldering piggybacked chips onto the motherboard, then spent 10 minutes on the phone with Dave Haynie learning what a "slow PAL" was. In his spare time, he invalidates warranties, builds robots, and takes liberties with local building codes in the name of home automation. He will never, ever make the mistake of buying another Motorola Android phone with a locked bootloader.

Talk 2: Mobile Framework vulnerabilities

Mobile frameworks are being used for cross-platform development and to ease development efforts in producing applications for iOS/Android/Blackberry devices. In this talk we observe bad development practices and expose some issues found in open source frameworks, notably Apache Cordova (previously known as "PhoneGap").

Presenter Bio: Claudio J. Lacayo causes 500 response errors in web applications and is currently evangelizing the use of native code over frameworks.

Thursday. February 23, 2012 - 5:00pm - South Florida OWASP Meeting - Two great talks and networking after

Join us for our February meeting where in alignment with our previous announcement, we will have two great talks. Please note that food and drink after the meeting will also be sponsored by WhiteHat.

Talk 1: Future of Cross Site Scripting defenses

This talk will discuss the past methods used for cross-site scripting (XSS) defense that were only partially effective. Learning from these lessons, we will also discuss present day defensive methodologies that are effective, but place an undue burden on the developer.

South Florida OWASP is teaming up with South Florida ISSA to bring you a very special St. Patricks Day meeting. There will be an after-party sponsored by Barracuda in Boca.

We will have two great talks: Edward Bonver from Symantec will speak on Threat Modeling followed by Grant Murphy from Barracuda presenting their latest research: The State of Web Application Security.

This meeting will be held from 3:30pm - 5:30pm at NCCI Holdings, Inc in Boca Raton and the party, sponsored by Barracuda, will be at the Dubliner.

NCCI Holdings 901 Peninsula Corporate Cir Boca Raton, FL 33487-1362

Dubliner 435 Plaza Real Boca Raton, FL

Talk: Threat Modeling Threat Modeling is one of the most important security activities that a development/QA team needs to perform as part of a Security Development Lifecycle. This activity allows the team to build a complete security profile of the system being built. Threat Modeling is not always easy to get going for a team that has little or no security experience. In this presentation we'll take a look at why Threat Modeling is so important; we'll explore the process behind it, and how the process is being implemented and followed across Symantec.

Bio: Edward Bonver - Software Engineer, Symantec Edward Bonver is a principal software engineer on the product security team under the Office of the CTO at Symantec Corporation. In this capacity, Edward is responsible for working with software developers and quality assurance (QA) professionals across Symantec to continuously enhance the company's software security practices through the adoption of methodologies, procedures and tools for secure coding and security testing.

He holds a master's degree in computer science from California State University, Northridge, and a bachelor's degree in computer science from Rochester Institute of Technology. Edward is a Ph.D. student at NOVA Southeastern University.

Talk: The State of Web Application Security It's no secret that more and more commerce is being conducted via Web applications. Web-based applications are convenient for consumers and allow vendors to get applications online quickly to reach those consumers. This trend has also created a variety of privacy and security concerns that affect all companies transacting business over the Web. Recently, Barracuda networks co-sponsored a research study conducted by the Ponemon Institute titled "The State of Web Application Security" that revealed that these concerns are keenly felt by web application administrators. However, a major disconnect exists as appropriate countermeasures to these threats are either ineffective or completely non-existent. Join us for an informative seminar to learn:

More about our revealing research,

Why Web applications are under attack,

What hackers are doing to compromise Web applications

How to mitigate this risk.

Bio: Grant Murphy, Vice President of Enterprise Solutions, Barracuda Networks Grant Murphy is Vice President of Enterprise Solutions managing worldwide sales for the Barracuda Web Application Firewall and the Web Filtering products at Barracuda Networks.

Abstract: Improving application security with ESAPI Swingset
The primary aim of the OWASP Top 10 is to educate developers, designers, architects and organisations about the consequences of the most important web application security weaknesses. ESAPI is Enterprise security API's for remediation of OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. The ESAPI libraries are designed to make it easier for programmers to retrofit security into existing applications.
The ESAPI Swingset is a web application which demonstrates common security vulnerabilities and asks users to secure the application against these vulnerabilities using the ESAPI libraries. The application is intended for Java Developers. The goal of the application is to teach developers about the functionality of the ESAPI libraries and give users a practical understanding of how it can be used to protect web applications against common security vulnerabilities.
