18:30 - 19:00 Dinner 19:00 - 19:15 Welcome, OWASP update 19:15 - 20:00 Machine Learning vs. Cryptocoin Miners by Jonn Callahan 20:00 - 2-:15: Break 20:15 - 21:00 Running at Light Speed: Cloud Native Security Patterns by Jack Mannino 21:00 - Closing

Machine Learning vs. Cryptocoin Miners: With the advent of cryptocurrencies as a prevalent economic entity, attackers have begun turning compromised boxes and environments into cash via cryptocoin mining. This has given rise for the necessity to detect compromised environments by analyzing network traffic logs for evidence of cryptocoin miners operating within a given network. In this talk, I'll be reviewing various ML and statistical analysis techniques leveraged against VPC Flow Logs for this very purpose. It will not be a deep dive of the math involved, but instead a general discussion of these techniques and why I chose them.

Running at Light Speed: Cloud Native Security Patterns No matter how fast you ship software, a good design is critical to security. Cloud native systems are no exception. Containerized microservices running on distributed management and orchestration platforms, bring new challenges to address as well as classic software problems that we’ve been dealing with for years. Secure software design patterns can be used to model security controls at different trust boundaries within your architecture, providing security in a repeatable and consumable way. Using patterns such as the Service Mesh or Ambassador pattern lets us focus on proper security control placement and lifting security outside of the core services we’ve traditionally bolted security onto later.

The goal of this presentation is to arm software developers and security architects with reference architecture guidance that can be used in any cloud native environment. The topics we’ll cover include multi-tenancy considerations, authentication, authorization, encryption, and more. We will focus on newer cloud native architecture patterns as well as some classic software design patterns that are still applicable. At the end of this presentation, you’ll have a greater understanding of cloud native security design at an architectural level and you’ll be eager to begin white-boarding your ideas.

Speakers info: Jonn Callahan has worked in appsec for half a decade across a wide variety of languages, technologies, and sectors. While constantly looking for new things to play with, he rediscovered his love for the universal language of math and, consequentially, the power of statistical analysis and machine learning. He now seeks to dismantle the black magic of these techniques, showing that they don't require an advanced mathematics degree to be leveraged, as well as to find novel ways to apply them within the security space Jack Mannino is the CEO of nVisium. Passionate about security and impossible to keep away from a keyboard, his expertise spans over 15 years of building, breaking, and securing software. Jack founded nVisium in 2009, and since then has helped the world's largest software teams enhance security across their software portfolios. He has spoken at conferences globally on topics such as secure design, mobile application security, and cloud-native security.

19:15 - 20:00 Serverless Security – Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS) by Niels Tanis - Video - PDF

20:15 - 21:00 Building a security test automation framework by Riccardo ten Cate - Video - PDF

Radboud University Nijmegen: Faculty of Science, Huygensgebouw; Heyendaalseweg 135; 6525 AJ Nijmegen

Serverless Security – Functions-as-a-Service (FaaS)
Serverless is a design pattern for writing scalable applications in which Functions as a Service (FaaS) is one of the key building blocks. Every mayor Cloud Provider has got his own FaaS available. On Microsoft Azure there is Azure Functions, AWS has got Lambda and Cloud Functions can be used on the Google Cloud. All of these have a lot of similarities in the way they allow developers to create small event driven services. From security perspective there are a lot of benefits when moving to a serverless architecture. There is no need to manage any of the machines and the underlying infrastructure. Dealing with updates, patches and infrastructure is the responsibility of the platform provider. FaaS are short lived processes which will be instantiated and destroyed in a matter of milliseconds making it more resilient to denial-of-services (DoS) and also makes it harder to attack and compromise. But will all of this be sufficient to be ’secure’ or should we be worried about more? With serverless there is still a piece of software that will be developed, build, deployed and executed. It will also introduce a more complex architecture with corresponding attack surface which also makes it hard to monitor. What about the software supply chain and delivery pipeline? There still will be a need to patch your software for vulnerabilities in code and used 3rd party libraries. In this talk we will identify the security area’s we do need to focus on when developing serverless and define possible solutions for dealing with those problems.

Niels Tanis has got a background in .NET development, pentesting and security consultancy. He also holds the CSSLP certification and has been involved in breaking, defending and building secure applications. He joined Veracode in 2015 and right now he works as a security researcher on a variant of languages and technologies related to Veracode’s Binary Static Analysis service. He is married, father of 2 and lives in a small village just outside Amersfoort, The Netherlands.

Building a security test automation framework Either to implement in your SSDLC, or you just want to have a security test automation framework to i.e periodically scan your infrastructure?

In this talk, I am going to present some best practices for how to build a "security test automation framework". These best practices derived directly from all the pitfalls I encountered from implementing these type of solution for my customers.

This talk teaches how to create an agnostic and scalable solution with Docker and Kubernetes. Dockerize your favorite security tooling Deploy these containers in your Kubernetes cluster This talk teaches how to manage your findings effectively with a vulnerability management solution

Use Defect Dojo to manage your vulnerabilities
Use Defect Dojo for Delta reporting
Use Defect Dojo for false positive suppression

This talk teaches how to prevent key sprawl and manage your secrets with a Keyvault

Store and manage your API keys
No more hardcoded secrets in your application
Even use it to build TOTP (Time based one time passwords)

This talk teaches you everything you need to know to get started with security test automation and how to implement your favorite security tooling into different CI/CD platforms (Jenkins, VSTS, Travis, etc) and into their pipelines.

Riccardo ten Cate

As a penetration tester from the Netherlands Riccardo specializes in web application security and has extensive knowledge in securing web applications in multiple coding languages. Riccardo also has expertise on implementing security test automation in CI/CD pipelines and is a project leader of the OWASP Security knowledge framework.

19:00 - 19:15 Welcome, OWASP update

19:15 - 20:00: Building a Security ‘Culture’ by Gareth O’Sullivan

20:15 - 21:00: Building secure software with OWASP tools and guides by Martin Knobloch

21:00 - Closing

Vergader Inn: Croeselaan 207; 3521 BN Utrecht

Building a Security ‘Culture’ Rushing Towards Digital Transformation Breaches. Despite significant investments in security technology and processes, attackers still gain access to protected data on a regular basis. IT builds higher and higher walls around the locations where data lives but attacks persist. Mass migration to cloud computing has improved scalability, lowered costs, and freed IT from having to manage the application environment. However, this means cloud becomes a target for attackers, and it becomes more risky to store sensitive data there. BYOD makes users’ devices a target as well. Obviously from a security standpoint, the greater number of devices there are to manage, the greater the risk of attack. What to do, and where to start?

Gareth O’Sullivan Lead Technology Research Consultant at Genomics Medicine Ireland, a company helping map the Irish Genome & recently established as Managing Director of Progress Distribution Ireland a leading EMEA Cyber Security distributor. Gareth is an IT Security Executive with 20 years’ experience in the software industry, 13 of which have been security focused. Previously Snr Director of Solutions Architecture at WhiteHat Security covering EMEA plus similar roles in the past with IBM & Watchfire. Technical, Compliance and Commercially focused so enjoy engaging with technology but also like to build teams, conducting business development, sales channel development & pipeline generation.

Building secure software with OWASP tools and guides All know the OWASP TopTen, some one or more other projects. The problem is, where the wiki is good to archive the project information, it is hard to find information if you don't know what you are looking for. Therefore, only a few have a broader understanding of projects (being tools or guides) you can use in your software development lifecycle, even before, to create more secure software. This talk is highlighting various OWASP projects taking you from CISO policies, security requirements to building and secure software and verifying the security level.

Martin Knobloch is security consultant at Xebia.com. His main working area is (software) security in general, from awareness to implementation. In his daily work, he is responsible for education in application security matters, advise and implementation of application security measures. With his background in Java Development, he understands the complexity of Enterprise software development, Agile Scrum environments and continuous delivery / deployment.

19:00 - 19:15 Welcome, OWASP update & Inspire introduction

19:15 - 20:00: Adding Privacy by Design in Secure Application Development by Sebastien Deleersnyder

20:15 - 21:00: Smashing Ethereum Smart Contracts for Fun and ACTUAL Profit by Bernhard Mueller

21:00 - Closing

Inspire: Voetiusstraat 2; 3512 JM Utrecht

Adding Privacy by Design in Secure Application Development The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is coming. One monumental change is the introduction of Privacy by Design. In this presentation we will focus on the Privacy by Design (PbD) implications for developers. Two cornerstones for a successful implementation of PbD will be pitched: 1) the integration of GDPR in a Secure Development Lifecycle approach 2) threat modeling and GDPR risk patterns

Ethereum is an open software blockchain platform that enables developers to build and deploy decentralized apps. Over the past couple of years, its cryptocurrency Ether has taken the number two spot in market cap second to Bitcoin.

Smashing Ethereum Smart Contracts for Fun and ACTUAL Profit In Ethereum, state transitions are mediated by code (a.k.a “smart contracts”) running in the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) which boasts a turing-complete instruction set, allowing for near-unlimited use cases including (but not limited to) crypto kitties. However, with great flexibility comes great potential for vulnerabilities. And in accordance to Murphy’s law, disaster has stricken several times, resulting in hundreds of millions worth of Ether being stolen or stuck in limbo for all eternity. In this talk, I will investigate recent incidents, and shed light on the various types of flaws that occur in Ethereum smart contracts. I’ll show how to explore the blockchain and reverse engineer smart contract binary code using Mythril, the “nmap of Ethereum”. I’ll also demonstrate the use of symbolic analysis to detect different types of vulnerabilities, including those resulting from inter-contract calls. Finally, I’ll show how to autogenerate Ethereum exploits using the Z3 solver.

19:15 - Talk:

In de Ict-industrie zit naarstig te wachten op het eigen incident dat een groot verschil gaat maken in het denken over beveiliging. De OWASP TOP-10 is het triest bewijs dat veel organisaties, maar bitter weinig leren van beveiliging. Hoe anders is dat in transport geweest toen het denken radicaal omsloeg na de ondergang van de Titanic. Gaat nu opnieuw logistiek opnieuw voor de omslag in denken zorgen of wachten we op een andere ramp? Want dat technologie juist in die industrie een alles veranderende rol staat spelen, kan tot weinig discussie leiden. En als de verandering komt hoe ziet dan de wereld eruit? Is OWASP klaar voor zo’n nieuwe situatie?

Brenno de Winter (1971) schreef zijn eerste computerprogramma op vijfjarige leeftijd en is sindsdien altijd met technologie bezig geweest. Hij is al jaren bezig met beveiliging. Tijdens zijn jaren als journalist schreef hij menig verhaal dat een fundamentele discussie startte of het nu ging over het kraken van de OV-chipkaart, Diginotar, de duizenden lekken die rond lektoner naar voren kwamen of falend beleid. Als boekenschrijver schreef hij diverse titels en werkt hij aan eend methodiek om meer ‘zeewaardig te worden’ op beveiligingsgebied.
