RLUGers,

I want to drop you all a note to let you know that on 8/13/2003
I will be speaking at SDForum in Mountain View.

My presentation will be:
 
At the SDForum Security SIG.
Topic: Guerilla Anti-penetration Techniques

Unconventional offensive and defensive strategies to defeat penetration

Program Overview

All Information Security is a form of warfare. In information warfare
the enemy is often unseen, intangible, and has little fear of
repercussion. Unlike conventional warfare, in a failed attack, the
attacker generally learns more about the target systems than the
recipient of the attack does of the methods of the aggressor.

Most information security techniques used today are either based on
reactionary post-penetration strategies, or based on tactics that apply
to conventional warfare, not to information warfare. Offensive and
defensive strategies and tactical implementations can be used to defeat
attacks.

The reactionary strategies although not entirely unusable, are not
suitable for preventing and protecting against future penetration
attempts. A majority of the security strategies and tactics are based on
the "Penetrate and Patch" method of reactionary security. Other
strategies include the use of real-time intrusion detection sensors.
Unfortunately, these tools are incapable of interpreting failed security
attempts and adapting to new threats. The presenter will map strategies
and tactics to compensate for these flaws. The information presented
will help you learn how improve the security of any network.
