Securing Critical Infrastructure From Insider Threats


Presentation Abstract

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) partners with industry and government to understand and manage risk to the Nation's critical infrastructure. One of the risks that CISA supports its partners in mitigating is insider threat. Given the inherent institutional knowledge, insiders have the ability to significantly disrupt operations if proper mitigating measures are not in place. CISA provides organizations with capabilities that support their efforts in mitigating this risk. Daniel will provide an overview of CISA and the resources it makes available free of cost to public and private sector partners to mitigate insider threats.

Presentation Title
Winning Hearts & Minds: Countering Insider Threats Goes Beyond InfoSec

 

Presentation Abstract

Building and then honing an industry-leading Insider Threat Program involves more than high-tech information security tools. It takes close relationships, buy-in, and actual participation from other key company components as well as senior executives.

 

If one transitions from the government, and is new to the private sector, the environment can seem very different. Where should one begin? One approach involves engaging the tactical, operational and strategic levels, simultaneously. In doing so, there are several do’s and don’ts about which to be mindful. For example, a do - maintain a consistent message - have a message - on all three levels; a don’t – maintain a matter-of-fact demeanor, especially with senior executives. There are many competing priorities - making money or feeling more like a family than a corporation.

 

The Insider Threat Professional must formulate their security strategy by sincerely considering these competing priorities and using them to win the hearts and minds of key individuals who will facilitate the program’s success.

Protecting Cloud Data From Insider Threats

Presentation Abstract
As we’ve seen in recent major Cloud breaches, the insider threat (employees, ex-employees, etc) can lead to catastrophic data loss for banks, government, and other institutions. Predicting and monitoring a malicious insider’s “authorized” activity on data is extremely difficult, yet paramount. We will explore the attack vectors insiders have on data in the cloud and the unique protections needed to secure it.

Presentation Title
Chinese Economic Espionage: Insider Threats & Operational Methods

 

Presentation Abstract
American industry is poorly prepared to contend with the insider threat stemming from China's whole of society approach to economic espionage, theft of intellectual property, technology, and trade secrets. This briefing presents findings on insider threats, their targets, motivations, and operational tradecraft. Conclusions are drawn from analyzing a data set of 447 cases of Chinese espionage. China’s intelligence activities targeting the US industry are conducted by a wide range of organizations including state-owned enterprises, private companies, individuals, and some universities, as well as the country’s intelligence services. The targets of China’s espionage correlate to the priority technologies identified in core government strategies, suggesting a centrally directed but distributed ‘whole of society’ approach to intelligence activity. The level of espionage tradecraft ranges from quite poor to professional, even within organizations; cyber espionage is the exception, showing standardized techniques and practices. The views expressed in this briefing do not reflect Penn State University or the U.S. Government.

Bio
Nicholas Eftimiades is an assistant teaching professor in the Penn State Homeland Security Program. He recently retired from a 34 year government career that included employment in CIA as a Technical Operations Officer, Special Agent in the US Department of State, Bureau of Diplomatic Security, and a Senior Intelligence Officer in Defense Intelligence Agency.

Mr. Eftimiades held positions in analysis, human and technical intelligence collection, and program management. Eftimiades' book Chinese Intelligence Operations is an examination of the structure, operations, and methodology of China's intelligence services. The book received worldwide recognition as the premier scholarly work in the field. He has since published numerous papers and articles on the subject.

Eftimiades testified before Congress and appeared on CBS Evening News, Dateline NBC, ABC's Day One, BBC, National Public Radio, and has been quoted in dozens of other television and radio broadcasts.

HAYSTAX

Mitigating insider threats takes a lot more than just correlating network data. It requires the ability to analyze 'whole-person' behavior — rapidly, continuously and at scale.

Our Haystax For Insider Threat solution was designed from the ground up to:

  • Continuously assesses the trustworthiness of individuals, not just user activity on networks and devices like conventional machine-learning or rules-based solutions.
     

  • Uses a probabilistic model that analyzes evidence from a wide array of data sources to prioritize risk rather than generate excessive false-positive alerts that overwhelm analysts.
     

  • Provides a user interface that mirrors current analyst terminologies and workflows.

  • Includes a connector framework that makes it easy to integrate data and existing detection systems quickly.

Top federal government agencies and large commercial enterprises, as well as state and local public-safety organizations, rely on Haystax for more effective protection of their critical systems, data, facilities and people. A U.S. defense agency has called Haystax for Insider Threat the "only known system for prioritizing personnel according to positive and negative nodes of trust."

Comments From Past ITS&E Events

 

I would like to take the time to thank you for the NITSIG Insider Threat Symposium that I attended last week. I am fortunate enough to be able to attend security conferences regularly and I have to tell you, this was one of the most informative and relevant that I have attended in years.

The Symposium and Expo was excellent. It was great to hear all the speakers and I took away loads of information from each.

I wanted to thank you for your efforts to put on a great symposium today. I did get a chance to take in some great briefs, talk to some vendors about some really interesting products and do a lot of good networking. So, I would call that a big success. Please put me on the mailing list for future products and gatherings that NITSIG is a part of.

Your inaugural conference was a clear success judging by the significant number of attendees who stayed until the very last hour. Steven McIntosh’s presentation was wonderfully organized and addressed many of the underlying issues associated with implementing Insider Threat Programs. Ron Ross (NIST), DeWayne Sharp (FBI), Greg Pannoni and Kathleen Branch also garnered good feedback, as did Mike Caimonao of Boeing. Lastly, you clearly hit a home run with Kurt Stammberger’s presentation of Norse’s insight into the Sony breach.
