Nation State conflict in the 21st Century has evolved and morphed from being
purely kinetic and physical as represented by a variety of low and medium
intensity wars to one in which we are all now involved as unwilling participants.
The current battlefield is the digital realm where there is little distinction
between combatants and non-combatants. Traditionally there are laws of armed conflict in the physical
world yet in this new world of cyber warfare no such digital rules of engagement exist. The "Rise of a
Cybered Westphalian Age"should be a pre-requisite for all information security professionals and during
Bill Hagestad's session as he will take conference delegates on a tour of various nation state cyber
warfare preparedness activities and the seemingly endless paradigm which is now known as cyber
warfare in the 21st century. Lieutenant Colonel Hagestad, USMCR (ret), has a Master’s of Science in

Brian Prince – Microsoft-Lvl 300 - Architectural patterns for the cloud
Enough mushy, baby talk about the cloud. Let's roll up our sleeves and talk about
some real patterns for how to use the cloud in the real world. Hint: As much as
some vendors want you to think so, it doesn't require you to move everything to
the cloud. Leave with some concrete ways to use the cloud in your existing world.
Brian H. Prince is a Principal Cloud Evangelist for Microsoft, based in the US. He
gets super excited whenever he talks about technology, especially cloud computing, patterns, and
practices. His job is to help customers strategically leverage technology, and help them bring their
architecture to a super level.In a past life Brian was a part of super startups, super marketing firms, and

Clarke Cummings-The Pitfalls of Cloud Security
Many organizations today are beginning to adopt at least some services out of the cloud. The term has
become so ubiquitous that it regularly makes an appearance in television commercials. And while many
infrastructure teams in organizations have an easier time of things, the security group is often taxed
with additional concerns about how to deal with cloud security. This presentation will examine some
common risks that often turn into deep pits and how to avoid them.
Curtis K. S. Levinson, CDP-CCP, CISSP-CAP, CBCP, MBCP, CCSK -(APT’s), a balanced
approach for survivability and sustainability in the Cyber Realm
Advanced Persistent Threat (APT): APTs are attacks on US information technology
and telecommunications infrastructure by known nation-state and other bad actors.
These attacks are currently taking the form of Phishing and Spear Phishing attacks on
US assets both government and industry. Phishing attacks are extremely difficult to
detect and it appears from public sources that a portion of the attacks are coming
from (spoofed) trusted domains, which makes filtering even more difficult. The primary remedy to such
attacks is a combination of extreme user education/training and comprehensive Business Continuity
Planning and Disaster Recovery (BCP/DR/COOP) implementation. Users need to be educated as to what
acceptable practices are for eMail messages with embedded URLs and the urgent need to NOT CLICK on
embedded URLs. Any questions as to the nature of the destination of the embedded URL MUST be
directed to the message author, NOT acted upon in the eMail note itself. Since bad things can, do and
will continue to happen, recovery plans, programs and techniques must be up to the task of restoring
critical functions as soon as possible. The quicker we can recover, the more ineffective the attack.
Mr. Levinson has over 25 years of focused experience in Cyber Security and Information Assurance. He is
a highly experienced risk assessor and technology architect specializing in all phases of the cyber process
including regulatory compliance, policy formulation, cyber attribution and forensics, risk analysis,
network/system hardening and resilience, implementation, testing, certification and accreditation,
operations, training and managing the cyber aspects of information and telecommunications systems in
a wide variety of environments. Mr. Levinson has served two sitting Presidents of the United States,
two Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Chief Justice of the United States. He has been
selected by NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) to represent the United States as an advisory
subject matter expert on Cyber Defense for the IRCSG (Industrial Resources and Communications

Mick Douglas- Mo data? Mo problems!
Do you run find yourself drowning in the explosive growth in data, logs, and other
sources of information? People simply are not able to keep up -- or are we? This
talk will focus on using "smart stats" and other innovative data visualization tools.
Various tools and techniques will be discussed, culminating in the use of a
Microsoft kinect to explore and interact with relationships inside data cubes.
** Note this talk will require the use of a Microsoft Kinect (I will provide) which will
require about 10 minutes of setup time prior to the start of the presentation. While Mick enjoys and
actively participates in penetration testing, his true passion is defense -- tweaking existing networks,
systems, and applications to keep the bad guys out. In addition to his technical work, Mick jumps at
every chance to participate in a social engineering engagement. Mick has a bachelor's degree from The

Rob Rachwald- The Anatomy of A Hacktivist Attack
In 2011, Imperva managed to witness an assault by a hacktivist group, including the
use of social media for communications and, most importantly, their attack
methods. Since hacktivist’s targets are highly variable, anyone can fall victim and
security professionals need to know how to prepare.
This talk will walk through the key stages of an hacktivist campaign, including:
1. Recruitment and communication: We show how hacktivists leverage social networks to recruit
its members and pick a target.
2. Application attack: We detail and sequence the steps hacktivists deploy to take data and bring
down websites.
3. DDoS: In this final stage, we shed light on the DDoS techniques deployed to take down

Rohyt Belani- Spear Phishing: The truth behind Night Dragon, Aurora, and APT
This presentation will discuss the evolution of phishing from being a means of stealing
user identities to becoming a mainstay of organized crime. Today, phishing is a key
component in a "hackers" repertoire. It has been used to hijack online brokerage
accounts to aid pump n' dump stock scams, compromise government networks,
sabotage defense contracts, steal proprietary information on oil contracts worth
billions, and break into the world's largest technology companies to compromise their
intellectual property. During this talk, I will present the techniques used by attackers to execute these
attacks, and real-world cases that my team have responded to that will provide perspective on the
impact. I will then discuss countermeasures that have been proven to be effective and are
recommended by reputed bodies like SANS and Carnegie Mellon University.
Rohyt Belani is CEO and co-founder of PhishMe, and Adjunct Professor at Carnegie Mellon University.
Prior to starting the PhishMe, Mr. Belani has held the positions of Managing Director at Mandiant,
Principal Consultant at Foundstone and Researcher at the US-CERT. He is a contributing author for

Steve Ocepek- The Cloud is here to stay, but like any new technology it has its own
unique set of security concerns. The obvious ones -- easier access to data, transfer of
data to third parties -- have been fairly well covered,
but as this solution matures we're finding surprising issues that urge an even more
cautious approach. This presentation includes real-world findings uncovered by
Trustwave's Incident Response and Application Security teams that remind us that The
Cloud changes everything, especially when things go wrong. In addition we'll take a
hard look at Cloud infrastructures themselves, their potential weak points, and discuss strategies for
choosing a secure Cloud provider. An innovative network security expert with an entrepreneurial spirit,
Steve Ocepek has been a driving force in pioneering Network Access Control (NAC) technologies
delivering comprehensive endpoint control for mitigation of zero attacks, policy enforcement, and
access management, for which he has been awarded 4 patents with 1 patent pending.
Steve co-founded Wholepoint Corporation in 2001, serving as chief technology officer of a five person
operation in a garage, where he invented patented network security software and devices which played
a key role in positioning the company for mergers with multimillion dollar Mirage Networks in 2004 and
Trustwave in 2008. He has been asked to remain, post-mergers, serving as a senior software consultant
and senior security consultant, and is currently the director of security research. With a reputation for
preventing, intercepting, and resolving malicious attacks from malware, viruses, and worms, Steve has
provided consultative testing, and made recommendations for remediation for Fortune 500 and
government enterprises in financial, credit card processing, educational, healthcare, and high-tech
industries. His testing of network penetration, use of Network Access Control (NAC), Intrusion Detection
Systems (IDS), Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), Web Application Firewalls (WAF), Network
Firewalls, and Encryption Solutions enable him to advise on new countermeasures improving security,
saving clients millions of dollars in losses of intellectual property, client data, customer confidence, and
litigation costs. Steve has led the growth of SpiderLabs Security Research Department from 7 to 13
researchers on three teams, more than doubling services providing solutions to meet the needs of
clients worldwide in identifying, preventing, and solving network security threats and problems. He is
known as a trusted resource and problem solver by chief information officers, directors of security, chief
technical officers, chief operating officers, chief executive officers, and military and national security
leaders.
Tom Eston-The Android vs. Apple iOS Security Showdown
Android and Apple mobile devices have taken the market by storm. Not only are
they being used by consumers but they are now being used for critical functions
in businesses, hospitals and more. This trend is expected to continue with the
popularity of mobile devices such as tablets well into the future. In this
presentation we put Android up against Apple iOS to determine which, if any, are
ready for enterprise use. Once and for all we battle the Apple App Store vs.
Android Marketplace, device updates, developer controls, security features and the current slew of
vulnerabilities for both devices. Which platform will emerge the victor? You might find that while the
"tech is hot" the implementation and built in security controls are usually “not".
