3 Agenda The IT world we live in: the device mesh The future of security: expert predictions Perimeter defense: turning security inside out Notable breaches How IT auditing supplements security strategy Questions and answers

4 The IT World We Live in: The “Device Mesh”

5 Device mesh — is the proliferation of smart, digital, wireless, sensor-based, interconnected devices that people use personally and professionally to access applications, systems and information. Other IT buzz words today: Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, Big Data, Advanced Analytics, Advanced Machine Learning, Bring-Your-Own-Device, Convergence, DevOps, PaaS/SaaS

6 Examples The ones we already got used to:

7 Examples The ones that are growing in popularity: Self-driving cars Connected smart home devices Smart clothing Personal health devices Robots assistants Other sensor-based devices and wearables for work and leisure

8 Devices are widely used for work (BYOD spreads in the business world) but are lacking inherent security at the same time. Mobile applications and systems have multiple vulnerabilities. Few companies are adequately measuring up the demands of new security standards in response to a new ubiquitous computing paradigm. Interconnectivity-related Security Concerns

9 The Concept of Network Perimeter Is Now Blurred

10 Analogy: Cyberwarfare in the Past

11 Analogy: Modern Cyberwarfare

12 Insider threats stats 2016 IBM Cyber Security Intelligence Index … “Of all responsible for security attacks” 60% Insiders 44.5% Malicious Insiders 15.5% Inadvertent Insiders 2016 Vormetric Data Threat Report … “Which IT insiders pose the greatest risks?” 58% Privileged user accounts 45% Executive management accounts

13 Insider threats outrank external attacks already today. Insider threats are becoming more difficult to deal with. A security focus will be set on establishing proper control over user activities inside corporate networks. Insider Threats Handling Will Become a Priority

14 Analogy: Cyberwarfare in the Cloud

15 Cloud Security Survey Knowing who does what, when and where in the cloud provides security guarantees for 71% of enterprises. 69% 65% www.netwrix.com/go/cloudsurvey2015 Security and loss of physical control over data Cloud technology concerns Unauthorized Access Cloud security concerns Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure Cloud deployment

16 Sample Data Breaches That Could Have Been Prevented

17 Data Breaches of 2015

18 Data Breach Case Study The United States Office of Personnel Management Announcement:June 2015 Start:March 2014 or earlier Affected:21,5 million people What leaked:social security numbers, names, dates and places of birth, addresses and other Hacking method:attackers had gained valid user credentials, likely through social engineering. State involvement:linked to Chinese hackers / Chinese government

19 Data Breach Case Study Experian Announcement:September 2015 Start:September 2013 or earlier Affected:15 million people What leaked:names, addresses, birthdates, social security numbers and ID numbers Hacking method:investigation is ongoing (presumably identity theft through phishing.)

20 How Auditing Can Solidify Your IT Security Strategy

21 The Challenge Lack of visibility into insider activity increases the risk of data breaches because IT departments are unable to spot malicious activity before data is compromised.

22 IT Auditing Is the Answer IT auditing delivers visibility into what’s happening in IT environments. Access to sensitive data Abnormal user activity Privilege abuse Changes to critical configurations Data exfiltration

23 What We Do? Netwrix Auditor A visibility and governance platform that enables control over changes, configurations, and access in hybrid cloud IT environments by providing security analytics to detect anomalies in user behavior and investigate threat pattern before a data breach occurs.

24 Netwrix Auditor Applications Netwrix Auditor for Active Directory Netwrix Auditor for Windows File Servers Netwrix Auditor for Windows Server Netwrix Auditor for VMware Netwrix Auditor for Exchange Netwrix Auditor for SQL Server Netwrix Auditor for SharePoint Netwrix Auditor for Office 365 Netwrix Auditor for NetApp Netwrix Auditor for EMC

25 Netwrix Auditor Benefits Relieves IT departments of manual crawling through weeks of log data to get the information about who changed what, when and where and who has access to what. Detect Data Security Threats – On Premises and in the Cloud Pass Compliance Audits with Less Effort and Expense Increase the Productivity of Security and Operations Teams Bridges the visibility gap by delivering security analytics about critical changes, state of configurations and data access in hybrid cloud IT environments and enables investigation of suspicious user behavior. Provides the evidence required to prove that your organization’s IT security program adheres to PCI DSS, HIPAA, HITECH, SOX, FISMA/NIST800-53, COBIT, ISO/IEC 27001 and other standards.
