Introducing the Cyber Threat Hunting

Accelerated Training

Cyber threat hunting is a proactive, iterative, and human-centered process of finding cyber threats that are inside a network that hasn’t been caught by existing security controls. It is now possible for attackers to stay inside a network for a long time and get information and move around without anyone noticing. It’s at this point that Threat Hunting comes in to help.

Threat hunting is based on the concept of “Assumed Breach “. It helps businesses answer questions like: How do we know when we’ve been breached? What is the evidence we have for this?  And how do we use this information to improve our security?”

Using the knowledge or intelligence gained through Threat Intelligence, threat hunters can hunt down the advisories within the network and locate Indication of compromised (IoC).

SEC303: Cybersecurity Simplified for Non-Technical Users

 

Course Duration: 2 Days

Cybersecurity is a major concern for everyone, but it doesn’t have to be complicated

Course Introduction

This training is designed to simplify cybersecurity for non-techies. It looks at cybersecurity from a user’s perspective.  It will teach you how to protect your data on any device from anything that could breach digital security and privacy when communicating on the Internet. It is about creating and maintaining basic digital hygiene. The focus is on the actions you could take today to greatly improve your cybersecurity and protect yourself, family and business.

At the end of the training, you will understand security principles, and how to use them to implement simple security hygiene that would result in huge benefits to your digital security.

For the ease of understanding, we have treated Cybersecurity from the user’s perspectives by answering the simple question. What can I do to be safe online and manage my privacy?  The answer to this question can be divided into four main areas of cybersecurity, and privacy. These are

  • Device security
  • User account security
  • Communication security
  • Privacy

The course will teach you several security principles, and how to implement them in real life. Finally, you will get written plan to follow. The subjects covered include how to strongly improve your security by easily implementing the following:

Training Content

Password Management

Each user must manage access to tens, if not hundreds of websites today. It can be confusing and hard to manage password due to the number of passwords that need to be managed. As a result, passwords are repeatedly used on multiple sites. In cybersecurity, this is the first problem that needs to be solved. In this section you will learn how to manage all your account in a central location and properly manage your account credentials in a secure way.

Two factor authentication (2FA)

Using password only is not the strongest form of authentication. Therefore, the user of two factor Authentication (2FA) is highly encouraged. Although, this will increase your security, it creates a new challenge of managing these 2FA codes. So, it is important to know how to manage and backup these 2FA system.

Disk encryption

Disk encryption is not for spies or criminals who have something to hide. Encryption is a legitimate cybersecurity controls which can help you increase security whether you have something to hide or not. It can also help in improving your privacy by protecting confidential information on your computer.

However, encryption is not widely used by users due to the perseived complexity. Your emails, payment information, and other types of information can be protected using different forms of encryption that are easy to use. This section will teach you the types of encryptions that are available to you as part of your security measures for cybersecurity and how to implement them correctly.

System security

Proper security measures should begin with the system. You will learn to secure your system by implementing good Operating Systems security. Setup endpoint security to detect and stop possible intrusion into your system.

Browser security

The browser has become the major tool we use daily. As such, the browser is on the firing line daily from phishing attack, malware, and hackers who tries to make use of misconfigurations or bugs in the browsers to gain access to the system. It is important to choose a secure browser, but also learn to maintain it regularly. Learn to use security extensions that greatly improve your security on the internet.

Mobile security

Mobile phones are used today for everything, from simple telephone calls, and chat to Internet banking. A compromised phone is a compromise of your life. Learning to secure your phone and maintaining security all the time is a highly recommended kills to have.

Backup security

With the proliferation of phishing and ransomware attack, many people are starting to learn about the importance of good backup system. However, it is still very difficult for non-technical people to implement a backup system that could resist a ransomware attack. The goal of this section is to teach you how to implement a good backup system that could mitigate a ransomware attack.

Lock up social media

Social media is a major source of risk to cybersecurity, and online safety. Posting of too many personal information increase your exposing to cybercrime. The chance that a successful phishing attack would work on you partly depends how much information Cyber criminals can learn about you. Many of the information They need can be found on your social media posts and profiles. It is very important to learn how to secure your social media profile and stay safe online.

Email security

Email is still a major way of communicating. However, many of the old problems of email, such as spam, and phishing are still there. Although, there are lots of technologies to deal with these problems, they are not often implemented. As a result, most people are still using email unsecurely.  This section will teach you the types of security available to you to secure your email communications, and how to implement them.

Virtual Private Network (VPN) on all devices

Using a VPN will add a layer of protection to your Internet traffic, and could stop bad actors from seeing your private information. Learn to setup, and use VPN daily because it is designed to provide two things. Privacy of your communication, and confidentiality.

  • This solution provides users the ability to access a private network even though they are not physically connected to it.
  • Allow remote employees access corporate resources without compromising security and prevent information leakage.
  • Improve your online privacy on the Internet to hide web traffic from networks that are not trusted. Hide your Internet Protocol (IP) address and encrypts the data that you send over the Internet while you are connected to a VPN.
  • Provide security when you access public Wi-Fi networks at airports, cafes or hotels. Hackers often use public network to attack users of those networks.

Wi-Fi security

Wi-Fi is everywhere. Hackers are also out there to attack you on a Wi-Fi. There are many ways you can secure your Wi-Fi connection at home and when under way. This section will teach you the types of attacks that Wi-Fi networks are vulnerable to, and how to protect against them.

Network segmentation

No matter how small a network is everyone, and every device on the network are exposed to each other. If you let other people access your Wi-Fi network once, they will always have access anytime they are in the area unless you change the Wi-Fi password. Once they have access, they can also access other devices on your network even when you are not at home. This is one reason you would want to divide your network into several partitions or security zones so you can place devices in separate security zones depending on the security requirement.

Internet Safety for all

In this section you will learn how to prevent websites from tracking your every move, and how to protect everyone in your household, or your business.

  • Implement strong privacy on your browsers.
  • Setup strong traffic filtering system for the entire family and control it on your routers.
  • In this section you will learn how to use free tools to setup DNS filtering on your home or small business network to protect your privacy and reduce phishing attack and other malicious activities online.
  • Learn how to set up DNS redirection to stop all malicious site request.

IoT security

If you have security cameras, baby monitoring, smart TV’s and other smart devices then you have IoT devices. These devices are not only connected to the Internet but are constantly exposing your privacy to the internet daily. Many of these devices are not secured because there is no security inbuilt and those with security inbuilt are not properly configured. Learn about simple steps to take to secure your IoT devices and be one step ahead of the attackers.

There are different types of security measures you could implement to prevent any uninvited guests from finding you and your family. This section will give you simple steps to secure your smart gizmos or gadgets from being hacked into. It will also show you how to setup strong security measures to protect you, and your family.

Who Should Attend?

If you are a non-technical user who wants to protect yourself from hackers, this training is for you! You don’t need any prior knowledge or experience with cybersecurity to take this course. It’s designed specifically for non-technical users who want an easy way to learn the basics of cybersecurity as quickly as possible.

A comprehensive training on how to prepare your organization to deal with the effect of a ransomware attack.

About Course SEC302  Preparing, Detecting and Responding to Ransomware Attack (4 Days) 

Ransomware is the single most serious cyber threat that organizations face today. The financial implications of cybercriminal acts are substantial, as are the monetary damages. Ransomware groups are demanding and receiving millions of dollars in ransom payments. Organizations that are unable to pay the ransom costs are left in the dark. Even if they have paid, they may still have to cope with the consequences of a data breach.

Regardless of the hazards provided by various threat actors, Ransomware may be successfully managed, and the risks of a successful assault are substantially decreased.

This four-day jam-packed technical hands-on training is intended to assist professionals understand the problem of ransomware, what they can do to mitigate it, and how they can leverage current tools and resources to prepare for an attack.

Intellfence-Cybersecurity Awareness Training Module

The Training Expectations:

Participants will be able to assess the risk posed by ransomware threat actors to their company and establish an incident response strategy to reduce the impact of an attack. The applicant will understand what mitigations to implement and how to implement them. Furthermore, each participant will be very familiar with the toolkits used by the attackers and can identify and neutralizing them.  Assembling their own tools to access, monitor, respond to, and restore operations when they are attacked.

Day 1: Introduction to Ransomware

Day one is an introduction to ransomware and a thorough overview of the various ransomware groups and their tactics. We look at the tooling this group uses and how effective they are. This will help prepare the students for the various practical exercises that will take place in the next three days.  

On the last day of training, we will go through various ransomware scenarios and how to deal with them technically. We’ll also take a look at some common mistakes that lead to organizations’ data being encrypted by these malicious programs.

Learn about Human Operated Ransomware (HumOR) and why it works so well. What are the points of entrance into your organization? How does this play a role in ransomware attacks?

Learn about Human Operated Ransomware (HumOR) and why it is so effective. We will show you the entry points into your organization for ransomware. Learn about the various types of malware and tools used by ransomware threat actors and how to detect them. What are the different strategies for protecting your organization’s data from being exfiltrated by these malicious actors?

Hackers have many different tools that they use to gain access and exfiltrate data from their networks. The most common types of attacks are phishing, malware (including ransomware), attacking a vulnerable system such as unpatched systems or those with open ports, social engineering, and brute force login attempts.

Day 2: Preparing to Respond to Ransomware

The first day includes an introduction to ransomware as well as a comprehensive discussion of the main ransomware organizations and their methods. We shall examine the tools that these organizations use and how effective they are. This will assist students in preparing for the numerous practical activities that will take place over the next three days.

We will go through numerous ransomware situations and how to deal with them technically. We will also look at some of the most prevalent errors that cause businesses’ data to be encrypted by malicious applications.

Hackers employ a variety of methods to gain access to and exfiltrate data from networks. Phishing, malware (including ransomware), targeting a weak system such as an unpatched system or one with unprotected ports, social engineering, and brute force login attempts are the most prevalent forms of assaults. Learn about the many types of malware and tools used by ransomware threat actors, as well as how to spot them. What are the various techniques for preventing dangerous applications from infecting your organization’s data?

We will investigate an integrated solution that includes anti-malware, sandboxing, and other controls aimed at controlling ransomware and other threats. We will explore an integrated solution that incorporates anti-malware, sandboxing, and other controls focused on containing ransomware and other malware. The students will learn how to:

  • Implement email encryption/digital signature to stop the impersonation of company staffs.
  • Have solutions in place to detect and eliminate potential attack via email.

Day 3: Monitor and Detect Ransomware Attacks

Threat actors using ransomware are not particularly covert in their activities. In a Human Operated Ransomware, a threat actor infiltrates the network and snoops about for weeks or months, learning everything it can about the organization and its network. They then begin exfiltrating data from the network before beginning data encryption. This type of behavior is highly loud, and it may be identified with adequate network monitoring and appropriate remedial action.

The second day is devoted to teaching students how to build up a system and network monitoring capabilities for detecting ransomware assaults in real time. The students will learn how to recognize attack signatures and how to respond while under assault.

Learn how to utilize network traffic capturing tools to collect and read network traffic and search for ransomware signatures.

Discover how to use SIEM, UEBA, and SOAR technologies to log, track, monitor, and respond to ransomware attacks.

Day 4: Respond, clean up and Restore after a Ransomware Attack

What should you do in the event of an attack? An assault consists of several phases. It is critical to take the appropriate action at every given stage to halt the invader. The student will learn how to execute the response that was planned during the preparation phase. The main steps are as follows:

  • Respond to the attack and end it.
  • Restore or rebuild systems from their present configuration, depending on how far the infection process has progressed.

Stop phishing & ransomware-aanval

 

Cursusduur: 2 dagen

Leer hoe u phishing en ransomware kunt stoppen en herstellen van een aanval

Cursus Introductie

Ransomware is niet langer een bedreiging, maar eerder een duidelijk en aanwezig risico voor bedrijven van elke omvang. Ransomware-aanvallen zijn de afgelopen twee jaar toegenomen. Het gevraagde losgeld is ook gestegen. Veel grote organisaties met geavanceerde IT-infrastructuur en een aanzienlijk aantal geschoold beveiligingspersoneel zijn ook geïnfiltreerd en gedwongen om miljoenen dollars/euro’s losgeld te betalen.

Dit toont aan dat, ongeacht hoe robuust uw IT-infrastructuur is, ransomware op iedereen of elke organisatie kan worden gericht. De belangrijkste redenen hiervoor zijn dat de meeste aanvallen phishing gebruiken om de payload binnen organisaties te krijgen en iedere organisatie gebruikt e-mail.

Deze tweedaagse diepgaande training is bedoeld om organisaties helpen in te zien met informatie over ransomware en te helpen bij de voorbereiding op een ransomware-aanval. Het zal organisaties kunnen helpen om te weten wat ze moeten doen als ze worden aangevallen en correct en snel reageren op de aanval.

Deze cursus gaat verder dan het standaard advies dat vaak aan organisaties wordt gegeven; het is bedoeld om beheerders en beveiligingsingenieurs te leren hoe ze meer bescherming kunnen creëren door de vele aanvalsroutes te onderzoeken en te leren hoe ze het risico van elk kunnen verminderen.

Course Duration: 2 days

Learn How To Stop Phishing & Ransomware And Recover From Attack.

Course Introduction

Ransomware is no longer a threat, but rather a clear and present risk to businesses of all sizes. Ransomware assaults have increased in the last two years. The ransom requested has risen as well. Many major organizations with sophisticated IT infrastructure and a significant number of skilled security personnel have also been infiltrated and forced to pay millions of dollars in ransom.

This demonstrates that, regardless of how robust your IT infrastructure is, ransomware can be directed at anybody or any organization. The major reasons for this are that most attacks employ phishing to get the payload inside organizations, and every organization uses email.

This two-day in-depth course is intended to educate organizations with information on ransomware and to assist them in preparing for a ransomware assault. It will assist organizations in knowing what to do when they are attacked and responding correctly and quickly to the assault.

This course goes beyond the standard advice given to organizations; it is intended to teach administrators and security engineers how to create greater protection by examining the many attack routes and learning how to reduce the risk provided by each.
