1 End Point Security How to Secure Your Environment

2 Learning Objectives Define Endpoint Security Describe most common endpoints of data leakage Identify most common security gaps Preview solutions to bridge these security gaps Define on-going detective controls to help protect from the latest vulnerabilities -2-

3 Agenda Endpoint and Endpoint Security Common Security Threats Mobile Devices Platforms Applications Risks Benefits Stakeholders and their Objectives Management Challenges Personal Device Security Checklist Assurance Considerations for Endpoint Devices Data Protection Lifecycle and Incident Response Preparedness Tips for Protecting Mobile Data -3-

4 What are Endpoints? Endpoints are any nodes or devices which connect or access network services including: Stationary Workstations Printers Mobile Laptops Telephones Smart Phones Tablet Computers Portable Digital Assistants or PDAs USBs Digital Cameras RFIDs Infrared-enabled devices such as printers and smart cards Etc.. -4-

5 What is Endpoint Security? According to Wikipedia Concept that assumes each device is responsible for its own security Wikipedia ( / iki/e d i t it Securing the data at the Endpoint is Endpoint Security Endpoint Security -5-

6 Common Endpoint Security Threat Action Categories Malware any software or code developed for the purpose of compromising or harming information assets without the owner s informed consent Hacking all attempts to intentionally access or harm information assets without (or in excess of) authorization by thwarting logical security mechanisms Social tactics employing deception, manipulation, intimidation, etc. to exploit the human element, or users, of information assets Misuse using organizational resources or privileges in a manner contrary to that which was intended Physical human-driven threats that employ physical actions and/or require physical proximity Error anything done (or left undone) incorrectly or inadvertently Environmental natural hazards (floods, earthquakes..) and infrastructure related (power failures, pipe leaks..) -6-

7 Common Endpoint Threat Action Categories % Breaches /Records Verizon Business 2010 Data Breach Report -7-

8 Malware Will Be A Top Threat For Years To Come Malware is evolving constantly 2010 was a banner year Operation Aurora Zeus Stuxnet Organized crime is inventing i new approaches on a regular basis Virus; spyware; trojans and now APTs advanced persistent threats Organizations need to stop chasing the malware flavor of the month Plan and implement a security strategy t to strengthen th fundamental defense DNA Build an attack or threat tolerant security architecture -8-

9 Mobile Devices as Endpoints -9-

10 Are Employees Changing g the Speed of Business? -10-

11 Mobile Application Adoption Will See Tremendous Growth in

12 Unique Qualities of Mobile Endpoints and Associated Risks Unique Qualities Fits in a pocket Stripped-down d operating systems Users install their own applications Hardware vendors control the security Risks Pocket-ability increases the threat of Device being lost Device more prone to being stolen Application deployment by non-company controlled sources does not give IT much assurance Legal uncertainties about data ownership Not all third party applications are trustworthy Diversity of devices makes IT support more complex and expensive Device management options are still maturing -12-

13 Benefits of Mobile Devices and Applications -13-

14 Enterprise Stakeholders Have Differing Objectives and Needs End Users Convenient and reliable access to applications and DATA Not fully aware of security risks to corporate data Line of Business Leaders Improved productivity and collaboration Highest priority is competitive advantage and agility Auditors Right users have the appropriate level of access Controls are effective to manage security, compliance and other risks IT Leaders Protect the organization s data Security and compliance are sustained at an optimal cost to the organization -14-

15 Management Challenges Questions to Consider What devices are on the network? Routers and Switches Wired and wireless access points Mobile endpoint devices What end users are on the network? Employees and contractors Devices employee owned and/or corporate owned Business partners and guests Are end users in compliance with company policies? Both pre-connection and post-connection to network Access methods and privileges On-going monitoring What is the enterprise-wide visibility? Devices, end users and events/incidents Is personal data separated from corporate data? Encrypted corporate data with appropriate password controls? -15-

16 Personal Mobile Device Security Checklist Unauthorized users Strong password Enforced thru centralized policies i Personal device lost or stolen Freeze the data on the device, if misplaced Remote wipe of the data, if completely lost Removal of corporate data for a user leaving the company Segregate personal data and corporate data Wipe corporate data without touching the personal data Keep confidential data secure Encrypt data Storage Transmission -16-

17 Assurance Considerations for Endpoint Devices Network Access Controls and Architecture Policies and Procedures and Employee Awareness Vulnerability Management Configuration Management -17-

18 Network Access Controls and Architecture Network Architecture Sandbox = Segregated network that has limited (or no) connectivity to the internal network Primary Internet connection for mobile devices is wireless Proper access control lists (ACLs) must exist to restrict traffic and exposure Vendor or guest networks via wireless Network Access Controls (NAC) Ability to restrict endpoints from entering a network without authorization Mobile device authentication occurs against an authoritative source -18-

19 Policies and Procedures Employee agreements should clearly define ownership of device and data where applicable End user policies should outline requirements for mobile device owners Appropriately securing the security PIN Physical security of device while off-site Notification for device loss (Awareness Training) Guidelines for personal use Internal IT support and response procedures Provisioning and de-provisioning of devices Support of specific platforms and devices Standard configurations Procedures for handling lost or stolen units -19-

20 Vulnerability Management Anti-Virus controls and Endpoint Security All devices must be protected from malware Malware for mobile devices WILL become more prevalent End point protection is becoming available Patch management Devices must be patched per company policy Forced updates difficult due to ownership issues and lack of centralized deployment capabilities Detective controls (intrusion detection/prevention) Network activity monitoring for malicious traffic on mobile subnets Vulnerability scanning Scanning and signatures are relatively immature -20-

21 Configuration Management Configuration of endpoint devices comes from a centralized authoritative server Management solution server controls reviewed Numerous software solutions are beginning to support modern platforms Threat Malicious application Unauthorized access to device Lost or stolen device Wireless communication Audit Response Encryption of critical device data PIN/password protection Remote device wipe Appropriate traffic encryption -21-

22 Data Protection Lifecycle and Incident Response Preparedness Identify Classify Protect Respond Data Protection ti Remediation Phases Data Identification & Mapping Data Classification & Labeling Program Development Data Protection Strategy Development (DLP, GRC, Program Dev) Incident Response Plan Analysis & Development Breach Response Preparedness -22-

23 Tips for Protecting Mobile Data Deploy encryption technology Laptops set the boot order and password in the BIOS Reset of passwords and training/education of employees Educate employees on the risks of public Wi-Fi networks Enable automatic patching Protect visual privacy Lock mobile devices Set up remote wipe for mobile devices -23-
