9 9 Network virtualization Since 2004 LTM functionality Virtual servers, SNAT, VLANs, one:many Link aggregation Rate shaping Policies

10 10 Hardware virtualization Virtual Machines Servers Physical Server Servers Virtual Machines Automatic addition of power No need to overprovision Fixed and predictable OpEx Servers Physical Server

11 11 Storage virtualization Decouples access from physical file location Presents a Global Namespace view of the data a federation of the underlying file systems Masks changes to underlying storage systems from users and applications Automates common storage management tasks Migration Storage Tiering Load Balancing These tasks now take place without affecting access to the file data or requiring client re-configuration

26 26 Security s Gaping Hole 64% of the 10 million security incidents tracked targeted port 80. Information Week DATA

27 27 Web Application Security! Noncompliant Information! Infrastructural Intelligence Buffer Overflow Cross-Site Scripting SQL/OS Injection Cookie Poisoning Hidden-Field Manipulation Parameter Tampering Perimeter Security Is Strong PORT 80 PORT 443 But Is Open to Web Traffic! Forced Access to Information Attacks Now Look To Exploit Application Vulnerabilities High Information Density = High Value Attack

28 28 Why Are Web Applications Vulnerable? New code written to best-practice methodology, but not tested properly New type of attack not protected by current methodology New code written in a hurry due to business pressures Code written by third parties; badly documented, poorly tested third party not available Flaws in third party infrastructure elements Developers focused on funcionality

29 29 Application Security with a WAF! Unauthorised Access And Stops Bad Requests! Noncompliant Information Browser! Unauthorised Access WAF Allows Legitimate Requests! Infrastructural Intelligence Bi-directional: Inbound: protection from generalised & targeted attacks Outbound: content scrubbing & application cloaking Application content & context aware High performance, low latency, high availability, high security Policy-based full proxy with deep inspection & Java support Positive security augmenting negative security Central point of application security enforcement

30 30 Application Security with a WAF Intelligent Decisions Allow Only Good Application Behaviour; Positive Security Browser Definition of Good and Bad Behaviour

31 31 Negative vs. Positive Security Model Negative Security Model Lock Known Attacks Everything else is Allowed Patches implementation is quick and easy (Protection against Day Zero Attacks) Positive Security Model (Automatic) Analysis of Web Application Allow wanted Transactions Everything else is Denied Implicit Security against New, yet Unknown Attacks (Day Zero Attacks)

32 Support of dynamic values 32

33 33 Example: SAP Application Protect the session information in the URI Protect dynamic parameter names and values &Tdokfilter_subdok_dokstrukturK2_Y =F

34 34 Selective Application Flow Enforcement! ALLOWED Username From Acc. $ Amount Should this be a violation? The user may have bookmarked the page! Unnecessarily enforcing flow can lead to false positives.? Password! VIOLATION To Acc.! VIOLATION Transfer This part of the site is a financial transaction that requires authentication; we should enforce strict flow and parameter validation

35 35 XML Firewall Well formatted validation Schema/WSDL validation Methods selection Attack signatures for XML platforms Backend Parser protection XML islands application protection Full request Logging

36 36 Flexible Deployment Options Tighter Security Posture Typical standard starting point OBJECT FLOWS PARAMETER VALUES PARAMETER NAMES OBJECT NAMES OBJECT TYPES POLICY TIGHTENING SUGGESTIONS Policy-Building Tools Trusted IP Learning Live Traffic Learning Crawler Negative RegEx Template

37 37 Flexible Policy Granularity Generic Policies - Policy per object type Low number of policies Quick to implement Requires little change management Can t take application flow into account Optimum policy is often a hybrid Specific Policies Policy per object High number of policies More time to implement Requires change management policy Can enforce application flow Tightest possible security Protects dynamic values

38 Traditional Security Doesn t Protect Web Applications Looking at the wrong thing in the wrong place 38 Known Web Worms Unknown Web Worms Known Web Vulnerabilities Unknown Web Vulnerabilities Illegal Access to Web-server files Forceful Browsing File/Directory Enumerations Buffer Overflow Cross-Site Scripting SQL/OS Injection Cookie Poisoning Hidden-Field Manipulation Parameter Tampering Application Firewall Network Firewall Present Present Present Present Present Present Present Present Present Present X X X IPS Present Present Present Present Present Present Present Present Present Present X X X
