Description..
No organization can fight back against cyber attacks if their security and system administration staff does not know how the most current attacks are launched and the technical details that allow the attacks to be blocked. That's why SANS Security 504, Hacker Techniques, Exploits and Incident Handling is SANS second most popular course. What is not well known, SANS Hacker Techniques course is *much* better than courses offered by other organizations, because SANS teaches you not only how to use the attack tools (as others do), but also how to stop the attacks (as others fail to do). By helping you understand attackers' tactics and strategies in detail, giving you hands-on experience in finding vulnerabilities and discovering intrusions, and equipping you with a comprehensive incident handling plan, the in-depth information in Security 504 helps you turn the tables on computer attackers.
Due to the relationship with SANS and ISSA Anthony Giandomenico a SANS Mentor will deliver a 1 hour subset of the SANS Security 504, Hacker Techniques, Exploits and Incident Handling to the ISSA Members. The chosen topics will be the following:
Buffer Overflows
Worms
Anthony Giandomenico will go in-depth in describing the above attacks, provide real world examples and of course identification/mitigation echniques.

Topic - Network Behavior Analysis
Network Behavior Analysis (NBA) is a new technology used for identifying security and network anomalies throughout an enterprise. NBA involves capturing flow information from existing Network Routers and Switches and using the information to alert on security anomalies and network performance. As such, it can serve multiple roles within an enterprise. Besides providing security information, it can also act as a Network Performance Monitor, tracking "who is talking to who", and where the abnormal spikes are. It can also help with Network and Server optimization (both virtual and real). It can also be used for Network and Security optimizationIn today's "cost-cutting" environment, it can serve multiple purposes. It can be used with or in place of IDS's for security compliance.

Abstract:
-----------------------
In recent years, enterprise single sign-on (ESSO) has emerged as an easy, smart and affordable way for organizations of all types and sizes to strengthen IT security while supporting user productivity. With the advent of more stringent government regulations, organizations are seeking ways to further strengthen IT security by incorporating stronger passwords and in many cases an additional form of authentication, such as a security card or token or even finger biometrics.
The idea behind using an additional factor beyond a password provides strong authentication so that each computer on an organization's network has a stronger "front door" against entry by unauthorized users. However, the use of these increased security measures has an impact across the organization, both on all computer users as well as the helpdesk staff who need to support these users. ESSO alleviates the inconvenience not only of a multiplicity of stronger passwords to access applications, but also integrates with strong authentication to ensure that every "front door" in the organization is as secure as possible.
But which authentication option is right for you and your organization? And how easily can it be integrated with your ESSO solution? These are just two of the many questions to consider as you evaluate strong authentication choices. This topic explores these questions and addresses how organizations can achieve strong authentication with ESSO -- easily and affordably -- to increase their security levels dramatically without creating inconvenience for either IT staff or end users.

How secure is your new iPhone / Palm or Blackberry?
Personal communications devices such as iPhones and Blackberries have become ubiquitous in both the commercial and personal arenas. As these devices have become more popular, they have also become more powerful and heavily integrated into many people's lives. However, their adoption has often occured faster than the security awareness required to operate these devices in a safe and secure manner. This presentation will discuss some of the unique and unusual security challenges these devices pose to corporate environments and strategies for resolving them while continuing to benefit from their ever-increasing capabilities.
