Bejtlich Speaking at RSA Conference 2006

My proposal to speak at the RSA Conference 2006 was accepted out of 1500+ submissions. I will present in San Jose, CA on Tuesday, 14 February 2006 from 1735 to 1825. The subject is Traffic-Centric Incident Response and Forensics.

Why are these conferences so damn expensive? Their academic pass is $595! Are there any unofficial ways to get in?

I would not have attended if I didn't get a free pass for speaking. These are not intended for people paying their own way. As an independent business owner, I would not have paid to send myself there. As it is I had to burn United miles and Marriott reward points to finance my airfare and hotel room! :)

I hope it is not going to be too different from what you are presenting at ShmooCom ... I also am one that skips the RSA conference even though the company will send me to any one conference a year I choose.

ShmooCon will be centered around a Sguil demo. RSA will be more about theory, techniques, and tools for network IR and forensics.

Zeek in Action Videos

This is a quick note to point blog readers to my Zeek in Action YouTube video series for the Zeek network security monitoring project .  Each video addresses a topic that I think might be of interest to people trying to understand their network using Zeek and adjacent tools and approaches, like Suricata, Wireshark, and so on.  I am especially pleased with Video 6 on monitoring wireless networks . It took me several weeks to research material for this video. I had to buy new hardware and experiment with a Linux distro that I had not used before -- Parrot .  Please like and subscribe, and let me know if there is a topic you think might make a good video.

MITRE ATT&CK Tactics Are Not Tactics

Just what are "tactics"? Introduction MITRE ATT&CK  is a great resource, but something about it has bothered me since I first heard about it several years ago. It's a minor point, but I wanted to document it in case it confuses anyone else. The MITRE ATT&CK Design and Philosophy document from March 2020 says the following: At a high-level, ATT&CK is a behavioral model that consists of the following core components: • Tactics, denoting short-term, tactical adversary goals during an attack; • Techniques, describing the means by which adversaries achieve tactical goals; • Sub-techniques, describing more specific means by which adversaries achieve tactical goals at a lower level than techniques; and • Documented adversary usage of techniques, their procedures, and other metadata. My concern is with MITRE's definition of "tactics" as "short-term, tactical adversary goals during an attack," which is oddly recursive. The key word in the tacti...
