Where Should I Be in 2006?

I just updated my events site at TaoSecurity. I keep track of speaking engagements there. For example, I will speak at DoD Cybercrime, SchmooCon 2006, RSA Conference 2006, the 2006 Rocky Mountain Information Security Conference, and the 2006 Computer and Enterprise Investigations Conference.

I will submit tutorial proposals for USENIX 2006 and USENIX Security 2006, and Black Hat USA Training 2006.

What conferences do you attend? Do you think I should try to speak there? Based on your knowledge of my interests (through this blog), what do you think I should discuss? Should I speak to your company or organization? At the moment I have several private Network Security Operations classes on tap for 2006, and my schedule for the first half of the year is already filling.

I appreciate your feedback!

I'd love to see you live, but unfortunately, I'm situated "across the pond" :)

You don't happen to have video recordings of any of your appearances?

Thanks for a great blog, and great books.. I'm looking forward to reading Extrusion Detection (which is on my shelf)..

Check out Infosecurity Europe, www.infosec.co.uk, great speakers and large expo. I guess many from this side of "the pond" would come to see you live :)

Well if you're going to be at blackhat, why not stick around for defcon. I've noticed quite an influx of more professionals speaking there. Can't imagine there being much pay involved but maybe you could make that up in book sales. =)

Zeek in Action Videos

Image
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
