Redesigned TaoSecurity Web Site

I was so motivated by my TaoSecurity Blog redesign that I decided to revamp TaoSecurity.com too. I used a template from Open Source Web Design created by Andreas Viklund. Now that the site is up I will spend some time fixing the problems found by the validator. When I have some free time I will work on Bejtlich.net next. Remember, I am a security guy -- not a Webmaster.

I like the new design, nice job. But, I miss the wide open space, it was easier to read.

Much, MUCH improved. Great job Richard. Like you I am not a web designer. Sites like OSWD and tools like Drupal are really making a difference on how small businesses and individuals can communicate. Your new Taosecurity.com site is indistinguishable from something put together by a professional web design firm.

Much better. If you can't get a graphics artist, get the next best thing, a template created by a graphics artist. Following 4 basic principles of GA (Contrast, Repetition, Alignment, and Proximity) gives it a much cleaner and professional look.

Nice design. Very clean and modern. However i have to agree with the other "Anonymous" a few posts up and say I miss the wide design the old one had. Most of your useful and informative articles were much easier to read in that format. TaoSecurity.com however looks great.

Tell you what -- if someone can find a template that better accommodates a wide design, I'll check it out. I would probably like it too.

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

  I've completed the TaoSecurity Blog book series . The new book is  The Best of TaoSecurity Blog, Volume 4: Beyond the Blog with Articles, Testimony, and Scholarship .  It's available now for Kindle , and I'm working on the print edition.  I'm running a 50% off promo on Volumes 1-3 on Kindle through midnight 20 April.

Volume 4 offers early white papers that Mr. Bejtlich wrote as a network defender, either for technical or pol
