TaoSecurity and USENIX Special Event

Are you attending days one and two of TCP/IP Weapons School at the USENIX LISA 2006 conference on 3 and 4 December, 2006? Do you want to do something with Ethereal/Wireshark besides inspecting normal traffic? Do you want to learn how networks can be abused and subverted, while analyzing the attacks methods and packets that make it happen? Are you ready for technical, packet-centric training that really matters?

If your answer to any of these questions is yes, join Richard Bejtlich for TCP/IP Weapons School Part 2 (TWS2), after USENIX LISA 2006, on 9 and 10 December 2006. TWS2 will be held at the Wardman Park Hotel, after LISA, in the same facility. It's the perfect way to finish LISA without leaving the hotel.

Days 1 and 2 of TCP/IP Weapons School, part of the official USENIX LISA Training Program, cover layers 1-3 of the TCP/IP stack. TWS2 is a separate but supported event, where day 3 addresses layer 4 and day 4 discusses layers 5-7. This training is unique and in-depth!

Registration fees are as follows. The first price column is for Non-LISA attendees. The second is for LISA attendees.

Register by 13 October 2006 $995/student $795/student (20% off)
Register by 10 November 2006 $1095/student $875/student (20% off)
Register after 10 November 2006 $1195/student $955/student (20% off)

To register for TWS2, please complete the registration form and submit it to TaoSecurity using one of the methods listed on the form.

I've also prepared a flyer to show your manager!

Don't forget to register for USENIX LISA 2006 before 10 November 2006 for the best deal. I will also teach Network Security Monitoring with Open Source Tools on 8 December 2006, right before I teach TWS2.

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
