Amit Klein, CTO, Trusteer \n(watch video)\n
I will survey the evolution of attack techniques against online banking since the mid-2000s till today. This starts with keylogging malware, moves over to screenshooting malware, and finally gets to HTML injection malware (the \u201cMan in the Browser\u201d concept). I will then show several examples of the power of MitB attacks, especially when combined with social engineering, and how this can overcome many security measures such as two-factor authentication and transaction verification.\n

We all developed natural instincts when it comes to protecting our physical space. We all know to look to the sides before crossing the road, and we all have some capabilities to assess current risks and make decisions accordingly. However, when it comes to using our mobile devices in the cyber era, these instincts have not yet evolved. People and organizations are at risk, and do not have an understanding how to assess or mitigate them. On top of that, current protection solutions provide inadequate protection against these threats. The organizational need to support mobile devices for business related activity created a huge gap in securing the organization. Adi Sharabani's keynote will highlight some of these threats via a live demonstration of a mobile hacking activity. The audience will be able to opt in for the demo, reflecting how easy it is for a hacker to hack into remote devices.\n
\nSpeaker Bio \n
Mr. Adi Sharabani is a world-class security expert and the CEO of Skycure, a start-up that focuses on providing firewall solutions for mobile devices. Formerly, Adi led the security of IBM software products. He came to IBM through the Watchfire acquisition, a start-up company which was a pioneer in the field of application security.

Maty Siman, CTO, Checkmarx \n(watch video)\n
The flow of this talk is given by \u2013 you! Before this talk, we emailed the audience to provide us with their favorite WordPress plugins that they would like to test for security. In a live demo, we assess the security of the requested plugins. Previous similar trials that we performed on WordPress showed that 30% of the top 50 most downloaded plugins were vulnerable to common Web attacks. What will be the results of this experiment?\n
As we\u2019ll continue to show, assessing the security posture of a plugin is only the hacker\u2019s first step in mass attacks. As opposed to past mass SQL Injection attacks which leveraged tools such as SQLMap, these next wave of attacks do not focus on the site\u2019s platform or customized development code. Rather, these attacks leverage on the increasing popularity of CMS platforms such as WordPress and Joomla. The maturity, prevalence and market penetration of CMS platforms allow any marketing, sales or HR individual to easily set up their own fully-operational site. Accordingly, CMS apps are flourishing \u2013 and so are the vulnerabilities in these apps.\n

Reflected DOM Injection is a new attack vector first presented at the DefCon 21 conference in July. We will explain the technique and show a live demo where we use it to hide malicious code within popular and trusted websites. For those of you who are interested in RDI but couldn\u2019t make it to DefCon, we are bringing the talk to you!\n
The introduction of this session will briefly review the struggle between malicious websites and security products. We will explain the issues of hosting a malicious website and the techniques security vendors use in order to block them. \nWe will then present our new technique to avoid detection and proceed to explain all parts of it in-depth. A full demo of the attack from beginning to end will be included.\ncommon and known services published by popular websites will be used in order to dynamically construct an attack hosted for us by these services.\nFinally, we will add a layer of defense to our attack, and generate malicious code which will become practically invisible to dynamic analysis engines and thus evade most of today's security engines and technologies.\n

Server-Side Web Controls became popular components in modern web application frameworks.\nIn addition to the development benefits of these components provide, they are also protected using a variety of security mechanisms, including digital signatures, content access restrictions and even invisibility. \nHowever, developers that use these components improperly can expose the application to a variety of different attacks that can be executed despite, and sometimes due to the existence of security mechanisms. \nThe presentation will demonstrate several new methods that attackers can harness to bypass security mechanism, manipulate server control properties and identify, enumerate and activate events of dormant server web controls, in popular platforms such as ASP.Net, JSF and Mono.\n

ReFrameworker is a new exiting addition to the AppUse pentest VM which we just released at recent BlackHat USA, targeting Android applications. With ReFrameworker, we can manipulate Android applications to make our life as pentesters a lot more easier. Does the app you test insists to be used only for a particular IMEI or phone number? Or does it break on invalidated certificates when you try to SSL MitM it using a proxy? No problem! With ReFrameworker, you can just give a new behavior to any runtime method you'd like, like disabling verifications, controlling return values, and so on. Snooping on local SQL queries or encryption keys? ReFrameworker gives you a proxy for local variables so you can changes important or sensitive values on the fly.\nThe idea is that we'd built a new Android ROM for the sole purpose of pentesting Android apps, loaded with hooks at important places inside the Dalvik runtime. During this talk we'll witness the power of ReFrameworker, we'll learn how to use it, how it was implemented and how it can be extended.\n

In this work we have designed and developed a modification to the Android Content Providers that allows us to impose access restrictions on the sensitive data items they contain (such as contacts, calendar events) .\n
We have developed lightweight solution that is compatible with the current Android design (so it can be easily integrated with the current Android implementation) that creates separation between different types of sensitive data, also separating them from the non-sensitive information in Android content providers. We allow the device owner to view the data in a unified manner, while 3rd party applications will be allowed access only to content created by them or that they were granted permission to view.\n
User interaction is not required for the security decisions. Instead, we are defining trust relationship between the data and the applications, in which the owner of the data can delegate access permissions to the applications.\n
This approach will enable organization to store sensitive information on the device content providers, allow the user to easily access it from the organizational applications as well as from system applications while preventing its leakage through other 3rd party applications\nWhile developed for Android, the concept can be implemented on other mobile devices, such as iPhone and Windows Phone.\n

Renana Friedlich, Forensic Department Leader, Ernst and Young (Hacktics)\n
Most organizations are not aware of successful application-level attacks, until it's too late.\nApplication penetration tests don't provide information on attacks that ALREADY occurred, on attacks are CURRENTLY in progress, on failed attempts, or even on the actual impact.\nOrganizations usually rely on security products such as WAF and IDS to locate hacking incidents, but what about attacks that slipped pass the WAF?\nWhat about attacks with a pattern that the IDS did not recognize? What about organizations that implemented these products too late, or not at all?\nThat's where Web Application Proactive Forensics comes in - A collection of detailed methodologies for locating evidence of attacks that were performed and/or exploited, including attacks listed in OWASP testing guide, WASC and CWE.\n

Many contemporary websites are based on so-called \u201cUser Generated Content\u201d (aka UGC). Furthermore, many sites oriented around a community of users enable users to interact with each other, via the site. Sites like Wikipedia and StackOverflow allow users to freely edit pages visible to all users, popular discussion forums are based on continuous postings of content by users, and social networks such as Facebook encourage users to constantly add their own rich data to the site for others\u2019 consumption. \n
Aside from the usual web attacks common to all user input on websites, such as XSS and SQL Injection, there are some forms of attacks or abuse that are specific to sites such as these. Some of them are purely technical, some of them are social in nature and just take advantage of the available technology. These are often exacerbated by the scope and huge amount of traffic to these sites, and take advantage of the network effect. \n
The talk will be based in a large part on the speaker\u2019s experience on the Stack Exchange network of sites, but will also compare to the models prevalent on other popular sites. We will discuss some of the aspects particular to these platforms, and show how even the more \u201cboring\u201d of these attacks can sometimes be interesting depending on the situation. We will also see some of the stranger happenings that occur on a large site. Finally, we will discuss and compare some of the different models that these huge websites use to limit the damage. \nWe will of course focus on what is both these sites\u2019 biggest weakness, and greatest strength - the community. \n

DDoS attacks exploit vulnerabilities in different protocol stack layers, from the application layer and downward. These attacks undermine the availability of various services, some of which transcend the local interest of the compromised organization, bearing broader consequences.\nDesigning a national defense strategy for DDoS attacks has advantages, since the state has both the interest and the capacity to devise large-scale technological solutions of security from targeted attacks on critical services as well as from cumulative damage in this realm. The problem is that there is a wide spectrum of solutions and possible network locations for state intervention: services entry point, ISPs, cloud-based approaches and more; every solution should be analyzed from a national standpoint.\nOur work examines when and where should the state take action in the realm, ranging from the individual organization to the ISP level. We also suggest how its accumulated benefit should be assessed in order to evaluate the overall effectiveness of the national strategy.\n
