00:03.050 --> 00:05.290
I'm your host for today.

00:05.470 --> 00:13.990
And we're welcome to DEF CON 30, AltspaceVR Virtual Reality Theater, where we're having DEF CON presentations.

00:14.130 --> 00:21.150
You're probably sick of hearing this from me, but new people are popping in and out all the time.

00:23.290 --> 00:25.950
Our next speaker is Guile.

00:26.770 --> 00:37.530
Guile has been volunteering with different online communities for the past two years by mentoring, moderating Discord servers, and presenting in different community-based InfoSec conferences.

00:37.530 --> 00:41.110
She's been in the tech industry since the early part of this century.

00:41.930 --> 00:52.050
Guile has a graduate certificate in response from SANS Institute and a master's in cybersecurity digital forensics from the NSW Canberra.

00:52.050 --> 00:57.310
Her day job is doing proactive and reactive work as an incident responder.

00:57.310 --> 01:03.450
And her talk is, How My High School Creative Writing Class Helped Me to Become a Better Incident Responder.

01:05.390 --> 01:08.070
So, Guile, please take it away.

01:08.730 --> 01:09.990
Thank you.

01:12.650 --> 01:14.030
Go there.

01:14.210 --> 01:15.450
Oh, wait a minute.

01:15.450 --> 01:17.690
Got to make sure you have access to the stage.

01:17.930 --> 01:19.510
That might help.

01:20.190 --> 01:21.310
Okay.

01:21.330 --> 01:25.250
Let's see if I could get there.

01:25.530 --> 01:26.130
There you go.

01:26.130 --> 01:27.510
You have access now.

01:27.510 --> 01:29.430
There we go.

01:32.000 --> 01:33.360
Okay.

01:39.680 --> 01:40.360
So...

01:40.360 --> 01:42.060
Okay.

01:42.060 --> 01:43.400
There we go.

01:43.400 --> 01:45.720
So, I do have megaphone access now.

01:45.720 --> 01:47.460
Can everybody hear me properly?

01:47.460 --> 01:48.480
Great.

01:48.480 --> 01:49.640
Sounds good.

01:49.640 --> 01:50.040
Okay.

01:50.900 --> 01:52.640
Thank you.

01:52.640 --> 01:54.980
So, good morning, everyone.

01:54.980 --> 01:56.380
I want to say good morning.

01:56.380 --> 01:58.540
It's 4 a.m.

01:58.540 --> 01:59.740
here.

01:59.960 --> 02:02.200
Two minutes after 4 a.m.

02:02.200 --> 02:06.600
So, I am calling...

02:06.600 --> 02:14.620
I'm dialing into this virtual reality space from NARM or Melbourne, Australia.

02:14.780 --> 02:20.000
So, first off, I'd like to start by doing an acknowledgement of country.

02:20.000 --> 02:27.580
I'm presenting from the lands of the Boon Wurrung people, and I wish to acknowledge them as traditional owners.

02:27.580 --> 02:37.260
I would also like to pay my respects to their elders, past and present, and aboriginal elders of other communities who may be here today.

02:37.280 --> 02:38.180
Thank you.

02:38.180 --> 02:39.820
Next slide, please.

02:43.540 --> 02:44.540
Next slide.

02:44.540 --> 02:44.880
Yes.

02:44.880 --> 02:45.120
Okay.

02:45.120 --> 02:46.200
So, I've been introduced.

02:46.200 --> 02:47.840
Thank you very much for that.

02:47.840 --> 02:55.720
So, I just wanted to add that I'm part of the first cohort of Project Freedman.

02:55.720 --> 03:14.980
This is an initiative here in Australia by the Women Speak Cyber and the AWSN, Australian Women in Security Network, to help make sure that we have diversity of thought and representation in our security, our infosec community here in Australia.

03:15.320 --> 03:20.480
I got training in terms of how to present in conferences.

03:20.800 --> 03:23.420
So, I do have a Twitter account.

03:23.420 --> 03:24.940
I have open DMs.

03:24.940 --> 03:32.320
So, please feel free to send me a DM if you have any questions afterwards about my presentation.

03:32.360 --> 03:34.040
Next slide, please.

03:36.320 --> 03:36.700
Okay.

03:36.700 --> 03:43.460
So, for this presentation, I'm going to be covering three areas here.

03:43.460 --> 03:48.980
So, first off, I'm going to talk about what's that creative nerd there.

03:48.980 --> 03:53.220
And then after that, I'm going to talk about incident response.

03:53.220 --> 03:57.360
And then I'm going to be, you know, giving some parting words.

03:57.360 --> 03:58.080
Okay.

03:58.140 --> 04:00.780
So, next slide, please.

04:02.040 --> 04:02.800
Okay.

04:02.800 --> 04:05.860
So, this is a photo, an old photo of mine.

04:05.860 --> 04:09.940
And this dates back from my high school time.

04:10.020 --> 04:20.420
And I was just, this particular day, I remember this vividly because I was just, you know, I brought the family camera.

04:20.420 --> 04:27.720
And this was before the time of, like, you know, digital cameras and all those things where you have to make sure you have a negative, you know.

04:27.720 --> 04:31.860
And then we have to take it to a store to have it processed.

04:32.020 --> 04:35.640
So, I was, like, you know, being all silly and just being goofy.

04:35.700 --> 04:42.460
And I borrowed one of my classmates, you know, beret and just, like, pretending I'm, you know, the artsy-fartsy person.

04:42.580 --> 04:53.120
And just for context, I actually went to a public school that is known for its strong science and math curriculum.

04:53.120 --> 04:55.160
It was called a Science High School.

04:55.160 --> 05:15.200
So, the concept was that there be high schools that are really focused on the STEM or to make sure that the students have this good background in science, technology, and mathematics in the hopes that we will go to the university and major in the STEM areas.

05:15.200 --> 05:22.040
So, if you cannot tell from my accent, I'm originally from the Philippines and I migrated to Australia.

05:22.480 --> 05:34.420
So, I was really lucky to get into that school because the entrance exam was really very competitive and we were, like, ranked.

05:34.420 --> 05:37.200
And then we had to make sure that we also passed the interviews.

05:37.200 --> 05:48.200
But the great thing about being in that Science High School was that there was also what we call electives, so we can take non-science and technology classes.

05:48.260 --> 05:52.660
And one of the first things that I signed up for was the creating writing class.

05:52.660 --> 05:56.500
And honestly, I was really glad that this was before social media.

05:56.500 --> 06:10.020
So, anything that I had in terms of photos and all those things were safe until my dad discovered Facebook and started scanning all my high school photos and started sharing it to everyone.

06:10.420 --> 06:16.380
Well, in a way, that was great because I asked him earlier this week, Hey, Dad, do you remember?

06:16.380 --> 06:18.320
Do you have one of my photos from high school?

06:18.320 --> 06:19.040
Ah, sure, sure.

06:19.040 --> 06:20.020
Which one?

06:20.020 --> 06:21.880
And then he sent me this one.

06:22.100 --> 06:23.380
So, that's the background.

06:23.380 --> 06:30.340
That's the context of why I called myself the creative nerd because I was a nerd first before I became a geekette.

06:30.340 --> 06:33.440
And so, next slide.

06:33.440 --> 06:35.720
So, next slide, please.

06:36.100 --> 06:50.180
So, one of the first things that I learned from my high school creative writing class was to really do research and, you know, document whatever that I come up with.

06:50.300 --> 07:09.800
And at the time, interviews, you know, contact people and interview them for your story or you read up... before we had internet back then.

07:09.820 --> 07:21.140
And the way to do research is actually go to a physical library, talk to a librarian, and then, you know, if you need, like, a book or something, there was a card catalog.

07:21.140 --> 07:25.300
Quick show of hands here or, like, show me your emojis.

07:25.300 --> 07:29.680
Anybody here has seen and used a card catalog in the library?

07:30.680 --> 07:32.200
Okay, any emojis?

07:32.600 --> 07:33.480
Okay.

07:33.760 --> 07:35.280
Okay, great.

07:36.620 --> 07:37.600
Okay, that's good.

07:37.600 --> 07:45.840
So, for those who haven't used a card catalog, so think of it like before we had the search engines, like , you know, Google.

07:45.840 --> 07:47.860
Before Google, there was, like, Yahoo.

07:47.960 --> 07:52.360
You know, that was the way how we did, like, research in the library.

07:52.360 --> 07:58.480
There's a series of, like, cards, and then they're alphabetically arranged.

07:58.620 --> 08:04.720
You know, you have topics, then you have, like, titles, and then it could be arranged by, you know, authors.

08:04.760 --> 08:07.260
Okay, so that's how we did the research.

08:07.320 --> 08:14.060
So, the first thing, the most important thing before you start, you know, like, writing anything, you have to think of an idea.

08:14.060 --> 08:18.420
Like, what do you want to, you know, tell?

08:18.420 --> 08:20.840
What's the story that you want to tell?

08:20.840 --> 08:23.100
You have to start with an idea.

08:23.180 --> 08:31.540
But the challenge is that sometimes if you're just, like, you know, stuck in a rut, you know, you can't really think of an idea.

08:31.540 --> 08:34.580
That's why there are things like story prompts.

08:34.580 --> 08:42.600
So, I remember, like, a week after, like, the first class, we were told, like, come up with an idea.

08:42.600 --> 08:47.220
So, the teacher, you know, said, like, okay, so what are your story ideas?

08:47.720 --> 08:52.120
And a lot of us were stumped, and that's why I should introduce, like, story prompts.

08:52.120 --> 08:53.100
So, what are story prompts?

08:53.100 --> 09:03.740
It's sort of like this, a sentence, you know, like, about something, and then you start, you know, building up, you know, from that particular story.

09:03.740 --> 09:05.320
So, you start with an idea.

09:05.320 --> 09:07.740
Then after that, you know, you think of a setting.

09:07.740 --> 09:12.620
So, you have to make sure that you do your research in terms of your setting.

09:12.620 --> 09:13.880
Where is it going to be?

09:13.880 --> 09:20.140
Is it going to be, like, local to our area, or is it in another city, another, you know, location?

09:20.140 --> 09:28.140
Or if you're thinking of something like writing, like, science fiction, is it set in this planet, or another planet, another galaxy?

09:28.480 --> 09:30.500
And then think of the period.

09:30.500 --> 09:33.020
When we say period, we're talking about the time, okay?

09:33.020 --> 09:38.020
Is it, like, is your story set in the present, or is it in the future?

09:38.020 --> 09:45.440
Or are you thinking about having a historical, you know, context?

09:45.440 --> 09:49.180
So, you've got to, like, do your research regarding that particular period.

09:49.560 --> 09:52.300
And then, of course, there's character building.

09:52.580 --> 10:07.140
So, for those of you who are, you know, into games, or let's just say Dungeons & Dragons, so you're probably familiar with, you know, that particular, you know, you have your...

10:07.600 --> 10:14.000
Think of it as, like, what's going to be, you know, the moral code of your, you know, character.

10:14.600 --> 10:22.500
You're going to be thinking about, okay, are they, you know, more on the good side, you know, like, evil side, or you're neutral.

10:22.500 --> 10:27.840
But mostly, when we start writing, we think of your hero, your protagonist, okay?

10:27.840 --> 10:35.020
So, and then you have to start thinking about their, you know, inner world, about their origin story, where did they come from?

10:35.020 --> 10:37.280
So, you have to start thinking about that.

10:37.380 --> 10:42.940
Okay, then lastly, of course, depending on the setting, you know, it's going to be about the genre.

10:43.000 --> 10:50.440
So, if you're thinking about, like, something in the future set in the other planets, or other galaxies, or something.

10:50.440 --> 10:52.160
So, that could be science fiction.

10:52.160 --> 10:56.200
But within science fiction, there's a lot of things that you can explore there.

10:56.200 --> 11:04.360
So, all in all, all these things that you've thought about, you need to make sure that you've done your research, and you've documented everything.

11:04.360 --> 11:08.140
You need to make sure that you, you know, write notes.

11:08.140 --> 11:17.080
And at that time, I just want to show, like, share this, my first attempt in using a computer.

11:17.080 --> 11:25.880
At that time, okay, there was a lot of, it was summer, and there were a lot of power outages.

11:26.000 --> 11:31.180
And I went to my mom's friend's house, who has a computer.

11:31.180 --> 11:34.420
And at the time, I really didn't know how to use a computer.

11:34.420 --> 11:38.680
And I just wanted to make sure that I'm able to type my story.

11:38.840 --> 11:41.600
And I was told, okay, this is how you do that.

11:41.600 --> 11:45.420
Okay, so that's your screen, black screen, you know, that was WordPerfect.

11:45.420 --> 11:54.480
And I have all these handwritten notes, and I have this story that I've written on paper.

11:54.480 --> 12:02.540
But as I was typing, I, you know, there are, like, other ideas that came in, and I just kept, like, you know, typing everything.

12:02.540 --> 12:07.180
And then suddenly, there was power outage.

12:07.440 --> 12:12.880
And then after, like, about 15 minutes, the power came back.

12:12.880 --> 12:19.600
And then I asked my, I call him uncle, although I'm not, you know, biologically related to him.

12:19.620 --> 12:23.640
I asked my uncle's kid, okay, so, okay, where's my work?

12:23.640 --> 12:26.940
I was, like, just typing, and then suddenly, the lights went out.

12:26.940 --> 12:30.600
And after that, it came back on, and I don't see my words there.

12:30.600 --> 12:34.480
And then he looked at me and asked, like, did you remember to save it?

12:34.480 --> 12:37.540
Like, what do you mean by saving?

12:39.860 --> 12:47.600
Okay, there was no way for me to recover, you know, those, like, I think I spent about three hours typing up my story.

12:47.600 --> 12:53.940
And then, like, okay, and that was my first experience in making sure that I always have, you know, redundancy.

12:53.940 --> 12:56.740
I have, like, backups and all those, you know, things.

12:56.740 --> 13:04.360
So, things that I learned from my creative writing class has really helped me when I shifted careers, like, you know, moving to tech.

13:04.360 --> 13:08.580
Okay, now, next slide, please.

13:10.520 --> 13:19.500
Okay, now, so, another important thing that I learned from my creative writing class was about the plot structure.

13:19.520 --> 13:24.200
Think of a plot structure, if you're a visual person, think of it like a mountain.

13:24.200 --> 13:30.660
So, sometimes it's called a story mountain, and sometimes you just see some examples like a plot diagram.

13:30.660 --> 13:39.780
So, you can see towards the left, you have there, left side of the mountain there, you have the exposition.

13:39.780 --> 13:45.940
So, think of it as the part of the plot when you start introducing your protagonists.

13:45.940 --> 13:50.060
Okay, and you also set the setting and the location there.

13:50.300 --> 13:56.040
And then, afterwards, you have what is called the pacing action.

13:56.040 --> 14:02.720
This is the part of the story that, this is basically after you've set your tone.

14:02.720 --> 14:06.420
Okay, and you've written something about your readers.

14:06.420 --> 14:13.900
I'm sorry, you've written something about your protagonists, and your readers are now invested in your protagonists.

14:13.900 --> 14:18.640
And think of the rising action as an event that interrupts this pattern.

14:18.640 --> 14:21.840
And this basically begins the story arc.

14:21.840 --> 14:32.540
Think of it as also, could be like there's a first conflict in your story, and then it ends with an event that changes everything for your protagonists.

14:32.700 --> 14:38.100
Okay, then towards the top of the story mountain, you have your climax.

14:38.100 --> 14:40.240
This follows the rising action.

14:40.240 --> 14:45.420
This is when everything comes together to create that single dramatic moment.

14:45.420 --> 14:47.880
So, that is the climax of the story.

14:47.880 --> 14:53.720
And then, after the climax of the story, you have to have the falling action.

14:53.720 --> 14:59.140
Sometimes some writers immediately move from climax to the resolution.

14:59.340 --> 15:09.940
But it is better to have a falling action, because you have to make sure that the tension and the conflict has started to resolve.

15:09.940 --> 15:15.220
And then your story starts winding down towards the resolution.

15:15.220 --> 15:20.360
And when we talk about the resolution, that is basically the conclusion of your story's plot.

15:20.360 --> 15:39.580
It could be just one scene, or it could be a series of scenes that will tie down your narrative arc to make sure that you show that something happened to the protagonist, and then what happened to that protagonist, and what changed in that protagonist's life.

15:39.580 --> 15:41.400
So, that is the resolution.

15:41.400 --> 15:44.640
So, this is basically your plot structure.

15:44.640 --> 15:48.860
And all stories should have this plot structure.

15:49.600 --> 15:52.340
Now, next slide, please.

15:54.080 --> 16:01.450
Sorry, I just have to have a sip of water here.

16:02.450 --> 16:20.830
So, in terms of the other important thing that I learned in my creative writing class is about knowing my reader and knowing myself.

16:21.170 --> 16:27.030
So, first of all, I have to make sure that I understand who is my target audience.

16:27.030 --> 16:39.970
I need to know, am I writing for, let's just say, my friends, family members, or am I writing for my classmates, or am I writing for the community?

16:40.330 --> 16:48.930
Because depending on your target audience, think of it in terms of the words that you use.

16:48.930 --> 16:55.970
So , of course, in terms of community, like in the Philippines when I was growing up, it was quite conservative.

16:55.970 --> 17:03.050
And the first story that I wrote was about a same-sex relationship.

17:03.050 --> 17:06.150
And at that time, that was considered quite controversial.

17:06.150 --> 17:09.610
And I was like, hey, you're too young to be writing about those stuff.

17:09.610 --> 17:15.690
And I was talking about it's about someone finding their identity and all those things.

17:15.690 --> 17:21.830
But I have to be very careful about the terminologies and all those things.

17:22.250 --> 17:24.710
So, in a way, I was self-censoring.

17:24.710 --> 17:35.070
But, you know, years later, I just realized that I shouldn't self-censor myself because I'm basically writing for myself.

17:35.210 --> 17:37.990
So , and then how will you tell your story?

17:38.350 --> 17:47.170
So , basically, there's the plot structure, you've done your research, and then how am I going to be telling my story?

17:47.170 --> 18:00.030
So, these are the important things that I've learned from my creative writing class that I still remember after so many decades later.

18:00.030 --> 18:04.650
So, what happened to this creative nerd?

18:04.650 --> 18:07.250
So, the creative nerd went to the university.

18:07.250 --> 18:15.430
Instead of majoring in science technology, I majored in psychology because I wanted to understand myself better.

18:15.430 --> 18:24.070
And at that time, it was, you know, difficult having like a career out of the university as, you know, a psychologist or as a psychology major.

18:24.070 --> 18:29.070
So, my family wanted me to either go to med school or law school.

18:29.250 --> 18:38.810
And I initially thought I want to go to med school, but I dropped by and thought like, nah, I don't want to do like, you know, all the dissection and all those things.

18:38.810 --> 18:41.550
And then I decided I'm just going to go to law school.

18:41.550 --> 18:47.610
So, after finishing my degree in psychology, I went to law school.

18:47.610 --> 18:59.310
And when I was there, I realized that, hey, I'm not like the very argumentative type because I'm turning into a very argumentative person.

18:59.310 --> 19:06.510
No matter what happens, we were being trained to win every single, you know, little argument.

19:06.510 --> 19:09.330
And I thought like, that's not what I want to do.

19:09.330 --> 19:13.070
And so, I got out of law school after two years.

19:13.070 --> 19:18.070
So, I joked that, hey, does that make me an outlaw because I dropped out?

19:18.410 --> 19:21.930
Anyway, then I got connected to the Internet.

19:21.930 --> 19:28.210
And when I got connected to the Internet, I realized, oh, there's a world out there and I want to be part of it.

19:28.210 --> 19:34.210
And that started my shift, career shift to tech.

19:34.210 --> 19:42.090
So, early part of this century, I moved into tech and I started my career doing networking stuff, Cisco stuff, and I love that.

19:42.090 --> 19:48.230
But I really wanted to focus on cybersecurity or at the time it was network security.

19:48.230 --> 19:55.230
It's largely because when I got connected to the Internet, I used IRC and I had an online stalker.

19:55.230 --> 19:58.110
So, that's why I was like really concerned about security.

19:58.110 --> 20:05.570
Anyway, eventually, so from doing networking, network security stuff, I moved into cybersecurity.

20:05.650 --> 20:16.310
And I really wanted to do forensic stuff because I've been reading mystery since I was a kid, mystery novels, all those things.

20:16.350 --> 20:23.730
So, now I'm at this point in my life and my career where I'm doing something that I really love.

20:23.730 --> 20:30.230
And it's digital forensics and focusing on digital forensics and incident response.

20:30.230 --> 20:32.330
So, now, next slide, please.

20:32.330 --> 20:34.910
Let's talk about incident response.

20:36.070 --> 20:39.490
Now, quick question for the listeners.

20:39.490 --> 20:50.110
What is the first thing that goes into your mind when you think about incident response?

20:51.050 --> 20:53.270
Next slide, please.

20:54.670 --> 21:03.550
Do you think of yourself like having a similar expression to this person in this photo?

21:07.650 --> 21:19.890
So, sometimes people consider incident response as one of the more stressful kind of work in the infosec area.

21:19.890 --> 21:26.710
Because basically, you're being called upon to respond to a particular incident.

21:26.930 --> 21:29.010
So, next slide, please.

21:30.070 --> 21:42.130
Now, before I start talking about incident response, I just want to clarify something about the terminology.

21:42.130 --> 21:52.170
So, when we talk about incidents, we need to always clarify that when we're talking about incidents.

21:52.170 --> 21:57.390
So, first off, there's the word event.

21:57.390 --> 22:07.490
When we say event in the context of incident response, an event is just basically something that is observable.

22:07.730 --> 22:10.270
An event is something that is observable.

22:10.270 --> 22:22.570
So, it could be, you know, there was a user connected to a particular website, visited a particular website, you know.

22:22.690 --> 22:24.210
So, that's an event.

22:24.210 --> 22:26.530
That is something that is observable.

22:26.530 --> 22:35.250
Now, when we talk about incident, incident basically means there was an event, an observable happening.

22:35.250 --> 22:36.690
How do you observe that?

22:36.690 --> 22:40.410
You have like logs, you have some evidence there.

22:40.610 --> 22:54.590
And the event itself, that's observable, is something that breaks, you know, the security triad, the CIA.

22:54.590 --> 22:57.990
Either confidentiality, integrity, availability.

22:57.990 --> 23:00.090
So, that becomes an incident.

23:00.090 --> 23:12.810
So, basically, an incident is an event that's observable, but it affects the CIA, or it breaks certain security policies in your organization.

23:12.890 --> 23:22.630
So, when we talk about incident response, it is a process to help protect the organization, and it has several stages.

23:22.630 --> 23:26.310
So, what's the difference between digital forensics and incident response?

23:26.310 --> 23:43.510
So, digital forensics by itself is both an art and a science in terms of understanding what has happened within a system or inside, let's just say, an organization or within your, you know, network infrastructure or your infrastructure.

23:43.590 --> 23:45.610
So, there are different artifacts.

23:45.610 --> 23:49.290
When we say artifacts, these are like the evidence, sources of evidence.

23:49.290 --> 24:00.310
And then incident response uses a lot of the techniques and knowledge from digital forensics in order to help protect your organization.

24:00.710 --> 24:10.470
So , incident response is, think of it like a practical organization, sorry, incident response is the practical application of your digital forensics.

24:10.470 --> 24:17.070
So, the incident response is like you're responding to an incident right now, the present moment.

24:17.070 --> 24:22.210
And then digital forensics, think of it, you're looking at what happened in the past.

24:22.210 --> 24:26.270
So , you're using your different tools and techniques to understand what happens.

24:26.270 --> 24:36.750
You're collecting all these artifacts, evidence, you're making sure that you preserve them just in case you need to present this, you know, case in court.

24:36.830 --> 24:41.470
So, that's the difference between digital forensics and incident response.

24:41.470 --> 24:43.870
Now, next slide, please.

24:45.630 --> 24:52.730
Now, when we talk about incident process, there are several frameworks that are available out there.

24:52.990 --> 24:59.270
So, the first one is the NIST, that's from the National Institute of Standards and Technology.

24:59.270 --> 25:12.350
And this particular incident response framework is actually in the special publication 800-61 Revision 2 or 800-61 R2.

25:12.350 --> 25:17.130
So, NIST is a government agency and works on technology.

25:17.130 --> 25:25.770
And their framework for incident response, or sometimes you can see it like incident handling, there are four steps.

25:25.770 --> 25:27.470
Now, there is SANS.

25:27.470 --> 25:34.490
So, SANS is known for providing security training.

25:34.490 --> 25:40.250
And initially, SANS used to call itself a Sys Admin Audit Network and Security.

25:40.250 --> 25:42.390
So, that's the meaning of SANS.

25:42.390 --> 25:49.510
And compared to the NIST, this is a private organization and they're very much focused on security.

25:49.510 --> 25:54.550
And for them, their incident response framework has six steps.

25:54.550 --> 25:57.430
Think of them, you have the PSIRL.

25:57.430 --> 26:03.670
This is the acronym for those steps for the SANS incident response framework.

26:03.910 --> 26:07.350
Now, can you please go to the next slide, please?

26:09.070 --> 26:15.650
So, for NIST, you have there the four steps in the incident response.

26:15.650 --> 26:20.350
So, you have preparation, and then you have detection and analysis.

26:20.450 --> 26:24.930
And then after the detection and analysis, you have containment, eradication, and recovery.

26:24.930 --> 26:29.190
And then after that, you have the post-incident activity.

26:29.530 --> 26:31.890
Now, let's look at the next slide, please.

26:31.890 --> 26:33.810
Can you please go to the next slide?

26:33.810 --> 26:40.110
So, for SANS, compared to the NIST framework, SANS has six steps.

26:40.110 --> 26:42.710
There are six phases.

26:42.710 --> 26:49.630
So, there's the preparation, identification, containment, eradication, recovery, and lessons learned.

26:49.630 --> 26:51.490
So, next slide, please.

26:52.510 --> 26:58.510
So, comparing this, you can see that both frameworks have the preparation phase.

26:58.510 --> 27:03.470
And then you have the identification phase as the second phase.

27:03.470 --> 27:09.670
And then you have the containment, eradication, and recovery, which are three separate phases from SANS.

27:09.670 --> 27:13.030
This is actually the third phase under NIST.

27:13.250 --> 27:22.590
And then the lessons learned phase from SANS is called the post-incident activity.

27:22.710 --> 27:30.350
So, at this point, I'm just going to go through the six steps of the SANS framework.

27:30.350 --> 27:39.550
So, when we talk about the preparation phase, this is where you should be making sure that you have your documentation in place.

27:40.490 --> 27:46.190
Ideally, you have your security policies.

27:46.190 --> 27:52.650
You do your reviews and you make sure that the security policies are well-known in the organization.

27:52.650 --> 27:56.810
This is the time where you're also doing a risk assessment.

27:56.850 --> 28:01.310
You're basically making sure that you know all your assets when we talk about assets.

28:01.310 --> 28:07.530
These are your endpoints in the context of incident response.

28:07.530 --> 28:10.250
It's your laptops, desktops.

28:10.270 --> 28:15.730
And then you also have to make sure that you identify what are the sensitive assets.

28:15.730 --> 28:22.670
And then you also make sure that you define which are the critical security incidents that the team should focus on.

28:22.670 --> 28:37.430
Because you don't want to call the incident responder when you're just dealing with what turns out to be a desktop issue.

28:37.450 --> 28:40.610
It could be like, oh, the printer didn't work or something.

28:40.610 --> 28:43.450
So, that's not a security incident.

28:43.450 --> 28:48.870
You have to make sure that you have a definition of severity levels, priority.

28:48.870 --> 28:59.430
During the preparation phase, if your organization hasn't built a computer security incident response team, this is the time that you should be doing that.

28:59.430 --> 29:01.490
During the preparation phase.

29:01.490 --> 29:07.750
And then you're also making sure that your team is prepared to respond to incidents at this point.

29:07.870 --> 29:11.110
Now, the second phase is called identification.

29:11.110 --> 29:15.610
This is when you have monitoring of your systems.

29:15.610 --> 29:21.370
And then you have to know what is normal operation, what is normal for your organization.

29:21.370 --> 29:28.550
And this is the phase where you are detecting any deviation from the normal operations.

29:28.550 --> 29:37.270
And you have to understand or check, make sure that these are representing actual security incidents.

29:37.270 --> 29:44.610
And during the identification phase, when an incident is discovered, you need to collect additional evidence.

29:44.610 --> 29:49.390
You need to establish the type, severity, and you need to document everything.

29:49.630 --> 29:55.790
And then from that second phase, you now go to the third step.

29:55.790 --> 29:58.150
This is where you do the containment.

29:58.150 --> 30:00.770
You perform short-term containment.

30:00.770 --> 30:08.350
For example, you may need to isolate a certain part of your network or a network segment that is under attack.

30:08.350 --> 30:26.450
And then you move to long-term containment, where you may need to implement some temporary fixes to make sure that your systems can still continue to be used in production, while at the same time, you are rebuilding the clean systems.

30:26.450 --> 30:31.290
And then from the containment phase, you move to the eradication phase.

30:31.290 --> 30:37.650
This is where if you are affected by a malware, you're removing malware from all your affected systems.

30:37.650 --> 30:40.990
And this is when you're trying to understand the root cause of the attack.

30:40.990 --> 30:47.730
And then you are making sure that you're trying to prevent similar attacks to happen in the future.

30:48.050 --> 30:56.150
And of course, that goes hand-in-hand with the recovery, wherein you will be bringing back your production systems online.

30:56.150 --> 31:00.970
You have to be careful before you bring back your production systems online.

31:00.970 --> 31:09.850
And typically, for a lot of the incidents I've worked in previously, there's always a check of the systems.

31:09.850 --> 31:20.690
For example, if there was a ransomware attack, before a system is fully put back to the production, we have to make sure that we have swept the entire system.

31:20.690 --> 31:23.690
Are there any indicators of compromise there?

31:23.690 --> 31:25.050
Is this a clean system?

31:25.050 --> 31:27.510
Can we put it back online?

31:27.510 --> 31:31.110
Or if it's like a backup, make sure that the backup is clean.

31:31.190 --> 31:37.290
And then part of the recovery phase is to test and verify.

31:37.290 --> 31:43.130
You monitor all the affected systems to make sure that they're back to their normal activity.

31:43.370 --> 31:46.310
Think of it like business as usual.

31:46.470 --> 31:49.710
And then lastly, you have the lessons learned phase.

31:49.710 --> 31:51.010
This is very important.

31:51.010 --> 31:58.170
Some organizations don't do this, but it's very important that you have a time frame.

31:58.290 --> 32:04.770
It's best that two or three weeks, not let's just say six months or one year after the incident.

32:04.770 --> 32:06.750
It has to be as soon as possible.

32:06.750 --> 32:08.230
Maybe it's like two weeks.

32:08.470 --> 32:13.510
You need to perform, let's just say, a review of the incident.

32:13.510 --> 32:18.310
You need to make sure that you have a complete documentation of the incident.

32:18.310 --> 32:27.610
If you need to further investigate the incident, you need to understand what was done to contain that incident.

32:27.610 --> 32:31.650
And then whether there's any improvement in the process.

32:31.650 --> 32:39.730
If you have issues in terms of processes, technology, or people, this is the time we're in.

32:39.730 --> 32:45.090
You're supposed to learn from this particular incident.

32:45.090 --> 32:50.210
But there should be no shaming, no victim blaming, and all those things.

32:51.690 --> 32:59.030
That's our basis in the incident response.

32:59.050 --> 33:09.070
Now, in terms of the preparation phase, you can see towards the right of this particular slide, I have an arrow called proactive.

33:09.070 --> 33:14.710
In incident response, we have what we call proactive and reactive side.

33:14.710 --> 33:17.630
When we say proactive, this is the part we're in.

33:17.630 --> 33:25.930
We are doing proactive projects or activities to help prepare us.

33:25.930 --> 33:33.130
And then towards the identification phase, towards the lessons learned, these are parts of the reactive.

33:33.130 --> 33:38.630
Wherein you're actually reacting to an ongoing incident in your organization.

33:38.630 --> 33:51.070
One of the activities that we do in terms of the proactive side of incident response is doing a tabletop exercise.

33:54.330 --> 34:01.050
Who among you here has participated in a tabletop exercise?

34:01.050 --> 34:03.170
Somebody could like, you know...

34:07.670 --> 34:17.210
Now, for the others who haven't participated in a tabletop exercise, I'm just going to be explaining what is involved there.

34:17.330 --> 34:20.950
Sometimes it's called TTX for short, tabletop exercise.

34:20.950 --> 34:24.330
So think of a tabletop exercise as a mock incident.

34:24.690 --> 34:27.650
So it's not a functional exercise.

34:27.650 --> 34:43.250
When we say functional exercise, you present the group with alerts and they're supposed to be trying to simulate how you're supposed to be responding.

34:43.250 --> 34:45.350
You're going to be checking the dashboards.

34:45.350 --> 34:46.750
It's a functional exercise.

34:46.750 --> 34:51.150
When we talk about tabletop exercise, it's a mock incident.

34:51.150 --> 34:57.630
There is a security incident and you are just giving them scenarios.

34:57.630 --> 35:01.850
And they're not going to be checking any dashboards.

35:01.850 --> 35:10.190
They're not going to be logging into the monitoring systems or the EDR, the endpoint detection response tools.

35:10.190 --> 35:11.850
They're not going to be looking at that.

35:11.850 --> 35:18.110
This is

35:22.170 --> 35:27.230
purely a tabletop exercise.

35:27.230 --> 35:34.250
Think of it, it's purely scenario-based.

35:34.250 --> 35:37.490
You are not responding to a real incident.

35:37.490 --> 35:47.470
Everybody's just there, sitting down, and everybody's just doing some discussions.

35:48.290 --> 35:58.870
And the goal here, there will probably be several goals, but mostly it's to test the IR plan.

35:58.870 --> 36:10.870
And then test the readiness of the organization in terms of if something similar to this scenario happened to your organization, what are you supposed to do?

36:10.870 --> 36:13.190
Who's supposed to be doing this?

36:13.190 --> 36:18.530
Who's supposed to be leading the incident?

36:18.530 --> 36:22.990
Who's supposed to be doing those other things that are in the IR plan?

36:22.990 --> 36:30.590
Before you actually have a tabletop exercise, make sure that you have at least a basic IR plan in place.

36:30.590 --> 36:37.090
And everybody who is involved in responding to the incident should be familiar with the IR plan.

36:37.090 --> 36:51.690
In terms of making sure that the discussion moves along, you need to make sure that when you create tabletop exercises, you have injects.

36:51.690 --> 36:58.930
Injects are additional information that you provide to the participants in your tabletop exercise.

36:58.930 --> 37:09.570
Ideally, the audience or the people who are participating in the tabletop exercise is composed of people who will be part of the incident.

37:09.570 --> 37:12.870
So you'll have a mix of technical people.

37:12.870 --> 37:28.850
And then also the best tabletop exercise will also have some people who are in the management area, because you will need to make sure that you involve certain managers so they're aware of what's happening.

37:28.850 --> 37:44.630
Sometimes if, let's just say, a particular incident would involve communicating with external agencies or external parties, you need to make sure that you have someone, let's just say, doing the comms for this.

37:44.630 --> 37:48.910
Because it could be, let's just say, the incident is like ransomware.

37:48.910 --> 37:51.590
You're preparing for a potential ransomware attack.

37:51.590 --> 38:00.070
You need to make sure that you have somebody who's in the legal team who may need to contact the insurance for your cybersecurity insurance.

38:00.070 --> 38:15.110
And then the other would be that you need to have an external facing statement from the corporate communications, providing a message out there that you have the situation under control and you're investigating it.

38:15.110 --> 38:22.110
So it would be good to have all these people who would potentially be involved in a major security incident.

38:22.110 --> 38:24.030
You can make sure that you have them there.

38:24.190 --> 38:41.810
Okay , so how are we, or like in my case, when I started, you know, creating scenarios for tabletop exercises for my previous clients, this is where the creative nerd came out.

38:41.810 --> 38:44.670
So I was a nerd first before I became a geekette.

38:44.670 --> 38:52.150
So the creative nerd in me started thinking about the things that I learned in my creative writing class.

38:52.290 --> 38:54.350
So next slide, please.

38:56.710 --> 39:06.250
So whenever I created scenarios, I made sure that I'm familiar with my client's incident response plans.

39:06.250 --> 39:15.230
And the incident response plan would actually have, you know, all these different IR bases, you know, identified there.

39:15.330 --> 39:28.430
So when I created, you know, a scenario, every time I need to create our scenario, of course, I need to make sure that first, okay, I set the scene.

39:28.430 --> 39:33.170
So think of it, it's like towards the left of that flat mountain.

39:33.170 --> 39:42.260
So I'm basically providing, think of it, I'm basically providing the exposition.

39:42.870 --> 39:52.290
So usually I put something there, like there's a day, okay, let's just say it's Wednesday morning.

39:52.950 --> 40:08.010
A user may, you know, a user contacts help this saying that they saw something unusual in their screen.

40:08.010 --> 40:11.350
And there was a strange message there.

40:11.350 --> 40:16.250
So think of it as, you know, preparing your, you know, scene there.

40:16.250 --> 40:19.390
So you're basically doing your exposition.

40:19.390 --> 40:33.030
And then afterwards, next inject, you know, for that tabletop exercise, other users started complaining that they can't do anything.

40:33.030 --> 40:36.430
So you're basically setting up the rising action.

40:36.430 --> 40:43.150
And then you start doing, if you're the incident responder, you start identifying who are the affected people.

40:43.150 --> 40:50.510
And then you ask them for, let's just say, any screenshots or read out, like if there's like any message that they see there.

40:50.750 --> 40:57.170
And then you have towards the top, the climax of where you're doing the containment eradication.

40:57.170 --> 41:00.190
Maybe it's because, you know, there's like another inject.

41:00.190 --> 41:04.870
You started like, you know, you saw the message and then you did some research.

41:05.680 --> 41:16.710
It's around some note and it's with a particular, let's just say, threat actor or a particular group, APT groups, that's like using this kind of, let's just say, malware.

41:16.710 --> 41:20.830
And then you start doing your containment eradication.

41:20.830 --> 41:28.870
And then you have your falling action or in your started doing your recovery as part of your incident response.

41:28.870 --> 41:30.470
What are you supposed to do?

41:30.470 --> 41:40.470
So it could be that you have other systems that were affected and you started like using, you know, your team backups, putting them back there.

41:40.470 --> 41:42.050
And then you have the resolution.

41:42.050 --> 41:49.510
Think of it, it's your lessons learned towards the end of that particular scenario in your tabletop exercise.

41:49.570 --> 41:58.450
So for those who may be tasked to do tabletop exercises, remember this plot structure.

41:58.450 --> 42:03.110
And then think of it, it's sort of like kind of mapped to the different phases there.

42:03.110 --> 42:08.670
And you can write appropriate injects for your particular scenario.

42:13.210 --> 42:15.530
Next slide, please.

42:17.250 --> 42:28.310
Now, after your tabletop exercise has been conducted, make sure that you have an after action report.

42:28.310 --> 42:30.490
Okay, this is important.

42:30.490 --> 42:39.730
This is basically documenting what was, you know, what happened during the tabletop exercise.

42:39.730 --> 42:46.610
Like for particular, you know, parts of these scenarios based on the injects.

42:46.610 --> 42:49.210
What was the decision?

42:49.210 --> 42:51.430
What did people, you know, decide?

42:51.430 --> 42:53.030
What did they do?

42:53.030 --> 43:10.490
If let's just say your goal was to improve the IR plan or the IR process, you have to make sure that someone during the tabletop exercise, someone was like taking down notes.

43:10.670 --> 43:14.670
And then these notes will form the basis of your after action report.

43:14.670 --> 43:20.470
You need to identify, let's just say, according to the incident response plan.

43:20.470 --> 43:41.710
Whenever, let's just say, major severity or, you know, let's just say major, you know, cybersecurity incident happens, there should be a message that goes out to the group chat over, let's just say, Slack.

43:41.710 --> 43:47.810
Okay, so if you're using Slack, so according to your IR plan, you're supposed to be using Slack.

43:47.810 --> 44:00.150
And then during the tabletop exercise, people started, you know, saying that, oh, we're just going to start sending messages via WhatsApp.

44:00.150 --> 44:06.010
So there's a deviation between the practice, actual practice and the plan.

44:06.010 --> 44:18.490
So you'll have to decide as an organization, like, are we going to change our incident response plan to indicate that whenever there's an incident, we're supposed to be using WhatsApp?

44:18.490 --> 44:24.410
So the question is, is WhatsApp one of your approved, you know, application when in fact you have Slack?

44:24.410 --> 44:33.470
So these things that you've learned during the tabletop exercise, you put it in the after action report, so that it will drive changes.

44:33.470 --> 44:48.930
Sometimes the incident response plan... you were using, let's just say, an old, you know, ticketing system, and then you move to a new ticketing system.

44:48.930 --> 44:55.290
And by the time that you did this tabletop exercise, everybody kept referring to the new ticketing system.

44:55.290 --> 44:58.830
So you need to, you know, update your IR plan.

44:58.830 --> 44:59.490
Okay.

44:59.490 --> 45:03.230
Now, next slide, please.

45:04.930 --> 45:21.270
Another application of the creative writing class, you know, learnings I had was whenever I actually sit down, and then I need to write a lessons learned report.

45:21.270 --> 45:26.150
So this is towards the reactive part of our IR process.

45:26.150 --> 45:32.590
So I make sure that I have documented what I've done.

45:32.590 --> 45:34.750
So this is like the how.

45:34.890 --> 45:37.050
And then sometimes there's the question like, why?

45:37.050 --> 45:44.790
Why was this particular, you know, let's just say, finding important.

45:44.790 --> 45:46.190
Why is it important?

45:46.190 --> 45:46.710
Okay.

45:46.710 --> 45:59.890
And then I have to make sure that I actually put there some recommendations so that, you know, in the future, what can we do in order to reduce the risk of similar incidents?

45:59.890 --> 46:10.390
And then sometimes when I write lessons learned report, it can be quite, you know, depressing because of what happened.

46:10.390 --> 46:35.770
And just, you know, between us in this particular space, there were times where in there were parts there that I knew with our team has already provided in a previous incident, but this particular client didn't learn from it, you know, they didn't like,

46:35.770 --> 46:40.290
you know, they didn't implement those changes.

46:40.290 --> 46:46.690
And then, you know, about a year or 18 months later, the same thing happened again.

46:46.690 --> 46:57.950
So sometimes it can be quite, you know, demoralizing, but I always try to, you know, remember, you know, like recognizing the positive.

46:57.950 --> 47:00.630
Okay, so I at least put something there.

47:00.630 --> 47:01.930
What was positive?

47:01.930 --> 47:03.310
Okay, I put something there.

47:03.310 --> 47:06.310
So it's not, you know, depressing.

47:06.310 --> 47:07.010
Okay.

47:07.010 --> 47:10.170
And then next slide, please.

47:10.970 --> 47:11.770
Okay.

47:15.090 --> 47:24.130
So when I write the lessons learned report, I also have to remember, what are my readers goals?

47:24.130 --> 47:26.430
Okay, so who's my audience?

47:26.430 --> 47:33.830
So the report that I'm writing is something that's hopefully going to be used as a guide by my clients.

47:33.830 --> 47:53.210
And then one of the things that I always make sure is that I write a good executive report, because depending on who your reader is, okay, there are some wherein they don't dwell into the technical aspect, like the indicators of compromise, they just want to know what happened.

47:53.210 --> 48:00.190
And the executive, you know, summary must have those, you know, think of it, the highlights, the important things.

48:00.190 --> 48:08.150
And especially for those higher ups, like executive level or something, they don't have time to dwell into the nitty gritty details.

48:08.150 --> 48:11.450
And they just want, you know, the executive summary.

48:11.450 --> 48:34.530
But I also make sure that the technical aspects is also documented, it's put in the lessons learned report, so that for the other teams that exist, it could be like engineering, it could be like, let's just say if the network was, you know, part, if there's like something like network related in the particular incidents of people in the network engineering,

48:34.530 --> 48:36.950
they look at it, they understand something there.

48:36.950 --> 48:43.330
So, it's very important to make sure that I have the reader's goals in mind when I'm writing.

48:43.810 --> 48:44.490
Okay.

48:44.490 --> 48:46.610
And then next slide, please.

48:47.410 --> 48:48.110
Okay.

48:48.110 --> 48:54.990
So, in conclusion, okay, I want everyone to remember the mounting.

48:54.990 --> 49:17.250
So, every time you look at the mounting, I hope you remember the plot structure, because the plot structure will help you in terms of framing the narrative when you're creating any tabletop exercise for any simulations, or if you are trying to write your lessons learned report,

49:17.250 --> 49:19.990
like how did the event unfold?

49:19.990 --> 49:21.810
Okay, remember the mounting.

49:21.930 --> 49:24.690
And then second point, think of your reader.

49:24.690 --> 49:27.350
Okay, who's your audience?

49:27.350 --> 49:29.030
Okay, what are their goals?

49:29.030 --> 49:37.410
What do they want out of your, let's just say, your lessons learned report and make sure that you present it in an orderly manner.

49:37.490 --> 49:42.130
And then this one is my call to action to everyone.

49:42.130 --> 49:49.110
So, everybody's saying like, oh, we have to be, you know, make sure that we have like, enough people going into STEM.

49:49.110 --> 50:14.450
Okay, please also support the arts and creative industries, because all the things that I'm doing in terms of the technical aspect, the background that I've had in high school in terms of creative writing, and other artistic classes that I took as elective has helped me in terms of communicating to the stakeholders,

50:14.450 --> 50:18.490
the management about, you know, issues or about incidents.

50:18.490 --> 50:24.310
So, please, let's make sure that we support the arts and creative industries.

50:24.310 --> 50:26.390
Okay, next slide, please.

50:26.390 --> 50:38.370
So, if you have any questions, okay, don't know whether we have that option here in this space, or I am in the Discord.

50:38.370 --> 50:41.130
Okay, you could ask me questions there.

50:41.130 --> 50:46.050
Or you can like send me a message, or like send me a DM in Twitter.

50:46.050 --> 50:46.670
Okay.

50:46.670 --> 50:55.630
Or it could be not even related to this, it could even be like questions about where's the best coffee in Australia?

50:55.630 --> 50:57.190
Not secret about it.

50:57.190 --> 50:58.290
It's in Melbourne.

50:59.330 --> 51:03.030
Okay, thank you very much for your time for having me here.

51:03.050 --> 51:05.230
And please take care, everyone.

51:05.230 --> 51:05.850
Okay.

51:19.270 --> 51:21.090
Is there a question?

51:21.090 --> 51:23.590
I think there's a raised hand icon there.

51:24.490 --> 51:27.730
I did have a question.

51:27.930 --> 51:34.250
So, this is related to but not exactly on your topic.

51:34.490 --> 51:42.790
So, how often would you suggest that a company does tabletop exercises?

51:45.610 --> 51:48.370
Let me just repeat his question.

51:48.370 --> 51:54.570
Ideally, how often should the company do a tabletop exercise?

51:54.570 --> 51:56.230
Did I get it correctly?

51:58.050 --> 51:59.250
Yes.

51:59.250 --> 52:00.030
Yes.

52:00.030 --> 52:00.690
Okay.

52:00.690 --> 52:04.790
So, ideally, it should be on an annual basis.

52:05.810 --> 52:06.650
Yes.

52:07.010 --> 52:10.790
So, and then why do I say on an annual basis?

52:10.790 --> 52:17.130
Because ideally, your IR plan should be reviewed on an annual basis.

52:18.010 --> 52:28.410
So, the ideal scenario is that or situation is that you make sure that everyone's familiar with their incident response plan.

52:28.410 --> 52:40.570
So, those who are involved in doing incident response should have, you know, a chance to go through it, to read through it, and then make sure that they're familiar with that.

52:40.570 --> 52:48.690
And then you make sure that you announce that you're going to have a tabletop exercise, make sure that everybody set aside time for that.

52:48.690 --> 52:54.930
It doesn't have to be long, it could just be three hours, okay, or four hours, depending on how long the scenario is.

52:54.930 --> 52:57.110
So, you can block, you know, like half day.

52:57.110 --> 53:05.330
And then you make sure that there is someone there who's taking down notes, because that's needed for the after action report.

53:05.330 --> 53:05.610
Okay.

53:05.610 --> 53:07.590
And then you run your scenario.

53:07.590 --> 53:22.170
And then based out of that, you know, scenario, then, you know, you go back if you need to, you know, review, change your IR plan, or if there are certain, you know, policies, you know, or processes or procedures that need to be updated.

53:22.170 --> 53:24.570
So, ideally, on an annual basis.

53:24.570 --> 53:36.230
And then you make sure that once you've updated your IR plan, you put there the date where you conducted your tabletop exercise.

53:36.230 --> 53:41.490
So, think of it as you tested your IR plan with that tabletop exercise.

53:41.830 --> 53:44.830
So, does that answer your question?

53:45.510 --> 53:46.890
Yes, thank you.

53:47.070 --> 53:48.550
Okay, no worries.

53:48.570 --> 53:50.070
Okay, anybody else?

53:54.050 --> 53:55.530
Okay, no questions.

53:55.530 --> 53:57.350
So, once again, thank you very much.

53:57.350 --> 53:59.130
Okay, how do I drop the mic?

54:00.350 --> 54:02.470
Press the letter R on your keyboard.

54:03.170 --> 54:04.830
Sorry, the letter what?
