Effective Paths to Mitigation

Source: NIST Preliminary Cybersecurity Framework

Has your org defined a path of mitigation for handling each of the three types of events/incidents?

POLL QUESTION #2

Slide 13

Reactive Mitigation Strategies

• Repair systems

• Eliminate attack vectors

• Mitigate exploitable vulnerabilities

• Validation of the repair process

• Test systems to ensure compliance with policy and risk mitigation

• Perform additional repairs to resolve all current vulnerabilities

Slide 14

Proactive Mitigation Stratergies

• Determine the attack vector and scope of incident

• Know the enemy—identify their tools and tactics

• Collaboratively design a containment strategy and document it

• Create a task list based on containment plan

• Delegate and monitor tasks until containment is achieved

• Restrict Administrative Privileges

• Application Whitelisting

• Patch and Deploy Current Applications and Operating Systems

• Strengthen workstation defences

• Enforce strong user authentication

• Protect your email service

• Defend the web gateway and harden web applications

• Monitor your system infrastructure

• Monitor your network

• Educate users about social engineering

Is your firm practicing both reactive and proactive means of mitigating incidents?

POLL QUESTION #3

Slide 16

Mitigation Example – Pass The Hash

• High privilege domain accounts are used to log on to workstations and servers.

• Applications or services run with high privilege accounts.

• Scheduled tasks run with high privilege accounts.

• Ordinary user accounts (Local or Domain) are granted membership to the local

• Administrators group on their workstations.

• Highly privileged user accounts can be used to directly browse the Internet from workstations, domain controllers, or servers.

• The same password is configured for the built-in local Administrator account on most or all workstations and servers.

Slide 17

Mitigation Example – Pass The Hash (cont.)

• Restrict and protect high privileged domain accounts

• Restrict and protect local accounts with administrative privileges

• Remove standard users from the local Administrators group.

• Configure outbound proxies to deny Internet access to privileged accounts.

• Ensure administrative accounts do not have email accounts or mailboxes associated with them.
