Hands-on Threat Modeling by Sebastien Deleersnyder
This is a 1 day, trainer-led, on-site, Threat Modeling course. The training material and hands-on workshops include real live Use Cases. The students will be challenged to perform practical threat modeling in groups of 3 to 4 people covering the different stages of threat modeling on:
 * B2B web and mobile applications, sharing the same REST backend
 * An Internet of Things (IoT) deployment with an on premise gateway and cloud-based secure update service

Threat modeling is the primary security analysis task performed during the software design stage. Threat modeling is a structured activity for identifying and evaluating application threats and vulnerabilities. The security objectives, threats, and attacks modeling activities during the threat modeling are designed to help you find vulnerabilities in your application. You can use the identified vulnerabilities to help shape your design and direct and scope your security testing.

Threat modeling allows you to consider, document, and discuss the security implications of designs in the context of their planned operational environment and in a structured fashion. Threat modeling also allows consideration of security issues at the component or application level. The threat modeling course will teach you to perform threat modeling through a series of workshops, where our trainer will guide you through the different stages of a practical threat model.

This course is aimed at software developers, architects, system managers or security professionals. Before attending this course, students should be familiar with basic knowledge of web and mobile Applications and databases. The students should bring their own laptop to the course.

Threat Modeling – real life use cases
As highly skilled professionals with years of experience under our belts we know that there is a gap between academic knowledge of threat modeling and the real world. In order to minimize that gap we have developed practical Use Cases, based on real life projects. Each use case includes a description of the environment, together with questions and templates to build a threat model. Using this methodology for the hands on workshops we provide our students with a robust training experience and the templates to incorporate threat modeling best practices in their daily work. The students will be challenged to perform the threat modeling in groups of 3 to 4 people performing the different stages of threat modeling on: After each hands-on workshop, the results are discussed, and the students receive a documented solution.
 * B2B web and mobile applications, sharing the same REST backend
 * An Internet of Things (IoT) deployment with an on premise gateway and cloud-based secure update service

Sebastien Deleersnyder
Sebastien Deleersnyder, managing partner and application security consultant at Toreon will share his practical threat model experience. Sebastien led engagements in the domain of ICT-security, Web and Mobile Security with several customers including BNP Paribas Fortis, Atos Worldline, KBC, Nationale Nederlanden (ING), Isabel, Fluxys, OLAF, EU Council, TNT Post, Flemish Community, Agfa-Gevaert and ING Insurance International. Sebastien is the Belgian OWASP Chapter Leader, served as vice-chair of the global OWASP Foundation Board and performed several public presentations on Web Application, Mobile and Web Services Security. Furthermore, Sebastien co-founded the yearly BruCON conference.

Arne Swinnen - The Tales of a Bug Bounty Hunter
Abstract: Bug bounty hunting is the new black! During this technical talk, several interesting vulnerabilities identified in Instagram, the increasingly-popular photo-based social media platform, will be presented. All vulnerabilities were disclosed responsibly via Facebook’s Public Bug Bounty program over the course of 2015 and 2016, and will be discussed in detail. Required advanced Mobile Security attack techniques for this Research, such as Binary Modification, Dynamic Hooking and Burp Suite Plugin Development will be covered, among other trickery. The most interesting vulnerabilities were hybrid: Combinations of complementary vulnerabilities in different environments (e.g. Web and Mobile). All identified issues’ root causes will be mapped onto the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), to analyze where they could have been prevented from materializing. Last but not least, the monetary rewards offered by Facebook for each vulnerability and general Bug Bounty Hunting advice will be shared with the community. Bio: Arne Swinnen is an IT Security Consultant at NVISO, a Belgian Cyber Security Consulting firm. Arne specializes in Application Security and Digital Forensics. He co-organized the first edition of the Cyber Security Challenge Belgium in 2015, a National cyber security competition designed exclusively for Belgian students. Arne was a speaker at Black Hat USA and BruCON in 2014, presenting novel anti-virus detection and evasion techniques (“One Packer to Rule Them All”). Since 2015, he is also listed on Facebook’s Bug Bounty Half of Fame''.

Christian Schneider & Alvaro Muñoz - Serial Killer: Silently Pwning your Java Endpoints
Abstract: In this session we begin with modelling the attack surface of Java deserialization, which often leads to remote code execution (RCE), by showcasing vulnerabilities we found in modern and widely used applications and frameworks. We extend existing research about risks of deserialization broadening the attack surface. After a live demo of getting a Meterpreter shell in a modern Java endpoint setup we delve into the exploitation styles for this vulnerability to lay the foundation of the first of three key takeaways for the attendees. The first key takeaway is identification of test types that should be executed during a dynamic assessment of an application in order to find this kind of vulnerability. This includes analyzing the deserialization interface and using blackbox tests to create payloads with gadgets matching the application’s classpath to verify the RCE. Discussion extends to cover indirect deserialization interfaces that use non-binary data formats, such as XML-based interfaces, which can also act as a driver for deserialization within the application. The next key takeaway covers the realm of static code analysis (SAST). We present code patterns security reviewers should look for when doing whitebox assessments of applications or frameworks. This is especially interesting for code offering dynamic functionality including AOP, generic mappings, reflection, interceptors, etc. - all of which have a high probability of including code that can facilitate as deserialization gadgets and thus help the attackers in exploiting deserialization vulnerabilities. In this section we present the techniques used to find the vulnerabilities within the popular frameworks showcased during the live demo at the session’s start. Finally we conclude with tips on implementing different techniques of hardening measures for applications offering deserialisation interfaces (either direct binary deserialization interfaces or indirect XML-based ones) to give the attendees the third key takeaway: protecting applications properly. This includes ways to verify data integrity prior to deserialization and ways to properly inspect the data before it’s handled by the Java deserialization process.
