  1. Software Security Initiative James Walden Northern Kentucky University

  2. Topics • Security Operations • Web Application Firewalls • Build Security In Maturity Model CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  3. Software Security Practices • Code Reviews • Risk Analysis • Penetration Testing • Security Testing • Abuse Cases • Security Operations AbuseCases Risk Analysis Code Reviews + Static Analysis Security Testing Penetration Testing Security Operations Requirements Design Coding Testing Maintenance CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  4. Security Operations User security notes • Software should be secure by default. • Enabling certain features/configs may have risks. • User needs to be informed of security risks. Incident response • What happens when a vulnerability is reported? • How do you communicate with users? • How do you send updates to users? CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  5. Code Deployment Manage deployment process • Change management process. • Scrub debug/test code from software. • Use automated tools for deployment. Maintain three sets of servers • Development • Staging • Production CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  6. Web Application Firewalls Analyze + filter HTTP traffic • Intrusion Detection • Intrusion Prevent Open Source WAFs • AQTronix WebKnight • Breach ModSecurity Commercial WAFs • Armorlogic Profense • Breach WebDefend • Citrix Application Firewall • Fortify Defender CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  7. Modes of Operation • Bridge: transparent bridging firewall. • Router: install at single point of entry. • Reverse Proxy: traffic redirected to flow through WAF by DNS or routing. • Embedded: server plugin; no need to configure network but only works with some web servers. CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  8. Modes of Operation Bridge or Router Embedded Reverse Proxy CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  9. SSL • Terminates SSL: Reconfigure network to move SSL operations to WAF itself. WAF to server communication can be plaintext or SSL encrypted. • Passively decrypts SSL: WAF decrypts SSL traffic using copy of server’s SSL private key. Data travels untouched to web server. • Occurs after SSL: Embedded WAFs can be posititioned to analyze traffic after server decrypts SSL data. CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  10. Traffic Blocking • Connection Intermediation: Traffic intercepted by WAF. Attacks blocked by not forwarding packets to destination. • Connection Reset: Traffic inspected by WAF, which blocks attacks by resetting TCP connections. • 3rd Party Blocking: Traffic inspected by WAF, which notifies other devices to block. CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  11. Traffic Blocking WAFs can block • IP addresses • TCP connections • HTTP requests • Application sessions • Application users • Too many new requests/sessions WAFs can rewrite parts of HTTP request • Request headers • Response headers • Cookies • URLs • HTTP message bodies CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  12. Canonicalization WAFs convert data to standard form • URL-decoding • Paths (., .., \) • Mixed case • Whitespace condensation • HTML entity decoding • Escaped cahracter decoding • Unicode standardization CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  13. Signatures and Rules Signatures • Text strings • Regular expressions Rules • Signatures + • Operators (length, field) • Logical expressions • Control flow • Session management CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  14. BSI Maturity Model Guide for building and improving a SSI. Based on survey of top software security programs: • Adobe • Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation • EMC • Google • Microsoft • QUALCOMM • Wells Fargo Software Security Initiative Statistics • 2-10 years old (average 4) • 12-100 people (average 41) • Approximate 100:1 developer:security person ratio. CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  15. Using the Maturity Model Executive leadership • Accountability and empowerment. • Difficultieis: Grassroots and network security. Identify organization security goals. • Identify which practices fit best with organizational culture. Use all 12 practices. • Better to put some level 1 activities in each practice in place than go to level 3 in one. • Not necessary to do all practices in level 1 before moving to level 2. CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering

  16. Software Security Framework Governance: Practices that help manage and measure a software security program. Intelligence: Practices producing collection sof corporate knowledge used in swsec. SSDL Touchpoints: Practices associated with analysis and assurance of particular software development artifacts & processes. Deployment: Practices interfacing with network security and software configuration abd maintenance organizations. CSC 666: Secure Software Engineering
