Welcome to the Vast World of Cybersecurity Tools

“I want to modernize my infrastructure, adopt DevOps, and develop apps

faster...BUT I need to make sure I do all of this securely AND still pass all of my

security compliance audits. ”

(Quote from ANY security-conscious Red Hat customer looking to adopt OpenShift, OpenStack, etc)

68% of breaches took months or longer to discover2

99% of the vulnerabilities exploited by the end of 2020 will continue to be ones known by security and IT professionals at the time of the incident3

2018 speech by David Hogue, a National Security Agency official, who said the NSA had not responded to an intrusion that exploited a zero-day vulnerability in over two years.

81% of hacking-related breaches leveraged either stolen and/or weak passwords1

DEVELOPERS AREN’T SECURITY EXPERTSL7 ATTACKS ON THE RISE

“In the last 6 months we have seen a large upward trend of Layer 7 based DDoS attacks… On average seeing around 160 attacks a day, with some days spiking up to over 1000 attacks.”

Progression

Progression

Security Network Governance

FedRAMPThe Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) is a government-wide program that provides a standardized approach to security assessment, authorization, and continuous monitoring for cloud products and services. FedRAMP enables Agencies to rapidly adapt from old, insecure legacy IT to mission-enabling, secure, and cost effective cloud-based IT.

Security• It’s FedRAMP so it’s secure?•Do I go GOV or Commercial cloud?•How do I? (Island syndrome)•Evaluate product sets and functions (Prescriptive)

SA-11 Developer Security Testing and Evaluation (M) (H)The organization requires the developer of the information system, system component, or information system service to:(a) Create and implement a security assessment plan;(b) Perform [Selection (one or more): unit; integration; system; regression] testing/evaluation at [Assignment: organization-defined depth and coverage];(c) Produce evidence of the execution of the security assessment plan and the results of the security testing/evaluation;(d) Implement a verifiable flaw remediation process; and(e) Correct flaws identified during security testing/evaluation.This is where

Automation can help

Shared Responsibility

Securing the cloud today and well into the future…

“Security is a process, NOT a product.” – Bruce Schneier

(American cryptographer, security blogger, and author)

● Security must be built-in from the start , not bolted on○ Security must be continuous throughout the stack

using a defense-in-depth approach to protect all layers of the stack holistically

Built-in, Continuous, Defense-in-Depth, Holistic,Long-Term vs ‘Band-Aid’ approach to security

RED HAT’S APPROACH TO SECURITY

Let Red Hat be your voice in community, government, & professional groups that focus on security standards & implementations.

Rely on Red Hat to partner with security teams from other vendors, agencies, & working groups.This includes access to vulnerability information before it is public.

Customer Example

‘DevSecOps in a Box’: DHS @ Red Hat Innovation Labs

All DevSecOps Red Hat Innovation Labs Residencies:

● Push button infrastructure with recommendations on how to get started○ Integrating security tooling into CI/CD DevOps pipelines○ Building takes place during residency○ Customers transfer what they learned in the residency to their own environment to evaluate

impacts to their current processes

DHS documented their entire Innovation Labs & DevSecOps journey on Github:

● Quote from DHS: ○ ‘Successful adoption of DevSecOps Best Practices through Red Hat Labs Residency’
