Teaching, Tools & Presentation Philosophy
Broad vs. Deep
6
Teaching Security+
• CompTIA Security+ is more broad than deep• No single domain or topic is significantly in depth• When teaching Security+ very important to keep moving• Going too deep in a topic means you won’t be able to cover the
material
7
Tools When Teaching Security+
• Tools for students likewise need be more broad than deep• Tempting to spend 4 weeks on configuring Server 2012 security• But very important to keep moving• Reflection of Hands-On Projects in Security+ Guide to Network
Security Fundamentals 5e
8
Presentation Security+ Tools
• This presentation of Tools for Teaching Security+ is more broad than deep• Will not go into deep dive on any single tool; otherwise won’t be able
to cover the material• Few tools demonstrated while most introduced• None of these in Security+ Guide to Network Security Fundamentals
5e Hands-On Projects• Presented where fall in current chapter• Tools for student Hands-On Projects and demos

How To Make Money In Security
11
Carbanak
• Most cybercrime targets consumers and businesses, stealing account information like passwords and other data that then lets thieves cash out hijacked bank accounts or create fake credit/debit cards• Group now specializes in breaking into banks directly and then use
ways to funnel cash from the financial institution itself• Carbanak deployed malware via phishing scams to get inside of
computers at 100+ banks and steal between $300 million to $1 billion

Bug Bounties
• Organizations pay for vulnerabilities that are reported by researchers• In 2014 Google paid out $150,000 to a researcher for uncovering a multi-vulnerability
chain that exploited the Google Chrome OS• Google set aside an astonishing $3.14 million (yes, million) for paying for these "bug
bounties."• In 2014 Facebook was able to patch 61 high-severity vulnerabilities, twice as many as the
previous year• Facebook pays a minimum of $500 per reported vulnerability with no upper limit for the
high-value vulnerability (that's right, the sky's the limit)• In 2014 it paid $1.3 million to 321 researchers from 65 countries (India had the most
submissions at 196 while the U.S. was third with 61)• The top five individuals who disclosed a problem to Facebook earned a combined
$256,750.
18
Hacker Bounty Hunter
• Two U.S. government agencies are offering a $3 million reward for information leading to the arrest or conviction of Evgeniy Mikhailovich Bogachev who is suspected of having served as an administrator for the destructive Gameover Zeus botnet • Over a two-year period Gameover Zeus targeted banking credentials resulted in
financial losses exceeding $100 million. • Bogachev is listed on the FBI's Cyber's Most Wanted list (did you know such a
list even existed?). • The rewards for the other five members on this list are a mere $1 million each. • Here's your first clue in tracking down Bogachev: he's believed to be living in
Russia (good luck).

Information Security Specialist
• Mundane job in information security• According to Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Information Security
Analysts with a bachelor's degree and less than five years' experience had median pay in 2013 of $86,130 (the most recent data available)• Over the next seven years these positions are expect to grow at a rate
of 37%, or "much faster than average."
21
Information Security Employment
• In the past security was rarely outsourced – but that now changing• The increased use of cloud computing is particularly concerning• By next year about 10% of overall IT security enterprise capabilities
will be delivered as a cloud service• Gartner says by 2018 over half of all organizations will have to rely on
external security services firms that specialize in data protection, risk assessment, and infrastructure management
22
23
Value of Degree
24
Value of Certification
• 72% of employers use IT certifications as a requirement for specific job roles• 66% of employers say that IT certifications are "very valuable"
(increase from 30% in 2011)• 60% of employers often use IT certifications to confirm a candidate's
subject matter knowledge or expertise• 65% of employers said if there are two otherwise equally qualified
candidates for a job then will turn to IT certifications as the deciding factor
25
Value of Security+ Certification
• Foote Partners recently released its "IT Skills Demand and Pay Trends Report“: Which certifications will carry the most weight throughout 2015 in terms of pay and demand?• Charted pay growth over the last 3, 6 and 12 months for 337 different IT
certifications and came up with the "historical pay premium performance." • Over last 3 months the market pay value of a Security+ certificate
increased 30% (those with Security+ certification earned that much more than without)• Over last 12 months the market pay value for the Security+ certificate
increased a whopping 40%

Network+
Tools for Teaching Security+
28
Network Security
• There are many different terms that are used when referring to security, like cybersecurity or information assurance• Network security still common• Network viewed as the protecting wall around which client computers
could be kept safe: secure network keep attackers away from devices • Not foolproof
• Too many entry points that circumvent the network and allow malware to enter like infected USB flash drive
• Malware started taking advantage of common network protocols, such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), and could not always be detected or blocked by network security devices
29
Network Security• Network security still important• Not all applications are designed and written with security and
reliability in mind, so it falls on the network to provide protection• Network-delivered services can scale better for larger environments
and can complement server and application functionality• Attacker who can successfully penetrate a computer network may
have access to hundreds or even thousands of desktop systems, servers, and storage devices• Organizations should make network defenses one of the first priorities
in protecting information• Network security is alive and well
30
CompTIA Network+ N10-006
• Feb 28 2015 CompTIA released new Network+ exam (N10-006)• Increased emphasis on security• It has a separate domain just on security: "3.0 Network Security" • Although the percentage of the exam that covers network security is
officially listed as 18%, according to CompTIA the overall coverage of security in the new Network+ exam is actually double that at 37%• Exam also has extended coverage of wireless local area networks and
security and covers about 30% of objectives found on Certified Wireless Network Administrator (CWNA) exam

Useless User Tricks - 1
• Even when users attempt to create stronger passwords, they generally follow predictable patterns• Appending - Typically only add a number after letters (caitlin1 or
cheer99); if they add all more it in sequence letters+punctuation+number (amanda.7 or chris#6). • Replacing – A zero is used instead of the letter o (passw0rd), the digit
1 for the letter i (denn1s), or a dollar sign for an s (be$tfriend). • Attackers are aware of these patterns in passwords and can search for
them, dramatically weakening passwords and make it easier for attackers to crack them.
102
Useless User Tricks - 2
1. Take the first letter of the site’s name in lower case (Gmail.com -> g)2. Add the last two digits of your birth year but reverse them (1993 -> 93 -> 39)3. Add a +4. Add the next four letters of the site’s name in upper case ("gmail.com" ->
MAIL)5. Add a -6. Add the last four digits of your phone number backwards (877-555-1234 ->
4321)• Your new secure password is g93+MAIL-4321 : SECURE!• Your new secure password is y93+AHOO-4321 : NOT SECURE
103
Useless User Tricks - 3• The Qwerty Card is a simple plastic card laid out like a
Qwerty keyboard and also has a unique code like sh(/J3Hq. • You add your own secret password (shine) to the code
and then append the encoded version of the site’s name using the character map on the card•Amazon becomes .u.rqf which is added to the
previous strings to generate the complete password sh(/J3Hqshine.u.rqf
104
Useless User Tricks - 3• Spacebar code + Secret word + Site name
105
Password Principles
1. Any password that can be memorized is a weak password
2. Any password that is repeated is a weak password
