| Don’t Be Another Headline- Uncovering Secrets By Leveraging Scanning Tools |
Giovanni Verrienti |
With the modernization of cloud, development processes and applications, DevOps is constantly working to improve their own Continuous Integration (CI) and Continuous Deployment (CD) processes by providing higher quality code at greater speeds. Automation becomes an essential key-factor to build code and applications “on the fly” and at the same time, to deploy applications continuously into production. But quite often this also increases the security risks. New capabilities can help developers to scan any code within their own CI/CD pipeline, to detect secrets, API tokens, certificates, keys and other vulnerabilities that are exposed in the code, and to address any misconfiguration that could lead to unwanted data exfiltration or targeted attacks. |

| Stellar Cyber - How to be Successful with SecOps in a Downturn | SecOps groups are challenged more than ever as budgets tighten and cyber-threats continue to rise unabated. Ideally, SecOps should be a way to safely and confidently enable your security group (and your whole organization) to run leaner and more efficiently. Metrics are the foundation for SecOps, but you have to ensure that those metrics tell the real story, rather than keeping your analysts frustrated by chasing meaningless alerts.To do this, you need to assess your detection and response tools and move to a more holistic platform that integrates with your Check Point firewall and gives you all of the metrics across your attack surface in one pane of glass, detects even the most complex attacks, and presents contextual information about exactly how to respond. And responding to attacks should mean more than locking down assets – when your analysts respond, the platform should enable them to create playbooks so the platform can automatically prevent similar scenarios from having any impact at all. We will cover these ideas in this session and give use case examples of how to succeed. | ||
| Tufin - Centralize and Automate Firewall Cleanup and Policy Optimization | If you aren't automating rule cleanup and policy optimization across as many enforcement points as possible – on-premises and cloud -- you and your team are likely wasting thousands of work hours a year.

| Black Basta and the Unnoticed Delivery | Raman Ladutska Reverse Engineer, Check Point |
As reported by Check Point at the end of H1 2022, 1 out of 40 organizations worldwide were impacted by ransomware attacks, which constitutes a worrying 59% increase over the past year. The ransomware business continues to grow in gargantuan proportions due to the lucrative payments demanded – and often received – by cybercrime gangs. With the addition of double extortion, ransomware attacks became even more appealing: even if the victim refuses to pay, the stolen private data may be sold in a Darknet forum for a considerable sum. Judging by the attention to detail we observed in a recent Black Basta incident spotted by the Check Point Incident Response Team, the operators behind this ransomware also have an impressive organizational structure. | |

| Can You Trust a File’s Digital Signature? New Zloader Campaign Exploits Microsoft’s Signature Verification Putting Users at Risk | Golan Cohen Team Leader, Check Point |
Last seen in August 2021, Zloader, a banking malware designed to steal user credentials and private information, is back with a simple yet sophisticated infection chain. Previous Zloader campaigns, which were seen in 2020, used malicious documents, adult sites and Google ads to infect systems. Evidence of the new campaign was first seen around early November 2021. The techniques incorporated in the infection chain include the use of legitimate remote management software (RMM) to gain initial access to the target machine. | |
| Malicious Package Detection: Using AI To Detect Malicious Open Source Packages | Ori Abramovsky Head of Data Science Cloud-Guard Spectral, Check Point |
Threat actors constantly try to attack open-source users by making them to install malicious packages using techniques like name-squatting or by mimicking popular packages descriptions. Installing these packages enables the threat actors to achieve malicious targets such as to steal private data and personal credentials of the developers using them. The Check Point Cloud-Guard Spectral Data Science team constantly detects and discloses malicious open-source packages. In the session we will review how we use Artificial Intelligence to fight these malicious packages as well as walking through a few of the more notable packages we've disclosed | |
| The New Era of Hacktivism – State-Mobilized Hacktivism Proliferates to the West and Beyond | Sergey Shykevich Group Manager, Check Point |
Check Point Research outlines a new model of hacktivism now trending worldwide. Five characteristics mark today’s form of hacktivism, according to researchers: political ideology, leadership hierarchy, formal recruiting, advanced tools and public relations. CPR gives the hacktivist group Killnet as an example of the latest model, detailing its attacks by country and attack timeline. CPR warns that hacktivism that originates in conflict-related geographies has already proliferated worldwide. | |
| Google is On Guard: Sharks Shall Not Pass! |
Alex Shamshur Raman Ladutska |
When searching for an anti-virus (AV) solution to protect your mobile, the last thing one would expect is for it to make your device vulnerable to malware. This is what the CPR team encountered while analyzing suspicious applications found on the Google Play store. These applications were disguised as genuine AV solutions, but in reality, users downloaded and installed an Android banker and stealer called Sharkbot. This malware implements a geofencing feature and evasion techniques, which makes it stand out from the rest of malware families. It also makes use of what is called domain generation algorithm (DGA), an aspect rarely used in the world of Android malware. |

| Browser Protection in the World of Zero Trust | Adi Goldshtein Harel Adv., Product Manager, Check Point |
In the post-pandemic atmosphere, organizations adapted multiple changes to their workforce. These changes introduced new policies such as Bring Your On Device (BYOD) and moving to working from anywhere. The usage of unmanaged devices (such as BYOD) creates security challenges that organizations didn’t face before. Who has access to the organization data? How is the data used? And more. Together with these changes, the rapid move to the cloud, and the on-going shift to use SaaS infrastructure made the browser transformed from “another application on the desktop” to the main application used by the employee. As the intersection point for users, access, data and much more, the browser allows you to get the needed visibility and controls over these unmanaged devices. Come learn about the challenges and how Check Point Harmony Browse provides an extensive solution to these problems and more using an innovative nano-agent located within the browser of choice. | |

| Why Second-Best Security Will Get You Breached | Moti Sagey VP, Strategic Marketing, Check Point |
History tells us that there comes a time when almost every new innovative service starts to lose ground to a “good enough” competitor. Like TV’s, Medicines, smartphones etc. With the huge growth of attacks and breaches in the past year such as: Log4J, SolarWinds, Kaseya / Revil, Colonial Pipeline to name a few we see a pattern: Organizations that invested a lot in “good enough” security products lost the Cyber battle. It’s apparent that “good enough” or "2nd best" though fitting for smartphones or cars, could spell trouble as this mindset creeps into the cyber security industry. This will be the focus of Moti session, what makes a security solution the best, and what does BEST stand for according to our customers? |
