Top Security Predictions for 2014
As 2013 draws to a close, FireEye researchers are already looking ahead to 2014 and the shifting threat landscape. Expect fewer Java zero-day exploits and more browser-based ones. Watering-hole attacks may supplant spear-phishing attacks. And thanks to an emerging class of mobile malware, the security landscape is about to get a lot more complicated.
Those are just a few of the predictions of the FireEye engineering and labs team, which assembled a forecast for the coming year.
We set out to get 10 predictions — but got 15. Nostradamus would be proud. (Predictions after the break…)
- Sophisticated threat actors will continue to hide behind traditional mass-market crimeware tools to make identification and attribution hard for network defenders. Prediction by Darien Kindlund.
- More attack binaries will use stolen or valid code signatures. These signatures allow malware to spoof as legitimate executables and bypass traditional anti-virus looking for those characteristics. Prediction by Amanda Stewart.
- Mobile malware will further complicate the threat landscape. We'll see blended threat between desktop and mobile gaining access to mobile-based authentication (such as SMS confirmation numbers). Because cybercriminals go where the clicks are, expect to see a continued focus on attacking these devices. Prediction by Yogi Chandiramani and Tim Stahl.
- Java zero-day exploits may be less prevalent. Despite the comparative ease of Java exploit development, the frequent release of new Java zero-day exploits stopped after February 2013. The reason is unclear, but may be due in part to security warning pop-ups in Java 1.7 or increased attention from white-hat security researchers. Another possibility: too few people are using vulnerable versions of Java, giving exploit authors little incentive to continue finding more bugs. Prediction by Yichong Lin.
- Browser-based vulnerabilities may be more common. Attackers are becoming increasingly adept at bypassing ASLR (Address Space Layout Randomization) in the browser. And in contrast to the slowing pace of newly found Java and classic input-parsing vulnerabilities, those involving browser zero-day vulnerabilities continue apace. Prediction by Dan Caselden.
- Malware authors will adopt stealthier techniques for command-and-control (CnC) communications. They will tunnel communications over legitimate protocols and abuse legitimate Internet services to relay traffic and evade detection. This shift reflects the logical escalation by attackers who are increasingly hindered by network defenses. Prediction by Thoufique Haq.
- Watering-hole attacks and social media targeting will increasingly supplant spear-phishing emails. Watering holes and social-media networks provide a neutral zone where targets let their guard down. The trust factor is not a big obstacle, and minimal effort is required to lure the target in to a trap. Prediction by Thoufique Haq.
- More malware will fill the supply chain. Expect more malicious code in BIOS and firmware updates. Prediction by Bryce Boland.
- New heap-spray techniques will emerge because of Adobe Flash's "click to play" mitigation (requiring user interaction to execute potentially malicious Flash content). In recent months we saw Flash being used to spray the heap during exploitation. But since Adobe implemented the "click-to-play" feature inside Microsoft Word documents, this approach no longer works. The most recent zero-day docx/tiff exploit, for instance, didn't use Flash for this reason. Prediction by Alex Lanstein.
- Attackers will find more ways to defeat automated (sandbox) analysis systems, such as triggering on reboots, mouse clicks, applications closing and so on. A prime example: malware triggering at a specific time, similar to what we have seen in Japan and Korea. Attackers are focusing on evading sandbox systems, betting that this effort will make their malware dramatically more powerful. Prediction by Alex Lanstein.
- More crimeware will destroy the operating systems (OSs) of targeted systems as a last step of an attack. Lately, European authorities have been more successful in catching cyber gangs. A new feature in Zeus that wipes the OS could help cybercriminals clean up any evidence and avoid arrest. Prediction by Jason Steer.
- More "digital quartermasters" behind targeted attack campaigns. In other words, Sunshop DQ is only the beginning. More threat actors will centralize their development and logistics operations to create an economy of scale and industrialize malware. Prediction by Darien Kindlund and Bryce Boland.
- With increasing collaboration between targeted organizations around the globe, we will see cybercrime gangs identified and shut down, thanks to clues that tie separate attacks to common campaigns and threat actors. Prediction by Greg Day.
- Cybercrime gets personal. Criminals will increasingly recognize that specific information is more valuable than generic data. As a result, we will see more attackers shifting their focus to high-value data. Prediction by Greg Day.
- Detecting advanced malware will take even longer than it does now. Depending on whom you believe (Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, Ponemon Institute, and others), detecting a breach can take 80 to 100 days, and remediating it can take 120 to 150 days. We expect those detection times to increase in 2014. More alarmingly, remediation times will accelerate even faster as threat actors grow more sophisticated in their ability to embed themselves within targeted organizations for extended periods. Prediction by Rudolph Araujo.

A student in Dawn Mack's government class at Athens High School leafs through a voter guide.
- Filed Under
On Oct. 18, 19 days before Election Day, a group of students at Lakeview High School watched a replay of the second debate between President Barack Obama and Republican challenger Mitt Romney.
On Monday, 15 days to go, students in Dawn Mack's government class at Athens Junior-Senior High School reviewed a copy of the Detroit Free Press election guide. The students were asked to research three biographical statements and three policy statements from Michigan's U.S. Senate candidates.

|Reliability of a semi-quantitative method for dermal exposure assessment (DREAM).
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 15069425 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Valid and reliable semi-quantitative dermal exposure assessment methods for epidemiological research and for occupational hygiene practice, applicable for different chemical agents, are practically nonexistent. The aim of this study was to assess the reliability of a recently developed semi-quantitative dermal exposure assessment method (DREAM) by (i) studying inter-observer agreement, (ii) assessing the effect of individual observers on dermal exposure estimates for different tasks, and (iii) comparing inter-observer agreement for ranking of body parts according to their exposure level. Four studies were performed in which a total of 29 observers (mainly occupational hygienists) were asked to fill in DREAM while performing side-by-side observations for different tasks, comprising dermal exposures to liquids, solids, and vapors. Intra-class correlation coefficients ranged from 0.68 to 0.87 for total dermal exposure estimates, indicating good to excellent inter-observer agreement. The effects of individual observers on task estimates were estimated using a linear mixed effect model with logged DREAM estimates as explanatory variable; "task", "company/department", and the interaction of "task" and "company/department" as fixed effects; and "observer" as a random effect. Geometric mean (GM) dermal exposure estimates for different tasks were estimated by taking the exponent of the predicted betas for the tasks. By taking the exponent of the predicted observer's intercept (exp(omega i)), a multiplier (M(O)) was estimated for each observer. The effects of individual observers on task estimates were relatively small, as the maximum predicted mean observers' multiplier was only a factor 2, while predicted GMs of dermal exposure estimates for tasks ranged from 0 to 1226, and none of the predicted individual observers' multipliers differed significantly from 1 (t-test alpha = 0.05). Inter-observer agreement for ranking of dermal exposure of nine body parts was moderate to good, as median values of Spearman correlation coefficients for pairs of observers ranged from 0.29 to 0.93. DREAM provides reproducible results for a broad range of tasks with dermal exposures to liquids, solids, as well as vapors. DREAM appears to offer a useful advance for estimations of dermal exposure both for epidemiological research and for occupational hygiene practice.

Reflection: The Silence of St.Joseph
The silence of Joseph draws us to our knees in worship of the Word made flesh in whose presence all words of men lose their meaning.
The silence of Joseph directs a symphony of silence which stills the universe in adoration of the One in Whom the New creation has come.
"�His is a silence permeated by contemplation of the mystery of God, in an attitude of total availability to his divine wishes. �Let us allow ourselves to be "infected" by the silence of St Joseph! We have much need of it in a world which is often too noisy, which does not encourage reflection and listening to the voice of God." (Pope Benedict XVI, December 18, 2005)
I offer this reflection now in response:
The Silence of Joseph echoes in a world of noise turning a cacophony of self love into a melody of self surrender.
The silence of Joseph is a seed which bears the fruit of holiness and courage.
The silence of Joseph drowns the din of sorrow and silences the wailing of the weak
The silence of Joseph draws the world to a cave in Bethlehem where God is born as man and man is born again
The silence of Joseph draws us to our knees in worship of the Word made flesh in whose presence all words of men lose their meaning.
The silence of Joseph directs a symphony of silence which stills the universe in adoration of the One in Whom the New creation has come.
Let us join our silence to the Silence of Joseph.

i have been meditating on the Silence of St. Joseph for many years. i have been impressed by the total surrender of a man who had some standing in the society he belonged as a public figure a carpenter is always needed by the people in the village and Joseph must have been very much in the public eye any thing that happened to him must have been in the public news but he when he comes to know that it is God who wants him to accept this fact accepts it humbly silently does not bother about the public outcry.
i used to call him a dreaming saint many of his messages along with his silence have come also in the dreams.

Fasting & Abstinence
'Christ Himself said that His disciples would fast once He had departed' Lk. 5:35
Abstinence. The law of abstinence requires a Catholic 14 years of age until death to abstain from eating meat on Fridays in honor of the Passion of Jesus on Good Friday. Salt and freshwater species of fish, amphibians, reptiles and shellfish are permitted.
Fasting. The law of fasting requires a Catholic from the 18th Birthday (Canon 97) to the 59th Birthday (i.e. the beginning of the 60th year, a year which will be completed on the 60th birthday) to reduce the amount of food eaten from normal. The Church defines this as one meal a day, and two smaller meals which if added together would not exceed the main meal.

In two weeks, the Reno City Council and the Washoe County Commission will vote on separate proposals to keep the Reno Aces in town.
The owners of the baseball team who also built its $58 million stadium need to refinance a $55 million short-term construction loan that's due in 14 months. The public funding that was going to pay for that refinancing dried up with the recession and now the owners say new sources of public financing are needed - namely $1.5 million in taxpayer dollars from Reno and Washoe County coffers.

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. - State Attorney Jeff Ashton says Orange County officials involved in the "textgate" scandal broke the law when they deleted text messages.
A WESH 2 News investigation prompted the probe of local leaders and deleted text messages.
Ashton's office released findings Wednesday morning of what his office discovered during a probe of Orange County's texting scandal.
In September, local Orange County Commissioners are said to have text messaged back and forth with lobbyists before a critical vote over earned sick time.
Most of those messages were deleted and the measure was blocked.
"The county pretty much threw up their hands and said, 'Well we can't retrieve those messages,' and so there was no holding those officials accountable," said Citizens for a Greater Orange County spokeswoman Stephanie Porta. "So we decided to expand the lawsuit and include those individuals."
The WESH 2 News investigation found that Commissioners Fred Brummer, Jennifer Thompson, former Commissioner John Martinez and Mayor Teresa Jacobs' chief of staff, deleted messages from the day of a public hearing, when the board shot down the sick pay referendum.
The county changed the way it saves records involving text messages.
Also on Wednesday, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement is expected to release what it found on several of the phones.
If commissioners broke the law, they could be charged with destruction of public records, punishable by up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Apple Developer Center undergoes extended maintenance [U]
updated 03:29 pm EDT, Fri July 19, 2013
Downtime tops 24 hours
[Updated with news of membership extensions] Apple's Developer Center portal is in the middle of an extended maintenance outage, visitors note. Word of the downtime first emerged on Thursday; unusually, however, the Center is still closed as of mid-afternoon Eastern time on Friday. "This site is undergoing maintenance for an extended period today. Thanks for your patience," the website's placeholder message reads. A new more extended message has appeared on the site, assuring developers that any memberships that were near expiration will be automatically extended beyond the downtime.
For developers the portal is an extremely important resource, offering up not only documentation but essential files. At the moment that includes betas of OS X Mavericks, iOS 7, and Xcode 5, all products scheduled to ship to the public sometime this fall. As the wait has dragged on, Apple has changed the message on the site to add that the maintenance "is taking longer than expected." The site is still down as of 9:30PM ET.

Snowball fight turns into big brawl at Air Force Academy
DENVER — The Air Force Academy said 27 cadets were injured in a brawl during an unofficial ritual marking the first snowfall of the season.
Six cadets were taken to an off-campus hospital upon the Oct. 25 ruckus and have been released, the academy said on Wednesday. The others were treated at a cadet clinic.
The injuries included concussions, cuts and a human bite, and some cadets required stitches, Brig. Gen. Dana Born wrote in an internal email that was provided to media outlets. Academy officials confirmed the email is authentic.
Born is dean of faculty.
Academy officials were treating the incident as a "teachable moment," said Lt. Col. John Bryan, a school spokesman. He said he did not know of any plans to discipline cadets.
Brig. Gen. Gregory Lengyel, the commandant of cadets, said in a statement that the brawl was unacceptable.
Lengyel did not say how many cadets were involved but said it was a "relatively small number."
The ritual is called "First Shirt/First Snow" and involves freshmen trying to throw cadet first sergeants — known as first shirts — into the snow.
"This ritual has devolved to become increasingly violent, with significant numbers of cadets requiring medical care over the past two years," Born wrote in her email.
"What used to be (freshmen) throwing the first shirt into the snow has turned into a brawl between upperclassmen defending the first sergeant and the (freshmen) trying to capture the first sergeant."
It wasn't immediately known how many cadets were injured last year.
"Obviously, this has gotten out of hand and cannot be repeated," Born wrote.
