This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much debate has been given as to whether computer security is improved through the full disclosure of security vulnerabilities versus keeping the problems private and unspoken. Although there is still tension between those who feel strongly about the subject, a middle ground of responsible disclosure seems to have emerged. Unfortunately, just as we’ve moved into an era with more responsible disclosure, it would seem that a market has emerged for security vulnerabilities and zero day exploits. Disclosure of Security Vulnerabilities: Legal and Ethical Issues considers both the ethical and legal issues involved with the disclosure of vulnerabilities and explores the ways in which law might respond to these challenges.

Download or read book Recommendations for Federal Vulnerability Disclosure Guidelines written by Kim B. Schaffer and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Receiving reports on suspected security vulnerabilities in information systems is one of the best ways for developers and services to become aware of issues. Formalizing actions to accept, assess, and manage vulnerability disclosure reports can help reduce known security vulnerabilities. This document recommends guidance for establishing a federal vulnerability disclosure framework, properly handling vulnerability reports, and communicating the mitigation and/or remediation of vulnerabilities. The framework allows for local resolution support while providing federal oversight and should be applied to all software, hardware, and digital services under federal control.

Book excerpt: Ill-intentioned actors are rapidly developing the technological means to exploit vulnerabilities in the web assets, software, hardware, and networked infrastructure of governments around the world. Numerous jurisdictions have adopted the policy approach of facilitating coordinated vulnerability disclosure (CVD) as one means to better secure the public sector's systems, through which external security researchers are provided a predictable and cooperative process to disclose security flaws for patching before they are exploited. Canada is falling behind its peers and allies in adopting such an approach.A global scan of vulnerability disclosure policy approaches indicates that 60 percent of G20 member countries provide distinct and clear disclosure processes for vulnerabilities involving government systems, with many providing clarity regarding the disclosure process and expectations for security researchers regarding communication and acceptable activity. The Netherlands and the US are particularly leading the way when it comes to providing comprehensive policy and pragmatic solutions for external vulnerability disclosure, acting as a learning model for Canada. Both countries have also begun to provide explicit legal clarification regarding acceptable security research activity, particularly in the context of coordinated vulnerability disclosure. In Canada, there exists no legal or policy framework regarding security research and vulnerability disclosure done in good faith; that is, done with the intent and in such a way to repair the vulnerability while causing minimal harm. Absent this framework, discovering and disclosing vulnerabilities may result in a security researcher facing liability under the Criminal Code, as well as potentially the Copyright Act, if exemptions do not apply. Whistleblower legislation in Canada generally would also not apply to vulnerability disclosure except in very limited, specific instances. Further, Canada's Centre for Cyber Security -- and its parent agency the Communications Security Establishment -- currently have practices and policies that may discourage people from disclosing vulnerabilities and, on top of this, are also opaque about how such vulnerabilities are handled.The cumulative effect of this approach in Canada means that there is no straightforward or transparent path for a person wishing to responsibly disclose a security vulnerability found in the computer systems used by the Government of Canada -- resulting in possible non-disclosure, public disclosure before remediation, or otherwise enabling the use of security vulnerabilities by attackers in ways that could jeopardize the security of Canada's computer systems and the people that they serve. In light of these findings, we advocate for the following three policy solutions in Canada to remedy these gaps: 1. Canada needs a policy framework for good faith vulnerability discovery and disclosure;2. Canada should carefully implement coordinated vulnerability disclosure procedures for the federal government's computer systems, and draw on emerging best practices as it does so; and3. Vulnerabilities disclosed to the government from external actors should be kept separate from the government's handling of vulnerabilities uncovered internally in the course of Canada's defensive and offensive intelligence efforts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As long as humans write software, the key to successful software security is making the software development program process more efficient and effective. Although the approach of this textbook includes people, process, and technology approaches to software security, Practical Core Software Security: A Reference Framework stresses the people element of software security, which is still the most important part to manage as software is developed, controlled, and exploited by humans. The text outlines a step-by-step process for software security that is relevant to today’s technical, operational, business, and development environments. It focuses on what humans can do to control and manage a secure software development process using best practices and metrics. Although security issues will always exist, students learn how to maximize an organization’s ability to minimize vulnerabilities in software products before they are released or deployed by building security into the development process. The authors have worked with Fortune 500 companies and have often seen examples of the breakdown of security development lifecycle (SDL) practices. The text takes an experience-based approach to apply components of the best available SDL models in dealing with the problems described above. Software security best practices, an SDL model, and framework are presented in this book. Starting with an overview of the SDL, the text outlines a model for mapping SDL best practices to the software development life cycle (SDLC). It explains how to use this model to build and manage a mature SDL program. Exercises and an in-depth case study aid students in mastering the SDL model. Professionals skilled in secure software development and related tasks are in tremendous demand today. The industry continues to experience exponential demand that should continue to grow for the foreseeable future. This book can benefit professionals as much as students. As they integrate the book’s ideas into their software security practices, their value increases to their organizations, management teams, community, and industry.

Download or read book Risk Based Vulnerability Disclosure written by Andrew Dingman and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computing has become increasingly ubiquitous and embedded (as demonstrated by industrial control systems, in-vehicle systems, in-home care systems, and within the energy and transportation infrastructures). As a result, the issue of responsible vulnerability disclosure has returned to the fore. These new computing contexts require revisiting the nature of vulnerabilities and redefining responsible disclosure. The first goal of this work is to critique current disclosure practices. Based upon these critiques, grounded in the history of vulnerabilities, and informed by a series of expert interviews, we propose a model of risk-based responsible disclosure. Research on vulnerability disclosure policy was an early focus in economics of security, particularly until 2006. That earlier research, however, reasonably assumed models of computers that were applicable to desktops, laptops, and servers. That is, there is a centralized source of patches, patching is possible in a very short time frame, patching is low cost, and the issue of physical harm need not be addressed. Current disagreements arise in part from the increasing diversity of both vulnerabilities and their potential impact. There are some clear lines. For example, it is not acceptable to disclose a vulnerability by implementing it and causing harm to victims. There are also well-known reasons for disclosure, specifically for creating incentives for vendors to patch and diffusing information to potential victims for their use in risk mitigation. The trade-offs between transparency and confidentiality are increasingly complex. Responsible disclosure must be equitable: informing the marketplace, incentivizing software manufacturers to patch flaws, protecting vulnerable populations, and simultaneously minimizing the opportunities for malicious actors. To understand and resolve these challenges, we begin with the current state of vulnerability research. Stepping back provides a high-level historical perspective from the first identifiable vulnerability in a mass-produced device (beyond the canonical physical bugs in the first highly custom computers) to the Superfish malware in 2015. We describe extant models of disclosure, identifying the strengths and weaknesses of each of these. After that, we summarize factors previously used as vulnerability (and thus disclosure) metrics. These historical analyses and technical critiques are augmented by a series of interviews with technology and policy experts. For the vast majority of vulnerabilities, the questions of public disclosure are not “if” but rather when and at what level of detail. We conclude that there is now no single optimal disclosure regime. Given this, we advocate for a model of disclosure grounded in risk-based analysis. Such an analysis should be complete and deterministic for a given context. We propose the factors necessary for such a systematic analysis. We then use well-known cases to test the framework and provide illustrative but practical examples.
