SUMMARY:BSidesCharm
DESCRIPTION:BSidesCharm is a regional Security B-Sides held in Baltimore\, MD. It operates under the umbrella principles of Security B-Sides as a larger community project within information security. The goal of BSides is to offer small\, intimate events where all participants can engage each other to help develop connections\, friendships\, and network with different industry professionals.\n\nWe recognize the value in engaging a smaller audience and being the big fish in a small pond. Every organization will have different goals and priorities which is why we offer different levels of participation for every individual\, group\, or organization. We specifically designed several different options for any sized organization to participate and support this event.

SUMMARY:Membership Meeting 9/23/2020
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: 2020-09-23-Meeting-Presentation.pdf \nSpeaker Slides: UAS-Forensics-Framework-2020-09-23.pdf \nTopic: A Study on Drone Forensics Framework \nAs consumer unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) or drones are used more commonly in public areas\, an approach for a drone forensics framework is needed to guide forensics investigators in analyzing recovered drones that entered the unauthorized national airspace system (NAS). The presentation is based on a doctoral research study focused on whether a single framework and multiple frameworks for drone forensics. The data collected through an online survey provided detailed descriptions of the participants’ most commonly used forensics frameworks or guidelines. The data collected from participants in the United States measured the occurrences of the type of guidelines forensics examiners used. The results of the study identified a need for a standard drone forensic framework across digital forensic disciplines and aircraft accident investigation for use by investigators to produce admissible evidence for litigation in the U.S. courts. The research led to a proposed basic drone forensics framework\, which can be improved upon in future research. \nSpeaker: Nagi Mei\, D.Sc. \n\nDr. Nagi Mei has over 14 years in management and technology consulting service offerings to the commercial and health industries\, and federal\, state\, and local governments. She has extensive experience in strategic initiatives and operational responsibilities grounded in information security management. Dr. Mei is a project manager where she leads teams in implementing information security projects. Dr. Mei received a Doctor of Science in Cybersecurity from the Capitol Technology University. She holds a Master in Business Administration\, a Master of Science in Information and Telecommunications Systems from the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School\, and a Bachelor of Science in Information Systems concentrating in Digital Forensics from the Johns Hopkins University.

SUMMARY:Membership Meeting 11/18/2020
DESCRIPTION:Chapter Business Meeting Slides: 2020-11-18 – Meeting Presentastion.pdf\n\n\n\nSpeaker Slides: Roles of Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning in Detecting Data Exfiltration \nTopic: Roles of Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning in Detecting Data Exfiltration \nEssential Internet services are vital for many aspects of modern living\, yet those services remain valuable to threat actors who use them for network intrusions and data exfiltration. Dr. Pena completed a quantitative research study analyzing the ability of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to detect Domain Name System (DNS) covert communications generated by the DNSExfiltrator open source tool. The results showed the CNN model had100% accuracy when exfiltrated file sizes exceeded 2 Kilobytes (KB) using the default (maximum) transmission packet size\, but its performance fell dramatically for files below 1 KB in size. \nAs AI/ML solutions become more prevalent in cybersecurity tools\, professionals must understand where a model’s strengths and weaknesses lay in order to apply appropriate risk mitigations\, such as tuning complimentary detection systems. \nSpeaker: Dr. Tomas Pena\, L3 Harris Technologies \n\n\nDr. Tomas Pena is the Chief Technologist for Cyber Operations at L3Harris Technologies’ Space and Airborne Systems Segment. In that role\, he’s responsible for cyber innovation and improving the resiliency of company products spanning land\, sea\, air\, space\, and cyber domains. He’s been in cyber-related systems engineering and defense contracting positions since 2013. Prior to that time\, he completed 20 years of service in the United States Air Force as a Cyberspace Operations Officer where he organized\, planned\, executed full-spectrum cyberspace operations\, stood up the United States Cyber Command’s 24/7 Joint Operations Center\, and led Air Force Business Transformation Initiatives at the Pentagon. Dr. Pena has also filled roles such as managing the Global Positioning System satellite control systems\, managing theater communications during Operations IRAQI FREEDOM and ENDURING FREEDOM. He is also the Founder and President of Parallax Cyber LLC\, a small business focused on training and educating the workforce in Cybersecurity and Cyber Conflict\, and the current Editor-in-Chief of the Military Cyber Professional Associations’ Military Cyber Affairs Journal. \n\n\nClick Here to register for the November 18\, 2020 General Membership Meeting

SUMMARY:December 2020 "Lunch and Learn"
DESCRIPTION:O365 Lunch and Learn Abstract: We’ll navigate through uncharted security territory by analyzing the attack lifecycle in the cloud and dissecting a real-world attack. The same technology that makes the cloud dynamic can have the opposite effect on an organization’s ability to implement detection and response in cloud environments. This includes the adding additional layer of preventative controls in addition to MFA\, because it’s increasingly being bypassed in O365 as an example. Chris Morales\, Head of Analytics with Vectra\, will help us navigate through the uncharted security territory by analyzing the attack lifecycle in the cloud\, reviewing the top cloud security threats\, and dissecting a real-world cloud attack. Additionally\, he’ll provide key takeaways for managing access\, detection and response\, and security operations. \nThis event is sponsored by Vectra. \n \nClick Here to register for this event.
