Tactics, Techniques and Procedures ( TTPs )
Refer to the patterns of activities and methods associated with specific threat or actors or groups of threat actors. TTPs are helpful in analyzing threats and profiling threat actors and can further be used to strengthen the security infrastructures of an organization.
TACTICS
Describe the way the threat actor operates during different phases of an attack. It consists of the various tactics used to gather information for the initial exploitation, perform priv esc and lateral mov, and deploy measures for persistance access to the system. They can vary, but they are mostly similar and can be used for profiling
TECHNIQUES
Set of tools and the way they are used to obtain intermediate results during an attack campaign. To lunch an attack successfully, threat actors use several techniques during its execution. These techniques include :
Covering the tracks of data exfiltration
Accessing the target infrastructure
Setting up C2 channel
Initial exploitation
PROCEDURES
Involve a sequence of actions performed by the threat actors to execute different steps of an attack life cycle. The number of actions usually differs depending upon the objectives of the procedure and the APT group.

IDS / IPSThese solutions monitor networks or systems for harmful activities, mitigate them, and report the results to the system administrator.The Intrusion Detection System's goal is detecting, record-keeping of attacks, and alerting the administrator. IDS compares network traffic to threats database and flags network attacks, unsuccessful authentication, and privilege escalation attempts. To block malicious actions, the system administrator has to reconfigure the firewall by themselves.The Intrusion Prevention Systems are extensions of IDS solutions. IPSs are capable of autonomously reconfiguring the firewall and reset sessions based on real-time threats.
IDS
network-based IDSs (NIDS)NIDS scans huge volumes of network activity on the router level and flags suspicious transmissions, such as IP Spoofing, DoS attacks, ARP cache poisoning, DNS name corruption, and man-in-the-middle attacks.
host-based IDSs (HIDS)HIDS monitors multiple log files on the host (kernel, system, network, firewall) to identify misuse or intrusion. Additionally, HIDS assures the integrity of critical data on the host by validation of files' checksums (md5 or sha1). When checksums do not match, HIDS notifies the administrator.
Detection Methods
Signature-based
Anomaly-based
Rule/Policy-based
IPS
NIPSNetwork IPS (NIPS) is placed on a router. It inspects transit traffic before it is allowed through the network. As NIPS solutions work with the network traffic, they don't need operation system (OS) compatibility with each host on the net.
inline modeIn the inline mode, NIPS works as a network bridge and after detecting an attack, it can block its expansion within a few seconds. Inline NIPS instances do not have their own MAC or IP address, which makes them invisible and inaccessible for the attackers.
promiscuous modeIn the promiscuous mode, NIPS is placed on the Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN), which sends a copy of network packets from multiple ports to NIPS. In the promiscuous mode, NIPS works with a copy of traffic, so it can not block the attackers on the fly. Encrypted or fragmented traffic may challenge NIPS solutions, as the difficulty of the analysis increases. Also, high-bandwidth networks may require costly deployment of more NIPS sensors. (Product: SolarWinds Security Event Manager)
HIPSHost IPS (HIPS) monitors suspicious activity within the host on which it is installed. It intercepts the operating system and application calls for system resources, validates the call against the policy, and decides to allow or deny the request. Encrypted traffic is not an issue for HIPS, as it has access to its unencrypted form on the host. Additionally, HIPS analyzes the log files for post-factum suspicious activity. For greater results, HIPS has to be deployed on each host in the network. Without prior verification, this may cause compatibility issues with different OS types over the network.

Information Security Controls Information security controls prevent the occurrence of unwanted events and reduce risk to the organization's information assets. The basic security concept critical for information are the CIA.
Information assurance (IA) refer to the assurance of the CIA and authenticity of information and information system during usage, processing, storage and transmission of information.Processes that help in achieving IA are :
Develop local policy, process and guidance in such a way to maintain the information system at an optimum security level
Design network and user authentication strategy
Identify network vulnerabilities and threats
Identity problems and resource requirements
Create a plan for identify resource requirements
Apply appropriate IA controls
Performing the Certification and Accreditation ( C&A ) process to information system help to trace vulnerabilities and implement safety measures to nullify them.
Provide IA training to all personnel in federal and private organizations for IT awareness
Defense-in-depth Is a security strategy in which security professional use several protection layers throughout an information system. Use the military principle that is more difficult for an enemy to defeat a complex and multi-layered defence system than to penetrate a single barrier
Risk Management
What is a RISK? RISK = Threats x Vulnerability x Impact IT risk RISK = Threat x Vulnerability x Asset Value Risk Level : Consequence x likelihood
Probability of the occurrence of a threat or an event that will damage, cause loss to or have negative impacts to an organization, internally or externally
The possibility of a threat acting upon an internal or external vulnerability and causing harm to a resource.
The product of the likelihood that an event will occur and the impact that the event might have on an information technology asset
Objectives
Identify potential risks
Identify the impact of risks
Prioritize the risks
Undestand and analyze the risks and report identified risk events
Control the risk and mitigate its effect
Create awareness among the security staff and develop strategies and plans for lasting risk management strategies
Phases
Risk Identification
main aim : identify the risks, including the sources, causes and consequences of the internal or external risks affecting the security of the organization BEFORE they cause harm
Risk Assessment
This phase assess the organization's risk and estimates the likelihood and impact of those risks. It's an ongoing iterative process that assign priorities for risk mitigation and implementation plans
Risk Treatment

Incident Handling and Response (IH&R)
what is
Is the process of taking organized and careful steps when reacting to a security incident or cyberattack. It is a SET OF PROCEDURES, ACTIONS and MEASURES taken against an unexpected event occurrence.
steps involved :
Step 1 : Preparation
Perform an audit of resources and assets to determine the purpose of security
Define the rules, policies and procedures that drive the IH&R process
Build and train an incident response team
Define incident readiness procedures
Gather required tools
Train employees to secure their systems and accounts
Step 2 : Incident Recording and Assignment
This phase handles identifying an incident and defining proper incident communication plans for the employees and also to the IT submitting a ticket.
Step 3 : Incident Triage
The incident is analyzed, validated and prioritized. The IH&R team further analyzes the compromised device to find incident details such : source of attack, severity, target, impact, method of propagation and vulnerability exploited
Step 4 : Notification
In this phase the IH&R team inform various stakeholders, including management, third-party vendors and clients about the identified incident.
Step 5 : Containment
Help to prevent the spread of infection to other assets
Step 6 : Evidence Gathering and Forensic Analysis
The team gather all possible evidence and submit them to the forensic department for investigations
Step 7 : Eradication
The IH&R removes or eliminates the root cause of the incident and closes all the attack vectors to prevent similar incident in the future
Step 8 : Recovery
The IH&R restore the affected system, services and resources. It's them the duty of maintaining the service up and running
Step 9 : Post-incident Activities
