Description

Just a quick episode this week... As part of the Brakesec Book Club (join us on our #Slack Channel for more information!) we are discussing Dr. Gary McGraw's book "Software Security: Building Security In" (Amazon Link: https://is.gd/QtHQcM) We talk about the need to inserting security into your company's #SDLC... but what exactly can be done to enable that? I talk about abuse cases, #risk #analysis, creating test cases, pentesting, and #security #operations are all methods to do so. Finally, I discovered a blog talking about ways to discover configuration errors on Linux systems that might allow #privilege #escalation to occur. Using these tools as part of your hardening processes could lower the risk of a bad actor gaining elevated privileges on your *unix hosts http://rajhackingarticles.blogspot.com/2016/11/4-ways-to-get-linux-privilege-escalation.html You can find the github of this script and the audit software that I mentioned below: https://github.com/rebootuser/LinEnum.git     #Lynis (from CISOfy: https://cisofy.com/lynis/   Direct Link: http://traffic.libsyn.com/brakeingsecurity/2016-047-inserting_security_into_the_SDLC_finding_Linux_priv_esc.mp3   #iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/2016-047-inserting-security/id799131292?i=1000378329598&mt=2   #YouTube:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd_ZzvVNqoA   #RSS: http://www.brakeingsecurity.com/rss #Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/music/podcasts/portal/#p:id=playpodcast/series&a=100584969 #SoundCloud: https://www.soundcloud.com/bryan-brake Comments, Questions, Feedback: bds.podcast@gmail.com Support Brakeing Down Security #Podcast on #Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/bds_podcast #Twitter: @brakesec @boettcherpwned @bryanbrake #Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BrakeingDownSec/ #Tumblr: http://brakeingdownsecurity.tumblr.com/ #Player.FM : https://player.fm/series/brakeing-down-security-podcast #Stitcher Network: http://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=80546&refid=stpr #TuneIn Radio App: http://tunein.com/radio/Brakeing-Down-Security-Podcast-p801582
