network perimeter
–
–
–
–

Cost effective networking
Collaborative business
Outsourcing

Current Network Security Strategy


“It’s all about the firewalls….”
Premise:
–
–

Control remote connectivity for:
–
–
–
–




SCB internal network is “open” at network layer
All restriction of access and protection of data occurs at higher
layers (host, application, etc)
off-network hosts/people via “trusted”/“untrusted” networks
“trusted” third-parties via “trusted” third-party networks
“trusted” third-parties via “untrusted” networks, ie Internet
“untrusted” third-parties via Internet
Maintain same level of trust at each layer in multi-layer
boundary model
Ensure that SCB network protected by “defence in depth”
Provide range of cost-effective solutions for above scenarios
Provide resilient connectivity as option where
business transaction requirements specify

The Death of the Perimeter

(Banking) Business is conducted over networks
– Multitude of connection points
– Multitude of traffic types (protocols, content)
– Complication!

Traditional perimeter security doesn’t scale:
– For filtering of addresses or protocols
– For management of multiple gateways



Mobile & wireless technology (largely) ignores the
perimeter control
Most large corporates have leaky perimeters
Perimeter security does nothing about data flow
and residence
11
Fortress Firewall - Old Technology?

Terminology
“De-perimeterisation”
vs
“Radical Externalisation”
vs
Shrinking Perimeters
13
The Challenge
 Business transactions
– from any PC
– on any network
– anywhere
– by anyone of a wide range of different
personnel
 Direct to one/more small corporate “island”
core(s)
 With fully “externalised” network

The Security Problem

The remote PC
– Is it securely configured?
– Is it infected with malware?
– What about data stored locally?

The network
– What happens to my data passing over it?

The island host
– Who do I let in?
– How to I exclude others?

The management
– How to manage ‘000s of points of control to the same
standard with robustness
19
So What Do We Need to Do?


Vendors claim they have the answer
BUT!
– Partial delivery
– Proprietary solutions
– No integration cross-vendors

We need:
– Definition of business scenarios
– Standard Technology Requirements Definitions

“Sell side” needs to listen
– And integrate
– Preferably cross their traditional boundaries!

So what is Jericho?
– Over to Paul…..!
20
What is Jericho?
Paul Simmonds
ICI Plc.
& Jericho Forum Board
21
Agenda
 First, what actually is de-perimeterisation
 Then, the Jericho Forum
– How the two are related
– It’s composition
– It’s relationship with the Open Group
– It’s charter
– It’s remit
22
So what is de-perimeterisation?
It’s fundamentally an acceptance that;
 Most exploits will easily transit perimeter security
– We let through e-mail
– We let through web
– We will need to let through VoIP
– We let through encrypted traffic (SSL, SMTP-TLS, VPN),
 Your border has effectively become a QoS Boundary
 Protection has little/no benefit at the perimeter,
 That it’s easier to protect data the closer we get to it,
 That a hardened perimeter strategy is at odds with current
and/or future business needs,
 That a hardened perimeter strategy is un-sustainable.
23
So what is it actually?
It’s a concept;
 It’s how we solve the business needs for our businesses
without a hardened perimeter,
 Its how businesses leverage new opportunities when there is
no hardened perimeter,
 It’s a set of solutions within a framework that we can pick and
mix from,
 It’s defence in depth,
 It’s business-driven security solutions
It is not a single solution – it’s a way of thinking . . .
Thus;
 There’s a need to challenge conventional thinking
 There’s the need to change existing mindsets
24
Why the Jericho Forum?
Why now?
No one else was discussing the problem
 Everyone was fixated on perimeter based designs
 Somebody needed to point out the “Kings new clothes” to the
world
 Someone needed to start the discussion

What’s in it for us?
Ultimately, we need products to implement
 We need to stimulate a market for solutions to
de-perimeterised problems

25
The Jericho Forum Composition
Initial Composition
 Initially only consumer (user) organisations
–
–
–
–
To define the problem space
To create the vision
Free from perception of taint from vendors
With the promise of vendor involvement once the vision defined
That point is here now, and we have our first vendor members
But with safeguards to ensure independence;
 User members own the Forum, vote on the deliverables and run
the Board of Managers
 Vendors have no voting rights on deliverables or the direction
and management of the Forum.

26
The Open Group relationship
 Why the Open Group?
– Experience with loose “groups” of companies and
individuals
– Track record of delivery
– Regarded as open and impartial
– All output is free and Open Source
– Existing framework with a good fit
– Existing legal framework
– Global organisation
27
The Jericho Forum Charter & Remit
What Jericho Is . . .
 There to start the discussion / change the mindset
 The arbiters of making de-perimeterised solutions work in the
corporate space
 There to refine what are Jericho Architectural principals vs. Good
Secure Design
 Building on the work in the visioning document
 To define key items aligned with the message that make this
specifically Jericho
 There to clarify that there is not just one “Jericho solution”
What Jericho is not . . .
 Another standards body
 A cartel – this is not about buying a single solution
 There to compete with “good security”.
28
Dating & Secure System Design
 When it comes to dating, at best you get to pick
two out of the following three;
– Clever
– Beautiful / Handsome
– Great Personality / Character Traits
 So, given budget & development timelines, at best
you have to pick two out of the following three;
– Fast (Speed to market)
– Feature Rich
– Secure

The Jericho Forum Challenge
We believe, that in tomorrow’s world
the only successful e-transactions &
e-businesses will utilise a
de-perimeterised architecture
Thus you only have two choices;
 Do you sit back and let it happen to you?
Or
 Do you help design the future to ensure it fits
YOUR business needs?

…or in words…
 The traditional model of a hard perimeter
and soft centre is changing as :
– Your people move outside the perimeter
– They are not just ‘your’ people any more
– Business partners move inside the perimeter

The policy is out of sync…
– too restrictive at the perimeter (default deny)
– lacking in the core (default allow)
38
39
…with wider general consequences, e.g.

Trust models – conventional thinking
– Architecture-centric governance models lead us to
federated identity management and trusted second/third
parties
– Stakeholder-centric governance models lead us to
regulatory solutions and ‘industry’ initiatives,
e.g. e-marketplaces
– Both approaches may be constrained, if not doomed!
Question
What does a ‘corporate’ policy
look like for a virtual
organization?
Answer
The assumption of
‘organization’ breaks down:
need granularity

…and we also agreed where we’re headed

Personnel contracts
Permissions/ Vetting
Guards and gates

…but – how soon will this hit us?
“People often overestimate what will
happen in the next two years and
underestimate what will happen in ten.
I’m guilty of this myself.”
Attributed to Bill Gates
42
…the answer to which splits into these:

What’s changing

How soon…?

Static, long term business
relationships

Dynamic, global business
partnerships

Assumption that threats are  Threats are everywhere –
external – perimeters
perimeters defend a network,
responsible for protecting
but highly mobile devices
all assets from all external
must defend themselves:
attacks
defence in depth needed

Traditional client server
environment used by an
office based workforce

Growing use of multi-tier
applications / services by an
increasingly virtual user-base

Operating System and
Network based security
controls

Protection extended to
applications and end user
devices
43
…and led us to some initial conclusions…
Impacts of the information age are now well known:
Network externalities, disintermediation
Power of globalisation
Information Risks and their impacts
We have lessons from other infrastructure changes
(electricity, railways, etc)
 Tools such as Technology Road Mapping and Scenario
Planning can be used to explore the impact of key drivers,
trends and events
 IT products emerging in the next 3 -10 years
are likely to be in today’s research labs
…so this is about getting the right
products in place





44
…plus some observations on root causes…








Many IT ‘standards’ are broken in practice, e.g.:
Certificate/CRL (non) processing in SSL
Bug-compatible implementations of X.509 certificate
extensions processing in crypto software
Representing collaborating/cooperating organisations in
X.500/LDAP; directory interoperability
Re-inventing the wheel for security services for XML
(Signatures, Encryption, Key Management…)
Repeated technical standards initiatives with little or no
‘user’ / vendor dialogue:
Vendors supposedly understand ‘user’ requirements
‘Users’ can’t and/or don’t articulate what they want…
45
…as well as lively debate on what to call it…
 De-Perimeterisation
 Re-Perimeterisation
 Radical Externalisation
 Security Without Frontiers
 Boundary-Less Information FlowTM
46
…with a key qualification on the “de-”
 Why would you still have a perimeter?
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Block external attacks in network infrastructure
IP spoofing
Block noise and control intranet
Denial of service attacks
Protection from random traffic
Routing and network address management
Legal barrier
Evidence of corporate boundary
Depending on business mission, criticality etc.
47
So, the Vision we agreed was:
Vision
 To enable business confidence for collaboration
and commerce beyond the constraint of the
corporate, government, academic & home office
perimeter, through;
– Cross-organisational security processes and services
– Products that conform to Open security standards
– Assurance processes that when used in one organisation
can be trusted by others
Initial visioning whitepaper at:
http://www.jerichoforum.org
48
…and the Mission and Milestones:
Mission
 Act as a catalyst to accelerate the achievement of the Vision,
by;
– Defining the problem space
– Communicating the collective Vision
– Challenging constraints and creating an environment for
innovation
– Demonstrating the market
– Influencing future products and standards
Timetable
 A period of 3-5 years for the achievement of its Vision, whilst
accepting that its Mission will be ongoing beyond that.

53
Jericho Forum Way Forward
 Jericho will provide thought leadership on
all aspects of de-perimeterisation
 Strategies being deployed;
–
–
–
–
–
–
–
Formal working groups within Jericho
Foster academic links and research
Continue evangelisation
Promote independent discussion and research
Competitions
Conferences
Expand Membership
54
Jericho Forum Working Groups
 Jericho Forum working groups will only
exist for the necessary period of time
 To date two have been convened and
disbanded as their work is complete;
– Jericho Forum Management & Transition to
Open Group
– Visioning Working Group
 Six currently exist

56
What are Working Groups?
 Tried and tested model for cooperative working
– Used by Open Group
 Products of working groups submitted for voting
by Forum members
 Method of working:
– Few meetings – workshops
– Telephone conferences
– Email
 Two current active working groups:
– Trust Models
– Technology & Standards
57
Work Group Participation
 Membership of Jericho Forum required
 Four Levels of participation identified:
– Type 1
• Physically Engaged << Commitment to attend occasional
TMWG meetings as well phone calls & email and being a
Mentally Engaged Contributor
– Type 2
• Mentally Engaged << Willingness to remotely engage in
TMWG meetings as well as contributing outside the meetings
– Type 3
• Contributor << Willingness to occasionally contribute
– Type 4
• Observer
58
Trust Models Working Group
 Vision of Jericho Forum dependant on
degree to which information requires to be
trusted and protected
 Model will identify various entities or assets
involved in flow of protected, trusted
information
 Model will NOT attempt to define
standards, or design solutions for these
requirements
59
Why Model Trust?
 In the past Trust based on Human
Interaction and Written Legal Contract
 Today information flows electronically at
speeds that transcend these mechanisms
 New model for electronic trust required
– accelerate development and ensure
maintenance of trust in new electronic domain
60
Example Trust Model
61
Technology & Standards Work Group
Working out the “nuts & bolts” for Jericho…
 Requirements Roadmap

– Requirements based on Visioning White Paper
– More explicit Business angle (What’s In It For Me)
– More specific Threat landscape
Technology Roadmap
 Short-term, 6-month & Long-term deliverables
 2-way communication with other Jericho WGs – particularly
Architecture, Trust Models, Requirements/Ontology
 Using outcomes from The Jericho Challenge

– representative from TSWG involved to validate definition &
evaluate criteria for assessing submissions
62
Foster academic links and research
 Jericho is providing assisted membership
for suitable academic researchers
 To date three links have been approved by
the Jericho Forum Management Board
– University of Kent Computing Laboratory
– Royal Holloway College (in progress)
– University of Auckland (in progress)
63
Promote independent discussion & research
 Research into de-perimeterisation is not
Jericho Forum exclusive territory;
 Other publications;
– PITAC
– Butler Group

Cyber Security: A Crisis of Prioritization

Cyber Security:
A Crisis of Prioritization
(February 2005)
http://www.itrd.gov/pitac/reports/20050301_cybersecurity/cybersecurity.pdf

A broad consensus among computer
scientists is emerging that the
approach of patching and retrofitting
networks, computing systems, and
software to “add” security and
reliability may be necessary in the
short run but is inadequate for
addressing the Nation’s cyber security
needs.
65
Cyber Security: A Crisis of Prioritization

Fundamentally New Security Models, Methods
Needed
–
–
–
The vast majority of cyber security research conducted to date
has been based on the concept of perimeter defence.
This weakness of the perimeter defence strategy has
become painfully clear. But it is not the only problem with the
model. The distinction between “outside” and “inside” breaks
down amid the proliferation of wireless and embedded
technologies connected to networks and the increasing
complexity of networked “systems of systems.”
Security add-ons will always be necessary to fix some security
problems, but ultimately there is no substitute for system-wide
end-to-end security that is minimally intrusive.
66
April 2005 Butler Group Review
 “Deperimeterisation has become more than an
interesting idea it is now a requirement for many
organisations”
 “Vendors have shown an increasing willingness to listen
to the user community, but in the absence of a
coherent voice from the end-users themselves, may
have been uncertain about to whom they should be
listening.”
 “As long as Jericho can continue to build upon its
foundations and successfully integrate vendor input
into its ongoing strategies, then we see no reason why
this community should not become a strong and
valuable voice in the years ahead.”

The Jericho Challenge

Mutually beneficial vendor involvement

Agenda
 Why has the Jericho Forum opened up to
vendors?
 Why become a vendor member?
 Rights of vendor members vs. user members
 How to engage
– What Forum membership is not
– How to get best value from membership
73
Vendor membership of a user forum?
– What’s that about?
 Jericho Forum fundamental principle is to be
user driven to get break-thorough in:
– Solving problems that existing perimeter-based
solutions were not addressing
– Interoperability and integration of security
across vendors
– Giving vendors a user-community driven
business case
That principle has not changed and the
Forum remains user owned and driven
74
Vendor membership of a user forum?
– What’s that about?
 Users don’t build solutions
– Engage with vendors to solve the problems we
are defining
 We invite vendors to join with us;
– Get to grips with the difficult problems
– Propose open standards to base products on
– Propose new solutions
– Change existing thinking & join the debate
Users will approve the standards.
75
Why become a vendor member?
1. Making customers successful
 A CISO gets a daily flood of solutions and
most are rejected out of hand – why?
– Too many solutions use ‘FUD’
– Claim to be the latest miracle cure
– They may be bought in ignorance rather
than reasoned analysis
– Disappointment is likely - not exactly a
repeatable business model!
– HIPPA! SOX! Phishing! Falling Sky!
 Of those that solve real problems;
–
–
–
–
Too many are not integrated
Too proprietary, with limited architecture
At some point they will be thrown away
Perhaps along with the CISO buying them?
76
Why become a vendor member?
2. Position in the Marketplace
There is uncertainty in the market - CNet, March 05:


"Security, ultimately, will not be a standalone market," said one
investment banker ….. "It will just be just another layer of the
infrastructure stack. It's no longer about just making the security
products work together."
Software, services and hardware companies in the security sector will
pull in $52.2 billion in sales in 2008, compared with $22.8 billion in
2003, predicts market research firm IDC. That makes those
businesses attractive targets for acquirers in the networking,
communications and systems management industries, among others.
Major CISO:
“There are a few very successful security vendors, the remainder find
a small niche and/or sell a few small pilots where expectations are far
in excess of reality.”
77
What’s in it for me
 Access to the thinking of leading security users in




one place
No need to organise numerous strategy workshops
with users
Access to Jericho thinking, ahead of it being
published
Opportunities to grasp new markets ahead of the
competition
Meet and understand where integration with other
Jericho vendor members will enhance both
offerings
78
What’s in it for me
 Better opportunity for a larger take-up of
customers at faster rate:
– ‘viral’ effects of interoperability, users require it of
one another
– faster sales-cycle as customers will already
understand the concepts & benefits of a particular
security capability.
 Do open standards give-away competitive
advantage? – No
– Jericho Forum requires open standards in
interoperability. ‘Inside the box’ capability and
specific functionality can still be competitive issues.
79
Rights of vendor members vs. user members
 User members own the Forum, work in the working
groups, vote on the deliverables and run the Board
of Managers
 Vendors may;
– Join in the work groups and contribute to design
items and open standards
– Have full access to Jericho materials
– Elect their own representative onto the vendor council
that represents vendor interests to the Board of
Managers
 Vendors have no voting rights on deliverables or
the direction and management of the Forum.
80
How to engage
 What Forum membership is not
– A direct sales opportunity
– Access to a mailing list
– A chance to brand all products
‘Jericho approved’
 Best value from membership
– Get involved in the working groups
– Have technical contributors like
your CTO be the one who joins
– Support open interoperability
– Spread the word

Thinking beyond Einstein …
“I never think about the future. It
comes soon enough”
Einstein
83
Preparing for a different future …
We know only one thing about the future
or, rather, the futures:
“It will not look like the present”
Jorge Luis Borges

The importance of Security increases …
Increasing
Threats
from viruses,
hackers, fraud,
espionage
Increasing
Expectations
from customers,
partners, auditors,
regulators
85
Increasing
Exposure
greater dependence
on IT, increasing
connectivity
As organisations continue to change …

As we experience the first security paradigm
shift of the 21st Century …
88
Technology will transform our world …
 Exploding connectivity and complexity






(embedded Internet, IP convergence)
Machine-understandable information
(Semantic Web)
De-fragmentation of computers into
networks of smaller devices
Wireless, wearable computing
Ubiquitous digital rights management
Biometrics and novel user interfaces
From deterministic to probabilistic systems
89
There are consequences for security …
 Slow death of network perimeters
 Continuing blurring of business and personal





lifestyles
Security migrates to the data level
New languages and tools needed to express,
translate and negotiate security policies
Intelligent monitoring systems
needed to maintain control of
complex, networked systems
Uncertain security - no guarantees
Manage incidents as opportunities
90
How will we respond?
 The loss of perimeter security will force us to shrink
perimeters to clients, applications and ultimately
data
 IP Convergence will accelerate this process by
challenging existing network security architectures
 We will realise that securing our own backyard is no
longer sufficient, and work together to develop
federated solutions to secure data across
boundaries
 The Jericho Trust models will
underpin this migration
91
Further developments …
 We will agree common policy languages to support




cross-organisational processes, including federated
identity and access management
This work will underpin the automation of security
countermeasures and enable the exploitation of the
Semantic Web
We will use the Semantic Web to interpret and
secure data in context across organisations
Jericho Technology and Standards will
deliver the underpinning architecture
Jericho Requirements and Ontology
models will enable its exploitation
92
We will increasingly design our own future …
“The best way to predict the future
is to invent it”
Alan Kay

Using the power of our imagination …
“Imagination is more important than
knowledge.”
Einstein

As we look ahead to the second paradigm
shift of the 21st Century …

A world of increasing openness and
complexity …
 Exploding surveillance opportunities
 Limited opportunities for privacy-enhancing




technologies
Proliferating data wakes and pervasive
circumstantial data about personal behaviour
Intelligent monitoring software can highlight
unusual behaviour
Data fusion, mining and visualisation software
can extract intelligence out of noise
Exploitable for business, security,
fraud or espionage
96
Visibility & understanding will be key
 Understanding and interpreting data in
context
 Exploit data mining, fusing and neural
networks to crunch through complexity
 Employ computational immunology to
differentiate good transactions from bad
 Data visualisation technology to enhance
human understanding
