Data Exfiltration from AWS S3 Buckets

By
You will have no doubt heard by now about the recent Booz Allen Hamilton breach that took place on Amazon Web Services – in short, a shocking collection of 60,000 government sensitive files were left on a public S3 bucket (file storage in Amazon Web Services) for all to see. We are all probably too overwhelmed to care, given all the recent breaches we have been hearing about in the news. But with this breach it was different, it involved a trusted and appointed contractor whose job it was to follow security policies, put in place to avoid such incidents. So was this incident accidental or malicious? More, later about the tools we can use to tell the difference between the two. First, lets recap what happened. The Incident According to Gizmodo , the 28GB of data that was leaked not only contained sensitive information on recent government projects, but at least a half dozen unencrypted passwords belonging to government contractors with Top Secret Clearance – meaning anyone who got

Sift Security vs. Elastic Search and Elastic Graph

By
We are often asked, “What is the difference between Sift Security and Elastic Graph ?” This is a great question that typically comes from folks who are already familiar with Elasticsearch [0] and Elastic Graph [1]. The answer boils down to the following: Elastic Graph is a tool for visualizing arbitrary aggregate search results. Elasticsearch is a Restful search that distributed, and has analytics engine that solves a number of use cases such as mapping from Python to ES REST endpoints. Sift Security uses a graph database to simplify and accelerate specific security use cases. In this blog post, we describe the advantages of each of these approaches, and conclude with a discussion of when to use each. Advantages of Sift Security vs ElasticSearch and Elastic Graph Query speed Sift Security builds a property graph to represent security log events at ingestion time.  We do this work at ingestion time for one reason:  to speed up common investigative queries.  When investi
