Sample text

The Attacker must gain access to the network device itself. Given the diversity of network layout and types of devices, doing this “blind,” that is, with preprogrammed software, is difficult. Therefore, to circumvent these network devices, the Attacker generally needs to establish a command and control channel into the network to make intelligent decisions. Establishing this channel, however, requires circumventing the network device first. Chicken, meet egg. Rather than confront the problem, the Attacker avoids it by establishing outbound connections via allowed network protocols, that is, e-mail, Facebook message, instant message, and so on.

There is something intuitive to this line of thinking. I used exactly this thought process for deciding never to bother locking the doors of my first car, a machine that was literally held together by coat hangers, duct tape, and staples. I reasoned that if someone were going to steal a car, they would steal a better car than mine. But while decidedly true for my lemon, the “better car” theory of security breaks down when attacks can be automated and there is a potential positional use for every point of access.

In the beginning, the Attacker will not be picky. Any access is better than none. This partially explains why, for example, there have been 70+ reported vulnerabilities in WordPress since 2010. The Attacker is unlikely to care about the information the popular website management and blogging software holds. It’s probably already public. Compromising WordPress provides initial access to the web server, a toehold on the target’s network. ) Preventing this initial access is the focus of much of the security industry.
