1 Initiative for Open Authentication OATH Interoperability without Sacrificing Security Donald E. Malloy, Jr. NagraID Security September 7 th 2010

2 The Open Authentication Reference Architecture (OATH) initiative is a group of companies working together to help drive the adoption of open strong authentication technology across all networks. Q1

3 Why the need for OATH Fraud continues to grow world-wide million consumer records were breached resulting in almost $1Trillion in losses 10 Million Americans were victims of fraud last year This amounts to over $300M of online fraud last year alone Hacking into web sites and stealing passwords continue to be a main focus of fraudsters Static Passwords are not secure: 80% hacked

5 OPERATION PHISH PHRY Major Cyber Fraud Takedown The defendants in Operation Phish Phry targeted U.S. banks and victimized hundreds and possibly thousands of account holders by stealing their financial information and using it to transfer about $1.5 million to bogus accounts they controlled.

6 More Hacks HIGH-TECH HEIST 2,100 ATMs Worldwide Hit at Once With cloned or stolen debit cards in hand and the PINs to go with them they hit more than 2,100 money machines in at least 280 cities on three continents, in such countries as the U.S., Canada, Italy, Hong Kong, Japan, Estonia, Russia, and the Ukraine. When it was all over incredibly within 12 hours the thieves walked off with a total of more than $9 million in cash. And that figure would ve been more, had the targeted ATMs not been drained of all their money

7 ATM Spews Money Barnaby Jack compromised 2 ATMs he purchased from EBAY and demonstrated at the recent Black Hat Security Conference He hacked into the firmware not the OS These are the type of ATMs found in bars and convenience stores He found he could upgrade the firmware via the USB interface The key provided by one ATM opened all others of the same model He also demonstrated a remote hack of the ATMs over the telephone more dangerous hack

8 Types of Bank Fraud Phishing Scams Phony Fraud Alert Credit Card Scams Card Skimming Nigerian 419 Scams Check overpayment Scams Transferring money Spyware and keylogging

9 Recent hacks this year As Social Networking develops into a payment model, the hacking in more than a nuisance problem, real money is being scammed. Koobface Has tormented users of numerous social networks for the past two years or so, including MySpace and Facebook. During that time, Koobface has evolved in a number of ways, and has been linked to rogue antivirus and malware posing as an Adobe Flash Player update. Weekend of the Clickjack During Memorial Day weekend, a clickjacking worm squirmed its way into the lives of hundreds of thousands of Facebook users. The scam worked this way: A message such as "The Prom Dress That Got This Girl Suspended from School" was used as a lure. Clicking on the link that came with the message led users to a third-party site, and clicking anywhere on that page published the initial message on the victim's Facebook page, marked the page as something the user liked and recommended the page to their Facebook friends. In response, Facebook blocked the malicious site associated with the attack.

10 Malicious Applications From time to time, social networks are hit with malicious applications. Trend Micro recently found a number of rogue apps on Facebook (with names such as "Stream" and "Birthday Invitations") that sent users to a known phishing domain with a page claiming they needed to enter their login credentials to use the application. Victims would then be directed to the Facebook site. Facebook removed six of the apps identified by Trend by Aug. 20. Unfortunately, more popped up. Users should be wary of applications from unknown developers and that request personal information.

11 Malvertising Hits Farm Town In April, users of the popular "Farm Town" game on Facebook were hit with a rogue antivirus scam tied to malicious advertising. Command and Control In 2009, security expert Jose Nazario found attackers were using Twitter as a means to send commands to infected computers. In July, EMC's RSA security division uncovered a scheme that used an unidentified social networking site to send commands to a Brazilian banker Trojan. The good news is once detected, removing these types of C&C points is relatively simple and quick.

12 Distracting Beach Babes Just when you thought it was safe to click on a link with a racy picture, the "Distracting Beach Babes" attack struck. Messages were posted on the walls of Facebook users, and the thousands who clicked on the messages were directed to a rogue Facebook app that, if given permission to run, urges users to upgrade their FLV player and directs them to download adware to their computer. Dislike the Disliking Scam This survey scam spread virally throughout Facebook. Using the tried-and-true method of enticing messages about celebrities and news (for example, "Justin Bieber trying to flirt"), the scammers tried to trick users into giving them access to their profiles. If a user installed the "dislike button," the app updated their Facebook status to promote the link that tricked them. The app then prompted users to fill out an online survey and directed them to a Firefox browser add-on.

13 20/9/10 Issues Facing IT Managers

14 OATH History Created 5 years ago to provide open source strong authentication. It is an industry-wide collaboration that.. Leverages existing standards and creates an open reference architecture for strong authentication which users and service providers can rely upon, and leverage to interoperate. Reduces the cost and complexity of adopting strong authentication solutions. 20/9/10 Q1

15 OATH : Background Networked entities face three major challenges today. Theft of or unauthorized access to confidential data. The inability to share data over a network without an increased security risk limits organizations. The lack of a viable single sign-on framework inhibits the growth of electronic commerce and networked operations. 20/9/10 Q1

16 OATH : Justification The Initiative for Open Authentication (OATH) addresses these challenges with standard, open technology that is available to all. OATH is taking an all-encompassing approach, delivering solutions that allow for strong authentication of all users on all devices, across all networks. The use of Multi-factor authentication products with an OATH application will protect against The ATM hacks mentioned previously. Q1

Steady Progress Q3

43 Risk Based Authentication Architecture Risk-based authentication Convenient authentication for low risk transactions Stronger authentication for higher risk transactions OATH will define standardized interfaces Risk Evaluation Sharing fraud information (ThraudReport) Q7

44 Authentication and Identity Sharing Promotes use of single credential across applications Force multiplier! Multiple approaches One size does not fit all Models that leverage identity sharing technologies Liberty, SAML, OpenID, etc. Models to enable sharing of 2 nd factor authentication only Simpler liability models

45 Authentication Sharing Centralized Token Service model Token is validated centrally in the validation service Same token can be activated at multiple sites Easy integration for application web site(s). Can leverage OATH Validation Service work! Q8

46 Authentication Sharing Distributed Validation Model Inspired by DNS Rich set of deployment models Standalone system can join the network by publishing token discovery information There needs to be a central Token Lookup Service. OATH considering developing Token Lookup protocol. Q8

47 Authentication Sharing Credential Wallet Shared device Multiple credentials Credentials are dynamically provisioned onto the device. Leverage OATH Provisioning specifications. Q8

48 Identity Federation & OATH Enables user to use same identity across website(s) Traditional federation (Liberty) User-centric models (OpenID, CardSpace) Single Identity becomes more valuable Needs to protected using strong authentication OATH: promote the user of strong authentication with these technologies!
