Hi Emilie,

We do not see your virtual machine connecting back to us. If that is what Peet meant, I’ve copied our IT team to troubleshoot the install directly. If that is not what he meant, please clarify when you can.

Thank you!

Hi Emilie,

Great question! We need the documentation request before the start of the engagement, which is May 1. That being said, if you are able to fill out any portion of the document before our kickoff call on Thursday, please do so (even if it’s incomplete).

Thank you for uploading the TTQ! I am checking with our internal IT team to see if your VM is connecting back to us, and I will get back to you shortly (I assume that is what Peet means?)

Hi Emilie,

Sounds great! I will send over the Zoom call calendar invite here shortly for Thursday the 20th at 11am MT (call will be approx. 1hr).

Below are some items to note inbold that we will need to have prior to testing (you have plenty of time to work on this - no immediate rush)

-  Technical Testing Questionnaire(TTQ)to be complete and uploaded to ShareFile (let me know if you need a fresh copy of this document). Additionally, please make sure to read the instructions for the virtual machine download if you elect to use a virtual machine (vs. a physical device) for the Internal penetration testing. Please have it completed prior to our kickoff call and upload it to the project ShareFile folder

https://lmgsecurity.sharefile.com/f/fo2c13da-7faa-4e8c-8b48-c5ae920f9bc3

-  IP Verification: On the TTQ, we will need you to provide the list of target IP addresses in advance, as well as any information necessary to verify that the targeted addresses belong to you for the External penetration test.

-  For the Security Fundamentals Control Assessment: I have uploaded information into the project Sharefile folder under LMG uploads - Security Engagement Quick Start Guide ('EQSG’) anddocument and interview request Excel Workbook to discuss during the kickoff call

Be in touch soon, thanks again!

Hi Emily,

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Let me know whatever works better for you.

Hi Emilie,

Hope you are doing well! I just wanted to touch base regarding the technical testing that we are performing in May:

-  External Penetration Test(‘EPT') starts on05/08/23 and finishes 05/09: Performed by LMG consultant Brandon Kirkbride

-  Internal Penetration Test (‘IPT') starts on05/01/23 and finishes 05/03: Performed by LMG consultant Emily Gosney

-  Security Fundamentals Technical Testing(‘SFTT’) + Continuous Vulnerability Scans ('CVS’): Tenable portal set up for scans are to start on05/02/23 : Performed by LMG consultant Alex Rogers

Now that we are getting closer to testing, I thought it would be a good time to hold the kickoff call with each of the consultants to discuss the components and to confirm the schedule with you.

How is your early April looking? Below is our upcoming avalibility for a kickoff call:

Wednesday, 04/05: 12 - 2pm MT

Hi Emilie,

Thanks for your patience while we coordinated what would be best for your CEO’s ask. There are 2 handouts that we think would be best:

[Business Email Compromise handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/business-email-compromise/)

[How to Spot a Phishing Email handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/how-to-spot-a-phishing-email/)

Please let me know if there are any other resources I can help with at this time.

Hi Natalie,

Awesome.

This is what my CEO emailed me:

“My hot button “issue” right now is internal and external emails. There are other subjects I'm sure..but I’d like to know …what is normal now…what is best practice etc.

That is ….what is ok to be in an email, etc.”

Does that help at all?😊

Are you trying to help people avoid phishing emails? Prevent email hacking? Help people understand why they need MFA for email?

The folder setup for you is titled 00270-2022-001. Be sure to check your junk email folder if you do not receive the notification and let me know if you have any trouble with access. If there is anyone else who should have access, please let me know and I will add them.

Attached, is aTechnical Testing Questionnaire(TTQ). Please have it completed prior to our kickoff call and uploaded to ShareFile here:https://lmgsecurity.sharefile.com/f/fo2c13da-7faa-4e8c-8b48-c5ae920f9bc3

Hi Emilie,

Great question! We need the documentation request before the start of the engagement, which is May 1. That being said, if you are able to fill out any portion of the document before our kickoff call on Thursday, please do so (even if it’s incomplete).

Thank you for uploading the TTQ! I am checking with our internal IT team to see if your VM is connecting back to us, and I will get back to you shortly (I assume that is what Peet means?)

Hi Emily,

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Let me know whatever works better for you.

Hi Emilie,

-  External Penetration Test(‘EPT') starts on05/08/23 and finishes 05/09: Performed by LMG consultant Brandon Kirkbride

-  Internal Penetration Test (‘IPT') starts on05/01/23 and finishes 05/03: Performed by LMG consultant Emily Gosney

-  Security Fundamentals Technical Testing(‘SFTT’) + Continuous Vulnerability Scans ('CVS’): Tenable portal set up for scans are to start on05/02/23 : Performed by LMG consultant Alex Rogers

Now that we are getting closer to testing, I thought it would be a good time to hold the kickoff call with each of the consultants to discuss the components and to confirm the schedule with you.

Wednesday, 04/05: 12 - 2pm MT

[How to Spot a Phishing Email handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/how-to-spot-a-phishing-email/)

That is ….what is ok to be in an email, etc.”

I will be reaching back out with you 4-6 prior to the start of testing to get the kickoff call on our calendars.

In the meantime, you should have received an email from ShareFile, our secure document sharing platform. This is our preferred method for sharing confidential information during the project. The folder setup for you is titled 00270-2022-001. Be sure to check your junk email folder if you do not receive the notification and let me know if you have any trouble with access. If there is anyone else who should have access, please let me know and I will add them.

Attached, is aTechnical Testing Questionnaire(TTQ). Please have it completed prior to our kickoff call and uploaded to ShareFile here:https://lmgsecurity.sharefile.com/f/fo2c13da-7faa-4e8c-8b48-c5ae920f9bc3

Hi Emilie,

Great question! We need the documentation request before the start of the engagement, which is May 1. That being said, if you are able to fill out any portion of the document before our kickoff call on Thursday, please do so (even if it’s incomplete).

Thank you for uploading the TTQ! I am checking with our internal IT team to see if your VM is connecting back to us, and I will get back to you shortly (I assume that is what Peet means?)

Hi Emily,

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Let me know whatever works better for you.

-  External Penetration Test(‘EPT') starts on05/08/23 and finishes 05/09: Performed by LMG consultant Brandon Kirkbride

-  Internal Penetration Test (‘IPT') starts on05/01/23 and finishes 05/03: Performed by LMG consultant Emily Gosney

-  Security Fundamentals Technical Testing(‘SFTT’) + Continuous Vulnerability Scans ('CVS’): Tenable portal set up for scans are to start on05/02/23 : Performed by LMG consultant Alex Rogers

Now that we are getting closer to testing, I thought it would be a good time to hold the kickoff call with each of the consultants to discuss the components and to confirm the schedule with you.

How is your early April looking? Below is our upcoming avalibility for a kickoff call:

Wednesday, 04/05: 12 - 2pm MT

[Business Email Compromise handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/business-email-compromise/)

[How to Spot a Phishing Email handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/how-to-spot-a-phishing-email/)

That is ….what is ok to be in an email, etc.”

Hi Emilie,

Great question! We need the documentation request before the start of the engagement, which is May 1. That being said, if you are able to fill out any portion of the document before our kickoff call on Thursday, please do so (even if it’s incomplete).

Thank you for uploading the TTQ! I am checking with our internal IT team to see if your VM is connecting back to us, and I will get back to you shortly (I assume that is what Peet means?)

Hi Emily,

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Let me know whatever works better for you.

Hi Emilie,

-  External Penetration Test(‘EPT') starts on05/08/23 and finishes 05/09: Performed by LMG consultant Brandon Kirkbride

-  Internal Penetration Test (‘IPT') starts on05/01/23 and finishes 05/03: Performed by LMG consultant Emily Gosney

-  Security Fundamentals Technical Testing(‘SFTT’) + Continuous Vulnerability Scans ('CVS’): Tenable portal set up for scans are to start on05/02/23 : Performed by LMG consultant Alex Rogers

Now that we are getting closer to testing, I thought it would be a good time to hold the kickoff call with each of the consultants to discuss the components and to confirm the schedule with you.

Wednesday, 04/05: 12 - 2pm MT

Great question! We need the documentation request before the start of the engagement, which is May 1. That being said, if you are able to fill out any portion of the document before our kickoff call on Thursday, please do so (even if it’s incomplete).

Thank you for uploading the TTQ! I am checking with our internal IT team to see if your VM is connecting back to us, and I will get back to you shortly (I assume that is what Peet means?)

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Let me know whatever works better for you.

Great question! We need the documentation request before the start of the engagement, which is May 1. That being said, if you are able to fill out any portion of the document before our kickoff call on Thursday, please do so (even if it’s incomplete).

Thank you for uploading the TTQ! I am checking with our internal IT team to see if your VM is connecting back to us, and I will get back to you shortly (I assume that is what Peet means?)

Hi Emily,

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Thanks for your patience while we coordinated what would be best for your CEO’s ask. There are 2 handouts that we think would be best:

[Business Email Compromise handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/business-email-compromise/)

[How to Spot a Phishing Email handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/how-to-spot-a-phishing-email/)

Please let me know if there are any other resources I can help with at this time.

Best,

Hi Natalie,

Awesome.

This is what my CEO emailed me:

“My hot button “issue” right now is internal and external emails. There are other subjects I'm sure..but I’d like to know …what is normal now…what is best practice etc.

That is ….what is ok to be in an email, etc.”

Does that help at all?😊

Thanks,

Emilie

Hi Emilie,

What a great question! We do have a variety of handouts that could help with emails. Could you please give me more info on what you’re looking for? Are you trying to help people avoid phishing emails? Prevent email hacking? Help people understand why they need MFA for email? Please let me know and I’ll happily be able to send over the resources we have available.

Below are some items to note inboldthat we will need to have prior to testing (you have plenty of time to work on this - no immediate rush)

-  Technical Testing Questionnaire(TTQ)to be complete and uploaded to ShareFile (let me know if you need a fresh copy of this document).

Please have it completed prior to our kickoff call and upload it to the project ShareFile folder

Hi Emily,

Whichever week/timeframe works better for you! One of our consultants on this engagement will be out of office next week, but we can still do the kickoff without him, and have a separate call with him later.

We can do next week on Monday the 10th and then have another shorter call scheduled the following week on Thursday 4/20 OR we can just do one hour long kickoff on Thursday 4/20 that has all consultants involved on the call.

Let me know whatever works better for you.

Hi Emilie,

Hope you are doing well! I just wanted to touch base regarding the technical testing that we are performing in May:

-  External Penetration Test(‘EPT') starts on05/08/23 and finishes 05/09: Performed by LMG consultant Brandon Kirkbride

-  Internal Penetration Test (‘IPT') starts on05/01/23 and finishes 05/03: Performed by LMG consultant Emily Gosney

-  Security Fundamentals Controls Assessment (‘SFCA') starts on05/01/23 and finishes ~05/08 : Performed by LMG consultant Parker Lee

-  Security Fundamentals Technical Testing(‘SFTT’) + Continuous Vulnerability Scans ('CVS’): Tenable portal set up for scans are to start on05/02/23 : Performed by LMG consultant Alex Rogers

Now that we are getting closer to testing, I thought it would be a good time to hold the kickoff call with each of the consultants to discuss the components and to confirm the schedule with you.

How is your early April looking? Below is our upcoming avalibility for a kickoff call:

Wednesday, 04/05: 12 - 2pm MT

Thursday, 04/06: 10:30 - 11:30am, 1-3pm MT

Hi Emilie,

Thanks for your patience while we coordinated what would be best for your CEO’s ask. There are 2 handouts that we think would be best:

[Business Email Compromise handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/business-email-compromise/)

[How to Spot a Phishing Email handout](https://www.lmgsecurity.com/resources/how-to-spot-a-phishing-email/)

Please let me know if there are any other resources I can help with at this time.

Hi Natalie,

Awesome.

This is what my CEO emailed me:

“My hot button “issue” right now is internal and external emails. There are other subjects I'm sure..but I’d like to know …what is normal now…what is best practice etc.

That is ….what is ok to be in an email, etc.”

Does that help at all?😊

Hi Emilie,

What a great question! We do have a variety of handouts that could help with emails. Could you please give me more info on what you’re looking for? Are you trying to help people avoid phishing emails? Prevent email hacking? Help people understand why they need MFA for email? Please let me know and I’ll happily be able to send over the resources we have available.

If there is anyone else who should have access, please let me know and I will add them.

On the VM appliance ...

Please correct me if I'm mistaken or point me to updated documentation, but the device needs one TCP port from 1- 65535 with outside access. The device has at minimum virtually unrestricted access to 80 and 443. So that should meet the last requirements I've seen for the device.

Allow outbound connections from VM to Internet over at least one TCP port in the range of 10-1000

But If I only let it have the regular access our devices have, it does not connect. Attached is a log for everything that's rejected after the device boots with only access to 80/443.

Do you need outbound dns to Google's public dns as well as the one TCP port?

Thanks.Peet

Hi Peet,

I added your email and the support email to the ShareFile folder where the ISO and checksums are available to download, as well as PDF guides if they help. Thanks for re-deploying a new version of the VM

Here’s a direct link to the folder. Let me know if you need anything else. The firewall rule for port 80 that you have does work, the SSH keys we used on that VM are just failing to login to our server.
