How do you practice grace in ministry? What does that look like? When we talk about ministry one should view it as a gift from God, this is how the apostle Paul viewed it. Paul said that his apostleship is a gift of grace from God. it wasn't something he earned, it was a privilege to him. So how do we cultivate this same attitude and put it into practice? This is a special podcast that is a rebroadcast of a live webinar with Mark Ray of Grace Center for Spiritual Development (GCSD). This webinar featured a discussion with Charlie who helped author some of the materials provided by GCSD. The book, Living by Grace, is available right now and it focused on how grace can help us in ministry.   Help Support This Podcast and GraceLife Ministries.

In episode 1 of the Know Your Adversary Podcast, we are joined by Mark Ray, former FBI Special Agent, Kamal Ghali  former Assistant US Attorney and current partner at Bondurant, Mixon & Elmore, and former FBI Forensics Expert and current Technical Principal at Nisos Willis McDonald. We discuss  one of the most famous cyber criminal cases of the 21st century, the attribution and takedown of Spyeye malware developer Alexander Panin and his primary facilitator Hamza Bendallaj. Spyeye was commodity malware that was sold on dark web marketplaces beginning in 2009. The malware was a program that ran on numerous browsers and operating systems allowing hackers to steal money from online bank accounts and initiate transactions even while valid users were logged into the bank account. Over seven years, the losses to consumers and enterprises exceeded $500 million worldwide. The investigation and takedown of  Panin and Bendallaj culminated in 2016 when they were sentenced to a combined 24 years and 6 months in prison.   Here are some of the key takeaways from the episode.   The Real and Fake Lives of Personas Used By Cyber Criminals Online Often Intersect. Just like an enterprise, cyber criminals consider their return on investment when engaging in malicious activity. Just like Alexander Panin and Hamza Bendellaj did when they were establishing their complex web of bots and proxy servers, current criminals want to monetize crime as quickly as possible.  They want to scale their activities so it can be replicated between numerous victims and maximize their profits. When they do this, they often make operational security mistakes.   Identifying these mistakes are key to remediation.   Criminals and Nation States Purchase Malicious Command and Control Servers Near Victim’s Locations to Reduce Malicious Signature. Attackers will not typically link their activity directly to their destination command and control servers in Russia or Eastern Europe. Typically, they establish C2 nodes near server farms, virtual physical locations, or individual machines physically located near their victims.  In this case, Bendallaj and Panin used servers in Atlanta. Gaining access to the local infrastructure can provide critical information about the commands and signatures the attackers used in their attacks.

Mark Ray is a Teacher Librarian and Free Range Educator in Vancouver, Washington, just outside of Portland, Oregon. His extensive school library background within schools and at the district level make him the perfect person to talk about the role of school librarians in this OER work. Since the role of librarian is largely one of curation and he has quite a bit of experience with this, I wanted to hear from Mark how he helps content teachers search and discover resources to use, why school librarians are critical to have in curriculum work, and what school librarian work looks like in 2020.If you want to learn more about how to get started with OER, please check out the New America project site called PreK-12 OER in Practice at newamerica.org/prek12oer. Here you’ll find information about how districts are doing this, including a map of districts using OER, as well as resources for getting started in your search, and for professional learning. You’ll also find the  #GoOpen District Launch Packet, which outlines the five most common phases of rolling out this type of work in a district.  Mark Ray’s Twitter profile: https://twitter.com/_TeacherX
