Evolution of Availability Threats
Exploit Trends
Three Key Threat Categories Reconnaissance Unauthorized discovery and mapping of systems, services, or vulnerabilities Access Unauthorized data manipulation, system access, or privilege escalation Denial of Service Disable or corrupt networks, systems, or services
How do these impact ISPs? Reconnaissance – Happens all the time. It is part of the “ attack noise ” of the Internet (along with low level attacks and backscatter). Access – Break-ins on the edge of an ISP ’ s network (I.e. customer CPE equipment) can impact the ISP ’ s core. DOS – The core threat to an ISP – knocking out customers, infrastructure, and services.
Reconnaissance Methods Common commands and administrative utilities nslookup, ping, netcat, telnet, finger, rpcinfo, File Explorer, srvinfo, dumpacl Public tools Sniffers, SATAN, SAINT, NMAP, custom scripts
Network Sniffer
nmap
Why Do We Care?
Access Methods
Access Methods (cont.)
Denial of Service Methods Resource Overload Disk space, bandwidth, buffers,... Ping floods, SYN flood, UDP bombs,... Software bugs Out of Band Data Crash: Ping of death, fragmentation … Toolkits TRINOO, Tribal Flood Net and friends Distributed attacks for amplification
DoS
DoS type Resource Overload Disk space, bandwidth, buffers,... Ping floods, SYN flood, UDP bombs,... Out of Band Data Crash Ping of death,... Routing Capacity Fill up packet buffers, queues, flow tables, and processing capabilities.
DoS Sequence
DDoS
DDoS Step 1: Crack Handlers and Agents
DDoS Step 2: Install Trojan & Covert Communication Channel
DDoS Step 3: Launch the Attack
DDOS Attack Characteristics DDOS Arrays (handlers and agents) a maintenance intensive. Take time and effort to create. Launching attacks from an agent can be considered a one shot weapon. Once the attack is launched, there is a risk of traceback. If someone traces back to the agent, they could watch and wait to see if the perpetrator returns to the agent.

Incident Response Team A Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) is a team that performs, coordinates, and supports the response to security incidents that involve sites within a defined constituency.
ISP Security ISP need to: Protect themselves Help protect their customers from the Internet Protect the Internet from their customers At any given time there are between 20 to 40 DOS/DDOS attacks on the Net
Role of Service Providers
ISP Security Actions
Policy
Avoid extensive damage to data, systems and networks due to not taking timely action to contain an intrusion Minimize the possibility of an intrusion affecting multiple systems both inside and outside an organization because staff did not know who to notify and what actions to take. Avoid negative exposure in the news media that can damage an organization ’ s public image and reputation. Avoid possible legal liability and prosecution for failure to exercise due care when systems are inadvertently or intentionally used to attack others.
Preparing to Respond Create an archive of original media, configuration files, and security-related patches for all router and host operating systems and application software versions Ensure that backup tools and procedures are working Create a database of contact information Select and install tools to use when responding to intrusions
Preparing to Respond (Cont.) Develop a plan and process to configure isolated test systems and networks when required Keep response plans, procedures and tools up to date Consider performing a practice drill to test tools and procedures

What Do ISPs Need to Do?
Components of Response Analyze the event Contain the incident Eliminate intruder access Restore operations Update procedures based on lessons learned
Analyze Event What systems were used to gain access What systems were accessed by the intruder What information assets were available to those systems? What an intruder did after obtaining access What an intruder is currently doing
Contain the Intrusion Gain control of the systems involved Attempt to deny an intruder access to prevent further damage Monitor systems and networks for subsequent intruder access attempts
Eliminate Intruder Access Change all passwords on all systems accessed Restore system and application software and data, as needed What other systems might be vulnerable?
Restore Operations Validate the restored system Monitor systems and networks Notify users and management that systems are again operational
