How Hackers Hack Many Techniques Social Engineering Get someone to give you their password Cracking Guessing passwords A six letter password (no caps) > 300 million possibilities Merriam-Webster's citation files, which were begun in the 1880s, now contain 15.7 million examples of words used in context and cover all aspects of the English vocabulary. http://www.m-w.com/help/faq/words_in.htm Buffer Overflows Getting code to run on other PCs Load a Trojan or BackDoor Snoop and Sniff Steal data Denial of Service (DOS) Crash or cripple a Computer from another computer Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) Crash or cripple a Computer from multiple distributed computers
6
DOS attacks Kill the PC with one packet Exploits problem in O/S Teardrop WinNuke Kill the PC with lots of packets Smurf Frag Tribal Flood Network

Attacks Requiring Protection Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attacks Make the system unavailable (crash it or make it run very slowly) by sending one message or a stream of messages. Loss of availability Single Message DOS Attack (Crashes the Victim) ServerAttacker
9
Attacks Requiring Protection Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attacks Make the system unusable (crash it or make it run very slowly) by sending one message or a stream of messages. Loss of availability. Message Stream DOS Attack (Overloads the Victim) ServerAttacker
10
Distributed Denial-of-Service Attacks Distributed DOS (DDoS) Attack: Messages Come from Many Sources Server DoS Attack Packets Computer with Zombie Computer with Zombie Attacker Attack Command Attack Command
11
Attacks Requiring Protection Malicious Content Viruses Infect files propagate by executing infected program Payloads may be destructive Worms propagate by themselves Trojan horses appear to be one thing, such as a game, but actually are malicious Snakes: combine worm with virus, Trojan horses, and other attacks
12
Trojan’s and BackDoors The trick is get the a backdoor (unauthorized entry) on a machine Easy way Get the user to load it himself Cracked Software (WAREZ) Free Software (KAZAA) Hard Way Get a password Create a buffer overflow Microsoft can teach you how Most Common Trojans and backdoors SubSeven ServU Netbus Back Orifice If have download cracked software (illegal) or have loaded KAZAA or downloaded movies (adult or mainstream) chances are that you have been hacked!
13
I get at least one of these a day.

Dangers of Wireless Networking Wi-Fi was designed as an OPEN technology which provides EASE of ACCESS It’s the hacker’s dream environment See wireless_insecurity.pdfwireless_insecurity.pdf Also http://www.cs.wright.edu/~pmateti/InternetSecurit y/Lectures/WirelessHacks/Mateti- WirelessHacks.htm http://www.cs.wright.edu/~pmateti/InternetSecurit y/Lectures/WirelessHacks/Mateti- WirelessHacks.htm Common hacks Wardriving Evil twin Cloning Snooping
17
802.11 (in)Security Attackers can lurk outside your premises In “war driving,” drive around sniffing out unprotected wireless LANs In “drive by hacking,” eavesdrop on conversations or mount active attacks. Site with 802.11 WLAN Outside Attacker Doonesbury July 21, 2002
18
Evil twin hack Masquerade as a legitimate WiFi access point Classic man in the middle attack
19
WiFi (& Cell) Cloning Since all wireless technologies require broadcasting of some sort all you need to do is listen in Scanner For any device to “connect” it must Indentify, Validate, verify, provide a code or some mechanism Ex, MAC’s, EISN’s, SSN, WEP secrets, etc Since you can “listen” you can also record Record the first part of any connection Replay it You have just “cloned” the original device
20
Web Bugs Web Bugs are used to gather information about a users From “bugging” a room Down by embedding a piece of code monitoring software in a image link Works on WebPages and HTML e-mail Often called Clear gifs Small 1X1 pixels Transparent Made so that uses don’t see them Every Time the Web Bugs is loaded it gathers info about the user that activated the web bug and sends it off to a remote server
21
DoubleClick Clear GIFs
22
How Phishing Works Phishing is “fishing for suckers!” Send a e-mail that mimics the real thing and get the recipient to give their password
24
Echelon Global Electronic Spy network http://www.hermetic.ch/crypto/echelon/echelon.ht m http://www.hermetic.ch/crypto/echelon/echelon.ht m It exists but little is known on exactly how it works The basics Collect all electronic conversations Crack all encrypted stuff Search all conversations for “key words” Find the “speakers”

Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations27 Using UNIX/Linux Tools (continued) The Auditor –Robust security tool whose logo is a Trojan warrior –Based on Knoppix and contains more than 300 tools for network scanning, brute-force attacks, Bluetooth and wireless networks, and more –Includes forensics tools, such as Autopsy and Sleuth –Easy to use and frequently updated
28
Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations28 Using Packet Sniffers Packet sniffers –Devices or software that monitor network traffic –Most work at layer 2 or 3 of the OSI model Most tools follow the PCAP format Some packets can be identified by examining the flags in their TCP headers Tools –Tcpdump –Tethereal

Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations36 Examining the Honeynet Project Attempt to thwart Internet and network hackers –Provides information about attacks methods Objectives are awareness, information, and tools Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks –A recent major threat –Hundreds or even thousands of machines (zombies) can be used http://www.honeynet.org/
37
Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations37 Examining the Honeynet Project (continued)
38
Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations38 Examining the Honeynet Project (continued) Zero day attacks –Another major threat –Attackers look for holes in networks and OSs and exploit these weaknesses before patches are available Honeypot –Normal looking computer that lures attackers to it Honeywalls –Monitor what’s happening to honeypots on your network and record what attackers are doing
39
Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations39 Examining the Honeynet Project (continued) Its legality has been questioned –Cannot be used in court –Can be used to learn about attacks Manuka Project –Used the Honeynet Project’s principles To create a usable database for students to examine compromised honeypots Honeynet Challenges –http://www.honeynet.org/misc/chall.htmlhttp://www.honeynet.org/misc/chall.html –You can try to ascertain what an attacker did and then post your results online

Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations41 Summary Network forensics tracks down internal and external network intrusions Networks must be hardened by applying layered defense strategies to the network architecture Live acquisitions are necessary to retrieve volatile items Standard procedures need to be established for how to proceed after a network security event has occurred
42
Guide to Computer Forensics and Investigations42 Summary (continued) By tracking network logs, you can become familiar with the normal traffic pattern on your network Network tools can monitor traffic on your network, but they can also be used by intruders Bootable Linux CDs, such as Knoppix STD and Helix, can be used to examine Linux and Windows systems The Honeynet Project is designed to help people learn the latest intrusion techniques that attackers are using
