  1. Network Security: Lab#5Port Scanners and Intrusion Detection System J. H. Wang Dec. 3, 2013

  2. Objectives • To learn to use port scanners • Nmap • To introduce the ideas of intrusion detection system • Snort

  3. Packages Used in this Lab • Packages • Nmap • Snort

  4. Experiment Scenario • Port scanners • Use port scanners to check the potential weakness in a system • Vulnerable ports • System types

  5. Nmap • Homepage: http://nmap.org/ • Version: • 6.40 • Platforms: Linux/FreeBSD/Windows/MacOS X • Installation steps • Simply follow the instructions on screen

  6. Example Usage for Nmap • Enter an IP address (or hostname) in [Target], and press [Scan] • Open ports will be listed • Type of OS will be detected • Many types of Scans • TCP scan • SYN scan • UDP scan • ACK scan • Window scan • FIN scan • Others: proxy scan, ICMP scan, …

  7. Web-based Port Scanners • Examples • http://viewdns.info/portscan/

  8. Nessus • Homepage: http://www.tenable.com/products/nessus • Latest version: 5.2.4 • Originally open source, but now proprietary by Tenable Network Security • Free to use in homes • Installation skipped

  9. Intrusion Detection Systems • Host-based IDS (HIDS) • To monitor the status of files in a system • File integrity checking, log analysis • E.g. Tripwire, OSSEC • Network-based IDS (NIDS) • To detect the malicious network traffic such as DoS attacks • E.g. Snort

  10. Tripwire • Originally open source, but now commercial • Open source Tripwire available, which is based on previous open-source versions • http://sf.net/projects/tripwire/

  11. OSSEC • Originally open source, but acquired by Trend Micro • Will remain to be open source (as claimed by Trend Micro) • http://www.ossec.net/

  12. Snort • Homepage: http://www.snort.org/ • Latest version: 2.9.5.6 • Platforms: • Linux/Windows • An open-source NIDS, which also requires WinPcap • Installation steps • Simply follow the instructions on screen • Note: In [Installation Options], please check [Enable IPv6 support] for demo of IDS functions

  13. Example Usage for Snort • cd \snort • Sniffer mode: (default) • To show headers only: bin\snort -v • To show headers and data: bin\snort -vd • A more descriptive display: bin\snort -vde • Packet logger mode • To records packets in logging directory: • bin\snort -dev -l log • To log in binary mode • bin\snort -l log -b • To playback the packets in log • bin\snort -r packet.log

  14. Network intrusion detection system mode • bin\snort -l log -c etc\snort.conf • (Some problems with the configuration file to work in Windows…) • You need to understand how to write the rules for intrusion detection…

  15. Summary • Port scanners • Nmap • Intrusion detection system • Snort
