A Practical Approach to Manage Phishing Incident with URL Filtering KasomKoth-Arsa, SurachaiChitpinityon, JulllawadeeManeesilp Kasetsart University, Bangkok, Thailand.
Agenda • Introduction • Objective • Phishing Management System • Conclusion
Introduction • What is Phishing? • Why Phishing is important? • Who are our concern about Phishing?
What is Phishing? • Phishing is an online form of deception • Attacker pretends to be someone else • To obtain sensitive information from the victim
Why phishing is important? • A serious threat to Internet usage • Growing very fast • Frauds that affect many websites and organizations • More advanced and complex techniques • to convert the organization websites to the seemingly trusted financial websites to gain confidential user information.
Who are our concern about phishing? • One of the most attacked organizations is education institution. • Organize their network systems by dividing into many sub-departments. • This hierarchical structure causes challenge in management effectiveness and network-security enforcement.
UniNet UniNet • Largest university network provider in Thailand running by Ministry of Education • 1Gbps and 10Gbps link countrywide • UniNet has 431 member institutes • 240 Universities • 134 Vocational School • 57 Primary School • 100,000 plus users Phishing becomes a serious problem!
Objective • Developing a phishing management solution which covers to handle the whole anti-phishing processes for UniNet • Systematic procedure • Fast response • Tracking, monitoring and collecting phishing information • Intelligent URL Filtering system to enforce the blocking specified URL • Block only the phishing URL, not the whole site
Phishing Management System • System Module • Account Management • Ticket Management • Web Filtering • Interaction Diagram • Use Case Diagram • System Configuration
System Module Account Management Incident Management Tracker & Reporter Ticket Management Account Database PhishingDatabase URL Filtering
Account Management Module • Users must register with our system before report the phishing website • Using the following information: • Full name • Company • E-mail • Username • Password • Identification procedure
Ticket management module Ticket management • Manage Phishing events • Easy to manage and track incidents using ticket status Incident management Tracking & Reporting Created Opened Verified Deleted Canceled Blocked Site Take Down Closed
URL Filtering (Web Screen) • Phishing system can block/unblock web access to the phishing site through the URL filtering system. URL Filtering TCP Session Hijacking Technique • Intercept HTTP request Inject forged HTTP reply Block or redirect access of any given URL
? ? Gateway Internet 1 2 2 Client 3 Filtering Engine Pass-by URL Filtering • Traffics are captured and passed by without queuing • Zero delay, independent from traffic volume • Ease of Installation (No Traffic Interruption) • Non Blocking Traffic Stream • No Single Point of Failure • Scalable

Conclusion • Phishing Management System is now initial deploy on UniNet Infrastructure • Enable UniNet to response quicker to phishing incident • Enable a statistic logging that helps UniNet anticipate the future problem and improve network security • Design for handle 10Gbps Network (need some more hardware to complete)
