The Italian Honeynet Chapter Status Report
Agenda • The Italian HP chapter • Goals achieved • Ongoing progress • Expected goals • 3D-Problems • Conclusion
The Italian HP Chapter • Founded in 2009 • Built around the Dorothy project • A framework for tracking botnets • Currently composed by 4 volounteers • Marco Riccardi : R&D Researcher @ Barcelona Digital • Marco Cremonini : Assistant Professor @ University of Milan • Davide Cavalca : Information Security Advisor , Freelancer • Luigi D’Amato : CTO @ Partner Security Lab / Member @ Zone-H
Goals achieved 1/3 • Java Dorothy Drone Improvement (JDrone) • Tool for (IRC) botnet infiltration • Totally rewritten in Java • totally multiplatform • yes, even on windows! • Distribuited infrastructure • Distribuited drone instances • One central Log Server • One Authentication server
The JDrone • how does it work?
C&C #2 C&C #1 C&CIP: 11.11.11.11:6666 Command#1 Command#2 Command#3 JD-Drone Authentication Server JD-Drone C&CIP: 11.11.11.11:6666 Command#1 Command#2 Command#3 JDDrone Log Server Dorthy Web GUI
Goals achieved 2/3 • Relationshipformed • Telecom Italia, Security Lab (Honeypotimplementation,knoledge sharing) • Barcelona Digital (Server hosting, knowledgesharing) • Graduatingstudentsupport • Fivegraduatingstudents of the Universityof Milan (DTI) are currentlydoingtheir final Thesis on Dorothy related sub-projects. • The JDrone Project - Patrizia Martemucci, Andrea Cavenago • Botnet Protocol Analysis - Marco Addario – 04/2011 • Zeus analysis/detection module - Giampaolo Dedola – 02/2011 • Low-Interaction Honeypot Implementation - Stefano Fornara – Stage in Telecom Italia Labs – 04/2011
Goals achieved 3/3 • Attended confereces • Italian Security Summit 2010, Milan, IT • inBot 2010, Bonn, DE • APWG 2010, Dallas, USA* (paper presented) • Two IEEE publications • “The Dorothy Project: An Open Botnet Analysis Framework for Automatic Tracking and Activity Visualization” - Cremonini M., Riccardi M. • “A framework for financial botnet analysis” - Riccardi M., Cremonini M., Oro D.,Vilanova M., Luna J. • Awards: • Second placed at “Best italian thesis on information security” Clusit 2010 • “IEEE eCrime Fighters Scholarship Award”, APWG 2010* *Paper presented by Barcelona Digital. However the proposed system heavly relies on a customized version of Dorothy.
Ongoing progress 1/2 • Porting to Ruby • (+ Rails ...I wish..) • Porting the virtualization module to VMWare ESXi • Testing the first beta of the JDrone • any volounteers for betatesting? • Compatibility with HTTP botnets (Zeus+SpyEye as first) – For Zeus 1.x almost done
Ongoing progress 2/2 • Database migration to Postgres - almost done • Improving visualization techniques (FlashCharts) – almost done • Improving the Web GUI • Improving “real time” data visualization (AJAX) • Improving its interactiveness • ...still waiting to kick off this task
Future Goals “What are we going to do tonight, Brain?”
Tactical goals • Tool improvements • Implement the new Dorothy framework • Finish the database implementation • Finish the ruby porting phase • Finish the new visualization module • Execute Dorothy 24hx7d • Relase the first beta of the JDRONE • Honeypot Implementation • Implement at least 10 new low interaction honeypots (dionaea+mwcollectd) among USA, EU, ASIA
Strategic goals • Presentations • 2011 – Honeynet Project Annual workshop – Paris (Done! ) • Presentation about the JDRone as soon as a stable version is relased • …as more than possible! • Publications • One about data gathered from the new version of the framework (JDrone included) • ….others will depend on the development progress • Improve relationships • Italian/Spanish universities • Italian/Spanish CERTS • Italian/Spanish LEAs
3D-Problems • Resources($) • Dorothy needs a big server for its malware analysis module • After 3 years, finally we found it! • Time (dT) • The big majority of the people involved are currently working for private companies (even the graduating students)... • The whole project is totally developed during spare time (very low!) • Space (dS) • 4 members, 4 cities, 4 companies, 3 countries • Coordination lack Slow development
Conclusion • Almost two years of development • So far so good… • Ongoing work • Dorothy improvement, second version close to be relased • Expectations • Clear and concrete goals • Problems • Our 3D problem vision
Lets - Demo! • The Dorothy WGUI • The JDRone
