Diseño, implementación y análisis de un sistema de detección de fraude online
2016Co-Authors: Corrales Casas, José CarlosAbstract:Los mecanismos de seguridad convencionales centran sus esfuerzos en crear un perímetro de seguridad que evite que sus sistemas sean atacados. Sin embargo, en la sociedad 2.0 actual se hace imprescindible preocuparse por identificar los ataques que se llevan a cabo a las personas fuera del control tradicional. Entre estas amenazas a usuarios finales, las herramientas más utilizadas por los atacantes son los ataques de suplantación de identidad, envenenamiento de DNS o software malicioso. En todos ellos los ciberdelincuentes utilizan diversas técnicas de planificación y distribución, lo que hace más complicado poder tener visibilidad de los ataques en fase temprana. Este falta de visibilidad a tiempo, implica que numerosos usuarios sean víctimas de los ataques mucho antes de que estos puedan ser identificados por los equipos de seguridad, poniendo de manifiesto la necesidad de algún sistema que permita minimizar estos retrasos y dote de soluciones a los administradores de seguridad para poder mitigar los ataques antes de que varios usuarios hayan sido afectados por los mismos. En este Proyecto Final de Carrera se pretende cubrir parte de esta carencia diseñando un sistema de detección y análisis de fraude online. Este sistema permitirá detectar los ataques definidos en el párrafo anterior y los filtrará para lograr optimizar el tiempo de gestión de los administradores de seguridad. Para ello se utilizarán diversos mecanismos de detección en paralelo que permitan recolectar información en todos aquellos puntos donde los ataques son más visibles. De este modo se podrá minimizar el tiempo de vida de los ataques y se podrá mitigar el impacto de los mismos.Current Security solutions are focused on build a strong perimeter in order to protect their systems from the attackers. However, 2.0 society requires additional solutions which allow Security Researcher to detect and mitigate attacks against users out of the perimeter. The most common weapons that are being used by the attackers are the Phishing scams, the pharming scams and the malware scams. In all of them the cibercriminals use different distribution methods and even different planning techniques, because of that is harder to identify the attacks in real time. This lack of visibility, implies that a lot of users can be compromised before than the attacks are detected by the Security administrators. In this scenario, is needed a new mechanism that minimize the delay between the attack distribution and the attack detection. During this Proyecto Final de Carrera (PFC) is going to be designed and implemented a tool to cover this lack, an online fraud detection tool. This system will detect most common fraud attacks, and will process and filter them in order to optimize the threat time management. In order to achieve the project’s goals, the tool will include different mechanisms for detecting data. Thereby the Security administrators will reduce the lifetime of the attacks and will mitigate their impact

rootkits subverting the windows kernel
2005Co-Authors: Greg Hoglund, Jamie ButlerAbstract:"It's imperative that everybody working in the field of cyber-Security read this book to understand the growing threat of rootkits." --Mark Russinovich, editor, Windows IT Pro / Windows & .NET Magazine"This material is not only up-to-date, it defines up-to-date. It is truly cutting-edge. As the only book on the subject, Rootkits will be of interest to any Windows Security Researcher or Security programmer. It's detailed, well researched and the technical information is excellent. The level of technical detail, research, and time invested in developing relevant examples is impressive. In one word: Outstanding." --Tony Bautts, Security Consultant; CEO, Xtivix, Inc."This book is an essential read for anyone responsible for Windows Security. Security professionals, Windows system administrators, and programmers in general will want to understand the techniques used by rootkit authors. At a time when many IT and Security professionals are still worrying about the latest e-mail virus or how to get all of this month's Security patches installed, Mr. Hoglund and Mr. Butler open your eyes to some of the most stealthy and significant threats to the Windows operating system. Only by understanding these offensive techniques can you properly defend the networks and systems for which you are responsible." --Jennifer Kolde, Security Consultant, Author, and Instructor"What's worse than being owned? Not knowing it. Find out what it means to be owned by reading Hoglund and Butler's first-of-a-kind book on rootkits. At the apex the malicious hacker toolset--which includes decompilers, disassemblers, fault-injection engines, kernel debuggers, payload collections, coverage tools, and flow analysis tools--is the rootkit. Beginning where Exploiting Software left off, this book shows how attackers hide in plain sight. "Rootkits are extremely powerful and are the next wave of attack technology. Like other types of malicious code, rootkits thrive on stealthiness. They hide away from standard system observers, employing hooks, trampolines, and patches to get their work done. Sophisticated rootkits run in such a way that other programs that usually monitor machine behavior can't easily detect them. A rootkit thus provides insider access only to people who know that it is running and available to accept commands. Kernel rootkits can hide files and running processes to provide a backdoor into the target machine. "Understanding the ultimate attacker's tool provides an important motivator for those of us trying to defend systems. No authors are better suited to give you a detailed hands-on understanding of rootkits than Hoglund and Butler. Better to own this book than to be owned." --Gary McGraw, Ph.D., CTO, Cigital, coauthor of Exploiting Software (2004) and Building Secure Software (2002), both from Addison-Wesley"Greg and Jamie are unquestionably the go-to experts when it comes to subverting the Windows API and creating rootkits. These two masters come together to pierce the veil of mystery surrounding rootkits, bringing this information out of the shadows. Anyone even remotely interested in Security for Windows systems, including forensic analysis, should include this book very high on their must-read list." --Harlan Carvey, author of Windows Forensics and Incident Recovery (Addison-Wesley, 2005)Rootkits are the ultimate backdoor, giving hackers ongoing and virtually undetectable access to the systems they exploit. Now, two of the world's leading experts have written the first comprehensive guide to rootkits: what they are, how they work, how to build them, and how to detect them. Rootkit.com's Greg Hoglund and James Butler created and teach Black Hat's legendary course in rootkits. In this book, they reveal never-before-told offensive aspects of rootkit technology--learn how attackers can get in and stay in for years, without detection.Hoglund and Butler show exactly how to subvert the Windows XP and Windows 2000 kernels, teaching concepts that are easily applied to virtually any modern operating system, from Windows Server 2003 to Linux and UNIX. Using extensive downloadable examples, they teach rootkit programming techniques that can be used for a wide range of software, from white hat Security tools to operating system drivers and debuggers.After reading this book, readers will be able to Understand the role of rootkits in remote command/control and software eavesdropping Build kernel rootkits that can make processes, files, and directories invisible Master key rootkit programming techniques, including hooking, runtime patching, and directly manipulating kernel objects Work with layered drivers to implement keyboard sniffers and file filters Detect rootkits and build host-based intrusion prevention software that resists rootkit attacksVisit rootkit.com for code and programs from this book.

boosting Researcher Security vulnerability etc
2016Co-Authors: Josh More, Anthony J Stieber, Chris LiuAbstract:As a Security Researcher, you have the option to investigate a wide range of potential Security issues. While few have the skills to be able to do this as a full-time profession, there are many who do so after hours, or as a part of their full-time job. By doing Security research, you advance the Security community as a whole, while improving your skills in your area of choice.
