C. Describe the anomalies you found when running Wireshark on the network capture file and include evidence of the range of packets associated with each anomaly. D. Summarize the potential implications of not addressing each of the anomalies found when running Wireshark. E. Recommend solutions for eliminating or minimizing all identified vulnerabilities or anomalies from Wireshark and Nmap. Use current industry-respected reliable research and sources to support your recommendations.

Security personnel generally have two goals when using a honeypot. A honeypot can deflect or redirect threat actors' attention away from legitimate servers by encouraging them to spend their time and energy on the decoy server, distracting their attention from the data on the actual server. A honeypot can also trick threat actors into revealing their attack techniques. Once these techniques are discovered, it can then be determined if actual production systems could thwart such an attack. However, honeypots can introduce risk. A honeypot, once attacked and compromised, could be used as a launching pad to attack and infiltrate other systems, either those of the organization itself or another organization. Although honeypots should be designed to "capture" the threat actor, a misconfiguration could inadvertently give an attacker an actual platform to attack other systems. If a threat actor were able to do this, would the organization that set up the honeypot then be liable? How would you define "without authorization"? The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) imposes both criminal and civil liability on someone who intentionally accesses a computer "without authorization" or "exceeds authorized access" to obtain information from the computer. Some businesses argue that "without authorization" also applies to security researchers who are probing programs or apps for vulnerabilities. Often these businesses do not want security researchers looking into their security (or lack of it). One such company filed a brief in a court case stating that "necessary research and testing can be performed by authorized parties... and shows how unauthorized research and public dissemination of unvalidated or theoretical security vulnerabilities can actually cause harmful effects." Should "without authorization" be used to prohibit security researchers who want to pinpoint vulnerabilities? Or can it still allow for security researchers to find unknown vulnerabilities in software—even if they have not been asked to?

Some of the activities in this lab were flagged as being considered potentially hostile unless you have permission to do them. Why would a company want to keep network users from using these type of tools?

Transcript

00:03 Here, when using wireshark, look for anomalies such as unusual traffic patterns, then protocol violations, then unauthorized access attempts, then potential implication of not addressing anomalies.

00:49 Here, we can say that first one is security breaches, then service disruptions, exfiltration.

01:15 Now, recommendations for eliminating or minimizing anomalies, regular network audits, security information event management, intrusion detection prevention systems, regular software updates...
