Guide to Network
Defense and Countermeasures Third Edition Chapter 8 Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems
2.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 2 Goals of an IDPS • Network intrusion – Attempt to gain unauthorized access to network resources • Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (IDPS) – Consists of more than one application or hardware device – Incorporates more than just detection • Intrusion detection and prevention – Involves prevention, detection, and response
3.
Guide to Network
Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 3 Figure 8-1 The role of intrusion detection and prevention in network defense
4.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Goals of an IDPS • An IDPS should be able to: – Assess large volumes of network traffic or system activity to find signs of unauthorized access – Record its findings in a log so that administrators can examine past activity – Detect and record unauthorized access without compromise to produce evidence admissible in court – Respond almost immediately – Make itself and systems it protects as inaccessible as possible to attackers Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 4
5.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Anomaly and Signature Detection Systems • Anomaly detection system: makes use of profiles that describe services and resources each authorized user normally accesses – Network baselines are associated with profiles – System can monitor profiles for suspicious activity that does not fit the profiles • IDPS can create baselines by monitoring network traffic to observe what is considered normal behavior Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 5
6.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Anomaly and Signature Detection Systems • If profiles are incomplete or inaccurate: – IDPS sends alarms that false positives (legitimate traffic rather than actual attacks) – False negatives (genuine attacks that an IDPS does not detect) could occur • True negatives: legitimate communications that do not set off an alarm • True positive: used to describe a genuine attack that an IDPS detects successfully Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 6
7.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Anomaly and Signature Detection Systems • Signature detection: triggers alarms based on characteristic signatures of known external attacks • Signature-based IDPS best for companies that want a basic IDPS and mostly concerned with known attacks – Network engineers research well-known attacks and record rules associated with each signature – Signatures should be updated regularly Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 7

2014 Stateful Protocol Analysis • Stateful protocol analysis: information gathering about a connection – When an IDPS receives a packet, connection information between the host and remote computer is compared to entries in a state table – State table: maintains a record of connections between computers • Includes: source and destination IP address and port, and protocol • Event horizon: entire length of the attack – IDPS needs to maintain state information during this Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 10
11.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Stateful Protocol Analysis • Stateful protocol analysis approaches: – Traffic rate monitoring – If IDPS detects sudden increase in traffic it can stop and reset all TCP traffic – Protocol state tracking – IDPS maintains a record of connection’s state and allows packets to pass through if it is an established connection – Dynamic Application layer protocol analysis – Can identify applications not using standard ports – IP packet reassembly – Can reassemble fragmented packets to prevent fragments from passing through to the internal network Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 11
12.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 12 Examining IDPS Components • Components – Network sensors or host-based agents – Detection and prevention capabilities – Command console – Database server that stores attack signatures or behaviors
13.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 13 Sensors and Agents • Sensor or agent – Functions as electronic “eyes” of an IDPS – Host-based IDPS – IDPS installed on a single host computer has its agent built into the IDPS software – Network-based IDPS – sensor is hardware or software that monitors network traffic in real time – Attacks detected by an IDPS sensor • Single-session attacks – isolated attempt • Multiple-session attacks – take place over a period of time
14.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 14 Sensors and Agents • Sensors should be placed at common-entry points – Internet gateways – Connections between one network and another – Remote access server that receives dial-up connections from remote users – Virtual private network (VPN) devices • Sensors could be positioned at either side of the firewall – Behind the firewall is a more secure location • IDPS management server: central repository for sensor and agent data

17.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 17 Detection and Prevention Capabilities • When selecting an IDPS, consider the following: – Threshold – Values that set the limit between normal and abnormal behavior – Blacklists – lists of entities that have been associated with malicious activity – Whitelists – lists of entities known to be harmless – Alert settings – specifying default priorities or severity levels, determining which prevention capabilities should be used for certain events, and specifying what information should be logged
18.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 18 Detection and Prevention Capabilities • Prevention Capabilities – IDPS can be configured to take preventative countermeasures • Example: resetting all network connections when an intrusion is detected – Some IDPSs allow administrators to specify which measure should be taken for each alert type – Some have a simulation mode in which all prevention capabilities are disabled but generate reports used to fine-tune prevention capabilities
19.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 19 Command Console • Provides a graphical front-end interface to an IDPS – Enables administrators to receive and analyze alert messages and manage log files • IDPS can collect information from security devices throughout a network • Command console should run on a computer dedicated solely to the IDPS – To maximize the speed of response
20.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 20 Database of Attack Signatures or Behaviors • IDPSs do not have the capability to use judgment – Can make use of a source of information for comparing the traffic they monitor • Signature-detection IDPS – Reference a database of known attack signatures – If traffic matches a signature, it sends an alert • Keep database updated • Anomaly-based IDPS – Store information about users in a database

2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 23 Network-Based IDPSs • Network-based IDPS (NIDPS) • Monitors network traffic by using well-positioned sensors, management servers, a command console, and a signature database • Can be hardware devices equipped with NICs for capturing and analyzing packets • Can also be software-based sensors installed on a dedicated computer – Positioning an NIDPS on the Network • Behind the firewall and before the LAN • Between the firewall and the DMZ • Any network segment
24.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 24 Network-Based IDPSs • An NIDPS can use: – Inline sensors – positioned so that network traffic must pass through it • Used to stop attacks from blocking network traffic • Usually placed where firewalls are positioned – Passive sensors – monitor copies of traffic; no actual traffic passes through them • Can monitor traffic by: – Spanning port – Network tap – IDPS load balancer

© Cengage Learning
2014 Network-Based IDPSs • NIDPS Capabilities – Vary depending on product – Some can: • Collect information about hosts, OSs, applications, and network activities and characteristics – Used to help identify vulnerable hosts • Analyze packet headers to identify unusual behavior – Most have traffic logs to help identify and analyze potential attacks, locate vulnerabilities, and assess network use and performance Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 27
28.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Network-Based IDPSs • NIDPS prevention capabilities vary based on sensor types: – Passive only – Ends the current TCP session – Inline only – Uses inline firewalling and bandwidth throttling, and alters malicious content – Passive and inline – Reconfigures other network security devices • Administrators can configure specific actions for each type of alert Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 28
29.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Network-Based IDPSs • NIDPS Management – Designing architecture includes: • Determining where sensors are located • How many are needed and how they should be connected – Testing NIDPS components includes: • Accounting for network downtime while deploying sensors – Securing components involves: • Making sure sensors do not have IP addresses • Hardening management networks and configuring hosts for log files and backups Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 29
30.
© Cengage Learning
2014 Guide to Network Defense and Countermeasures, 3rd Edition 30 Host-Based IDPSs • Host-based IDPS (HIDPS) – Deployed on hosts in the network perimeter – Commonly use management servers, signature databases, and console – Evaluates traffic generated by the host • Often used to protect a Web server or database server – Gathers system variables such as • System processes, CPU use, file accesses, system logs, and system and application configuration changes – Does not sniff packets as they enter the LAN • Monitors log file entries and user activity
