Flow-based detection of RDP brute-force attacks
The Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a proprietary protocol developed by Microsoft, which provides a remote access to a computer over a network connection. Recently, we have seen an increase in attacks on Microsoft Windows remote desktop connection authentication. Current detection methods are based on event log analysis or the Account Lockout Policy used in Windows domain networks. However, th...
متن کاملRansomware attacks: detection, prevention and cure
The notion of ransomware has actually been around for quite some time. In 1989, Dr Joseph Popp distributed a trojan called PC Cyborg in which malware would hide all folders and encrypt files on the PC’s C: drive. A script delivered a ransom message demanding that $189 be directed to the PC Cyborg Corporation. The afflicted PC wouldn’t function until the ransom was paid and the malware’s actions...
متن کاملUsing ILP to Analyse Ransomware Attacks
This paper describes a preliminary study aimed at using the ILP system ALEPH to interactively assist human experts in learning rules to better understand the behaviour of cyberattacks. We develop an ILP formalism for representing network log data obtained from a sandbox computer that was deliberately infected with the CryptoWall-4 malware (a state-of-the-art ransomware attack known to be causin...
متن کاملTechniques and Solutions for Addressing Ransomware Attacks
Ransomware is a form of extortion-based attack that locks the victim’s digital resources and requests money to release them. Although the concept of ransomware is not new (i.e., such attacks date back at least as far as the 1980s), this type of malware has recently experienced a resurgence in popularity. In fact, over the last few years, a number of high-profile ransomware attacks were reported...
متن کاملTraceback of Ddos Attacks Using Entropy Variations
Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are a critical threat to the Internet which deny normal service and degrade quality of service. However, the Network security mechanisms does not have effective and efficient methods to trace back the source of these attacks. In this paper, I propose a novel traceback method for DDoS attacks that is based on entropy variations between normal and DDoS...
