USB Mass Storage Devices

Amazing!

What about human fingernail?

Too Cool!

Privacy software for USB Devices

• •

PI Protector Mobility Suite http://www.imaginelan.com/winboot/ Internet Explorer, Outlook and File Sync – all files stored on USB drive Migo USB Devices http://www.4migo.com

U3 USB

• •

Allows any application to run on a USB device.

USB devices now “parasites” on host computers

USB SyncBox

Can transfer data between USB devices without a computer.

Preventing USB Data Transfers

• • • •

Fill USB Ports with Epoxy Modify BIOS Create Group Policy Object removing permissions to usbstor.dll for all except System and possibly Admins. Still allows use of non-storage related USB devices Modify registry to make USB devices read only (see next slide)

Thanks to Mark Minasi

• • •

“It's a simple Registry change. First, create a whole new key: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control \ StorageDevicePolicies. Then create a REG_DWORD entry in it called WriteProtect. Set it to 1 and you'll be able to read from USB drives but not write to them.” XP – SP2 www.minasi.com

USB Hacksaw

“The

USB Hacksaw

is an evolution of the popular

USB Switchblade

that uses a modified version of

USBDumper

,

Blat

,

Stunnel

, and

Gmail

to automatically infect Windows PCs with a payload that will retrieve documents from USB drives plugged into the target machine and securely transmit them to an email account.” From http://www.hak5.org/wiki/USB_Hacksaw

3 Accused In Theft Of Coke Secrets Information Offered To Pepsi, FBI Says

“A company surveillance camera caught Coca-Cola employee Joya Williams at her desk looking through files and "stuffing documents into bags," Nahmias and FBI officials said. Then in June, an undercover FBI agent met at the Atlanta airport with another of the defendants, handing him $30,000 in a yellow Girl Scout Cookie box in exchange for an Armani bag containing confidential Coca-Cola documents and a sample of a product the company was developing, officials said.”

Regaining Control

End User and Enterprise Tools

Old Ways

• • • • • •

File Rights Management Essentially controlling who has access to which documents Helpful if properly implemented Still not implemented properly Easier to allow everyone access to everything Still Exists!

Document Life Cycle Management – End User Tools

• •

Tools like Net-It Now and Adobe Acrobat provide the ability to add some control These tools require users to determine what rights to apply

Net-It Now

“Net-It® Now is a free print driver that renders your files to CSF (content secure format), a compressed encrypted format that allows you to add Visual Rights™, including password protection, an expiration date, and feature restrictions, to your files (settings). Files are viewable with the free Brava! Reader (views TIFF, PDF and CSF files)”.

Example View file in Hex Editor

Adobe Acrobat

Document Lifecycle Management – Enterprise Tools

• • • •

Microsoft Office IRM – Information Rights Management Liquid Machines Authentica Adobe Life Cycle Policy Server

Microsoft IRM

• • •

Information Rights Management Available for Microsoft Office 2003 Requires the following

–

Microsoft Windows Rights Management Services for Windows Server 2003 (http://www.microsoft.com/rms)

– – – –

Active Directory IIS Database such as MS SQL Office 2003 Professional

Office IRM

Allow users with earlier versions of Office to read with browsers supporting Information Rights Management. (Increases file size)

Liquid Machines

“Liquid Machines Document Control™ uses its patented Policy Droplet™ control to provide an intuitive, consistent user interface across more than 65 applications and file formats, including Microsoft Office, Visio, Sharepoint® and Adobe Acrobat, to persistently control access to and usage of electronic information throughout its lifecycle.”

Authentica

• • •

Provides complete after-delivery protection and control; prevents sensitive documents from being forwarded Lets content owners define access privileges (copy/paste, print) and expire access to documents at any time Lets content owners insert a custom watermark into a document to deter authorized viewers from printing and distributing the document

From http://www.authentica.com/products/securedocs.aspx

Authentica

• •

Provides a detailed audit trail so that organizations can actively track document activity (what pages were viewed, by whom, when, from where, for how long, and whether they were printed) Leverages a company's existing authentication systems and LDAP user directories for creating document policies, thereby reducing administrator involvement

Investigating Theft of Documents Privacy vs. Investigations (Anti-forensics)

Privacy Concerns

• • •

Plastic Surgeon story “Deleted Files” being used in litigation Increased awareness of computer forensics capabilities

Agenda

• • •

Configuration settings – methods used to cover tracks using “supplied” tools and configuration settings Third party tools – wiping, properties changers, registry cleaners, steganography/encryption, etc.

Tools and methods designed specifically to fool computer forensics programs.

Simple

• • •

“Shift+Delete” to bypass Recycle Bin Recycle Bin – configured to delete immediately defrag

OS/Application Supplied

Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed.

OS/Application Supplied

Shutdown: Clear virtual memory pagefile Enabled XP- Control Panel | Administrative Tools | Local Security Policy | Local Policies | Security Options | Shutdown: Clear virtual memory Page File | Select Enabled

Clear Page File

Configured? Check following registry key: Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM Key: CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management Name: ClearPageFileAtShutdown Type: REG_DWORD Value: 1

Slows down shutdown process

Redaction tool

“Overview

Redaction is the careful editing of a document to remove confidential information.

The Microsoft Office Word 2003

Redaction Add-in

makes it easy for you to mark sections of a document for redaction. You can then redact the document so that the sections you specified are blacked out. You can either print the redacted document or use it electronically. In the redacted version of the document, the redacted text is replaced with a black bar and cannot be converted back to text or retrieved.”

Advantages of OS Supplied Tools

• •

Appear less “nefarious” than commercial tools (Evidence Eliminator).

Free

Third Party Tools

Fun for the Whole Family

Registry Cleaner

Merge Streams/Glue

• Hides Excel file within a Word Document (vice versa) • .doc – see Word file • .xls – see Excel file • Won’t fool forensics examiner – may confuse them • Word – “Recover Text from any file”

Wiping Tools

• • • • • • • • •

Gazillions of them Eraser (comes with DBAN) Sdelete – www.sysinternals.com

Evidence Eliminator BC Wipe Cyberscrub Etc.

Do they perform as promised? PGP does it really wipe slack space?

Are they used frequently?

Removing Residual Data

• Tools exist to remove residual data • But do not use them in response to litigation

•

• See - Kucala Enterprises, Ltd. v. Auto Wax Co., Inc., 2003 WL 21230605 (N.D.Ill.), May 27, 2003 - "Any reasonable person can deduce, if not from the name of the product itself, then by reading the website, that Evidence Eliminator is a product used to circumvent discovery.”

Good News/Bad News

• • • • •

First the Bad News Using a combination of these tools on a regular basis can defeat a computer forensics examination Now the Good News Very few users know about “all” of these tools and methods Not all tools perform as promised

Last thoughts

• • •

Determining whether these tools have been used can be just as important as finding evidence.

Finding these tools can counter the “I’m not sophisticated enough” argument.

Found in illegal movie and music distribution cases.
