Why Information Security is Important
> Oops, I gave my Visa to a Hacker! (the Heartland Breach
Exposed)
> In a recent USA TODAY interview, Heartland’s President and CFO,
Robert Baldwin Noted, in late 2008, hackers had access for “longer
than weeks”, no specific information was released.
> Visa & MasterCard Notified Heartland of suspicious transactions
stemming from their accounts, then investigators found a “Data-Stealing”
program.
> 3 weeks access, potentially 750 million credit card transactions exposed!

End-to-end encryption was not in place
Intrusion Detection, Intrusion Prevention systems were insufficient
Proactive Scanning for anomalies failed or was not present.
Cyber criminals Exploited Vulnerabilities in Heartland Systems compromising
the financial Data of millions of customers.
> Preventative security measures were insufficient despite best efforts and
compliance to standard industry regulations.

Why Information Security is Important
> Cyber War on our own soil? Is it Possible? (Bot-Nets)
> What is prompting these attacks?
> “Owned computers” by large become a part of various “BotNets” and
can be remotely controlled.
> Hackers gain access to combined computing resources through
distribution of passive Malware, Virus’, and Trojans.
> Compromised/unprotected Personal Computers, Library Networks,
School Networks, Govt. Networks, and Corporate Networks contribute
to the proliferation of BotNets.
Example Workings of a BotNet
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Stage 1, Stage 2:
The Bot Master sends malicious trojan/botnet client over the Internet and infects a victim
Stage 3:
The bot client connects to the Command Centre( Malicious Server)and informs the status of
being infected
Stage4:
Command Centre informs the Bot Master about the victim
Stage 5:
The attacker sends attack information to the command centre
Stage6,
The command centre triggers the victim with the set of instructions sent by the Bot Master to
search for other victim computers with similar vulnerabilities
Stage 7:
The compromised computer scans the Internet for other similar systems and infects them with
malicious code
Stage 8:
This way the attacker creates a huge network of bots that are ready to act based on the
instructions sent by the attacker.
The network of bots is referred to as botnet

According to the DOD’s National Strategy to Secure Cyber Space:
“Each American who depends on cyberspace, the
network of information networks, must secure the
part that they own or for which they are responsible.”

Gaining
Access
Phase 1 - Reconnaissance
Reconnaissance refers to the preparatory phase where an attacker seeks to
gather as much information as possible about a target of evaluation prior to
launching an attack
Generally noted as "rattling the door knobs" to see if someone is watching and
responding
Discovered information “filed” for future use when more is known about the
target as a whole
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
Reconnaissance Types
Passive reconnaissance involves acquiring
information without directly interacting with
the target
• For example, searching public records or news
releases
Active reconnaissance involves
interacting with the target directly by
any means
• For example, telephone calls to the help
desk or technical department

Gaining Access
It involves three phases: footprinting,
scanning and enumeration of the network
Footprinting is conducted externally, while
scanning and network enumeration take
place both externally AND internally
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
Defining Footprinting
Footprinting is the blueprint of the security
profile of an organization, undertaken in a
methodological manner
Footprinting is one of the three pre-attack
phases
An attacker spends 90% of the time in
profiling an organization and another 10%
in the attack
Footprinting results in a unique
organization profile with respect to
networks
(Internet/intranet/extranet/wireless) and
systems involved
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
Why is Footprinting
Necessary
Footprinting is necessary to systematically and methodically
ensure that all possible pieces of information related to the
technologies in use are identified
Footprinting is often the most difficult task conducted o
determine the security posture of an entity

Finding a Company’s
URL
Search for a company’s URL using a search engine such as Google
Type the company’s name in the search engine to get the company’s
URL
Google provides rich information to perform passive reconnaissance
Check newsgroups, forums, and blogs for sensitive information
regarding the network, the organization, and its employees

Extracting Archive 0f a
Website
You can get information on a company
website since its launch at
www.archive.org
• For example: www.eccouncil.org
You can see updates made to the
website
You can look for an employee database,
past products, press releases, contact
information, and more

Anonymity with Caches
Hackers may get a copy of sensitive data even if the admin pulls the plug on that pesky
Web server They can crawl the entire website without even sending a single packet to the
original server
If the web server does not get so much as a packet, it can not write any thing to log files

Footprinting Through Job
Sites
You can gather a company’s infrastructure details from job postings
Look for the company’s infrastructure postings such as “looking for
system administrator to manage Solaris 10 network”
This means that the company uses Solaris in their network
• E.g., www.jobsdb.com

Footprinting Through Industry
Sites
• Industry trade associations may provide
information about the target network as
well
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
Passive Information
Gathering
Passive information gathering is done by finding out the
freely available information over the Internet and by
various other techniques without coming in contact with the
organization’s servers
Organizational websites are an exception as the
information gathering activities carried out by an attacker
do not raise suspicion
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
Competitive Intelligence
Gathering
“Business moves fast. Product cycles are measured in months, not
years. Partners become rivals quicker than you can say ‘breach of
contract.’ So how can you possibly hope to keep up with your
competitors if you can't keep an eye on them?” –FastCompany.com
Competitive intelligence gathering is the process
of gathering information about your competitors
from resources such as the Internet
Non-interfering and subtle in nature
Both a product and a process

E-Mail Spiders
Have you ever wondered how Spammers generate a huge mailing database?
They pick up tons of e-mail addresses by searching in the Internet
All they need is a web spidering tool picking up e-mail addresses and storing
them to a database
If these tools run the entire night, they can capture hundreds of thousands of
e-mail addresses
Tools:
• Web data Extractor
• 1st E-mail Address Spider

What is Google Hacking
Google hacking is a term that refers to the art of creating
complex search engine queries in order to filter through large
amounts of search results for information related to computer
security
In its malicious format, it can be used to detect websites that
are vulnerable to numerous exploits and vulnerabilities as
well as locate private, sensitive information about others,
such as credit card numbers, social security numbers, and
passwords
Google Hacking involves using Google operators to locate
specific strings of text within search results
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
What a Hacker Can Find With
Google Hacking
Information that the Google Hacking Database identifies:
Advisories and server vulnerabilities
Error messages that contain too much information
Files containing passwords
Sensitive directories
Pages containing logon portals
Pages containing network or vulnerability data such as firewall
logs
Copyright © by EC-Council
All rights reserved. Reproduction is strictly prohibited.
