    Implementation of Centralized Logging and Log Analysis in Cloud Transition Antti Vainio School of Science Thesis submitted for examination for the degree of Master of Science in Technology. Espoo 3.7.2018 Supervisor Prof. Jukka Suomela Advisor MSc Cyril de Vaumas Copyright ⃝c 2018 Antti Vainio Aalto University, P.O. BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of the master’s thesis Author Antti Vainio Title Implementation of Centralized Logging and Log Analysis in Cloud Transition Degree programme Computer, Communication and Information Sciences Major Computer Science Code of major SCI3042 Supervisor Prof. Jukka Suomela Advisor MSc Cyril de Vaumas Date 3.7.2018 Number of pages 84 Language English Abstract Centralized logging can be used to collect log data from multiple log files on multiple separate server machines and transmit the data to a single centralized location. Log analysis on top of that can automatically process large amounts of logs for various different purposes including problem detection, troubleshooting, monitoring system performance, identifying security incidents, and understanding user behavior. As the volume of log data is growing when software systems, networks, and services grow in size, the log data located on multiple separate server machines can be difficult to manage. The traditional way of manually inspecting logs hasalso become too labor-intensive and error-prone when large amounts of log data need to be analyzed. Setting up centralized logging and automatic log analysis systems can be used to solve this problem. This thesis explains the concepts of log data, centralized logging, and log analysis, and also takes a look at existing software solutions to implement such a system.

  • Netsh Commands William John Holden 2014­04­11 (Version 2) Interface Configuration Configure an Ipv4 Address with Subnet Mask and Default Gateway
    Netsh Commands William John Holden 2014­04­11 (version 2) Interface Configuration Configure an IPv4 address with subnet mask and default gateway. Omitted netmask implies classful addressing. netsh int ipv4 set address "Local Area Connection" static 192.168.1.3 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1 Remove an IPv4 address and default gateway from an interface. netsh int ipv4 del address "Local Area Connection" 192.168.1.3 192.168.1.1 You can add more than one IP address to an interface. Additional addresses don't show up in ipconfig without /all. netsh int ipv4 add address "Local Area Connection" 192.168.1.4 Add a global unicast IP with prefix. Prefix is optional and defaults to /64. netsh int ipv6 set address "Local Area Connection" 2001:beef::1/64 Add a link­local IP to an interface. See the similarity to above? netsh int ipv6 add address "Local Area Connection" fe80::6 Delete the IP. Remove a link­local IP the same way. netsh int ipv6 del address "Local Area Connection" 2001:beef::1 Set an IPv6 default route. netsh int ipv6 add route ::/0 "Local Area Connection" fe80::3 Delete the default route. netsh int ipv6 delete route ::/0 "Local Area Connection" fe80::3 Reset Configuration Reset interface configuration completely (requires restart): netsh int ipv6 reset all netsh int ipv4 reset all shutdown ­r ­t 0 Verification (“show commands”) netsh has several commands that are very similar to ipconfig, route print (netstat ­r), netstat ­a, and getmac. Poke around netsh int ipv4 show ? and you’ll find lots of interesting stuff.

  • Threat Advisory: Eternalrocks
    McAfee Labs Threat Advisory EternalRocks June 6, 2017 McAfee Labs periodically publishes Threat Advisories to provide customers with a detailed analysis of prevalent A malware. This Threat Advisory contains behavioral information, characteristics, and symptoms that may be used to n mitigate or discover this threat, and suggestions for mitigation in addition to the coverage provided by the DATs. d To receive a notification when a Threat Advisory is published by McAfee Labs, select to receive “Malware and Threat Reports” at the following URL: https://www.mcafee.com/enterprise/en-us/sns/preferences/sns-form.html. Summary EternalRocks is a network worm which uses the SMB exploits ETERNAL BLUE, ETERNALCHAMPION, ETERNALROMANCE, and ETERNALSYNERGY along with related programs DOUBLEPULSAR, ARCHITOUCH, and SMBTOUCH to spread. McAfee products detect this threat under the following detection names: • Trojan-EtrnlRock • Trojan.EternalRocks • Trojan-Bluedoom • HackTool-Shadowbrokers • RDN/Generic.grp • RDN/Generic.dx • RDN/Trojan-EtrnlRock • RDN/Generic Downloader.x Detailed information about the threat, its propagation, characteristics, and mitigation are in the following sections: • Infection and Propagation Vectors • Mitigation • Characteristics and Symptoms • Restart Mechanism • Remediation • McAfee Foundstone Services Infection and Propagation Vectors Even though this has not been confirmed, the malware’s initial vector is expected to be spam email. The malware spreads by exploiting shares and uses the EternalBlue (MS17-010 Echo Response - SMB vulnerability) vulnerability. The authors have used publicly available exploit code and embedded it as a part of their dropper. On execution, the malware connects to the IPC$ tree and attempts a transaction on FID 0, triggers the vulnerability, and then exploits it.

  • Command-Line IP Utilities This Document Lists Windows Command-Line Utilities That You Can Use to Obtain TCP/IP Configuration Information and Test IP Connectivity
    Guide to TCP/IP: IPv6 and IPv4, 5th Edition, ISBN 978-13059-4695-8 Command-Line IP Utilities This document lists Windows command-line utilities that you can use to obtain TCP/IP configuration information and test IP connectivity. Command parameters and uses are listed for the following utilities in Tables 1 through 9: ■ Arp ■ Ipconfig ■ Netsh ■ Netstat ■ Pathping ■ Ping ■ Route ■ Tracert ARP The Arp utility reads and manipulates local ARP tables (data link address-to-IP address tables). Syntax arp -s inet_addr eth_addr [if_addr] arp -d inet_addr [if_addr] arp -a [inet_address] [-N if_addr] [-v] Table 1 ARP command parameters and uses Parameter Description -a or -g Displays current entries in the ARP cache. If inet_addr is specified, the IP and data link address of the specified computer appear. If more than one network interface uses ARP, entries for each ARP table appear. inet_addr Specifies an Internet address. -N if_addr Displays the ARP entries for the network interface specified by if_addr. -v Displays the ARP entries in verbose mode. -d Deletes the host specified by inet_addr. -s Adds the host and associates the Internet address inet_addr with the data link address eth_addr. The physical address is given as six hexadecimal bytes separated by hyphens. The entry is permanent. eth_addr Specifies physical address. if_addr If present, this specifies the Internet address of the interface whose address translation table should be modified. If not present, the first applicable interface will be used.
