This is achieved by poisoning the ARP cache on the victim machines. (For more information on ARP spoofing, see the resources [6] [7].)

  • De-Anonymizing Live Cds Through Physical Memory Analysis
    De-Anonymizing Live CDs through Physical Memory Analysis Andrew Case [email protected] Digital Forensics Solutions Abstract Traditional digital forensics encompasses the examination of data from an offline or “dead” source such as a disk image. Since the filesystem is intact on these images, a number of forensics techniques are available for analysis such as file and metadata examination, timelining, deleted file recovery, indexing, and searching. Live CDs present a serious problem for this investigative model, however, since the OS and applications execute in a RAM-only environment and do not save data on non-volatile storage devices such as the local disk. In order to solve this problem, we present a number of techniques that support complete recovery of a live CD’s in-memory filesystem and partial recovery of its deleted contents. We also present memory analysis of the popular Tor application, since it is used by a number of live CDs in an attempt to keep network communications encrypted and anonymous. 1 Introduction Traditional digital forensics encompasses the examination of data from an offline or “dead” source such as a disk image. Under normal circumstances, evidence is obtained by first creating an exact, bit-for-bit copy of the target disk, followed by hashing of both the target disk and the new copy. If these hashes match then it is known that an exact copy has been made, and the hash is recorded to later prove that evidence was not modified during the investigation. Besides satisfying legal requirements, obtaining a bit-for-bit copy of data provides investigators with a wealth of information to examine and makes available a number of forensics techniques.

This thesis covers the positioning of penetration testing within IT risk management frameworks and the relationship between IT risk management and penetration testing. We would like to express our thanks to Dr. René Matthijsse RE, our supervisor at the Vrije Universiteit, for his support and criticism. Additionally, we would like to express our thanks to Mr. Michiel van Veen MSc RE and ir. Peter Kornelisse for their support during the course of the project. We would not have come this far without them. Furthermore, we would like to thank the participants to our case study interviews for their time and availability to express their opinion and share their experience on this subject. Last but not least we would like to thank our families for their support and their patience with us during our study. Without them we definitely would not have made it. Jip Hogenboom Nick Peterman Amstelveen, September 2013 Jip Hogenboom MSc ii Nick Peterman MSc Thesis EDP Audit, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam September 2013 2 Abstract Risk management is an important step within each business process and project to minimise, monitor, and control the probability and/or impact of unfortunate events or to maximise the realisation of opportunities.
