  • Oracle Virtualbox Installation, Setup, and Ubuntu Introduction
    ORACLE VIRTUALBOX INSTALLATION, SETUP, AND UBUNTU INTRODUCTION • VirtualBox is a hardware virtualization program. • Create virtual computers aka virtual machines. • Prototyping, sandboxing, testing. • The computer that VirtualBox is installed on is called the “host”, and each virtual machine is called a “guest”. PREREQUISITES Since virtual machines share resources with the host computer, we need to know what resources we have available on our host. • Click “Type here to search”. • Search for “System Information”. • Note the number of processor cores and the amount of RAM installed in your host. PREREQUISITES • Expand “Components”. • Expand “Storage”. • Select “Drives”. • Note the amount of free space available on your host. Every computer is different, so how we will need to balance these resources between our host and guest systems will differ. DOWNLOADING VIRTUALBOX • VISIT VIRTUALBOX.ORG • SELECT THE CORRECT PACKAGE • CLICK THE DOWNLOAD LINK. FOR YOUR HOST. INSTALLING VIRTUALBOX • Browse to where you downloaded VirtualBox and run the installer. • All default options will be fine. Simply follow the prompts. INSTALLING VIRTUALBOX • CLICK “FINISH”. • VIRTUALBOX INSTALLED! SETTING THINGS UP Before we build our first virtual machine, we need to download an operating system to install as our “guest”. • Visit Ubuntu.com • Click “Download”. • Select the current Ubuntu Desktop “LTS” release. • LTS releases focus on stability rather than cutting edge features. SETTING THINGS UP • IN VIRTUALBOX, CLICK “NEW”. • NAME THE VIRTUAL MACHINE. SETTING THINGS UP Here’s where we will need the system resources information that we looked up earlier. Each virtual machine functions like a separate computer in and of itself and will need to share RAM with the host.

  • Promiscuous Mode Detection Platform
    Promiscuous Mode Detection Platform Zouheir Trabelsi and Hamza Rahmani College of Telecommunications The University of Tunisia Cité Technologique des Communications Route de Raoued Km 3,5 – 2083 El Ghazala, Ariana, Tunisia Abstract. Among various types of attacks on an Ethernet network, “sniffing attack” is probably one of the most difficult attacks to handle. Sniffers are programs that allow a host to capture any packets in an Ethernet network, by putting the host’s Network Interface Card (NIC) into the promiscuous mode. When a host’s NIC is in the normal mode, it captures only the packets sent to the host. Since many basic services, such as FTP, Telnet and SMTP, send passwords and data in clear text in the packets, sniffers can be used by hackers to capture passwords and confidential data. A number of anti-sniffers have been developed, such as PMD [18], PromiScan [17] and L0pht AntiSniff [19]. An anti-sniffer is a program that tries to detect the hosts running sniffers, in a Local Area Network (LAN). Current anti-sniffers are mainly based on three detection techniques, namely: the ARP detection, the DNS detection, and the RTT (Round Trip Time) detection techniques [13 and 16]. However, sniffers are becoming very advanced so that anti-sniffers are unable to detect them. The main drawback of these detection techniques is that they rely on the ARP, ICMP and/or DNS reply messages generated by the sniffing hosts. Therefore, in order to stay undetectable by anti-sniffers, advanced sniffers do not generate such reply messages while sniffing. This paper discusses an anti-sniffer based on a new detection technique.
