Information Security Forensic
Project Area of Specialization Cyber SecurityProject SummaryNetwork forensics is the capture, recording and analysis of network packets to determine the source of security attacks on the network. The main purpose of the forensics network is to gather evidence. It attempts to analyze network traffic data, which is gathered from different sites and network equipment such as firewalls and IDS.It also detects threats on the network, and analyzes the existence of the attackers. Network forensics is also the process of detecting patterns of intrusion and concentrate on the behavior of the attacker.
Project ObjectivesNetwork security measures help to protect the IT infrastructure you are tracking.
Apparently new security threats emerge almost. Such threats are revolutionary in nature and involve complex multi-point security solutions.
Protecting against unauthorized access, risks and potential security threats, and improving network performance. Protecting the network at all its entry points is crucial, the most important factors of network security are encryption, secure keys, the use of antivirus software and current advanced network safety devices.
The network is used to proactively track irregular activity or an imminent threat. On the other side, it is used to gather evidence by analyzing data regarding network traffic to identify the source of an attack.
Project Implementation Method A generic Network forensic examination includes the following steps:- Identification:Recognition and resolution of a network indicator dependent event. Each move is important because it has an effect in the measures below.
- Preservation:Securing and isolating the tangible and empirical facts against changes, such as protection against electromagnetic disruption or intrusion.
- Collection:Recording the actual incident using uniform processes and protocols without duplicating digital evidence.
- Examination:Systematic and in-depth analysis of evidence relating to a network threat. This focuses on identifying and discovering potential evidence, and developing detailed analytical documentation.
- Analysis:Identify significance, reconstruct network traffic data packets and draw conclusions based on the found evidence.
- Presentation.Summarize the conclusions drawn and provide an interpretation.
- Incident Response: The reaction to the observed assault or violation is undertaken based on the information gathered to verify and determine the accident.Study of the network forensics, like any other forensic study, faces other obstacles. The first challenge is that of sniffing traffic data. The device may not catch anything, depending on the network setup and security measures where the sniffer is deployed.Data regarding expected flow. To address this problem, the network administrator should use a span port on network devices in multiple network locations.
- Network traffic capture and analysis
- Network performance assessment
- Anomalies detection and misuse of resources
- Determination of network protocols in use Aggregating data from multiple sources
- Security investigations and incident response Intellectual property protection
- Dentifying a hazard or an attempt to health.
- The proof is compiled and stored.
- Examining the evidence that was obtained.
- Analysis of data gathered and conclusions drawn from that data.
- Presenting the conclusions which were made.
- To start a cleaning in response to the incident.
