1 IDIC – SANS GIAC LevelTwo ©2000, 2001 1 Network Based Intrusion Detection Tutorial 1 Introduction to the basic approaches and issues of Intrusion Detection Hello! Welcome to the first half of our network based intrusion detection tutorial, where we will introduce you to the basic approaches of intrusion detection. In this section, we will discuss a rule- based analysis process by going through the topics listed on your next slide. At the end of the section we will talk about some of the methods currently used to perform intrusion detection. 2 IDIC - SANS GIAC LevelTwo ©2000, 2001 2 • False positives, False negatives • EOI, dictionary signatures, profile changes • Severity = (criticality + lethality) – countermeasures (system + network) • Long term conditions Before We Begin We will begin our discussion by talking about false positives and false negatives, which are ever present factors in the life of an intrusion analyst. We will then discuss the notion of Events of Interest (EOI), and their relevance to the event analysis process. We will also go over techniques for judging the severity of a particular event. Additionally, we will propose a way to handle long term conditions that might result from a prolonged exposure to attacks. 3 IDIC - SANS GIAC LevelTwo ©2000, 2001 3 Sources of Data All data: observable or not Collectable Events of Interest There are very few situations in which we are able to collect all the data. We need to develop techniques that allow us to routinely locate Events of Interest (EOI) in the data we are able to collect, so that we know where to focus our attention. 4 IDIC - SANS GIAC LevelTwo ©2000, 2001 4 False Positives and Negatives False positives False negatives All Data Real EOI False positives are “false alarms.” The detects match only some of the criteria for indicators of possible intrusion. False positives tend to wear down incident handling resources and make us slower to react in the future. False negatives are the actual intrusions and intrusion attempts that we do not detect. These can allow an adversary to establish a significant presence in our information systems before we begin to react. 5 IDIC - SANS GIAC LevelTwo ©2000, 2001 5 What Are Events Of Interest • Since we can’t collect, store, or analyze all possible events, we focus our collection efforts on stuff that might prove useful, EOI. – Dictionary: known attack signatures, known attackers – Short term significant changes in system or user profile The reality of limited computing and personnel resources is such that we cannot collect, store, and analyze all possible events. Therefore, analysts tend to focus their collection efforts on events that might prove useful – Events of Interest (EOI). Unfortunately, focusing helps reduce the false alarms or false positives, but increases the chance of missing an EOI. One of the ways to help ensure that an EOI is not missed is to compare suspicious events against a dictionary of known attacks or attackers. You can’t afford not to test against a dictionary! Another way to widen our field of vision is to monitor for changes in system or user profiles. Consider the following example: You have noticed an increase in the number of probes and intrusion attempts at your site. DNS and mail relay systems are always high profile targets, so you are Introduction to the International Trade and Capital Flows Introduction to the International Trade and Capital Flows By: OpenStaxCollege A World of Money We are all part of the global financial system, which includes many different currencies (Credit: modification of work by epSos.de/Flickr Creative Commons) More than Meets the Eye in the Congo 1/3 Introduction to the International Trade and Capital Flows How much you interact with the global financial system? Do you think not much? Think again Suppose you take out a student loan, or you deposit money into your bank account You just affected domestic savings and borrowing Now say you are at the mall and buy two T-shirts “made in China,” and later contribute to a charity that helps refugees What is the impact? You affected how much money flows into and out of the United States If you open an IRA savings account and put money in an international mutual fund, you are involved in the flow of money overseas While your involvement may not seem as influential as someone like the president, who can increase or decrease foreign aid and, thereby, have a huge impact on money flows in and out of the country, you interact with the global financial system on a daily basis The balance of payments—a term you will meet soon—seems like a huge topic, but once you learn the specific components of trade and money, it all makes sense Along the way, you may have to give up some common misunderstandings about trade and answer some questions: If a country is running a trade deficit, is that bad? Is a trade surplus good? For example, look at the Democratic Republic of Congo (often referred to as “Congo”), a large country in Central Africa In 2012, it ran a trade surplus of $688 million, so it must be doing well, right? In contrast, the trade deficit in the United States was $540 billion in 2012 Do these figures suggest that the economy in the United States is doing worse than the Congolese economy? Not necessarily The U.S trade deficit tends to worsen as the economy strengthens In contrast, high poverty rates in the Congo persist, and these rates are not going down even with the positive trade balance Clearly, it is more complicated than simply asserting that running a trade deficit is bad for the economy You will learn more about these issues and others in this chapter Introduction to International Trade and Capital Flows In this chapter, you will learn about: • • • • • • Measuring Trade Balances Trade Balances in Historical and International Context Trade Balances and Flows of Financial Capital The National Saving and Investment Identity The Pros and Cons of Trade Deficits and Surpluses The Difference between Level of Trade and the Trade Balance The balance of trade is any gap between a nation’s dollar value of its exports, or what its producers sell abroad, and a nation’s dollar worth of imports, or the foreignmade products and services that households and businesses purchase Recall from The Macroeconomic Perspective that if exports exceed imports, the economy is said to have a trade surplus If imports exceed exports, the economy is said to have a trade deficit If exports and imports are equal, then trade is balanced But what happens when trade is out of balance and large trade surpluses or deficits exist? 2/3 Introduction to the International Trade and Capital Flows Germany, for example, has had substantial trade surpluses in recent decades, in which exports have greatly exceeded imports According to the Central Intelligence Agency’s The World Factbook, in 2012, Germany ran a trade surplus of $240 billion In contrast, the U.S economy in recent decades has experienced large trade deficits, in which imports have considerably exceeded exports In 2012, for example, U.S imports exceeded exports by $540 billion A series of financial crises triggered by unbalanced trade can lead economies into deep recessions These crises begin with large trade deficits At some point, foreign investors become pessimistic about the economy and move their money to other countries The economy then drops into deep recession, with real GDP often falling up to 10% or more in a single year This happened to Mexico in 1995 when their GDP fell 8.1% A number of countries in East Asia—Thailand, South Korea, Malaysia, and Indonesia—came down with the same economic illness in 1997–1998 (called the Asian Financial Crisis) In the late 1990s and into the early 2000s, Russia and Argentina had the identical experience What are the connections between imbalances of trade in goods and services and the flows of international financial capital that set off these economic avalanches? We will start by examining the balance of trade in more detail, by looking at some patterns of trade balances in the United States and around the world Then we will examine the intimate connection between international flows of goods and services and international flows of financial capital, which to economists are really just two sides of the ... A CAPITAL IDEA! The Uses and Rules of Capital Letters . . . a guide to the proper care and feeding of capital letters A CAPITAL IDEA!
