If it detects this traffic then it triggers an alert with the message "HEARTBEAT". This rule listens for ICMP (Ping) traffic coming from host 192.168.1.4 and going to host 192.168.1.1 (on any port). An example rule is shown below: alert icmp 192.168.1.4 any -> 192.168.1.1 any (msg: "HEARTBEAT" ) These rules consist of a set of conditions if the packet matches these conditions then an alert is raised. Snort works by listening to all of the network traffic on its 'monitor' port, and checking to see if it triggers any of the rules that it has in its database. This allows security operations staff to investigate suspected malware infections, as well as employee misbehaviour, and often provides the trigger that starts a 'hunt' for malware within a network. ![]() An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) analyses network traffic to identify suspicious or malicious traffic. Snort ( ) is a free open-source IDS, designed to be deployed in networks of all shapes and sizes, from small home networks all the way up to large enterprises. ![]() Today we'll be creating a set of network signatures for the popular open source Intrusion Detection System (IDS) Snort, and using these to determine if there are any Galileo RCS agents in our network. This post carries on from our previous post on detecting Hacking Team's 'Galileo Remote Control System' using a memory image of a compromised host.
