Snort is an open source network intrusion prevention and detection system (IDS/IPS) developed by Sourcefire. Combining the benefits of signature, protocol and anomaly-based inspection, Snort is the most widely deployed IDS/IPS technology worldwide. With millions of downloads and approximately 300,000 registered users. Snort identifies network indicators by inspecting network packets in transmission. A process on a host's machine usually generates these network indicators. This means whatever the snort signature matches the packet, that same signature must be in memory for some period (possibly micro seconds) of time. Finally, investigate some security issues that you should consider when running a Snort system. Paper coverage includes: How an IDS Works, Where Snort fits, Snort system requirements, Exploring Snort's features, Using Snort on your network, Snort and your network architecture, security considerations with snort under digital forensic windows environment.

Recently, network forensic research which analyzes intrusion-related information for tracing of attackers, has been becoming more popular than disk forensic which analyzes remaining evidences in a system. Analysis and correlation of logs from firewall, IDS(Intrusion Detect System) and web server are important part in network forensic procedures. This work suggests integrated graphical user interface of network forensic for private information leakage detection. This paper shows the necessity of various log information for network forensic and a design of graphical user interface for security managers who need to monitor the leakage of private information.

As the situations that important evidences or clues are found in digital information devices increase, digital forensic technology is widely applied. In this paper, forensic based audit system is implemented by associating forensic analysis system with agent system which monitors and collects data for analysis in storage devices over distributed network nodes. Forensic audit system implemented in this paper can prevent, audit and trace the computer related crimes in IT infrastructure by real time monitoring and evidence seizure.

Social network services(SNS) has been used as a means of communication for user or express themselves user. Therefore, SNS has a variety of information. This information is useful to help the investigation can be used as evidence. In this paper, A study of mobile digital forensic procedure for crime investigation in social network service. Analysis of database file taken from the smartphone at social network service application for mobile digital forensic procedure. Therefore, we propose a procedure for the efficient investigation of social network service mobile digital forensic.

One of the most important point in the Internet crime investigation is tracing back and pointing out a criminal host. However, criminals can forge a crime record stored in the crime host, or can utilize malicious applications in order not to leave a crime record. In addition, criminals can change the source IP address of a crime host and deny their involvement. In this study, we suggests the Network Forensic Evidence Generation and Verification Scheme (NFEGVS) to rectify the current limitation of Network Forensic technologies. This scheme can prove who and when the crime has occurred. In addition, this prevents leaking of symmetric key for guaranteeing certification and integrity of Forensic Evidence by proposing the Timestamp Secret Key Distribution Scheme, and minimizes performance degradation of router when generating forensic evidence with the Flow-Based Selection Scheme. In this paper, we implement the proposed scheme and evaluate overall performance of the proposed system.

The Network-packet in this Paper to ensure the integrity of the legal evidence is effect that can have is to offer an Network-forensics system. The Paper proposed Network-forensics system in the company through legal disputes accident Networking and state agency (with investigative authority) for criminal investigations in networking for the effective and correct way to present a report of user-centric services through effective awareness can be improved.

Recently, the importance of digital forensic has been magnified because of the dramatic increase of cyber crimes and the increasing complexity of the investigation of target systems such as PCs, servers, and database systems. Moreover, some systems have to be investigated with live forensic techniques. However, even though live forensic techniques have been improved, they are still vulnerable to anti-forensic activities when the target systems are remotely accessible by criminals or their accomplices. To solve this problem, we first suggest a layer-based model and the anti-forensic scenarios which can actually be applicable to each layer. Our suggested model, the Anti-Forensic Activites layer-based model, has 5 layers - the physical layer, network layer, OS layer, database application layer and data layer. Each layer has possible anti-forensic scenarios with detailed commands. Second, we propose a fuzzy expert system for effectively detecting anti-forensic activities. Some anti-forensic activities are hardly distinguished from normal activities. So, we use fuzzy logic for handling ambiguous data. We make rule sets with extracted commands and their arguments from pre-defined scenarios and the fuzzy expert system learns the rule sets. With this system, we can detect anti-forensic activities in real time when performing live forensic.

Along with the evolution of Internet and its new emerging services, the quantity and impact of attacks have been continuously increasing. Currently, the technical capability to attack has tended to decrease. On the contrary, performances of hacking tools are evolving, growing, simple, comprehensive, and accessible to the public. In this work, network penetration testing and auditing of the Redhat operating system (OS) are highlighted as one of the most popular OS for Internet applications. Some types of attacks are from a different side and new attack method have been attempted, such as: scanning for reconnaissance, guessing the password, gaining privileged access, and flooding the victim machine to decrease availability. Some analyses in network auditing and forensic from victim server are also presented in this paper. Our proposed system aims confirmed as hackable or not and we expect for it to be used as a reference for practitioners to protect their systems from cyber-attacks.

In network service environment, cultures from diversified fields are easily accessible thanks to the convenient digital content services. Unfortunately, unauthorized access and indiscreet misuse behaviors have deprived content owners of their copyrights. This study suggests an integrity-ensured model applicable for forensic evidence of digital content infringement in network service environment. The suggested model is based on MPEG-21 core components for digital content protection and the system is designed in connection with the components of digital content forensics. Also, the present study suggests an efficient technology to protect and manage computer forensic evidence and digital content by authorizing digital content use and catching infringing logs of authorized users without lag in network environment for the benefit of network security and reliability.

Recently, IM(Instant Messenger) of KakaoTalk is being used on smart devices such as smartphones. Because IM service can carry user and/or suspector's various information including life style, geographical position, psychology and crime history, forensic analysis on IM service is desirable. But, forensic analysis for KakaoTalk is not well studied yet. This paper studies a proper forensic method for KakaoTalks, finds artifacts location, reconstruct the list of contacts and the chronology of the messages that have been exchanged by users. Proposed methodology and analyzed information can provide a basic platform for forensic tool.
