1. Network Security Amandeep Kaur Lecturer Computer Engg. GPC Khunimajra(Mohali)

2. What is computer Network A computer network, or simply a network, is a collection of computers and other hardware interconnected by communication channels that allow sharing of resources and information. Where at least one process in one device is able to send/receive data to/from at least one process residing in a remote device, then the two devices are said to be in a network

3. What is network security? Confidentiality: only sender, intended receiver should “understand” message contents  sender encrypts message  receiver decrypts message Authentication: sender, receiver want to confirm identity of each other Message Integrity: sender, receiver want to ensure message not altered (in transit, or afterwards) without detection Access and Availability: services must be accessible and available to users

4. Friends and enemies: Neel, Nikki, Trude  well-known in network security world  Neel, Nikki (lovers!) want to communicate “securely”  Trudy (intruder) may intercept, delete, add messages secure sender secure receiver channel data, control messages data Nikki Neel Trudy

5. Who might Neel, Nikki be?  … well, real-life Neel and Nikki!  Web browser/server for electronic transactions (e.g., on-line purchases)  on-line banking client/server  DNS servers  routers exchanging routing table updates  other examples?

6. There are bad guys (and girls) out there! Q: What can a “bad guy” do? A: a lot!  eavesdrop: intercept messages actively insert messages into connection  impersonation: can fake (spoof) source address in packet (or any field in packet)  hijacking: “take over” ongoing connection by removing sender or receiver, inserting himself in place  denial of service: prevent service from being used by others (e.g., by overloading resources)

7. Internet security threats Packet sniffing:  broadcast media  promiscuous NIC reads all packets passing by  can read all unencrypted data (e.g. passwords)  e.g.: C sniffs B’s packets A B C src:B dest:A payload Countermeasures?

8. Internet security threats Packet sniffing: countermeasures  all hosts in organization run software that checks periodically if host interface in promiscuous mode.  one host per segment of broadcast media (switched Ethernet at hub) A B C src:B dest:A payload

9. Internet security threats IP Spoofing:  can generate “raw” IP packets directly from application, putting any value into IP source address field  receiver can’t tell if source is spoofed  e.g.: C pretends to be B A B C src:B dest:A payload Countermeasures?

10. Internet security threats IP Spoofing: ingress filtering  routers should not forward outgoing packets with invalid source addresses (e.g., datagram source address not in router’s network)  great, but ingress filtering can not be mandated for all networks A B C src:B dest:A payload

11. Internet security threats Denial of service (DOS):  flood of maliciously generated packets “swamp” receiver  Distributed DOS (DDOS): multiple coordinated sources swamp receiver  e.g., C and remote host SYN-attack A A B C SYN Countermeasures?

12. Internet security threats Denial of service (DOS): countermeasures  filter out flooded packets (e.g., SYN) before reaching host: throw out good with bad  traceback to source of floods (most likely an innocent, compromised machine) A B C SYN

13. What is Cyber Crime Computer crime refers to any crime that involves a computer and a network. The computer may have been used in the commission of a crime, or it may be the target. Net crime refers to criminal exploitation of the Internet. Cybercrimes are defined as: "Offences that are committed against individuals or groups of individuals with a criminal motive to intentionally harm the reputation of the victim or cause physical or mental harm to the victim directly or indirectly, using modern telecommunication networks such as Internet (Chat rooms, emails, notice boards and groups) and mobile phones (SMS/MMS)"

14. TYPES OF CYBER CRIMES Cyber terrorism Cyber pornography Defamation Cyber stalking (section 509 IPC) Sale of illegal articles-narcotics, weapons, wildlife Online gambling Intellectual Property crimes- software piracy, copyright infringement, trademarks violations, theft of computer source code Email spoofing Forgery Phising Credit card frauds Crime against persons Crime against Government Crime against property

15. TYPES OF CYBER CRIMES Cyber crimes Hacking Information Theft E-mail bombing Salami attacks Web jacking Denial of Service attacks Trojan attacks

16. NEED FOR CYBER LAWS TRACKING CYBER CRIMES INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND COPYRIGHTS PROTECTION ACT

17. IT ACT PROVISIONS email would now be a valid and legal form of communication in our country that can be duly produced and approved in a court of law. Companies shall now be able to carry out electronic commerce using the legal infrastructure provided by the Act. Digital signatures have been given legal validity and sanction in the Act.

18. IT ACT PROVISIONS The Act now allows Government to issue notification on the web thus heralding e- governance statutory remedy in case if anyone breaks into companies computer systems or network and causes damages or copies data

19. INTERNET AND ITS EFFECT 20% - 30% of Internet pornography consumption is by children of ages 12 - 17. MySpace is being used by predators to meet and entice kids online. Specific marketing strategies are being used to attract children to porn sites.

20. OFFENCES AND LAWS IN CYBER SPACE TAMPERING WITH COMPUTER DOCUMENTS HACKING WITH COMPUTER SYSTEM PUBLISHING OBSCENE MATERIAL ON INTERNET BREACHING OF CONFIDENTIALITY AND PRIVACY

21. IT Act 2000 In order to keep pace with the changing generation the Indian Parliament passed Information Technology (IT) Act, 2000. The IT Act has been conceptualized on the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Model Law The Act aims at providing legal recognition for transactions carried out by means of electronic data interchange and other means of electronic communications commonly referred to as "electronic commerce" which involve the use of alternative to paper based methods of communication and storage of information and aims at facilitating electronic filing of documents with the government agencies.

22. Information Technology Act in a capsule Called the Information Technology Act, 2000. Came into force in June,2000 Extends to whole of India and also to people who contravene the provisions of the act outside India. Shall come into force as per notification by the Central govt. The Act applies to the whole of India. It also applies to any offence committed outside India by any person. It does not apply to the following. a negotiable instrument as defined in section 13 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881; a power-of-attorney as defined in section 1A of the Power-of-attorney Act, 1882;

23. Information Technology Act in a capsule a trust as defined in section 3 of the Indian Trusts Act, 1882; a will as defined in section 2 (h) of the Indian Succession Act, 1925 (39 of 1925) including any other testamentary disposition by whatever name called; any contract for the sale or conveyance of immovable property or any interest in such property; any such class of documents or transactions as may be notified by the Central Government in the Official Gazette.

24. DIGITAL SIGNATURES: LEGITIMACY AND USE The Act has adopted the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) for securing electronic transactions. A digital signature means an authentication of any electronic record by a subscriber by means of an electronic method or procedure in accordance with the other provisions of the Act. Thus a subscriber can authenticate an electronic record by affixing his digital signature. A private key is used to create a digital signature whereas a public key is used to verify the digital signature and electronic record. They both are unique for each subscriber and together form a functioning key pair.

25. DIGITAL SIGNATURES: LEGITIMACY AND USE Further, the Act provides that when any information or other matter needs to be authenticated by the signature of a person, the same can be authenticated by means of the digital signature affixed in a manner prescribed by the Central Government. The Act also gives the Central Government powers: a) to make rules prescribing the digital signature b) the manner in which it shall be affixed c) the procedure to identify the person affixing the signature d) the maintenance of integrity, security and confidentiality of records or e) payments and rules regarding any other appropriate matters

26. DIGITAL SIGNATURES: LEGITIMACY AND USE These signatures are to be authenticated by Certifying Authorities (CAs) appointed under the Act. These authorities would inter alia, have the license to issue Digital Signature Certificates (DSCs). The applicant must have a private key that can create a digital signature. This private key and the public key listed on the DSC must form the functioning key pair. Once the subscriber has accepted the DSC, he shall generate the key pair by applying the security procedure. Every subscriber is under an obligation to exercise reasonable care and caution to retain control of the private key corresponding to the public key listed in his DSC. The subscriber must take all precautions not to disclose the private key to any third party. If however, the private key is compromised, he must communicate the same to the Certifying Authority (CA) without any delay.

27. DESPATCH & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT- ELECTRONIC RECORDS All electronic records sent by an originator, his agent or an information system programmed by or on his behalf are attributable to him Where the originator has not agreed with the addressee that the acknowledgement of receipt of electronic data shall be given in a manner, the acknowledgement may be given by Any communication by the addressee, automated or otherwise; or Any conduct of the addressee, sufficient to indicate to the originator that the electronic record has been received

28. DESPATCH & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT- ELECTRONIC RECORDS Where the originator had stipulated that it shall be binding only on receipt of acknowledgement, then unless acknowledgement has been received, it shall mean that the electronic data was never sent. Where no such stipulation was made, then the originator may give a notice to the addressee stating that no such acknowledgement has been received and specifying a time by which the acknowledgement must be received by him, if still no acknowledgement is received, he may after giving notice to the addressee treat the electronic data as never sent Unless otherwise agreed the dispatch of an electronic record occurs when it enters a computer resource outside the control of the originator

29. DESPATCH & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT- ELECTRONIC RECORDS Unless otherwise agreed the time of receipt of electronic record shall be determined as follows: if the addressee has designated a computer resource for the purpose of receiving electronic records- receipt occurs at the time when the electronic record enters the designated computer resource; or if the electronic is sent to a resource that is not designated, receipt occurs when it is retrieved by the addressee
