Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security iii Instructor Notes This module teaches students how to identify possible threats to a network and understand common motivations of attackers. The module introduces threat modeling as an effective way to predict where threats may occur in an organization. After completing this module, students will be able to:  Explain common network vulnerabilities and how attackers can exploit them.  Predict threats to security by using the STRIDE (Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information disclosure, Denial of service, Elevation of privilege) threat model. To teach this module, you need Microsoft ® PowerPoint ® file 2830A_03.ppt. It is recommended that you use PowerPoint version 2002 or later to display the slides for this course. If you use PowerPoint Viewer or an earlier version of PowerPoint, all the features of the slides may not be displayed correctly.

Presentation: 45 minutes Lab: 45 minutes Required materials Important Preparation tasks iv Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security How to Teach This Module This section contains information that will help you to teach this module. Lesson: Introduction to Security Threats Mention that these are simply a few of the more common types of attacks, but there are many types of attacks that can threaten a network. If students ask about security patches, tell them that these topics are covered in Module 6, “Creating a Security Design for Computers.” The key point of this page is that attacks can be very complex and elaborate. Not all attacks are as simple as a virus infecting a network. Students must be vigilant and be aware that there are many points at which a network may be vulnerable to attack. Draw upon your own experience or recent news events to describe attacks. Other difficulties that you can discuss with students include large networks, publicly available resources, supporting users for public networks, and users who are connected to both public and private networks. Students may bring up the issue of internal attackers. Tell them that some of this topic is covered in Module 7, “Creating a Security Design for Accounts,” Appendix A, “Designing an Acceptable Use Policy,” and Appendix B, “Designing Policies for Managing Networks.” Lesson: Predicting Threats to Security Predicting threats and analyzing the risks involved forms the foundation of security design. Threat modeling and risk analysis not only help determine the countermeasures that students will select and design, but they also provide justification to management for resource allocation. Emphasize to students throughout the course that management may often be resistant to spending money and resources on perceived threats. By carefully listing as many threats as possible and the risks involved, students can persuade management of security threats in language that management can understand. It will also help security designers keep track of what threats management chooses to respond to, and which threats it deems acceptable. Risk management is covered in greater detail in Module 4, “Analyzing Security Risks.” Students may feel overwhelmed when presented with the task of classifying attacks according to a threat model. They may feel that modeling all potential threats is a daunting task. Ensure them that the first time that they do threat modeling it may take some time, but with experience it becomes easier. Creating the team to model threats can be challenging. Encourage students to use experienced personnel if possible, but also to choose objective participants. The developer who created the application being modeled for threats may not be able to conceive of any weaknesses in the application, or may subconsciously steer the discussion away from vulnerabilities out of pride or other emotions. In this example, the developer may provide useful technical information for the team but may not be the most objective participant. Common Types of Network Vulnerabilities How Network Attacks Occur Difficulties in Defending Networks The STRIDE Threat Model Steps for Predicting Threats with a Threat Model Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security v Assessment There are assessments for each lesson, located on the Student Materials compact disc. You can use them as pre-assessments to help students identify areas of difficulty, or you can use them as post-assessments to validate learning. Lab A: Identifying Threats to Network Security To begin the lab, open Microsoft Internet Explorer and click the name of the lab. Play the video interviews for students, and then instruct students to begin the lab with their lab partners. Give students approximately 30 minutes to complete this lab, and spend about 15 minutes discussing the lab answers as a class. In this lab, students review a network diagram of a proposed business-to- business (B2B) infrastructure and a list of IP addresses. They then use a threat modeling worksheet to record top threats to the B2B infrastructure. In this lab, students do not send a reply e-mail to Ashley Larson. Instead, they open a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet named Threat Model Worksheet.xls and add information to it. Ensure that students rename the file and save the spreadsheet to the Lab Answers folder on their desktops for discussion. This lab is slightly different from the previous lab in that students do not answer the lab with an e-mail to Ashley Larson, but rather by saving their answers to a spreadsheet on their desktops. Ensure that students understand this before proceeding with the lab. Other labs may also require students to save files to their desktops. Ashley’s mail instructs students to find at least 10 threats, and at least one for each STRIDE category. Without some type of scope, students may find the exercise somewhat daunting. However, encourage students to find as many threats as they can in the time allotted. Depending on the experience of the students, consider assigning different STRIDE categories to different partners or small teams. The answers for this lab are located in the spreadsheet Lab Answers 3.xls, located in the Answers folder under Webfiles on the Student Materials CD. Be sure to print the answers out and study them before you conduct the lab. When discussing the lab answers, encourage groups of students to write their top 10 threats on the whiteboard, and discuss students’ conclusions as a class. The answers in the spreadsheet are suggested answers only. Encourage students to find additional threats, such as inexperienced administrators. Also mention to students that the spreadsheet is available to them on the Student Materials CD. For general lab suggestions, see the Instructor Notes in Module 2, “Creating a Plan for Network Security.” Those notes contain detailed suggestions for facilitating the lab environment used in this course.

Important Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security 1 Overview ***************************** ILLEGAL FOR NON - TRAINER USE ****************************** In this module, you will learn how to identify possible threats to a network and understand common motivations of attackers. The module introduces the STRIDE (Spoofing, Tampering, Repudiation, Information disclosure, Denial of service, Elevation of privilege) threat model as an effective way to predict where threats may occur in an organization. After completing this module, you will be able to:  Explain common network vulnerabilities and how attackers can exploit them.  Predict threats to security by using the STRIDE model. Introduction Ob jectives 2 Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security Lesson: Introduction to Security Threats ***************************** ILLEGAL FOR NON - TRAINER USE ****************************** A threat describes a danger or vulnerability. Threats can occur from a variety of sources, such as attacks or an incorrectly configured application. After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Explain why network attacks occur.  Describe who attacks networks.  Describe common types of network vulnerabilities.  Describe how network attacks take place.  List the difficulties of defending networks. Introduction Lesson ob jectives Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security 3 Why Network Attacks Occur ***************************** ILLEGAL FOR NON - TRAINER USE ****************************** Attackers attempt to compromise the security of networks and applications for a variety of reasons, including:  Revenge. An attacker may feel slighted by an organization and want to punish it. Sometimes, former employees attack their previous organizations for revenge. This attacker is particularly dangerous due to his in-depth knowledge of the network and his personal motivation for attack.  Espionage. An attacker may spy on an organization or government to obtain secrets. Such an attacker is often motivated by patriotism or monetary gain.  Publicity. An attacker may attack a network or application to seek public notoriety or to advertise her own services. Publicity seekers often report their attacks.  Personal satisfaction. An attacker may attack networks as a hobby, for the challenge, or to boost his ego. This type of attacker is dangerous due to his efforts to attack networks indiscriminately.  Terrorism. An attacker may attack a network as part of a group- or state- sponsored terrorist effort. These are the most serious types of attackers because human life may be at risk. Key points 4 Module 3: Identifying Threats to Network Security Who Attacks Networks? ***************************** ILLEGAL FOR NON - TRAINER USE ****************************** Attackers of all abilities and motivations are dangerous to network security in different ways:  Novice. Most attackers have only basic computer knowledge but are still dangerous because they often do not fully understand the consequences of their actions.  Intermediate. Attackers with intermediate skills are often trying to gain respect in attacker communities. Typically, they attack prominent targets or create automated tools for others to attack networks.  Advanced. Highly skilled attackers present a serious challenge to network security because their methods of attack can extend beyond technology into physical intrusion and social engineering, or misleading a user or administrator in order to gain information. Although there are relatively few advanced attackers, their skills and experience make them the most dangerous attackers to a network.
