Maybe some of you hackers can help me out. We have someone(s) that are attacking our networks, and they are using some old tricks like IP spoofing and address masking. I can trap and trace them back to the origin IP address, but it takes too long using the sniffer software. Anyone know any good shortcuts? We'd like to catch these guys while they are still online.

If you have the IP address you can use the command prompt and the trace route function. If it is not an invalid IP address trace route can find the origin of any IP address very quickly. There is also a function that can trace the hops and their IP addresses using the command prompt, otherwise known as a DOS window.

Trace Route (tracert) is the way one would detect the hops back to an IP address.

Here is a link to a program I have found useful.

What Sniffing software are you using , Shouldn't take no time if you have good software , its live and shows you not only what there doing what there looking at and downloading and where there accessing and from where

Some free ones Below AnalogX recomended

But for the Professional Suite you need

But its obvious your attackers are a little knowledgeable and are Spoofing there address and Proberly using proxy servers in that case its going to take alot of work to track and find them

The first thing you need to do is get all the info you can on them

Click Start then Click Run type cmd hit enter

now type netstat /a to show Listing to all incoming connections

https://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/netstat.mspx?mfr=true

ipconfig /all

http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/ipconfig.mspx?mfr=true

use tracert once you have gathered all the Information you can

But if your a home User I apologize

Sence your not Advance enough to track them your Best bet is to stop them

Stop the Ip Spoofing

1. Use authentication based on key exchange between the machines on your network; something like IPsec will significantly cut down on the risk of spoofing.

2. Use an access control list to deny private IP addresses on your downstream interface.

3. Implement filtering of both inbound and outbound traffic.

4. Configure your routers and switches if they support such configuration, to reject packets originating from outside your local network that claim to originate from within.

5. Enable encryption sessions on your router so that trusted hosts that are outside your network can securely communicate with your local hosts.


A good Book to read

http://books.google.com/books?id=aykZtEhl6GMC&pg=PA198&lpg=PA198&dq=prevent+ip+spoofing&source=web&ots=DTJQiyiMY9&sig=194aguWgqKVedj2fJAD_JHRGgak

http://www.symantec.com/norton/sygate/index.jsp Aka Nortons

http://www.alken.nl/online-security-check.htm

use Professional Firewall software like Blackice
