....information to interested members of the Internet community. Passwords, which are vulnerable to passive attack, are not strong enough to be appropriate in the current Internet [CERT94] Further, there is ample evidence that both passive and active attacks are not uncommon in the current Internet [Bellovin89, Bellovin92, Bellovin93, CB94, Stoll90]. The authors of this paper believe that many protocols used in the Internet should have stronger authentication mechanisms so that they are at least protected from passive attacks. Support for authentication mechanisms secure against active attack is clearly desirable in internetworking ....

....of government computing resources from unauthorized use . Sensitive information and intellectual properties must be protected from unauthorized disclosure, modification, or destruction. The vulnerability of information that is accessible from or transmitted across the Internet is welldocumented (Stoll 1990; Bellovin 1992, 1993; CERT 1994; Cheswick and Bellovin 1994) Perhaps the most significant threat is the capability of any networked workstation to eavesdrop on network traffic. This could lead to the capture and exploitation of user authentication information. For example, the rash of computer ....

....weaknesses that they regard as posing serious risks in widely used Internet systems and components. They range from password guessing to attacks on the programs that perform the network time protocol or handle mail transmission. Some of these have led to successful and well publicized attacks [Stoll 1989, Spafford 1989] and many of them have been exploited for mischievous or criminal purposes. When the Internet and the systems that are connected to it were designed, security was not a priority. The designers probably had no conception of the scale to which the Internet would grow, and the basic ....

Security & Distributed Systems - Moffett   (Correct)

....the number of messages grows exponentially until the network halts. Another risk is that unprotected systems may be used as an entry point into other inadequately protected but sensitive systems. The case of the German hackers who obtained access to many sensitive systems illustrated this risk (Stoll, 1989). They used unprotected systems as bases from which to probe systematically for security weaknesses in other more sensitive systems, with a surprisingly high degree of success. This resulted not only in the exposure of confidential information, but also in extra costs for several sites who only ....

....systems may be used as an entry point into other inadequately protected but sensitive systems. For example German hackers used unprotected systems as bases from which to probe systematically for security weaknesses in other more sensitive systems, with a surprisingly high degree of success (Stoll, 1989). The communications network used by distributed components to exchange information may also be subject to malicious or accidental threats, e.g. eavesdropping, recording and replay of messages, and the malicious modification or accidental corruption of messages. In certain cases protection against ....

....guaranteed (since the entire machine, including the secure coprocessor, may be destroyed) The logs, however, can be made tamper evident. This is important for detecting intrusions. Experience shows that skilled attackers will attempt to forge system logs to eliminate evidence of penetration (see [94] for an interesting case study) The privacy and integrity of the system accounting logs and audit trails can be guaranteed simply by holding them inside the secure coprocessor. However, it is awkward to have to keep all logs inside the secure coprocessor since they can grow very large and ....

The attacker, whom we shall dub Cuckoo in honor of Cliff Stoll s book [Sto89], is coming from machine cracker.ritts.org, 150.151.152.153. The essence of the basic attack relies on the nature of the address to name mapping. As noted above, this mapping uses an independent DNS tree. Assume that the inverse mapping record for 150.151.152.153 is changed from the correct ....

....is more appropriate, though those of a classical bent may prefer Vandals , or even Goths or Visigoths . these log the request, and initiate counterintelligence strategies to learn something about the source of the request. We are certainly not the first ones to attempt to trick attackers[Sto88, Sto89, HM91]. But our motivation is somewhat different. We do not expect to prosecute, because (we hope) no damage will occur to our machines. This is not to say that the attackers do not try such things; see, for example, Che92] Nor, in general, do we care much about the identity of any particular ....
