We go over the basics of how to monitor traffic on your network using taps and Wireshark!

Let's Talk Taps!


midBit Technologies: SharkTap Gigabit Ethernet Sniffer
* PoE Passthrough
* 350mA draw at 5volts (USB Powered)
* Auto-MDIX
* Aggregates both sides of the conversation to the receive port on the tap
-- (This DOES mean that if the total aggregate bandwidth exceeds 1Gbps, packets will drop
* Drops any packets going into the Tap port

Step 1: Get a Tapping device
* Gig, 10/100, aggregating, tap, hub, SPAN/Mirror port
* See episode 63 of "Know How"
* Padre prefers the Netoptics Gig Zero Delay Tap – But that runs $700-$1000 USED!
* A much more affordable option is the "Throwing Star LAN Tap Pro" from the HakShop - $39.99
* But my new AFFORDABLE favorite is the SharkTap

Step 2: Get a device capable of receiving the tap data stream
* Anything with a WIRED port that is capable of receiving the full speed of your chosen tap
* USB adapters are fine, but remember that USB 2.0 devices top out at 480Mbps. If you're using a Gig tap, you'll drop traffic once the pipe is less than half full.

Step 3: Get Wireshark (www.wireshark.org)
* Mac/PC/Linux – 32/64bit – Choose the version that is right for you.

Step 4: Choose where to place your tap
* The tap will capture the traffic going between the two devices on either side of the tap.
* Tapping the Externals will give you ALL devices on your network.
* Tapping the Wireless AP will give you ONLY the devices connected wirelessly
* Tapping a specific desktop/laptop/set-top box will give you ONLY that traffic

What if we take relatively inexpensive hardware and use it to APPROXIMATE Segmented Security?

Hosts: Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ and Bryan Burnett

We answer community questions about how WannaCry works and what files are affected, along with WanaKiwi which can help if you've been infected, but it's not guaranteed.

The original memory scrubbing, prime number searching WannaKey decryptor tool (for XP) was written by Adrien Guinet (@adriengnt) and then used as the base for Wanakiwi developed by Benjamin Delpy (@gentilkiwi).

How it works:

• WanaKey was developed by Ardien Guinet (@adriengnt)
• WanaKey was used as a base for WanaKiwi

WanaKey only works on XP

WanaKiwi works on XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1

They're "Memory Scrubbing" programs:

• The way that WannaCry works is that it generates a public and private key.
• The keys are generated using primes
• WannaCry then deletes the private key // you need to pay the ransom to get that key for decryption
  • WanaKey & WanaKiwi both take advantage of the fact that even though the program deletes the private key, the PRIMES that were used to generate that key is still in memory
  • However, this is VERY time sensitive
• WK scans the address space of the WannaCry process (This is why the PID is important)
  • We need to find the keys BEFORE the process reuses that memory space
  • This is why you can't reboot or kill the process
