Have to figure out how to get the dashboard to redirect to the new link without having to change every dashboard piece separately. NTOP is running it's own web server. Let's tell it to run over SSL too. I can't figure out where the NTOP is so lets reset it. ntop -A Set a new . Copy the apache.pem certificate to the ntop config folder. /etc/apache2/apache.pem /etc/ntop/ntop-cert.pem Configure NTOP to use HTTPS Open NTOP in your web browser. http://ossim.ip:3000 Go to the tab and choose startup options. Enter the for the id and the you just assigned to it. Change the HTTP Server (-w) field from 3000 to 0. Change the HTTPS Server (-W) field from 0 to 3000. Scroll down and click Save Preferences. Shutdown NTOP Click on the tab and then click on shutdown. This will stop NTOP. OSSIM is running a monitor for this service, so you can just simply wait and OSSIM will restart it. Change the OSSIM configuration to point to the new ssl site. Edit /etc/ossim/framework/ossim.conf and change the ntop_link field from # to https://serverip:3000 Run the reconfig.pl script chmod 700 /home/ossim/dist/reconfig.pl /home/ossim/dist/reconfig.pl

Now if you go into the ossim web based config utility, the link will be changed and grayed out. Unfortunately, that still doesn't change the dashboard links... I'm still trying to find out how to change those.

My question is where is the file that has these links so i can update it or is there a config change i can make in apache auto forward http requests to https for each page. The system is a almost bare bones install from the install cd i got from AlienVault. I am not to familiar with apache, i use lighttpd most of the time instead, so any help would be gratefully accepted.

Subject: Re: Use HTTPS instead of HTTP Posted by phishphreek on Fri, 06 Jun 2008 21:35:45 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message I haven't had an opportunity to mess with it too much more. I ended up changing the links via Dashboard, edit and then editing the s separately. This works OK for me as I am the only . These dashboards are configured on a per basis, so if you have multiple s, each will have to change their links. The config files are located in /etc/framework//configs The main dashboard page is /etc/framework//configs/_1 The dashboard page with the ntop data is /etc/framework//configs/_5_1 Each time I try to manually edit those files to update the links, it get OSSIM throwing an error complaining about bad data. From looking at their reconfig script in /home/ossim/dist/reconfig.pl I found they are using a file called edit_serialized_ips_s_conf.php which they use to replace the ip address if you change it and use the reconfig script.

I haven't yet had the free time to modify this script to have it grab the ntop_link field from /etc/framework/ossim.conf if it has been modified and store it in some variable. Then have the script go through and change it in the *_1 and *_5_1 files. jimsmithkka: I think you're running into a little different issue. My nagios is actually running on a separate server. I changed my links to point to the server and all worked fine for me... I'll have to look into it in vmware and see why yours won't work.

Subject: OSSEC Quick Start Guide Posted by Ahriakin on Sun, 07 Sep 2008 00:34:03 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message Hi Folks, This is not a detailed tutorial on OSSEC just a getting started guide. I highly recommend Syngress "OSSEC - Host Based Intrusion Detection Guide" http://www.amazon.com/OSSEC-Host-Based-Intrusion-Detection-G uide/dp/159749240X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&q id=1220745267&sr=8-1 if you intend to seriously use this excellent tool. I'm still a Linux beginner myself and from the other posts I see here I'm not the only one so I'm going to try and make these instructions as verbose as possible command-wise so that even beginners can perform them. I'll try and follow this up with some tips that I've found useful in later posts. If anyone has any comments or improvements let me know (like I said I am no expert, or a script-god like PhishPhreak ;), this is just an attempt to help others at my level so any comments are welcome) Anyway : **** Upgrade the master server: As of posting OSSIM includes OSSEC 1.4 and 1.6 has just become available. Thankfully upgrading is a very simple process. 1. the latest source from www.ossec.net to your TMP folder - cd /tmp - wget http://www.ossec.net/files/ossec-hids-1.6.tar.gz (for later versions simply open a browser and go to the OSSEC.net page and right-click the link to the file you want, then copy-link-location and paste it after "wget " 2. Extract the file - tar -zxvf ossec-hids-1.6.tar.gz 3. Enter the newly extracted folder - cd ossec-hids-1.6 4. Run the install script - ./install.sh


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

--- It will detect the existing install and ask if you want to upgrade: YES --- It will ask if you want to upgrade the rules: YES 5. Add OSSEC to the agent plugin list - nano /etc/ossim/agent/config.cfg --- under the [plugins] section add the following line ossec=/etc/ossim/agent/plugins/ossec.cfg 6. Restart the OSSIM agent - /etc/init.d/ossim-agent restart

That's it the OSSEC server is now on the latest version and OSSIM is monitoring it. This upgrade will keep any existing client details, historical data etc. and is backward compatible with older clients so you won't break anything by doing it. ** Adding clients to the OSSEC server All important files for OSSEC are located in /var/ossec, the control utilities are in /var/ossec/bin 1. Add a new client: - cd /var/ossec/bin - ./manage_agents --- Choose A to add an agent, enter the client IP and ID you'd like to use (accepting the defaults is fine, ID's are how OSSEC keeps track of clients internally so it doesn't have to match anything else it just has to be unique) Personally I prefer to pre-configure all of my clients here at once so I add each and every host that will have OSSEC agents installed now. I'm going to presume you do the same and don't have RSS injuries when you're done :). So from this point on I will act as if you have added every agent to the master server. 2. Restart the OSSEC server to make the changes (in this case new agents) active. - ./ossec-control stop - ./ossec-control start

**** Installing the OSSEC agent on Windows Hosts Get the latest agent from www.ossec.net 1. Run the installer executable and accept all defaults. 2. When presented with the 'OSSEC Agent Manager' enter the IP of your OSSIM/OSSEC Master Server. 3. Enter the Client/Server authentication key - SSH to your Master Server and run the manage_agent utility - /var/ossim/bin/manage_agents --- choose 'E' to extract a client key


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

--- Enter the ID for this client (if you are not sure of the ID then first choose 'L' to list the agents and record the ID number). --- Copy the entire text below the line "Agent key Information for "ID" is:" and paste it into the Authentication Key line on the client's OSSEC Manage Agent window, then hit Save IMPORTANT when you hit save it will show a small popup window with this client's IP, name and ID, make sure they are all correct as this is the data it has extracted from the key you just pasted in and it is what the server is expecting to see, if they do not match then the client will not authenticate to the server and it won't work. If they do match just hit Okay, if not go back and check how the agent was setup on the server and that you pasted the extracted key properly. 4. Start the OSSEC service - From the client OSSEC Manage Agent utility click Manage / Start OSSEC and then refresh, make sure it says it is running. * An alternative of course is to extract all keys and IDs into a text file that you can access from each client but if you do make sure it is absolutely secure, and ideally secure delete it when done. ** Installing on Linux Hosts 1. the agent software to the TMP folder: - cd /tmp - wget http://www.ossec.net/files/ossec-hids-1.6.tar.gz (it uses the same package for all 3 types of Linux installs so you could just copy the file you used on the server) 2. Extract the package - tar -zxvf ossec-hids-1.6.tar.gz 3. Install it - cd ossec-hids-1.6 - ./install.sh --- When prompted for the installation type choose "agent" --- When prompted for the OSSEC server IP use the OSSIM/OSSEC Master server --- Accept all other defaults. 4. Configure the agent authentication from the client - /var/ossec/bin/manage_agent --- choose 'I' to import the key --- follow the steps described in the Windows agent install to copy the client's key from the Master Server and paste it into the Import Key prompt. 5. Restart the agent - /var/ossec/bin/ossec-control stop - /var/ossec/bin/ossec-control start ** Replacing the full OSSEC server on OSSIM-Child servers with agent only reporting to your master server, and also upgrading


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

Follow the steps above for the Linux agent installation but at the start OSSEC will detect the existing installation: --- When prompted to upgrade say 'No' --- When prompted to delete the folder say 'Yes' Otherwise it is identical to a normal Linux Agent install. (and to restart with "/var/ossec/bin/ossec-control stop+start" when done. **** Testing the connection between client and server Firstly you can install OSSEC's own Web interface alongside OSSIM's. There is a guide on how to do this here https://www.ossim.net/forum/index.php?t=msg&th=62&st art=0&S=d92e33f115348ff90f531433414935e0 . The only thing I'd add is I had issues with some of the other functions like NTop and Snort graphs until I changed the permissions on /TMP to anyone full control (chmod 777 /tmp) which is not the most secure but it solved my issues. Most of the UI's functions are intact except some searches and graphs. Anyway to directly test the client connection: From the Master Server: 1. List active all clients - /var/ossec/bin/agent_control -l --- Look for the clients you have connected and make sure they are Active 2. Get more detail from the client - /var/ossec/bin/agent_control -i (ID of client) --- This will tell you the last scan times, client version etc. If your client is shown as active you should be good to go....

Subject: Osiris - Quick Guide Posted by Ahriakin on Sun, 12 Oct 2008 01:54:15 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message Hi folks,


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

Just like the OSSEC guide this is just to get you going, if you want to delve into Osiris properly I highly recommend "Host Integrity Monitoring using Osiris and Samhain" by Brian Wotring ( http://www.amazon.com/Integrity-Monitoring-Using-Osiris-Samh ain/dp/1597490180/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=122 3771961&sr=8-1). Firstly why would you want to use Osiris when you use OSSEC? OSSEC is more fully featured in that it performs system file, registry, service, , rootkit checks, parses Syslog etc. with some event correlation whereas Osiris is mainly a file integrity (change) monitor with some extra modules for detecting changes in services, ports and s. If you had to choose between the 2 then OSSEC is a better bet for intensive monitoring (it also works brilliantly within allowing you to use it to filter Syslog and other events from it's own engine before placing them in the Database which can save you a lot of U cycles if your OSSEC server is a child OSSIM server), but that's just it it is intensive whereas Osiris is more easily tuned and less resource intensive. \ By default OSSEC agents run their system checks every 6 hours (you can change this but I'll place that note in the OSSEC thread). If you increase the frequency you run the risk of degrading host performance but at the same time I think you need more granularity in the logs, at least for the more important files. What I like to do is running Osiris every 2 hours to bridge the gaps between the more intensive OSSEC scans. I may change this in the future but for now I think it works well. I'm also planning on setting up a second scan weekly that does not purge the databases so I have a 7 day snapshot of the files for my records but I'm getting a but beyond the scope of this guide, just trying to make it clear why I still use Osiris in conjunction with OSSEC. Anyway on to the installation/config: **************************************************** Osiris agents work differently to OSSEC. With OSSEC you created keys on the server and imported them to the agents, from then on the agents run on their own schedule with their own configs and report the results back to the server based on the xxxxx value in ossec.conf. Osiris agents work differently in that they are essentially like remote sockets to which the Server will push the scan config and request scans when needed, i.e. the agent will do nothing on it's own, it always waits for instructions from the Master server. You do not need to manually create and import authentication keys it uses certificates, when you install an agent it will listen for and trust the first master server that s it, after that it will only accept communications from that server as it saves it's certificate. You still have to create clients on the Master Server

Server Configuration - Configs Before configuring within Osiris itself you will want to view and perhaps modify the configs it will use on the agents. Since Osiris keeps all of it's config data within flat files you can edit them with nano, though many can be configured within Osiris CLI itself I prefer to do it

manually outside. The host config files are located in /var/lib/osirismd/configs/ . In the following example I will read and modify the Server 2003 config to change the file hash method to SHA1 and add the optional module for reading port changes, add scanning of C:\Windows (Osiris defaults to using c:\winnt as the Windows folder, adding a folder that does not exist (i.e. having both Winnt and Windows) will not cause any issues as it will just skip the one that isn't there) and include .bat and .scr files in the scan filetypes, finally I will add an exclusion to ignore my Symantec AV definition folder aswell as the OCS Inventory Agent folder (as they change a lot and yield log-noise false positives). enter the config folder 1. cd /var/lib/osirismd/configs/ run 'ls' to read the directory and then 'nano' your config file 2. nano default.windowsserver2003 change the hash method to SHA1 3. Change 'Hash md5' to 'Hash sha1' add the port module 4. Under <system> add 'Include mod_ports' add .bat and .scr to the filetypes to scan 5. Under add 'Include suffix("bat")' and 'Include suffix("scr")' Add the same scanning options for c:\windows 6. Highlight the entire section (including , press CTRL+C, move the cursor to below that Directory section and right-click to paste (most terminal emulators follow that convention, if yours doesn't then find how to paste). Edit the new line to read Exclude the Symantec definition and OCS folders 7. Under add : NoEntry OCS Inventory Agent NoEntry Common Files\Symantec Shared\VirusDefs NoEntry Common Files\Symantec Shared\SymcData NoEntry Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Inetpub\content NoEntry SAV\I2_LDVP.VDB NoEntry Symantec AntiVirus\I2_LDVP.VDB Save and exit 8. Press CTRL+X, Y to save changes and accept the same filename. OPTIONAL: Use the same config for your Windows 2000 Servers 9. Rename the existing Server 2000 config mv default.windows2000 default.windows2000.old. Copy your modified 2003 config to replace it default.windowsserver2003 default.windows2000 When you look at the config files you'll see they are very intuitive so adding files, including/excluding folders etc. is quite easy. Just that if you modify a config and want to manually scan an existing client you need to push the config first, if you manually start a scan it does not send the new config (however the scheduled scans always push the current config first so they are covered).

Edit basic server parameters: edit-mhost (mainly here if you plan on using email alerts outside of OSSIM add your default address, you can override this on each client if you wish but it can save sometime just to do it here, add your SMTP host and if you wish modify the Authorized management hosts (I advise you to just leave it on the default of 127.0.0.1 so it can only be edited when logged into the server directly). 4. Edit s: edit-s Add a new or change the - WARNING it does not prompt you to your changes so make sure you get it right :), it's a good idea to add a backdoor for this reason. 5. Add new clients - I'm going with the OSSIM recommended setup, only changing the email options and scheduling. new-host - Name (only significant to Osiris, but it's a good idea to match it to the hostname or functional name you use in all of OSSIM's other tools (I like to use (location)-(type)-(hostname) e.g. A server called SuperServer in Orlando would be orl-SRVR-SuperServer). The name is similar to IDs in OSSEC, it is how you identify the client through the console for all operations. - Hostname/IP (yes you can use the DNS FQDN here if you wish) - Description (up to you) - agent-port (do not change) - enable log files for this host? (Since we are logging to OSSIM no need, and they take up space) - Keep archives of scan databases? (Definitely no as it will keep databases even if no changes are detected...what's the point unless you want a nice warm fuzzy feeling that nothing has changed?) - auto accept changes? (Yes, let it set the new baselines when changes are detected)

- purge databases? (Again since we are logging to OSSIM leave this as Yes, if disabled each scan of each host is kept on the server and they can pretty soon eat up your storage space this is not your only option for keeping historical data outside of OSSIM though, see the email section below) - enable email notifications for this host? (Here's where I deviate from the OSSIM recommendations as I want historical data available to my colleagues without having them access OSSIM/Osiris directly). I set it to Yes but it's your call. -- send notification on scheduled scan failures? (Yes, I want to know if it didn't run). - send scan notification, even when no changes detected? (No, again I think this is pointless unless it is required by your security policy). - send notification when agent has lost session key? (I set it to Yes, Clients use the same session key with the Server until their Osirisd service is restarted. It will happen naturally when the client is rebooted, but if the client lost it's session key and it wasn't rebooted then someone restarted the service and that is a wee bit suspicious to me and you may need the event later for correlation). - notification email? (here you can override the default email address you entered when you used 'edit-most' earlier to set some basic server parameters, leaving it blank just uses that default address) - configure scan scheduling information? (yes) - enter the start date and time - enter the scan frequency (enter the time between scans in minutes. The default is 4 hours, I prefer 2 - I am using Osiris to fill the gaps between the OSSEC scans (6 hours). If you are entering a lot of hosts at once I recommend varying your scan frequency a little, e.g. 1st = 120, next = 121, next = 119 etc. This way over time the scans will move apart and you randomize the scan times a bit to reduce the load on your Master Server) - enable this host (Yes). The server will the client and provided it is a clean install of Osiris it will show you the OS type and ask if you want to use the default config (since we edited that config earlier we can accept it). And finally initialize and begin scanning the host. ******** Getting OSSIM to read the Osiris events - Credit to Crislato for clarifying this for me 1. Edit the agent configuration on the Master Server nano /etc/ossim/agent/plugins/osiris.cfg Under the [translation] section add all of the clients you added previously with the same Names and IP addresses you used within Osiris. 2. Restart the OSSIM agent /etc/init.d/ossim-agent restart ************************************************ I mentioned setting up email alerts earlier and the reason I do is my default address is a mailbox that my colleagues also have access to. They can quickly read the email alerts for the servers they need details on for the time period in question right from their email clients rather

Directions for the Tech OSSIM Restore In case of a system failure you will need the OSSIM cd and the most recent full back up and restore script. The full system back up and script can be found on (what ever location) 1. Unplug the NIC, Boot from the OSSIM cd 2. Enter what ever values you like at any prompt. Except under partitioning accept the defaults. 3. After the install is complete put in the backup cd with the restore script. 4. at the prompt as root with whatever you set during the install. 5. type " mount /dev/hda " 6. type "/media/cdrom0/./restore.sh " 7. After it is finished restoring it will reboot. Remove the cd, plug in the NIC, and test out your restored system. All s,original s, data and programs should be available.

I don't know if you really need to kill all the services in the back up script but it works. The Idea came from a forum somewhere. Just don't know which one.

Subject: SNORT - Fast Sensor Up to date Posted by sapling on Wed, 10 Dec 2008 20:09:53 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message First of all I would like to say that although I like OSSIM and its abilities I do not like the agent. I seem to have nothing but issues trying to get the agent to properly give OSSIM servers data from agents. The other problem I have is that by default the OSSIM installer for a server is way to slow and not easy to customize for my needs. Not the speed of which it installs but its ability to handle data and create alerts. This is why I decided that I would build a snort sensor that was capable of handling a large flow of data. My snort sensor is capable of handling all of the rules turned on if I so desired and capture full packets from a our bandwidth which is 3xT1's. I am not logging in unified format and send the data directly into mysql. On top of all of this I am running it on a Pentium 4 Single Core 2.4Ghz desktop machine with 1.5Gb's of RAM without any dropped packets. I have a single 80Gb 7200RPM IDE drive.

So with that in mind let me begin my tutorial... Insert a minimal installer disk for debian. Install debian with no additional packages selected. So in other words when it asks if you want Server files, Desktop files, etc... unselect all the options so that it installs only the minimal

packages. Next for my purpose of I decided to give my system 4Gb's of Swap space and formatted the system using ext 2 file system. The reason I decided on ext 2 was for the speed of the reading and writing. Once my system has rebooted and I have my new command line server I get to work. First I edit the sources from etch to testing distribution because I want the newest packages. #nano /etc/apt/sources.list Change everywhere it says etch to testing... #apt-get update #apt-get upgrade #apt-get dist-upgrade #apt-get upgrade reboot Double check to make sure your system is fully up to date and there are no newer versions out there. Install some required files onto the system for the packages I will be installing. #apt-get install gcc g++ make flex gawk automake bison byacc \ libc6 libc6-dev build-essential libtool autoconf mysql-common \ libmysqlclient15-dev libnet1 libnet1-dev libpcre3 libpcre3-dev \ ssh

Now that we have the required packages for snort it's time to install a special version of libpcap. This version of libpcap has mmap enabled. This means that instead of snort waiting for libpcap to move or copy the packets into land memory it enables snort to pull directly from memory where the packets are first written. So lets go ahead and it. #wget http://public.lanl.gov/w/libpcap-0.9.8.20081022.tar.gz #mv libpcap-0.9.8.20081022.tar.gz /usr/src #cd /usr/src #tar xvzf libpcap-0.9.8.20081022.tar.gz #cd libpcap-0.9.8.20081022 #bash bootstrap answer with a lowercase y I like to use c flags for optimization when I install libpcap and snort so feel free to ignore this if you dont want to use my c flats #CFLAGS=-O3 ./configure --enable-shared make make install Copy the following files to the following directories # ./libs/libpcap-0.9.8.so /lib/libpcap.so # ./libs/libpcap-0.9.8.so /lib/libpcap-0.9.8.so # pcap.h /usr/include # pcap-bpf.h /usr/include Now you will need to and install snort I am using the latest stable version at this time 2.8.3.1....

I create a simple little script for the purpose of starting snort and the key here is that. ========/etc/init.d/snort========== #!/bin/bash ifconfig eth0 up #change this to whatever sniffing interface you so desire to use PCAP_MEMORY=650000 snort -c /etc/snort/snort.conf -D -i eth0 -M -u snort -g snort -P 65000 =================================== Explanation of the above: Check to make sure the interface is up Dedicate 650,000kb to snort and use that config in Daemon mode, sniff on interface eth0, Log messages to /var/log/syslog to gather information back, use snort and group snort, and capture the first 65000 bytes. Now I know I said I do full packet captures and I do sorta, I dont capture the tail because of a bug in something I did earlier I can actually run that command with 65412 which isn't the maximum size a packet can be but you will be hard pressed to find packets this large most of the time.

#chmod +x /etc/init.d/snort Modify your snort config to include your emerging threat rules and configure it to log to your database on your ossim server. ======================================= output database: log, mysql, =root =your dbname=snort host=ossim server ip sensor_name=I use local ip addresses here output database: alert, mysql, =root =your dbname=snort host=ossim server ip sensor_name=I use local ip addresses here ======================================= Now we need to make a change on the ossim server so that it will allow us to log to the database. First modify the mysql server to listen on an accessible ip address... Through the /etc/mysql/my.cnf and just to make sure that it doesnt get changed I went ahead and modified the file /etc/ossim/ossim_setup.conf Then make sure you tell the database that the is allowed to access things from that ip address. I stuck with using the root for this tutorial because I wanted to keep things simple but you could always create other s that have limited access in mysql. #mysql -u root -p mysql> GRANT create,insert,select,update,delete on snort.* to root@$mysensor1IPaddress identified by 'my'; mysql>GRANT create,insert,select,update,delete on snort.* to root@$mysensor2IPaddress identified by 'my'; #make sure your is the one from the ossim_setup.conf if you use root Modify the snort database so that it can be used by the latest version of snort... mysql> use snort; mysql> ALTER TABLES signature ADD sig_gid INT UNSIGNED; mysql> INSERT INTO `schema` (vseq, ctime) VALUES ('107', now()); mysql> DELETE FROM `schema` WHERE vseq=106; That should take care of it all. Now if you want to determine how many packets your dropping based on all of this you can do the following. You can enable all rules if you like through this oinkmaster command... #oinkmaster -e -o /etc/snort/rules Now all your rules are turned on which I dont recommend because there are some noisy ones. Just try and keep things to what might happen on your network. Then go ahead and start snort up in another screen without the -D So use this command...

Go back into the screen snorts running on with... #screen -x snort Ctrl+c to kill the process and if you like restart it again this time you can use the -D if you want it to run in the background without issues.

heavily loaded OSSIM_server. Second PF_RING: Well you have to first understand PF_RING and MMAP on a more indepth basis before you go assuming one is better. The benefits of PF_RING are... It handles more volume and its not as sloppy and it doesnt require the kernel as much which means kernel related tasks are now free to continue... MMAP - Allows us to get our packets directly out of RAM so we can analyze them immediately. So when does it really have an advantage over PF_RING? When your dealing with larger packets. In the article I am assuming you read Advanced Packet Capturing he touched the surface of how PF_RING is generally only about .5% slower than MMAP when the packet is 1500bytes long and the bandwidth is full... Well how about when you have a larger packet come across? Tried it? Yes I have... MMAP due to the fact I am giving it Direct Memory allocation can handle it while PF_RING begins to lose focus. So its greatest benefit is for Lots of Packets which are smaller. Making it perfect for NTOP, and other systems that only pull the first 1000 bytes or so. Any other benefits to MMAP? yes its easier to install and get working if your not running RED-HAT... What about PF_RING? Not only is it a kernel patch meaning there is no longer and interaction, but from what I understand you shouldnt need to do anything extra to make it work. As long as your libpcap version s PF_RING then you dont have to worry about your applications being allocated x memory. In the articles I have been reading as well I dont like that they only use MMAP at its basic stages... using PCAP_PACKETS=max is not the best solution if your trying to make sure nothing gets dropped like in my case. I want EVERYTHING. So I use PCAP_MEMORY= (meaning I tell it instead of allocating the based on maximum packets Allocate me a chunk of memory which is the more ideal solution if your are capturing larger packets) How do I know if my packets are that large? If your NTOP is running it will tell you... On my network its not as common but I do see packets above 1500 bytes because we dont restrict it on the routers. I am not the network dont ask me... So if your not seeing a lot of packets over 1500 yes PF_RING will be a great solution.

So they apparently have been improving the PF_RING work as I read but I can't say for sure if it is the ultimate solution. What I can say is for most of us try both and try and turn on everything. If all goes smoothly on a lower class machine on one way than the other then you have your solution.

Now what I have also read is that adding in a few other patches such as the RTIRQ patch will increase even further the amount you can capture with PF_RING. Again test it out... My tutorial is just so you can understand how I am doing it and to improve your homegrown ossim solution.

Subject: Re: SNORT - Fast Sensor Up to date Posted by DK on Fri, 09 Jan 2009 10:12:37 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message I'd like to this interesting discussion :) Personally I've had very good experiences using PF_RING, getting to a <1% package loss with 2 interfaces sniffing at around 900Mbps each. As for the database output part, last time I checked into it snort was single-threaded; capture / analysis and output sharing a single thread. That would mean it's not optimal for any type of serious capture. On the other hand, since you're talking about 3xT1 (4.5Mbps), you really don't have to check onto PF_RING and such. But as said, I disagree with direct database output and, if you having issues with the agent, barnyard should be the way to go. Fixing the issues you've got with the agent would be even better ;)

For step #7, you put "I can’t if I hit “Insert New Sensor” or I clicked the modify button. Will need to fix this." I can confirm you do not need to "Insert New Sensor" it shows up automatically. 3. Can you add the oinkmaster thread (or a link to it). It would be great if we can update this thread on how to configure the sensor for each agent (ie. Nessus, Ntop, OSSEC, etc.), or at least include a link if it is somewhere else in the forum.

I also think this file gets used on boot to tell ossim what this system is used for. So you might be able to remove or add agents there in the sensor area. on step 7, what i meant to say was that the sensor showed up without me doing anything, but had a state of Active=no. i don;t what i did to change it to active=yes. if you let me know.

I want to summarize the default s used inside ossim, where they are located and how to change them. This is work in progress as new stuff with s is being added and behaviour may change. It will always refer to the latest AlienVault installer version, which right now is: - 1.2beta1 (public testing release) Basic behaviour is that the installer creates a random that gets stored into /etc/ossim/ossim_setup.conf. An automated way to extract it would be: grep /etc/ossim/ossim_setup.conf | cut -f 2 -d "="

This is used for: - ntop(it's inside a db file under /var/lib/ntop/) - mysql database (mysql.s table) - ossim (/etc/ossim/framework/ossim.conf) - snort database access (somewhere in the table ossim.config) - phpgacl database access (somewhere in the table ossim.config) - osvdb database access (somewhere in the table ossim.config) - nessus (for the ossim /var/lib/nessus/s/ossim/auth/hash) - ossim server, various entries (/etc/ossim/server/config.xml) - SEM crypto g key (same server config.xml, only applies to the pro version) - Jasperserver mysql access (/var/tomcat/conf/Catalina/localhost/jasperserver.xml) - Forensics console, former BASE (/usr/share/ossim/www/forensics/base.conf and /etc/acidbase/database.php) Then there's the OSSIM interface / combination "/" by default. This is stored as an md5 hash with a -configured salt under ossim.s. Other s are stored in here too. OCS uses a default / too (we need to code single sign on for this). This is stored inside the ocs_inventory DB ( DB/table). The jasperserver console defaults to jasper/jasper. Ditto with single sign on. This is configured in the jasper DB. Tomcat management access defaults to /, configured under /var/tomcat/conf/(self note: ENTER FILE). Ditto. Note: it's on top of our todo list to unify management for all the /jasper stuff. If you're missing any place or see something incorrect please post below and I'll edit this post :)

I understand about the learning curve for linux when coming from windows. I would sugguest installing putty and wins on a windows box if you have one available. Then it is very easy to run cli commands in putty (you can even cut and paste from these forums) or edit files in a windows type environment with wins. lspci | grep Ethernet or lshw -C network

Will show what nics are physically in your machine. That way we can tell more what is going on

By the way which installer are you running? OSSIM 1.0.X is running an older kernel and does not have as much hardware .

P.S. For output that runs off the page you can either lsmod | less # q to quit or lsmod | more # similar to the windows more pipe

you wrote: '>lspci by itself returns a list that contains two ethernet controllers.' Dell uses Intel NICs on the motherboard and it looks like those two are showing up since you say you see two NICs. Your two other NICs in PCI slots are not being recognized is my guess. This is all based upon your comments. Do you know what model the other two NICs are? If they are Intel do something like this dmesg | grep -i eth

Also, when you define NICs in /etc/network/interfaces you will need to add settings for each adapter, but change the iface name on the first line of each section and put them all in the auto line at the top. auto lo eth0 eth1 eth2 eth3 iface eth1 inet manual up ifconfig $IFACE up up ifconfig $IFACE promisc up ifconfig $IFACE -arp down ifconfig $IFACE down

You would think I could see all of the destination addresses for remote traffic in Nmap, since the promiscuous port is attached to a switch port where traffic for the whole network is mirrored. But so far I only see local broadcast and unicast traffic. How disappointing! I'm still only seeing what I would see on a non mirrored switch port.

Subject: Tuning OSSIM for Your Environment Posted by gsporter on Thu, 26 Mar 2009 02:57:35 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message For those of you who have kept up with the 1.2beta’s you know there are LOT’s of alerts and incidents. The trick is which ones are important and translating it into some thing usable.


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

I am trying to work out a process to start cutting down the “white noise” or false positives generated by my network. I am running a heterogeneous network with several distro’s of linux, Windows (AD domain), a number of vmware guest and the miscellaneous other OS. My test network is behind both a hardware and software firewall that are configured fairly strictly and all host run current AV. Therefore so I started under the idea most of the alerts/incidents I was seeing were generated by my network. Note: For the purpose of base lining my network I have not set the two firewalls to log to OSSIM. That will be the next step. The trick as I see it is identifying “normal” traffic from your network, and the traffic generated by OSSIM (plus sensors etc) in order to implement a way to filter out normal traffic. First I have to establish a baseline and “normalize” my data. Then I can look at ways to configure OSSIM correctly

The areas I see for identifying reported traffic include: I.The “Forensics Console” If I select “Unique Alerts” (by the way click on the little graph box to the left for a time trend of that specific alert) My system is current showing 621 total unique alerts. The vast majority of the volume of alerts is generated by 5 signatures’: portscan: Open Port unclassified 261798(47%) Spade: Closed dest port used unclassified 185224(33%) Spade: Source used odd dest port unclassified 145818(26%) MISC UPnP malformed ment unclassified 127904(23%) WEB-MISC Invalid HTTP Version String" unclassified 50706(9%) Note: the percentages do not seem to total up to 100% at this time The first three are generated by OSSIM itself. In fact OSSIM is listed reports a the “attacker” 97% of the time. The UPnP is being generated by Vista and I can disable it. II. Incidents I am hoping that by “tagging” incidents that are benign in my network as OSSIM_INTERNAL_FALSE_POSITIVE or things I need to harden/disable etc OSSIM_INTERNAL_PENDING I will be able to use the jasper server and iReports to generate a more detailed implementation plan.

Subject: Setting Up Logcheck on OSSIM Posted by gsporter on Sun, 29 Mar 2009 18:12:01 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message I have been trying to keep up with the new 1.2 beta's. If you have not tried them I really suggest you install beta4 even if it is in a vm. It has a lot of great new features and if it is any indication OSSIM is moving to a whole new level. Any time I install a beta or new program I am VERY interested in what is going on in the background. Traditionally sys s have used log files for this purpose. They allow you to locate bugs, errors, bottlenecks and even sometimes rogue processes or program you do not want running. I have always hated trying to have to wade through log files from the command line. So I chose to install logcheck to email my OSSIM log files to me. That way I can go thru them on a workstation with a gui at my leisure. "What is Logcheck? Logcheck parses system logs and generates email reports based on anomalies. Anomalies can be defined by s with 'violations' files. It differentiates between 'Active System Attacks' , 'Security Violations', and 'Unusual Activity', and is smart enough to where in the log it stopped processing to improve efficiency. It can also warn when log files shrink, and does not report errors when they are rotated." (1)

Since OSSIM is going to be our "Central Security Repository" it is important that we stay on top of potential problems and intrusions. Therefore it is a good idea to install both a HIDS (ossec) and move copies of the log files to another hopefully secure location. One of the first steps any intruder is going to take is to hide their tracks and one of the ways to do this is alter or delete log files.

Subject: OSSIM + XMPP - mini howto Posted by fyfy on Thu, 11 Jun 2009 04:17:21 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message Heya! I don't know if there's much interest in building XMPP/Jabber stuff on the top of OSSIM on order to simply monitoring process and facilitate the collaboration between OSSIM node operators. Anyway, if you think it is a fun project to play around, let me know, I'll post up on writing ossim-xmpp agents and plugins later. This howto hopefully should get you started. == OSSIM + OpenFire MiniHOWTO == By integrating ossim with openfire we get to have a collaboration framework where you could have groups of operators use Jabber messaging client as primary means of communication and collaboration. Of course you can do even more than that. XMPP is an extendable protocol. You can build security monitoring services on the top of it, so you could use your messaging client (with extensions) as primary security monitoring interface. The monitoring part can be easily done with XMPP based agents, which could talk to OSSIM database or other components directly, and maybe we could talk about it later some time. The cool thing ing agents, that it runs over standard XMPP protocol so you could technically even use your gmail.com client, or mobile phone jabber client to collaborate with your ossim system. However, when you run into huge number of s, scallability might become an issue... There's also another really neat way of adding things up by extending OpenFire server with

custom plugins, then you won't really need agents anymore. But you'll need customized Jabber clients. You can read more about this appraoch here: http://java.sys-con.com/node/232087 anyway, we'll start with the basics. Right now we simply want OSSIM s to be able to into our XMPP server using ossim framework authentication credentials. I used ossim installer here to install the base system. Once you get that stuff done, you'll need to install Java's JRE on your box. Ossim installer is based on debian, so you'll have to install sun-java6-jre package on it. echo " deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ etch-backports main non-free" >> /etc/apt/sources.list apt-get get update apt-get install sun-java6-jre if this went smooth, go to http://www.igniterealtime.org/s/index.jsp and .deb package. Once you've got it, install it: dpkg -i openfire_3.6.4_all.deb you can try to run openfire server at this point: /etc/init.d/openfire start now you should have openfire running on your box with console on ports 9090 and 9091(ssl'ed). One thing you will need to do now is to configure the mysql database for openfire to use. echo "create database openfire" | mysql -p cat /usr/share/openfire/resources/database/openfire_mysql.sql | mysql -p openfire (you'll need to peek at root for mysql, which can be found in /etc/ossim/ossim_setup.conf)

Once you're done w/ this stuff, launch your browser to ossim:9090 and complete the setup. Select external database, and choose mysql database for it. Then correct the url for the mysql database thing. You can skip the setup part at the end. Once you're done with this stuff, you'll need to save this into a file, i.e. custom.sql and make some changes. At the very least you'll want to change the connection string and set the id and to those you use to connect to your ossim database. You may also want to change .authorizedJIDS to list s, who would be allowed to into openfire console:

Guia de Instalação do OSSIM (AlienVault Open Source SIM ) – Parte I Link for JailsonJan Blog:http://www.previsioni.com.br/jailsonjan/?p=147 Introdução O Ossim (Open Source AlienVault)


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

é um sistema de segurança detalhado que cobre do nível da deteção até um nível executivo, gerando métricas e relatórios. OSSIM é oferecido como um produto da segurança que permite que você integre em um único console todos os dispositivos e ferramentas de segurança disponíveis em sua rede, assim como a instalação de ferramentas de segurança prestigiadas de fonte aberta (open source) como Snort, OpenVas, Ntop and OSSEC. Uma vez que os eventos gerados por ferramentas e por dispositivos diferentes são coletados pelo OSSIM, o sistema executa uma avaliação de risco para cada evento e a correlação destes. Durante o processo de correlação, de uma série de testes padrões, o OSSIM gera novos eventos para detectar ataques ou problemas na sua rede. Para ar toda a informação coletada e gerada pelo sistema, o OSSIM inclui uma interface Web que nós permite configurar todo o sistema e ver o estado total da rede em tempo real. Antes de começar OSSIM é um produto constantemente em desenvolvimento. Por este motivo nós usaremos a versão mais estável do instalador do OSSIM neste guia de instalação. As versões as mais novas estão sempre disponíveis na Web no site do projeto OSSIM – http://www.AlienVault.com Finalidades deste documento A finalidade deste documento é fornecer um o a o, um guia de como instalar o OSSIM. Cobrindo conceitos básicos e uma breve explanação do papel de cada perfil que uma instalação de OSSIM pode adotar. Por que um instalador? OSSIM é um produto que integra mais de 30 ferramentas de Open Source. O sistema operacional (Linux – Debian) e muitas ferramentas internas foram modificados para melhorar seu funcionamento dentro do sistema. Isso ocorre devido ao fato dque para instalar o OSSIM do código fonte exige um pouco mais de conhecimento e muito tempo para fazer a compilação de mais de 40 ferramentas diferentes. Para simplificar o processo complexo de compilação, instalação e configuração todas estas ferramentas, a equipe de desenvolvimento distribui o instalador de OSSIM que inclui sistema operacional, todos os componentes e uma configuração poderosa e sistema a atualização. O instalador de OSSIM é baseado no sistema operacional Debian GNU/Linux e está disponível em edições de 32 bits e 64-bit, edições 32 Bits vs 64 Bits Se seu processador é de 64-bits então você pode aproveitar todo desempenho desta arquitetura.


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

Em determinadas estruturas (”backbones”), baseado na produção e no número de eventos, você pode precisar de um “hardware” capaz de ar grandes volumes de dados. A arquitetura 64-bit igualmente permite o uso de uma quantidade maior de memória física. OSSIM Operações Básicas Os seguintes processos ocorrem dentro de OSSIM: 1. As aplicações geram eventos da segurança 2. Os eventos são coletados e normalizados 3. Os eventos são enviados a um servidor central 4. Avaliação de risco 5. Correlação do evento 6. Armazenamento dos eventos 7. o aos eventos armazenados 8. o à configuração 9. Alcance as métricas (medidores) e aos relatórios 10. Informação em tempo real do status de sua rede As aplicações e os dispositivos da rede geram eventos da segurança. Estes eventos são coletados e normalizados pelo agente do OSSIM, que é o responsável por enviá-los ao servidor do OSSIM. Em uma instalação OSSIM pode-se ter quantos agentes forem necessários. Em alguns casos, se tem um agente em cada posição da rede da empresa, ou um agente dentro do DMZ ou um outro agente dedicado para coletar todos os registros do “firewall”. O agente do OSSIM inclui um jogo das ferramentas (Snort, Ntop, Ttrack, Arpwatch), para analisar o tráfego de rede à procura dos problemas e das anomalias de segurança. Para aproveitar-se desta funcionalidade do OSSIM, o agente do OSSIM deve receber todo o tráfego na rede, usando uma conexão, configurar uma porta espelhada ou usando uma porta de extensão nos dispositivos da rede. Todos os agentes de OSSIM enviam seus eventos a um único servidor de OSSIM. Este servidor carrega a avaliação de risco e a correlação. Uma vez que estes processos ocorreram, os eventos são armazenados na base de dados de OSSIM. Para ar estas informações, o OSSIM inclui uma interface gráfica (web), que pode ser usada para modificar parâmetros da configuração e para gerar o métricas e os relatórios. A interface gráfica (web), igualmente, fornecerá o o as informações, em tempo real, de um grande número de aplicações, que analisam o status global de nossa rede (Ntop, Nagios, etc). Perfis Uma vez que a instalação terminou, o OSSIM, permite mudar o perfil da instalação . Por

padrão o perfil completo será instalado automaticamente. Perfil Completo O perfil completo é uma combinação de todos os perfis em uma única máquina. Inclui a interface do sensor, um servidor, uma base de dados e uma interface gráfica (web). O sensor no perfil completo, habilitará o Snort, o OpenVas, o Ntop, o Arpwatch, o P0f e o Pads. O perfil completo é o padrão da instalação do Ossim. Sensor O Sensor é o responsável pela captura e pela normalização dos eventos. Para permitir a captura e coleção de todos os registros (log) pelo Sensor, teremos que enviar todos os eventos ao Sensor usando Syslog, ftp, samba, Snare, etc. Cada uma destas ferramentas está associada a um “plugin” no OSSIM, que define como coletar os eventos dos registros de logs. Os eventos normalizados são enviados ao servidor. Snort, Ntop, Arpwatch, P0f e Pads são igualmente habilitados no perfil do Sensor somente. Para fazer estas ferramentas úteis, nós devemos usaar uma conexão, configurar uma porta espelhada ou usar uma porta de extensão nos dispositivos da rede (geralmente no Switch). Servidor O perfil do Servidor é preparar o OSSIM (box) para coletar os registros (logs) de todos os Sensores OSSIM. Uma vez que os eventos foram processados, todas as informações são armazenadas na base de dados. O Servidor incluirá um agente de OSSIM para monitorar a segurança do sistema (Pam Unix, SSH) Banco de Dados O “Servidor de Bancos de Dados”, possui uma base de dados MySQL para armazenar os eventos, configurações e informações de inventário. Requirementos Requirementos de Hardware As exigências de hardware do OSSIM dependerão basicamente do número de eventos por segundo e da produção da rede que queremos proteger.


OSSIM

by FUDforum 2.7.7

A exigência mínima aconselhad, é ter pelo menos 2GB da ram. É possível que se tenha que aumentar a memória de RAM disponível, baseada na produção da rede, no número de eventos que o Servidor OSSIM está processando e na quantidade de dados que precisam de ser armazenados na base de dados. Para um melhor desempenho é essencial usar somente as aplicações e componentes que serão úteis em cada caso ou na sua rede. Em termos de desempenho, há uma diferença enorme entre processadores de 32 bit and 64 bit, se você estiver comprando um novo hardware, escolha o de 64-Bits. A maioria de componentes do OSSIM am “multithreading”, fazendo com que os servidores que usam os processadores de 64-Bits, obtenham uma grande melhoria no desempenho. Ao falar sobre placas de rede, você deve tentar escolher aqueles ados pelo “driver” e1000. O modelo do desenvolvimento de Open Source deste “drive” assegura a boa compatibilidade destas placas com o Debian GNU/Linux. As placas de rede de menor desempenho podem ser usadas nos OSSIM (box) para coletar eventos de outros dispositivos ou como interfaces de gerênciamento. Requerimentos de Rede A fim de apresentar o OSSIM corretamente, você deverá ter um grande conhecimento dos dispositivos da sua rede. Você terá que configurar uma porta espelhada naqueles dispositivos de rede que em esta característica. Para configurar uma porta espelhada corretamente, você terá que manter na mente que deve evitar estas duas situações: * Tráfego de rede duplicado: Isto aconteceu quando nós estamos enviando o mesmo tráfego de rede mais de uma vez em diferentes dispositivos da rede. * Tráfego de rede criptografado: Em alguns casos não tem nenhum sentido configurar uma porta espelhada naqueles dispositivos que mostram somente o tráfego criptografado (VPN, SSH), porque este tráfego não pode ser facilmente analizedo por algumas aplicações. Ainda sobre porta espelhada, nós precisamos ter endereços de IP prontos para todas os OSSIM (box). Alguns OSSIM (box), que funcionam como Sensores podem exigir mais de uma placa de rede, porque o Sensor poderá ter o à redes diferentes (Nessus, Nagios, Nmap) Como exemplo, OpenVas (exploração da vulnerabilidades), terá que ter o para alcançar as “redes alvo”, quando a varredura acontecer. Ao usar OpenVas, Nagios ou Nmap nós igualmente temos que nos certificar de que nossos “firewalls” estão configurados corretamente, permitindo o o de nossos sensores às redes ou aos servidores das “redes alvo”. Os eventos têm que ser normalizados antes de processados pelo Servidor OSSIM, o sensor

Se você tem um servidor de nomes (DNS) local em sua rede deverá ser o primeira nesta configuração. Você pode entrar com quantos servidores de nomes (DNS) que desejar. 9-Entre com um nome para o servidor do OSSIM (hostname) 10-If you are using a domain name in the computers of your network, enter the domain name 10-Se você está usando um servidores de nomes (DNS) nos computadores de sua rede, entre com as informações do servidores de nomes (DNS) 11-Selecione o fuso horário (timezone) 12-Ocorre neste momento o particionamento do disco. Selecione a primeira opção: Usar o disco inteiro. 13-Selecione “Guiado: Use a partição inteira do disco”, isto apagará todos os dados armazenados em seu disco rígido. 14 -Neste momento você escolhe se deseja armazenar tudos os arquivos da instalação em uma só partição ou em partições separadas. Selecione todos os arquivos em uma só partição. 15-Agora o instalador mostrará a partição sugerida. Aplique as mudanças e continue. 16-Todos os pacotes do software serão configurados agora. O Postfix (software de correio eletrônico) perguntará sobre a configuração do servidor de email, configure-o conforme as suas necessidades. Se você não tem um servidor de email na sua rede ou se você deseja ter um próprio no OSSIM Box, selecionamos “Site de Internet”. Se você já tem um servidor de email na sua rede, pode selecionar o “Sistema Satélite”. 17-Aceite o contrato de licência de Java. 18-Uma vez que todo o software esteja instalado e configurado (isto poderá demorar alguns minutos), o sistema pedirá a senha da raiz (senha de root). Você terá que digitar duas vezes a senha da raiz (senha de root). 19-Antes de terminar o processo de instalação, o sistema Ossim verificará se há novas versões do software disponíveis ou novas correções. É muito importante que você tenha uma conexão com a internet durante o processo de instalação, para que seu sistema possa ser atualizado.

Configuração de Rede Aquelas máquinas que rodam o OSSIM exigem um cuidado especial ao configurar a rede. Those machines running OSSIM require special care when configuring networking. A configuração de rede é definida no seguinte arquivo: /etc/network/interfaces Se a configuração de rede foi modificada, para aplicar-lhe as mudanças use o seguinte comando: /etc/init.d/networking restart Cada OSSIM Box deve ter pelo menos um endereço IP estático, assim os componentes diferentes do OSSIM podem comunicar-se entre si e o pode ter o o remoto às máquinas. Cada interface (placa de rede) com um endereço IP válido, deve ter uma entrada no arquivo /etc/network/interfaces usando o seguinte esquema:

Atualizando o OSSIM Os seguintes comandos atualizarão o sistema OSSIM: apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade; O software que atualiza o sistema, usado no instalador do OSSIM, foi projetado para assegurar-se que as versões corretas sejam usadas. Permite aos colaboradores de OSSIM bloquearem ou forçar atualizações de determinado software no sistema. Por este motivo, você nunca deve incluir repositórios de software novos em seu /etc/apt/sources.list. Esta informação é muito importante.

Ossim na versão profissional Além de conduzir o desenvolvimento de OSSIM, a AlienVault está desenvolvendo uma versão profissional “AlienVault Professional SIEM” que oferece importantes recursos para ambientes de muita demanda. A versão comercial, possui: * SEM: armazenamento de alto volume * Escalabilidade: distribuídas, hierárquicas * Desempenho: performance 30 vezes maior * Confiabilidade: Redundância e alta disponibilidade Recomendações Gerais * Em ambientes de produção é recomendado sempre usar arquiteturas de 64-bit, já que há uma grande diferença em termos de desempenho se comparados com a versão de 32 bits. * Nunca instale um Sensor de OSSIM em um ambiente virtualizado se este sensor está indo coletar enormes quantidades de tráfego de rede. Por causa da maneira que estas ferramentas da virtualização controlam as interfaces de rede virtual, uma grande quantidade do tráfego da rede é perdido, sem ser analisada. * Nunca instale softwares no OSSIM Box, que necessitem de alteração dos repositórios de Debian no arquivo “/etc/apt/sources.list”. * O OSSIM sempre terá e para a versão mais estável do Debian GNU/Linux. Quando uma versão nova de Debian for liberada os colaboradores fornecerão um guia em como atualizar o o Ossim instalado para a versão mais nova. * Não há nenhuma limitação de instalação de software que possa ser instalado nas máquinas (desde que estejam no sources.list original do Ossim), mas lembre-se que um elevado consumo de memória ou de processador (u) de algumas aplicações, podem prejudicar a performance da mesma. Como exemplo, você nunca deve instalar um ambiente desktop nas máquinas OSSIM.

Does this refer to changing the expert profile setting to sensor instead of server? Not really sure what it means to 'check on sensor', if eth0 is the configuration in the /etc/network/interfaces, then would this ossim_setup.conf already be a working configuration? Also mentioned in step 4: Quote: Check sensor's interface(s) in /etc/network/interfaces so it's configuration is consistent with /etc/ossim/ossim_setup.conf, one as default, other set in promiscuous mode if it have more than 1 interface I assume this means if you have 2 interfaces in the same network, use 1 as default management and 1 as promiscuous for snort etc.? Otherwise if you have multiple interfaces in different subnets wouldn't you want it promiscuous on all interfaces? Thanks, Trevor

While you are there you can for a Feed Code as well. the file to your OSSIM server using S.I ed it to the /home directory. 2. Update OSSIM run: /ossim-update. Answer "yes" to all questions 3. Disable the firewall run: ossim-setup go to Change General Setting --> Configure Firewall. Highlight "No" and hit space. Hit OK and then "Save $ Exit". This step is not necessarily needed if you have correctly configured your firewall. 4. Install NESSUS run: dpkg -i /home/Nessus-4.0.2-debian5_i386 5. Update Plugins run /opt/nessus/bin/nessus-fetch --

. Replace  with your HomeFeed or ProfessionalFeed code.

                   Hello jchristmas, Thank you for your comments. I run this tutorial on a clean OSSIM 2.2.1 install and I noticed something similar to what you did. If I run a scan job and try to open the report that appears next to my scan under the "scan jobs" tab, I have a much different report from the one under the "vulnerabilities" tab. The "scan jobs" tab report though is the same as the one under the "reports" tab. The report under "vulnerabilities" tab didn't have nearly as many vulnerabilities as the one under "scan jobs" and "reports" tab, which were much more spread out (serious, high,medium,info etc). My guess is that the reports under the "scan jobs" and "reports" tabs are actually the "raw" Nessus scans with just the Alienvault logo in them. The report under "vulnerabilities" tab though, are processed by OSSIM. Over there OSSIM actually presents what vulnerabilities it thinks were present (based on the way it processes Nessus reports). What's weird though is that OSSIM is generating as many tickets as vulnerabilities found in the report under "scan jobs". Can you check to see if there are any differences on the various reports available? Also, could you run a credentiated scan towards an unpatched pc (e.g. windows xp) just so you know you will normal get a lengthy report.

                   ". This is very ironic because a few windows over there is a bunch of tickets oppened that say "Vulnerability:Unknown". Could someone shed some light on why OSSIM isn't actually intergratting the NESSUS scans? Because the way I see it right now, it NESSUS is just a way to generate reports. Something that I can do by installing nessus on a windows xp machine and run the scan from there? I think the vulnerability management capability of OSSIM is very important to its general purpose as a Security Information Management System. fable

I am trying to use a nessus 4 professional feed on a ubuntu box that I installed the ossim agent on. If I click in the vulnerabilities tab and select threat database I show almost all the vulnerabilities listed under critical... Tried to update the plugins again and didnt fix it. The new problem I just started to notice is that even though I updated the settings to point to the new nessus scanner it does not want to show up as an option to scan with. So I checked things out in the database and sure enough in the vuln_nessus_servers the new server isnt showing up. I could add it manually I suppose but I wanted to know where it was suppose to be added from i.e. script or web interface that inserts it into the mysql table. I am actually thinking I will rebuild all my systems soon and re-install them all virtually on each box so that I can make snapshots as well as have another group of "testing servers" that I can use before upgrading to production. But I want to make sure that before I do that everything else is in good working order. I also can't do it until roughly may due to some project obligations I have. So DK or Jamie or anyone else have any idea why its not inserting the nessus server in there and also any idea why its not doing what I am expecting? I can work with you more outside of the forums if you guys like. Thanks,

I've installed Nessus 4.0.2 and yes I got same problems like any of you got there. Here's the problems : 1. Threats Database is showing Serious risk there (value == 7) 2. Cross Correlation with SNORT is not working because of some issue that i'll explain below. 3. Assets info shows no vulnerabilities there. The positive issue is scan jobs and results (at vulnerability --> scan jobs) show us actual info :) About the problems, here I try to find out why (from updateplugins.pl) : 1. Risk level value is 7 (all serious) is caused by this : if ( !defined( $plugin_crisk ) || $plugin_crisk eq "" ) { $plugin_crisk = "NULL"; } my $risk=7; $risk=1 if ($pdescription =~ m/Risk [fF]actor\s*:\s*(\\n)*Serious/s);

                    see, just like what i've said at first..in this table, i just got 11 (eleven) entries, so i can do nothing except manually insert reference from vuln_nessus_plugins to this plugin_sid :( (which should've be done by script "update_nessus_ids.pl". Any info from developers? Oh I forgot, I also realized about the "alienvault_feed_sync.sh" script, have tried it but failed.

                     Subject: OSSIM integration with an existing OCS Inventory install Posted by westie5017 on Mon, 21 Jun 2010 16:37:05 GMT View Forum Message <> Reply to Message Good Afternoon, I hope you are well. We have an existing OCS Inventory install that has data on all of our existing assets. It is also integrated with our CMDB System (CMDBuild) and ITSM system. I'm wanting to deploy an OSSIM server (initially in a development lab) so I can test the system and prepare it for a production environment. Is it possible to integrate OSSIM with an existing OCS Inventory installation? Be it via an API, Database synchronisation or by simply point the OSSIM to the existing build?
