Data Obfuscation:  Имитация протокола

Adversaries may impersonate legitimate protocols or web service traffic to disguise command and control activity and thwart analysis efforts. By impersonating legitimate protocols or web services, adversaries can make their command and control traffic blend in with legitimate network traffic. Adversaries may impersonate a fake SSL/TLS handshake to make it look like subsequent traffic is SSL/TLS encrypted, potentially interfering with some security tooling, or to make the traffic look like it is related with a trusted entity.

Примеры процедур

Название Описание
Lazarus Group

Lazarus Group malware also uses a unique form of communication encryption known as FakeTLS that mimics TLS but uses a different encryption method, potentially evading SSL traffic inspection/decryption.(Citation: Novetta Blockbuster)(Citation: Novetta Blockbuster Destructive Malware)(Citation: McAfee Lazarus Resurfaces Feb 2018)(Citation: McAfee GhostSecret)

Cobalt Strike

Cobalt Strike can mimic the HTTP protocol for C2 communication, while hiding the actual data in either an HTTP header, URI parameter, the transaction body, or appending it to the URI.(Citation: Cobalt Strike Manual 4.3 November 2020)

BADCALL

BADCALL uses a FakeTLS method during C2.(Citation: US-CERT BADCALL)

KeyBoy

KeyBoy uses custom SSL libraries to impersonate SSL in C2 traffic.(Citation: PWC KeyBoys Feb 2017)

Higaisa

Higaisa used a FakeTLS session for C2 communications.(Citation: Zscaler Higaisa 2020)

TAINTEDSCRIBE

TAINTEDSCRIBE has used FakeTLS for session authentication.(Citation: CISA MAR-10288834-2.v1 TAINTEDSCRIBE MAY 2020)

Bankshot

Bankshot generates a false TLS handshake using a public certificate to disguise C2 network communications.(Citation: US-CERT Bankshot Dec 2017)

HARDRAIN

HARDRAIN uses FakeTLS to communicate with its C2 server.(Citation: US-CERT HARDRAIN March 2018)

SUNBURST

SUNBURST masqueraded its network traffic as the Orion Improvement Program (OIP) protocol.(Citation: FireEye SUNBURST Backdoor December 2020)

InvisiMole

InvisiMole can mimic HTTP protocol with custom HTTP “verbs” HIDE, ZVVP, and NOP.(Citation: ESET InvisiMole June 2018)(Citation: ESET InvisiMole June 2020)

FakeM

FakeM C2 traffic attempts to evade detection by resembling data generated by legitimate messenger applications, such as MSN and Yahoo! messengers. Additionally, some variants of FakeM use modified SSL code for communications back to C2 servers, making SSL decryption ineffective.(Citation: Scarlet Mimic Jan 2016)

FALLCHILL

FALLCHILL uses fake Transport Layer Security (TLS) to communicate with its C2 server.(Citation: US-CERT FALLCHILL Nov 2017)

Okrum

Okrum mimics HTTP protocol for C2 communication, while hiding the actual messages in the Cookie and Set-Cookie headers of the HTTP requests.(Citation: ESET Okrum July 2019)

Network Intrusion Prevention

Use intrusion detection signatures to block traffic at network boundaries.

Обнаружение

Analyze network data for uncommon data flows (e.g., a client sending significantly more data than it receives from a server). Processes utilizing the network that do not normally have network communication or have never been seen before are suspicious. Analyze packet contents to detect communications that do not follow the expected protocol behavior for the port that is being used.(Citation: University of Birmingham C2)
