Know Your Enemy: A Forensic Analysis This paper is a continuation of the Know Your Enemy series. The first three papers covered the tools and tactics of the black-hat community. This paper, the fourth of the series, studies step by step a successful attack of a system. However, instead of focusing on the tools and tactics used, we will focus on how we learned what happened and pieced the information together. The purpose is to give you the forensic skills necessary to analyze and learn on your own the threats your organization faces. There is also an online, interactive version of this paper published by MSNBC.

FTP Attack Case Study Part II: the Lessons This article presents part II of a case study related to a company network server compromise. Lessons on designing and implementing security are drawn from the case. Computer forensics investigation was undertaken and results are presented. The article provides an opportunity to follow the trail of incident response for a real case. We will organize the case study based on the prevention-detection-response metaphor. For example, how to prevent future incidents of that kind? What technological means do we need to detect them? How to effectively respond to them?
