BCS Information Security SG (ISSG) – Practical Network Forensics

Objective: To show working examples of network attacks, how they can be detected and analysed.

Target Audience: If you are a network manager, a network supervisor and your job is network security, your job depends on keeping the bad guys out; this is the one-day event for you.

What will happen on the day? The first part of the day will include presentations from people who have investigated network forensic incidents as part of their jobs – not sample scenarios, theoretical problems or rumours – but real situations that these people have tackled first hand.  The second part of the event will use a demonstration network to simulate hacking attacks of the types described earlier in the day.  You will see how these attacks can be investigated and analysed.

Open Source software tools will be used and demonstrated to capture and replay incidents, filter and analyse network traffic, and create a time-line of information on a compromised system.

Of course, nobody would dare to attack your network but just in case, this event is all about being forewarned and forearmed.

Who is leading the day?: Alan Woodroffe is a long serving ISSG Committee member, a Fellow of the BCS, a Chartered Engineer and a SANS GIAC Certified Intrusion Analyst (SANS GCIA). He has worked with a number of large organisations, including central government, to keep the bad guys out!
