Article - Tunneling out of Corporate Networks

Post by foldingstock » Tue Dec 15, 2009 5:36 am

Being a user and fan of OpenBSD, I often check undeadly.org, an unofficial OpenBSD journal site. Recently, a five-part article was written by Mark Uemura, titled "Tunneling out of Corporate Networks." These articles detail some of the dangers of corporate networking as well as preventative maintenance that can be done. Mark did a good job of showing the other side of networking, where the biggest threat is not always what is coming into the network, but what is going out from within. I found these articles to be very informative.

It is an interesting read for anyone in this field or anyone wanting to learn more about networking. Although this is an OpenBSD article, the concepts are not OpenBSD-specific.

Tunneling out of Corporate Networks - Part 1, Intro to tunneling
Tunneling out of Corporate Networks - Part 2, Malware tunneling out of corporate networks
Tunneling out of Corporate Networks - Part 3, Our quest for a solution
Tunneling out of Corporate Networks - Part 4, Logs, collection and analysis
Tunnelling out of corporate networks - Part 5, The end of our quest

I hope you enjoy these article.

Neat articles. It gives some interesting insight to coporate security methods.
My effort to help you will never exceed your effort to explain the problem.

I am a noob when it comes to stuff like this so I found the articles to be very interesting and helpful. I am always looking for new techniques for tunneling out my school's firewall that maybe less detectable or faster.
