3. Screen exits
» Audit logs; Ticket needed for exit
4. Deflect offenders
» Honey pots; Segregate offenders
5. Control tools & weapons

Phishing Case study
Examples of the 25 techniques
 Increase effort
» 1. Target Hardening : Train users to be vigilant
» 2. Control access to facilities : Control inbox & account
 Reduce rewards
» 11. Conceal targets : Conceal the email address
» 14. Disrupt markets : Control Mule recruitment
 Remove excuses
» 22. Post Instructions : “No phishing”
16
Cyber-crime Science
1. Target Hardening
 Training: Anti-phishing Phil
 http://cups.cs.cmu.edu/antiphishing_phil/new/
17
Cyber-crime Science
How well does training work?
 515 volunteers out of 21,351 CMU staff+stud.
» 172 in the control group, no training
» 172 single training, day 0 training
» 171 double training, day 0 and day 14 training
 3 legitimate + 7 spearphish emails in 28 days
 No real harvest of ID

Cyber-crime Science
Good but could be better
 On day 0 about 50% of participants fell
» Constant across demographic
» Control group remains constant
» Single training reduces clicks
» Multiple training reduces clicks more
 People click within 8 hours of receiving email
 Room for improvement:
» Participants were self selected...
» No indication that this reduces crime...

2. Control access to facilities
 The target’s online banking site
» Two factor authentication (TAN via SMS, gadget)

Cyber-crime Science
11. Conceal targets
 The victim’s email address
» Use Disposable email address – Clumsy
 The victim’s credentials
» Fill the database of the phishers with traceable data

22. Post Instructions
 The bank’s website
» Post notice that active anti phishing measures are
being taken... – Do banks do this? Would this work?
Phishers
will be
prosecuted

Anti-phishing research is risky
 Crawling social network site violates
terms of service – use api properly
 Copyright prohibits cloning web sites –
work with the target, change the law
 Confusing trademarks damages good
name of target – idem
 Phishing is illegal in California – avoid
 Make sure that your research is not in
any way linked to commercial activities!

Results
 Social engineering works
» 30 of 47 attempts with social engineering succeeded
» 1 of 15 attempts without social engineering succeeded
 Managers more likely to prevent attack
than the target
 Offender masquerading as ICT staff twice
as likely to be successful

Conclusions
 Crime Science approach:
» Might have avoided experimental flaws
» Might have come up with new ideas
» Would have looked at crime prevention
 How to bridge the gap between crime
science and information security?
 An ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of cure
