According to the research paper, the team used Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) to evaluate the data for threats. The model used to train the malware detection system provided accuracy as high as 99.82% during testing.
How the Raspberry Pi USB Malware Scanner Works
The end result is a system with a malware-detection accuracy of 99.82%, which could prove invaluable to malware analysts. It's also going to prove to be a nightmare for malware writers as they attempt to figure out how to hide their malicious code from an EM scanner without being able to detect its presence.
While the Raspberry Pi (opens in new tab) used in this project was trained using both safe and malicious data sets, the researchers also used Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) to evaluate the data for threats. In the end, the model used to train IRISA's malware detection system was up to 99.82 percent effective during testing.
While their detection system is far from being commercially deployed, it could potentially make things much more difficult for malware writers (opens in new tab) as they will also now need to figure out a way to hide their malicious code from EM scanners.
We all need to know what devices are on our networks. For sites with sensitive information, such as financial services offices, it might be important to know when a new device signs on at the moment it joins the network. More advanced than many others, the Networkscan Raspberry Pi automatic network device scanner sends an alert to your phone if a new Bluetooth device is seen, or a new system joins your network.
Using an oscilloscope (Picoscope 6407) and H-Field probe with a Raspberry Pi 2B, researchers were able to use certain electromagnetic waves to find malware on any hardware. The team used Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) to assess malware threats.
19) USB Backdoor into Air-Gapped Hosts - attack used by the Fanny malware, developed by the Equation Group (codename for the NSA). Attack uses USB hidden storage to store preset commands tha map computers in air-gapped networks. Info on networks is saved back to the USB flash drive's hidden storage.
With my browser sandboxed using Firetools, my files protected with a high-quality antivirus scanner, and the vast majority of my new software coming from my Ubuntu package manager, my machine has been made effectively malware-proof.
Maybe you think "Why should I protect my pivate network? I've got no critical information on my computer, no sensitive data". Are your emails really public? Don't you have some photos you don't want to upload to Facebook, because they're private. Do you really don't care if you computer is hijacked and used to attack other PCs or act as a spam server?I don't think you're so careless but maybe you thInk, that setting up a secure network environment is expensive and really difficult. Don't be afraid in this article we will see how to create a network gateway with a firewall, DHCP and DNS server, and a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS), entirely based on a Raspberry Pi. After this instructable we will have a small security system with the following features:- Enforce network traffic policies- Ensure that abnormal packets does not get out or in our network- DHCP server to distribute network parameters to your LAN- DNS cache/server to speed up DNS requests and filter out bad DNS queries- NIDS to detect malicious traffic, such as malware or vulnerability exploits- Central network monitoring node to watch and debug network trafficSome may now say "Hey wait, the Raspberry hs only one network port, how should this act as a gateway?". This is done by a small trick. Of course you could buy an USB to ethernet device to get a second network card. But to keep it as simple as possible we just use the Raspi as our gateway, this works really nice. Traffic flows in both ways trought it. Of course it requires some additional configuration, but it's not a problem.
Between intrusive ads, invasive trackers, and vicious malware, many techies and homelab enthusiasts are advancing theirnetworks' security and speed with a tiny computer and a powerful piece of software: Pi-hole.
What I would do is set up the scanner in such a way that each one has a prefix, so whatever code is read, it will always have a prefix i.e. A000001, A000002, B00001, B00002, so all you'll have to do is use a string function to know that all codes that begin with "A" come from scanner A and all that begin with "B" come from scanner B. Regardless of what programming language you use. this works perfect with Motorola/Zebra/Honeywell scanners..
USB sticks or drives are used by a lot of people and also by employees in companies. They allow for easy and convenient exchange and transport of data, which makes them indispensable in many places. On the other hand, they also introduce unknown elements into a network. Additionally, a USB drive does not need to circumvent the virtual perimeter defences of the company. Instead, it goes directly directly into a user workstation. All of those factors makes them a conventient attack tool for cybercriminals. They use "malicious" USB sticks that contains a predefined attack script. This in turn allows them to access and copy users' data, gain access to their keyboard and screen which allows them to see everything they do or eventually to encrypt their data in exchange for a ransom. The most commonly known rogue USB drive is the "Rubber Ducky" drives (see below). But the biggest problem is that USB drives can also be a vector for all types of other malware, which has far reaching implications. Those include, but are not limited to, sabotaging production lines as well as the installation of all manner of malicious programs to leverage remote espionage or encrypting data for ransom.
And there are some python scripts needs to be upload as a payload and inject to the target system by using the raspberry pico pi and use it as a key logger. All we need is a physical access to the victims device and need a key logging malware.
Physical protection: By blocking the USB ports in the BIOS and authorize only the devices escalation, DDoS attacks or malware infections of the host computers which could then spread to target entire networks. 2ff7e9595c
