You could also setup a host IPS on the affected server. OSSEC is an open source HIPS that will also monitor logs and alert in real time when defined events occur. I've been faced with similar situations over the years. The thing to get management to understand is that the network and servers are property of the company, not the vendor. The vendor must comply with proper security defined by your IT dept, not by the vendor. Keith Sent from my iPad On Jul 2, 2012, at 2:30 AM, "Matan Hirom" <matan () hirom co il> wrote:
Hey alex, First, Try to audit specific logon events on the DC's. you might want to use an automatic task to collect the logs. That way you can see what the AD user have been up to. Second, what firewall do they have ? did they established a log server for it? If so, try to correlate between the FW log and the AD log. In a future look, you might want to suggest your client to establish "Honey Pots" over the network. For example - monitoring an AD user with Domain Admins permission and a weak password. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Alex Dolan Sent: Monday, July 02, 2012 10:02 AM To: security-basics () securityfocus com Subject: Unknown user found in AD and SonicWall In a recent audit of one of our clients networks, I came across a new user in active directory, and a dial in access through the firewall. It was " Syn IT development access" The Program, Syn, is a legitimate program used by the client, so we called the developers and they said the port is used on only special occasions, none of which the client had ever needed. What I want to set up is a trap-and-trace for the user, see where they are connecting from and what they're getting up to. Any suggestions on how to do this?
