COM398 Systems Security

60% OF THE TOTAL MARK

Release Date: 04th March 2024

Submission Date: 3rd May 2024 (12:00 (Noon) UK time)

Date returned with feedback: Within twenty working days after the submission deadline.

In submitting your assignment, you are agreeing to the following declaration of ownership:

I declare that this is all my own work and does not contain unreferenced material copied from any

other source. I have read the University’s policy on plagiarism and understand the definition of plagiarism.

If it is shown that material has been plagiarised, or I have otherwise attempted to obtain an unfair

advantage for myself or others, I understand that I may face sanctions in accordance with the policies

and procedures of the University. A mark of zero may be awarded and the reason for that mark will be

recorded on my file.

University policy on plagiarism is available here.

CW2 is an individual coursework which is worth 60% of the total coursework mark for this module.

The successful completion of CW2 will address the following learning outcomes:

? Develop practical prototypes to experiment with and reinforce core systems security

concepts.

? Illustrate a comprehension of the key issues and principles underlying modern security in

computing systems.

? Characterise the threats faced by computing systems, applications and systems; and

examine the role of security risks assessment and management in IT.

This coursework component requires students to research, write and make a presentation on the topic of

traffic analysis during a DoS / DDoS attack using Wireshark. This element would require each student to

prepare PowerPoint slides (10-15) and vodcast of the student presenting the slides. The vodcast should

be a maximum of 15 minutes long (vodcast exceeding the maximum limit will be penalised according to

the following scheme).

COM398SUST

15 minutes + 10% No penalty

15 minutes + >10% - 20% reduction in the total mark by 5%

15 minutes + >20% - 30% reduction in the total mark by 10%

15 minutes + >30% - 40% reduction in the total mark by 15%

15 minutes + >40% - 50% reduction in the total mark by 20%

15 minutes +>50% The maximum total mark achievable is 40%

This assessment component is designed to encourage students to reflect critically on the fundamentals of

systems security; and relate these fundamental concepts to developments within the field, and to realworld practical examples.

The students should submit the PPT they presented along with the video to show his / her ability to carry

out research on the CW topic.

This coursework component requires you to prepare (see also notes 1 & 2, and the coursework

preparation, submission and provision of feedback sections below) a video-recorded PPT

presentation and the PPT file (video + PPT slides) on traffic analysis using Wireshark. In this

coursework, you will be only considering the TCP/IP protocols for the analysis. Students will have

to log their experience (including any Wireshark based visualisation), observations and analysis

of the captured network traffic in a PPT document describing the TCP/IP protocol suit, and

addressing some specific points related to the provided Wireshark traffic file (PCAP file). The PPT

document and presentation may include (but not limited to) and address the following points:

1. An explanation of the TCP/IP protocols suit including:

a) The Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and the

difference between the two protocols

b) The Internet Protocol (IP)

c) The Difference between TCP and IP

d) The work of the TCP 3-Way Handshake Process.

2. Describe and contrast the Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS)

attacks, and their sub-types.

3. In the provided PCAP file, identify the type of the attack; any of your observations and analysis

of the traffic should be justified and explained by adding suitable Wireshark snapshots (or

any suitable Wireshark trace visualisation approach that you can embed in your presentation

/ video)

4. What is the IP address of the suspected attacker in the PCAP file? Justify and explain?

COM398SUST

5. Reflecting on the detected attack(s), you should add in your conclusion the possible context

/ cause(s) that allowed such attack(s) to take place; and countermeasure recommendations.

You should prepare your PPT document and presentation in such a way that it may be understood

by and useful to a fictitious group of students taking a course in computing and who may be

joining placement employers.

Although you have the freedom to adopt and follow your own presentation plan and structure,

the expectation, however, is that there should be an ‘Introduction’ in which you should cover the

TCP/IP protocols suit from which you can elaborate on the DoS and DDoS as in the points above.

The body of the report should be divided and partitioned into sections and any appropriate

visualization means should be used (e.g snapshots).

Your presentation should be evidence-based and supported by relevant and up-to-date

references and links. Sources should include textbooks, academic web sites, manufacturers’ web

sites, RFCs, white papers and academic literature (conferences and journals). You may use your

own selected referencing style.

Note 1: You can use data from such sources as evidence but you need to express this in your own

words. Plagiarism will not be tolerated and will be dealt with according to University policy:

https://www.ulster.ac.uk/student/exams/cheating-and-plagiarism. It is inappropriate to make a

presentation based on sources which are not listed.

Note 2: You should demonstrate good knowledge and understanding of the topics and points of

your presentation; and express them with high effectiveness, conciseness and succinctness.

When preparing your presentation, you should make sure to include only the most relevant

references.

Coursework preparation, submission and provision of feedback:

This coursework should be returned as an electronic submission by the due date specified above.

University regulations require that late submissions attract a mark of zero and will be rigorously

applied, without exception. If you have extenuating circumstances, you should complete an EC1

form according to your course rules; forms are found on your course website – your year tutor

and course director can advise.

? What should be returned is file 1) a copy of the PPT document used as the basis of your

presentation (in this case your researched material / script should either be embedded in

the notes section or appended to the end of your PPT document), file 2) the video (in a

suitable format, e.g. mp4, you may also use Panopto etc – for a Panopto submission,

please refer to the material on the module page). These files should be put saved in the

COM398SUST

same folder which is then compressed (zipped); the obtained ZIP file must be uploaded

using the CW2 Submission link in the module webpage on Cloud Campus.

You should also take note of the following:

? Please ensure the filename of the submitted project folder archive is given as YourBNumber_CW (i.e., B0011_CW2-PPT and B0011_CW2-VODCAST).

? As it may be expected that the file to be submitted can be of a substantial size, you are

advised to attempt your submission early to avoid any IT related issues.

? Feedback will be provided within 20 working days after submission by the date shown

above. Feedback can take the form of comments and a mark as shown herewith:

Appendix A

Wireshark is an open-source tool used for capturing and analysing network traffic at a very granular level. Wireshark shows packet details captured

from different network sources, and breaks down the traffic into the individual layers of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) model (e.g. the

data link, network, transport, and application layers). Wireshark uses display filters to highlight and focus the analysis on the interesting

packets(Orebaugh et al., 2006, Chappell and Combs, 2010). For this CW component, the MC provides a single PCAP file that includes a network

activity. Such file content is to be analysed (the students are not allowed to analyse any other PCAP files as part of this assignment to explain a

Dos / DDos attack; however they are free to use any other PCAP files or resources in order to complete their presentation; e.g. students are at

liberty of using any resources to highlight any TCP, IP or any protocol’s activity using Wireshark for instance)
