1 Tools to Protect Against Identity Theft Mario A. Garcia Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi SNIDJ 2/8/2007 1
2 Identity Theft - Definition Identity theft, Web spoofing, identity fraud are terms used to refer to crimes in which a cyber-criminal wrongfully obtains and uses another person's personal information in some way that involves fraud or deception. Identity theft is becoming one of the most common and attractive forms of theft in the world. It has affected millions of people in recent years. 2
3 Identity Theft How to Cyber-criminals can gain access to personal information in many different ways. dumpster diving, social engineering, scamming people into giving personal information to them. hack into databases that contain people s information, abuse the access that they have been given through their employer, illegally collect personal information that is entered into a computer by the user. One of the most common attacks used by cyber-criminals is to scam people into giving up their personal information by deceiving individuals that they work for a legitimate business. 3
4 Identity Theft Facts The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reported that about 10 million Americans were affected by identity theft. The cost to victims was approximately five billion dollars. According to the Anti- Phishing Working Group (APWG), 2,870 phishing sites appeared in March 2005, a 28% increase per month since July A survey sponsored by TRUSTe found 70% of the respondents had visited a phishing site; over 15% admitted to having provided personal data to a phishing site; US consumers have lost an estimated $500 million as a result of these attacks. 4
5 Identity Theft Facts The US Secret Service and the San Francisco Electronic Crimes Task Force reported that an average of 30 attack sites are detected each day. The total dollar losses are estimated at more than $54 million compared to $17 million for A majority of these fraud complaints are intrusions, auction fraud, credit card/debit fraud, and computer intrusion. 15,244 unique phishing attacks and 7,197 unique phishing sites were reported in December 2005, with 121 legitimate brands being hijacked. 5
6 Characteristics of Attacks Logos. The spoof site uses logos found on the honest site to imitate its appearance. Suspicious urls. Spoof sites are located on servers that have no relationship with the honest site. The spoof site s url may contain the honest site s url as a substring ( or may be similar to the honest url ( 6
7 Characteristics of Attacks IP addresses are sometimes used to disguise the host name ( Others marks to obscure their host names ( Contain suspicious usernames in their urls ( 7
8 Characteristics of Attacks User input. All spoof sites contain messages to fool the user into entering sensitive information, such as password, social security number, etc. Short lived. Most spoof sites are available for only a few hours or days just enough time for the attacker to spoof a high enough number of users. 8
9 Characteristics of Attacks Copies. Attackers copy html from the honest site and make minimal changes. Two consequences are: (i) some spoof pages actually contain links to images (e.g. logos and buttons) on the honest site, rather than storing copies, (ii) the names of fields and html code remain as on the honest site. 9
10 Characteristics of Attacks Sloppiness or lack of familiarity with English. Many spoof pages have silly misspellings, grammatical errors, and inconsistencies. In the Best Buy scam, the fake web page listed a telephone number with a Seattle area code for a Staten Island, NY, mailing address. HTTPS is uncommon. Most spoof web sites do not use https even if the honest site does. This simplifies setting up the spoof site. 10
11 Characteristics of Attacks Most phishing attacks trick users into submitting their personal information using a web form. The appearance of a web site and its web forms are easy to spoof. 11
12 Characteristics of Attacks A web site can control what it looks like in a user s browser, so a site s appearance does not reliably reflect the site s true identity. Users tend to decide site identity based on appearance, e.g., This site looks exactly like the PayPal site that I have been to before. So it must be a PayPal site. 12
13 Characteristics of Attacks Web forms are used for submitting insensitive data as well as sensitive data. Even though SSL encryption can indicate to the browser that the input data is sensitive, phishing sites do not use SSL and the browser fails to effectively visually differentiate an SSL connection from a non-ssl one. 13

18 Visa Identity Theft Analysis Even though the spoofed website looks different than the real site, it is still extremely convincing. The design of the page is clean and professional. In addition, the address bar is forged, aligning perfectly on the page and masking the actual URL of the page. Both pages have an address starting with 18
19 Visa Identity Theft Analysis The real URL of the page is visible in the properties page. The only other visible phishing clue is the missing padlock icon in the right part of the status bar, which is inconsistent with the https in the forged address bar. In addition, the page does not contain any login screen. 19
20 Visa Identity Theft Analysis If the link is further examined, it turns out that it leads to the following URL: ' /.verified/'. This is a URL that is really on the visa.com page! It turns out that the phishers have used a redirect page on the visa.com site to redirect to the phish server.
21 Visa Identity Theft Analysis To make the things even more convincing, the site checks the credit card number using a commonly available algorithm. This does not require or reveal any information about the bank account behind the CC, but it would reject a random bogus number, which could make the potential victim trust the site 21
22 22
23 23
24 Wells Fargo Bank At first glance, it looks identical to the real Wells Fargo web page. The forged address bar is perfectly overwriting the real URL. However, the lock icon in the lower right corner of the page is missing, which contradicts with the https displayed in the address bar. In addition, the true URL of the page can be seen by opening the properties page, which turns out to be 24

30 Ameritrade Online Application This was first seen on April 22, The technology used for this was quite simple: merely a single-stage phish. This trick used the domain name, similar to the legitimate Ameritrade website, and tried to obtain the username/password for ameritrade.com accounts. 30
31 31
32 32
33 33
34 Ameritrade Online Application The only differences reported of this site are: the domain name being relatively close, the missing security certificate, and the failure to see HTTPS on the URL. As soon as the false site had both text boxes filled, it would redirect the user to the real site. 34
35 Washington Mutual Bank This was first seen on February 24, The e- mail overall is believable and the redirected URL is cleverly chosen and quite close to the actual URL address of WAMU. 35

38 Stronger Password Authentication Using Browser Extensions Blake Ross, Collin Jackson, Nick Miyake, Dan Boneh, John Mitchell Stanford University SNIDJ 2/8/
39 Password Phishing Problem Bank A pwd A pwd A Fake Site User cannot reliably identify fake sites Captured password can be used at target site 39
40 Common Password Problem high security site Bank A pwd A pwd B = vulnerable site pwd A Site B Phishing attack or break-in at site B reveals pwd at A Server-side solutions will not keep pwd safe Solution: Strengthen with client-side support 40
41 Our Solution: PwdHash Lightweight browser extension Impedes password theft Invisible to server Invisible to user Pwd Hashing Pwd Prefix 41
42 Password Hashing hash(pwd A, BankA) Bank A pwd A = pwd B hash(pwd B, SiteB) Site B Generate a unique password per site HMAC fido:123 (banka.com) Q7a+0ekEXb HMAC fido:123 (siteb.com) OzX2+ICiqc E-LEADER", HONG KONG /8/
43 The Spoofing Problem JavaScript can display password fields or dialogs: Unhashed password sent to attacker in clear 43
44 Password Prefix Original pwd should never be visible to web page OzX2+ICiqc Site B 44
45 Password Prefix: How it works Normal operation: Prefix in password field ********** abcdefgh fido:123 HMAC fido:123 (siteb.com) Q7a+0ekEXb Abnormal operation: Prefix in non-password field Can just ignore the prefix and not hash Remind user not to enter password 45
46 Why use Password Prefix? Protection mechanism built in to password Does not rely on user to make a decision Same prefix works for everyone Distinguishes secure passwords from normal passwords social security numbers PINs Only use it when you want to 46
47 Other Trusted Pwd Interfaces Password prefix Starts with Secure attention sequence Trusted image or phrase: Passmark DSS 47
48 Other Challenges Password Reset Internet Cafes Dictionary Attacks Spyware, DNS poisoning (no protection) Other issues (described in the paper) Choosing salt for hash Encoding hashed password Additional attacks and defenses 48
49 Password Reset After install, PwdHash can t protect existing pwds Only passwords starting are secure User can choose where to use PwdHash User must enter old password unhashed into password reset page Pwd Prefix makes it easy Old passwords won t be accidentally hashed New, secure passwords are automatically hashed Starts 49
50 Internet Cafes Users cannot install software at Internet Cafes. Would not be a problem if PwdHash were universally available Interim solution: A secure web site for remote hashing, e.g. Hash is computed using JavaScript Server never sees password Resulting hash is copied into clipboard Can also be used as a standalone password generator Internet Explorer E-LEADER", HONG KONG /8/ Firefox
51 Dictionary attacks After phishing attack or break-in to low security site, attacker can repeatedly guess password and check hash. Succeeds on 15% of passwords (unlike 100% today) Less effective on longer, stronger passwords Solution: better authentication protocol (SPEKE, SRP, etc.) Requires server-side changes Defense: user specifies a global pwd to strengthen all pwd hashes Creates a new pwd management problem for shared machines Defense: slow hash function (Halderman, Waters, Felten 05) Increases time of dictionary attack aardvark, aback, abacus, abandon 51
52 PwdHash: Try it out Prototype for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox Defends against spoofing Invisible to user Invisible to server Complementary to other anti-phishing solutions Only use it when you want to 52
