[AusNOG] Analysis of the Carna Botnet (Internet Census 2012)

[Parth Shukla]

Hi All,

 

I'm hoping most of you have had a chance to at least have a quick look at my
presentation by now. 

 

I'm now after technical contacts for three of the four most prominent
Telco's that are present in the Australian data (slide 44 of my
presentation). I am hoping to work with someone fairly technical in helping
deal with the problem of vulnerable devices through default logins on telnet
on their infrastructure.

 

I'm after (generic and/or non-generic) technical and security focused
contact details for: TPG, Optus and iiNet. 

 

The IP ranges for these three and Telstra represent 75% of compromised
devices in Australia. I already have generic email for Telstra which I'll
use but if someone here form Telstra wants to contact me directly please
feel free.

 

Could someone from these three please contact me off-list? If someone has
good contacts in any of them, could you either a) forward my email to them
asking them to contact me or b) email me their contact details off-list?

 

I will be providing them with the part of the data that is relevant to their
network.

 

Cheers,

Parth

Dear All,

 

I have made my presentation on the Carna Botnet freely available for view
and/or download: http://bit.ly/auscertcarna

 

This presentation is on the Compromised Devices of the Carna Botnet (also
known as Internet Census 2012). This analysis is done from data obtained
directly from the researcher. The data used is NOT publicly available for
download.

 

This was recently presented at the AusCERT Conference 2013. Info:
http://conference.auscert.org.au/conf2013/speaker_Parth_Shukla.html

 

This presentation is freely available for viewing and downloading as I wish
to spread awareness of the issues raised as a result of the Carna Botnet.

 

I am sending this email as I suspect many of you will find the contents of
this presentation interesting. Apologies to those who are subscribed to
multiple mailing lists and are receiving this email multiple times as a
