7MS #147: DIY Hosted Mutillidae

In this episode I talk about how to build a cheap hosted Mutillidae server to safely hack away on while keeping other Internet prowlers out. Here are the basic commands to run to lock down the Digital Ocean droplet's iptables firewall:

*Flush existing rules*

**sudo iptables -F**

*Allow all concurrent connections*

**sudo iptables -A INPUT -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT**

*Allow specific IPs/hosts to access port 80*

**sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s F.Q.D.N --dport 80 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT**

*Allow specific IPs/hosts to access port 22*

**sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s F.Q.D.N --dport 22 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT**

*Block all other traffic:*

**sudo iptables -P INPUT DROP**

*Provide the VPS loopback access:*

**sudo iptables -I INPUT 1 -i lo -j ACCEPT**

*Install iptables-persistent to ensure rules survive a reboot:*

**sudo apt-get install iptables-persistent**

*Start iptables-persistent service*

**sudo service iptables-persistent start**

*If you make iptables changes after this and they don't seem to stick, do this:*

**sudo iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4**

7MS #31: Network Detective (audio)

Network Detective is a tool we’ve been using as kind of an addendum to our full security assessment. It gives some nice, plain-English Excel spreadsheets and Word docs that report on AD health and structure, PC inventory and open ports, AV clients that aren’t working right, and a whole lot more.

7MS #30: Managing Privileged Accounts (audio)

Most organizations I talk to have no idea where their privileged accounts are used across the network. I recently saw a demo of a solution called CyberArk, which seems to address that problem. Download: 7MS #30: Managing Privileged Accounts (audio)

7MS #26: The Importance of Training and Awareness (audio)

Training and awareness – specifically as it relates to infosec – is something companies can’t spend enough $ on. But from my experience, not enough of them are making this a front-burner priority. This episode talks about one topic I’m particularly passionate about. I call it “How not to click on bad stuff.” Download: 7MS #26:…
