Abstract

Are you looking for an advanced tool to detect and prevent sophisticated exploits on your systems? Look no further than eBPFShield. Here’s a technical overview of its capabilities:

The DNS monitoring feature detects DNS tunneling, a tactic used by attackers to bypass network security. By monitoring DNS queries, eBPFShield blocks these attempts before any damage occurs.

The IP-Intelligence feature monitors outbound connections against threat intelligence lists to prevent command-and-control (C2) communications. This blocks attackers from exfiltrating data or delivering payloads to your system.

With eBPFShield Machine Learning, you can run advanced algorithms directly in eBPF. We showcase a flow-based network intrusion detection system (IDS) using a decision tree to classify packets as malicious or benign. eBPFShield Forensics analyzes system calls and kernel events to detect code injection and identify malicious files and processes, enabling quick remediation of security issues.

The following key features and their practical applications:

DNS Monitoring

Attendees will learn how eBPFShield monitors DNS queries to detect and block DNS tunneling attempts, a common technique used by attackers to bypass network security measures.

IP-Intelligence

The workshop will demonstrate how to use eBPFShield’s IP-Intelligence feature to monitor outbound connections and compare them against threat intelligence lists. This helps in preventing command-and-control (C2) communications by blocking connections to known malicious destinations.

Machine Learning Integration

Participants will be introduced to eBPFShield’s capability to develop and run machine learning algorithms within eBPF. They will see a demonstration of a flow-based network intrusion detection system (IDS) that uses a decision tree to classify packets as malicious or benign, considering the entire network flow context.

Forensics

The session will cover how eBPFShield’s forensic tools analyze system calls and kernel events to detect code injection attempts and identify malicious files and processes. This feature aids in quickly remediating security issues on Linux systems. Through these demonstrations, attendees will gain practical knowledge of how eBPFShield can protect systems from advanced threats and enhance their overall cybersecurity posture.
