CodePath AWS S3 HoneyBucket Incident Analysis

Description



Welcome to the GitHub repository for Team 32's final project in the CodePath course, Cybersecurity 102 - Intermediate Cybersecurity - Spring 2024 Cohort. This project presents a thorough analysis and strategic response to simulated cybersecurity threats identified in AWS S3 HoneyBucket Logs. Leveraging the AWS IRP-DataAccess framework, our project demonstrates the effective use of data from AWS S3 HoneyBuckets to improve security measures and incident response capabilities.

Dataset Used


Security Datasets: AWS S3 HoneyBucket Logs

  • The Security Datasets project is an open-source initiative that contributes malicious and benign datasets, from different platforms, to the infosec community to expedite data analysis and threat research.
  • This dataset represents adversaries trying to scan, discover and access open S3 honeybucket based on known hostname patterns
  • Here is a quick guide on how to locate the .csv files from these datasets.

Playbook Used


AWS Incident Response Runbook Samples: IRP-DataAccess.md

Playbook Outline

  1. Gather Evidence
  2. Contain and then eradicate the incident
  3. Recover from the incident
  4. Conduct post-incident activities, including post-mortem and feedback processes

Key Features:

  • Incident Analysis using Splunk: Detailed examination of anomalous activities within AWS S3 logs using Splunk, providing insights into the patterns and tactics of potential cyber threats.
  • Incident Management with Catalyst: Utilization of Catalyst for case management and documentation, emphasizing the workflow from the threat detection to resolution.
  • Playbook Application: Implementation of a specific incident response playbook aimed at addressing and mitigating issues identified in the HoneyBucket dataset.
  • Theat Identification and Response: Analysis includes identification of threat vectors and deployment of strategies to mitigate risks and enhance data security.
