C. Configuration
C. Description tags
Tags are case insensitive alphanumeric strings, designed to allow event
receivers to do more general filtering according to event source. Receiver
can for example decide to use only events originating at honeypots, or
filter out events, generated by human conclusions or correlation engines.
Sender client specifies its descriptive tags during registration, it is
up to client administrator's judgment to select or omit any particular tag.
Currently tags fall into four general categories - based on event medium,
data source, detection methodology and detector or analyzer product name.
Product name tag is free to choose if same product name was not yet
accepted by registrar, otherwise existing form must be used (registrar will
notify about such cases).
Categories list is certainly not complete. Therefore if new client's
administrator feels that name or type of important feature of his (or
others) detector is not covered, providers of Warden server are glad to
discuss it at registration address or at Warden project mailing list.
However, it may or may not be accepted, as aim is to keep the list of
categories possibly unambiguous, short and usable.
Following is grouped list of tags together with closer description and
examples.
1. Detection medium
* Network - network data based (Snort, Suricata, Bro, FTAS, LaBrea, Kippo)
* Host - host based (Swatch, Logcheck)
* Correlation - corellation engines (Prelude, OSSIM)
* External - credible external sources (incident reporting, ticket
systems, human verified events)
2. Data source
* Content - datagram content based detectors (Snort, Bro)
* Flow - netflow based (FTAS, FlowMon)
* Connection - connection data (portscan, portsweep)
* Data - application data based (SpamAssassin, antiviruses)
* Log - based on system logs, where more specific source is not
applicable (Swatch, Logcheck, SSH scans)
* IR - incident reporting, ticket systems, human verified events
3. Detection methodology
* Honeypot (LaBrea, Kippo, Dionaea)
* Antispam (SpamAssassin, Bogofilter, CRM114, Policyd, greylisting)
* Antivirus (ClamAV)
* IDS - IDS/IPS, Snort, Suricata, Bro
4. Detector/analyzer product name examples
* Snort, FTAS, SpamAssassin, LaBrea, Swatch, Prelude
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D. Types of events
Event types purpose is to allow event receivers to filter and/or
categorise particular events according to attack characteristics. Types are
loosely chosen as list of common security incidents nowadays observed. List
is by no means complete, however it was created based on expected use cases
at receiving places. Possibility of a new type is also open to discussion.
* portscan - TCP/UDP port scanning/sweeping
* bruteforce - dictionary/bruteforce attack to services authentication
* spam - unsolicited commercial email (except phishing)
* phishing - email, trying to scam user to revealing personal information
(possibly by some other channel)
* botnet_c_c - botnet command & control master machine
* dos - (possibly distributed) denial of service attack
* malware - virus/malware sample
* copyright - copyright infringement
* webattack - web application attack
* other - the rest, uncategorizable yet
In case of complex scenarios with structured info more events with
particular parts of information can be created.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
E. Configuration
CESNET Warden server resides at URI 'https://warden.cesnet.cz:443/Warden'.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D. Testing
F. Testing
For testing purposes of sender clients, event type 'test' can be used.
These events will end up in server database, but will not be taken
further into consideration.

C. Registration
C. Installation
Any client attempting to communicate with Warden server must be registered
on this server. Unknown (not registered) clients are not allowed to exchange
any data with server.
Registration of your client is provided by Warden server administrator.
Usually via e-mail.
Clients need to have valid client certificate to prove their identity to
the Warden server.
Each client is defined by its hostname, service name, type of client, type
of requested events and CIDR the client is allowed to communicate from only.
Hostname - hostname of client to be registered
Service name - Text string. Unique name of the service
the client is integrated in.
E.g. 'ScanDetector_1.0'. This is mandatory for
'Sender' client. Default value null is used for
'Receiver' client.
Type of client - Either 'Sender' or 'Receiver'.
Type of requested events - Type of events the client only accepts from
Warden server. This is mandatory only for
'Receiver' client. Default value null is used
for 'Sender' client. Brief information about
event types is provided in section G. Functions
arguments and calls.
CIDR - CIDR stands for IP address or IP (sub)net
the client is going to communicate from. Any
communications between the client and Warden
Server must be performed from IP address from
a range stated in CIDR.
Examples: '123.123.0.0/16', '123.123.123.123/32'
For complete information about client attributes and/or event types see
Warden project documentation.

E. Integration with Local Applications
(Note: Clients need to be registered on server to be able to communicate with
server properly. See section C. Registration for more information about
client registration.)
E. Update
1. Client sender (this type of client reports events to Warden server)
Client functionality is included as a Perl module (WardenClientSend.pm)
into Perl code of local detection application.
See warden-client/doc/example-sender.pl.txt for example how to use
warden-client sender functionality.
Brief information about syntax of sending functions and functionality is
provided in section G. Functions arguments and calls.
2. Client receiver (this type of clients uploads events from Warden server)
Client functionality is included as a perl module (WardenClientReceive.pm)
into perl code of local 'reaction' application or may be used as as core of
standalone local application.
See warden-client/doc/example-receiver.pl.txt for example how to use
warden-client receiver functionality.
Brief information about syntax of receiving functions and functionality is
provided in section G. Functions arguments and calls.

G. Functions, Arguments and Calls
G. Registration of Clients
1. WardenClientSend::saveNewEvent
Function to upload one event on the Warden server. See example 'Sender'
client in warden-client/doc/example-sender.pl.txt
Function call (Perl):
# Path to warden-client folder
$warden_path = '/opt/warden-client';
# Inclusion of warden-client sender module

# protocols and null
$target_proto = "TCP";
# TARGET_PORT - INT 2
# Port number of reported attack/issue target or null.
$target_port = "22";
# ATTACK_SCALE - INT 4
# Definition of attack scale, e.g. number of affected targets. Null is also
# possible when attack scale is not known or clear enough.
$attack_scale = "1234567890";
# NOTE - TEXT
# Some important(!) note or comment or null. Also, it may contain virus
