Intrusion Prevention System

Hi,

 

I'm pretty new on the forum so please bear with me. I'm using SG430 

 

I noticed on the Intrusion Prevention System Log that I started getting this logs: 

 

firewall snort[27237]: id="2101" severity="warn" sys="SecureNet" sub="ips" name="Intrusion protection alert" action="drop" reason="INDICATOR-COMPROMISE Suspicious .tk dns query" group="241" srcip="172.16.135.162" dstip="8.8.4.4" proto="17" srcport="61792" dstport="53" sid="39867" class="Misc activity" priority="3" generator="1" msgid="0"

 

The source IP is internal and destination is Google. Not only that, I'm also getting the another entry from the same source IP but the destination IP is internal.

  • That means that ip 172.16.135.162 is doing DNS query against Google DNS. And these domain names are ending with .tk which means these are often malicious services.

    You have to do further analysis to know is this caused by a real thread.

    To give more advice you have to tell us a little more about your DNS ( network) structure.

    Best
