so very good afternoon off
very good afternoon all of you my name
is Rahul Tyagi and Brona brought up in
Punjab in a small village known as good
a school anybody heard about that it’s
on Google map don’t worry and it’s from
last 7 to 8 years I think I have
dedicated in my life in a field known as
cyber security and if you know our Prime
Minister is talking about digital India
and security concerns the country has to
take care of so we are like the breed of
geeks who work 24 into 7 on computers
doesn’t listen to anyone the first and
only love is computer second is the
human being for sure because we take
care of them after when we stop any
cyber crime or we stop anyone to get
harassed on internet and so on today’s
my talk is something special talk is
known as the underground cyber crimes in
2017 what they will never want to talk
about so what the things which they
don’t want to talk about of course good
and bad so let me start
with a thing hackers are changing so let
me take you to I think in 1987 majority
of you I think was not born that time so
so at that time you know world’s first
private computer or you can say world’s
first personal computing malware was
designed and start in fact in the world
like never before the wireless name was
brain dot a do you remember the floppy
floppy disk okay so they infected that
and when you plug the floppy drive in
your computer it is going to infect your
computer that was the first personal
computer virus ever been iodine
encounter it was designed by two
brothers Basit and Amjad from Pakistan
and they were so confident and if you
write to try to open open the source
code of the malware you can actually see
the address and the phone number and if
you have any problem different please
call our phone number we’ll fix it for
you you know so that was the first
computer malware so but it’s not like
that today today there are more more
organized criminal gangs who are working
24 into 7 to get your bank account data
get your personal facebook chat which is
quite a deal right nobody wants to give
that now that’s the problem we have so
we have entered into digital 2.0 era now
what is digital 2.0 5 to 6 years back
what was the internet for you the
internal boss go to youtube go to mr.
something XY then today we go to mr.
Birnbaum and tell a lot of things you
know you do now moreover that in today’s
age after 5 years
moreover internet and technology we are
being where we are using is more
connected to the finance to the money
when you go out of home you booked uber
or Ola money involved in industry you
have coupon you know most all money you
know
now the more money is going to be
involved into digital age the more
criminals are going to be
interesting and that is where the
problem is and that’s what we are
addressing in lucina’s from last five
years a company with having 110 Minds
card coal hackers more capable than me
trust me and the least one there so very
good mine on an average age of 21 23
sitting 2407 into their computers day
and night and they try to hack into the
things no too bad not for the bad
purposes so companies hire us to hack
into their system legally with their
permission and we tell them what’s a
problem today we have state-sponsored
hacks state-sponsored hacking will talk
about in the latest slide it’s something
which is governed by the government’s
governed by the cyber terrorist groups
in an organized way it’s not a kid 19
years of kid who’s sitting at his home
in the dark and trying to hack into your
personal chat or something they are
really organized really professional and
the biggest problem which we are seeing
right now this is the first time in
technology are are criminals are now
more investing their money into research
before applying the attack in the
audience which was never happened before
now this is the matter of concern so
it’s just like you know they want to
test their attack before launching that
whether it will be successful or not if
it is not going to be successful as per
their in the as per the market scenario
they will not launch it think like a
start-up you know I don’t want to launch
your product they see there is no crowd
okay don’t launch the product then and
that’s the same thing they are doing now
so from there these organized criminals
are going coming up and why it’s very
difficult to trace them back so this is
known as the Deep Web now deep web is a
part of the World Wide Web which
traditionally doesn’t come on Google
searches and other search engines it’s a
hidden Internet if you think google
shows everything to you Google only
shows you 0.04 percent of the entire
Internet which actually exists quite a
deal if you don’t believe me google it
now when you have this kind of stats
then definitely there’s the other
internet that Internet is known as the
Deep Web dark internet hidden internet
because of the anonymity of this
internet there a lot of criminals also
incited whistleblowers who want to
reveal something against the government
and against other agencies they register
to this website and published the
material because there is no tracing of
this thing you can have actually the
real drugs there are organized criminal
gangs who are selling drugs there
sometime cash on delivery also in US and
other countries it’s going like massive
scale in us then we have weapon assassin
killers and obviously we are human
reserve whoa
is it real yes it’s real and these
people have little bit of ethics also
for example if you’ve got a drug from a
website and the quality was not good and
you can report abuse also and they will
shut it down that vendor they will not
sell the good bad drugs for you now that
is something which was it’s like
e-commerce of criminals ecommerce of the
bad people so only in harassment and
money instruction in 2017 so I’ll give
you a case study which we recently
busted a case or four companies one of
the very big employer web.whatsapp.com
when you don’t want to use your mobile
phone you’re in office or at your home
you want to chat on your desktop so you
open the website scan the QR code and
you start talking to the people now in
this scam what happen there was a person
who was actually a big companies very
big everyone you know the car name the
company for sure it’s a very big company
and the guy was a at a very big position
there so at the age of 65 you know he
was writing out of country having good
time and it was 1:00 a.m. in the morning
he was not feeling sleepy so he opened
certain websites you know something so
when he opens something and in the
right-hand side there are a lot of
popups on those websites you know kind
of pop-ups and there’s a beautiful girl
shouting like anything with a kind of
you know weather later send all soups
talk to me how you want to talk to her
they said okay these are five steps you
can talk to me right now
first open your webcam sorry open your
whatsapp and there’s a QR code scan this
QR code and start your chatting with me
one name you know so it’s low K and he
scanned it
nothing happened he’s waiting for the
message hi no message and after some
time he got a another message on his SS
SMS as a flash message I have your chat
now traditionally we know if I scan
web.whatsapp.com right it will not go to
somewhere else but the criminals are
having this scan nowadays if you see a
QR code and you scan we did it’s
possible to get your chat anywhere else
in the world and then they will
blackmail you so now let me show you
that how this attack was done
practically so we’re going to hack into
someone’s what’s up here if you alone e
so it’s an application which basically
can make some phishing pages and it’s
like you can make a fake pages of chat
applications mailing services ecommerce
website passport services you know
mostly used by criminals to trick people
to enter the credit critical information
like social security ID in US and other
hard card information in India so it’s
more and more oh it’s not the problem
with the technology it’s with the people
you know you can fix any technology but
there is no patch of human stupidity and
that’s what hackers entry so I’ll
quickly come to whatsapp and number so
this kind of technical jargon so you
don’t have to go inside it but now you
will observe automatically in trace the
link will come up so now we are going to
see as he is going to scan this code if
return works perfectly we are going to
see his entire chat here in front of you
and hopefully we are going to get so he
I sent him a code and he scanned it and
after some time we are going to get
I know you’re curious about it I feel
you’re the hacker now trying to reach
the phone come on Lee try again talking
so we got his entire chat so we can see
his oh I’m sorry if you have some
personal messages so so now that is the
problem you know that is a really a
problem you guys know that
web.whatsapp.com know you can oh you
should not scan but a person who is 45
who is not into that technology it’s
very easy to trick him and these days
hackers are targeting the companies and
the crowds there and big people in the
organization
who can be a part of this scam cyber
espionage now this is a new term when
you hire cyber criminals in the Deep Web
to shut down your rivals so this is a
screenshot of a real criminal web site
from the Deep Web so this is kind of an
attack where we send too much hello to a
server than the capacity of that server
for example if a server is ready to
handle 10,000 people if you send them
20,000 people they cannot handle that
request and it will stop saying that I
cannot at the page cannot be displayed
as per your budget you can start the
attack and they are going to attack it
you just have to pay through bitcoins
and you can shut down the website if the
website is shut down customer can go to
the website customer can’t go to the
website damage to the business nothing
is going to be sell this is the real
scenario today cyber espionage
so Tuesdays 7 March 2007 to sever 17
this is the first thing which was happen
and it I think it is one of the biggest
leaked ever done by WikiLeaks what they
leaked is this we click released a new
series of leaks on Central Intelligence
Agency of America CIA with the name of
world seven and this is a screenshot of
my friends website mr. Mohit Kumar the
hacker news I didn’t give the credit to
him so maybe in the video I believe so
WikiLeaks expose CIA’s hacking tool 8200
documentation was there
which are for the offense and for the
defense purposes the tools which can
hack remotely anyone on the planet
without even touching their computer or
the mobile phone is that thing known as
a tunnel blew this demo this this
malware was the design or this exploit
was designed by the CIA and it’s right
now in the public domain I am going to
hacked so for example you are sitting
into a coffee shop you’re a very
powerful person and there is a hacker
who’s sitting right now on the same
network like you are in the computer if
you’re using Windows 7 armed into your
network I don’t have to touch your
computer I can get into your machine and
steal everything I can own your webcam I
can see what are you doing and if you’re
thinking about oh there is a light we
can shut down the light remotely you
never know someone is watching you or
not that’s why I always have tape on my
camera you never know so they named this
exploit as eternal blue the capability
of this exploit was if again you’re
sitting there I am sitting here I
without touching you no matter what
antivirus you have no matter what
security solution you have with some
little bit of editing in the exploit to
make it fully undetectable
we can get into your machine and then
it’s all ours so and now I have to type
exploit as I’m going to type exploit
here you will see something is happening
so my attack is going to that computer
and the only thing which I need to
access from that computer is the command
prompt if I get your command prompt
right now what will happen I can do many
commands now you see that there is a
thing known as one met up retrocession
has been opened that means I have gained
access of that machine without touching
and if you see the machine it’s working
perfectly fine no pop up nothing is
there and now I want to take a
screenshot of that the only thing I will
do is screen short press ENTER and now
it says your screenshot is now into this
directory so let me see and go there can
you see that so I can actually get the
screenshot of your computer remotely
into my computer that what
you’re doing a time webcam I can record
your audio I can decode the video also
people we have to aware them look how
many session of security you have in one
year it’s very easy to hack into the
account your accountant in your
university because he’s no no no but he
carry the most sensitive information if
I’ll able to hack him I having a
backbone financial backbone of yours and
that’s what is the problem people who
are not we are not paying the boardroom
numbers the companies are not paying
that much amount to the people part they
think if we have the firewall they have
the NT worse we have the older solution
that work is done it is the first step
when you really want to secure yourself
in the last I would like to end my talk
by saying this that every Indian wants
to make this country a digital India and
[Music]
what I believe that if we really wants
to have a true solution true solution I
am talking about a really true solution
then in the country of more than one
point three five billion people every
citizen India has to happen and has to
know little bit about cybersecurity
until and unless this is not gonna
happen we cannot achieve the goal and
the successful goal of transforming
digital India into a secure digital
India which I feel is the need akhtar
and that is quite possible thank you so
much
