Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of computer network security, and in particular to an attack and defense drill method for ransomware viruses. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of network security technology, attack and defense drills have gradually become a normalized work in China. Whether it is the national-level "Network Protection Action" or the provincial and municipal-level attack and defense drills, they cover almost all key areas of various industries. These drills have played an important role in improving security awareness and improving corporate security protection, but security incidents caused by ransomware are still common, and their economic losses are particularly serious. In recent years, through the analysis of a large number of ransomware incidents, it can be found that the attack mode of ransomware has changed from "wide-ranging" large-scale infection to "precise sniping" high-value targets. The attack chain is more complex and more destructive, which puts higher demands on the defense capabilities of enterprises. In this context, it is particularly important to carry out special attack and defense drills for ransomware, which can not only help organizations simulate real attack scenarios and verify the effectiveness of existing protection systems, but also improve emergency response and recovery capabilities, and provide strong guarantees for organizations to build full-chain defense capabilities against ransomware.

[0003] The existing solution that is closest to the present invention is the "defense system against ransomware". In the implementation of this system, although the purpose is defense, a virtual machine implementation solution is adopted. First, the ransomware in the real ransomware incident is released into the virtual, and then the sample is executed and its behavior is observed. Finally, professional personnel will carry out specific defense processing before, during, during and after the behavior.

[0004] Attack and defense drills cannot specifically simulate the ransomware environment: It is impossible to perform targeted simulations on the ransomware environment alone. In addition, in traditional attack and defense drills, the Trojans used by the attackers cannot carry the function of the ransomware due to the particularity of the drills. Therefore, it is impossible to conduct drills against ransomware in traditional attack and defense drills.

[0005] The ransomware defense system lacks a real environment: Although the release of the virtual environment ensures its security, it lacks authenticity. Ransomware incidents often occur in a real user environment, but real ransomware cannot be placed in a real user environment, so there will be a contradiction.

[0006] The problem of resource recovery in attack and defense drills: In attack and defense drills, often after the end, some of the conquered defenders are unable to restore the real environment in time or at all for some reason. Some attackers will use tools with better "concealment" that still remain in the defender's assets and cannot be discovered in time.

[0007] Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure and deficiencies are studied and improved, and an attack and defense drill method against ransomware is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an attack and defense drill method for ransomware viruses to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an attack and defense drill method for ransomware, comprising: a command end generates a plurality of ransomware with customized unique identification IDs according to the number of users and a predefined drill time, and locates the user device according to the ID identification to improve the security awareness of a certain independent user; and the plurality of customized ransomware are put into a plurality of user devices.

[0010] Furthermore, it also includes: obtaining the running information of each customized ransomware virus; judging whether each customized ransomware virus is successfully run according to the running information, and after being disguised, the ransomware virus will send the running information of the customized ransomware virus when it is triggered.

[0011] Furthermore, the method further includes: when the multiple customized ransomware viruses launched into the user are unresponsive and the running time is in the rehearsal time, the ransomware virus of the ID is re-customized and launched into the user's machine again after changing the disguise.

[0012] Furthermore, the generating of the ransomware with multiple customized unique identification IDs specifically includes: generating a customized ransomware of the corresponding operating system type according to the operating system type of each user device.

[0013] Furthermore, a ransomware occurrence scenario simulation device that applies the above-mentioned method for simulating a ransomware occurrence scenario includes: a generation module, which is used for the command end to generate multiple ransomware viruses with customized unique identification IDs according to the number of users and a predefined rehearsal time; and a delivery module, which is used to deliver the multiple customized ransomware viruses to multiple user devices.

[0014] Furthermore, it also includes: a monitoring module, which is used to obtain the running information of each customized ransomware virus; and a judgment module, which is used to judge whether each customized ransomware virus is successfully run according to the running information.

[0015] Furthermore, the generation module is also used to assign a unique identification ID to each customized ransomware virus; the judgment module is specifically used to determine whether each customized ransomware virus is successfully run according to the ID and running information of each customized ransomware virus.

[0016] Furthermore, the generation module is also used to regenerate a second customized ransomware and launch it into the same user device as the first customized ransomware when a first customized ransomware among the multiple customized ransomware does not respond within a predetermined time.

[0017] Furthermore, the generation module is specifically used to generate a customized ransomware virus of the corresponding operating system type according to the operating system type of each user device to adapt to a variety of operating system environments.

[0018] The present invention provides an attack and defense drill method for ransomware, which has the following beneficial effects: ensuring the uniqueness of the drill scenario: the present invention mainly performs simulation drills on the occurrence scenario of the ransomware, and the entire process relies on a customized ransomware infection chain, and does not involve other security drills, thereby ensuring the uniqueness of the event; the adopted ransomware is completely customized, and all functions are controllable, thereby ensuring the safety of the drill; the ransomware is completely released into a real user environment, and the user environment is not generated by technologies such as a virtual environment, thereby further ensuring authenticity; the customized functions all simulate the "sniper-style" attack mode adopted by the real ransomware, thereby ensuring that each sample released by the user is independently generated.
