Capabilities
1 Target System
The following sections describe the features concerning the Target System.
1 Installer
The installer is the part of the FinSpy Target that deploys the actual software onto the Target System, ensures the loading on system boot and the hiding from Anti-Virus software.
1 Supported Operating Systems
The FinSpy Target component currently supports the following Operating Systems:
▪ Microsoft Windows 2000 Clean / SP1 / SP2 / SP3 / SP4
▪ Microsoft Windows XP Clean / SP1 / SP2 / SP3
▪ Microsoft Windows Vista Clean / SP1 / SP2 / SP3 (32 Bit & 64 Bit)
▪ Microsoft Windows 7 (32 Bit & 64 Bit)
▪ Mac OS X 10.6.x
▪ Linux 2.6
The FinSpy Target can be installed on these Operating Systems with Administrator and regular user accounts.
2 Permanent Installation
The FinSpy Target is installed covertly onto the Target System and will be run at every system boot. The exact installation technique depends on whether the software was deployed from a limited user or full administrator account.
If deployed in the Master Boot Record, the software is resistant to:
▪ Security software like Deep Freeze who remove all created and installed files after logout
▪ Re-Installation of Operating System
▪ Regular Format of Hard-Disk and Re-Installation of Operating System
3 Permutation
In order to prevent having a simple way of detection whether FinSpy Target is deployed on a Target System or not, several Permutation techniques are implemented that ensure:
▪ Random File-Names and Storage Locations
▪ Random Module Names
▪ Random Auto-Start Techniques
▪ Random Communication Techniques (depending on configuration)
4 Active Hiding
Enable the user with the capability to use intrusive techniques to hide infection files and folders, registry entries, network connections.
5 Hide inside Files
For initial deployment, the FinSpy Target executable can be hidden inside various file-types:
▪ Executable: Hide inside other Software (.exe)
▪ Screensaver: Hide inside a Screensaver (.scr)
▪ Microsoft Office Word Document: Hide inside any Word 97-2003 file (.doc)
▪ Microsoft Office Excel Document: Hide inside any Excel 97-2003 file (.xls)
▪ Other Files: Hide inside any given file by converting it to an Executable
with the original Icon and behaviour
After the first run of these prepared files, the FinSpy Target software will be deployed on the Target System and removed from the original file to remove any evidence of the infection that was done through the given file.
2 Framework
The following sections describe the basic framework of the FinSpy Target software.
1 Modular System
The software is designed as a modular framework; therefore it consists of a small core application (approx. 150KB) and all features are implemented as separate modules.
[pic]
All modules can be:
a) Configured at creation time and included in the Installer package
b) Uploaded and Configured or Removed in a Live Session with the Target System
c) Updated separately during Live Sessions
2 Communication
The communication between Target System and Headquarter is based on reverse connections using standard ports and protocols.
FinSpy Target sends regular heart-beats in configurable intervals to the FinSpy Master.
[pic]
In case a FinSpy Agent creates a live connection with the FinSpy Target, it does not actively connect it but rather use the connection which was established by the Target System in order to bypass all common network- and host-based firewalls. FinSpy Target also randomly selects Proxies and Ports for each connection it creates.
All communication between the Target System and the Headquarter is end-to-end encrypted using the following algorithms:
▪ RSA 2048-bit
▪ AES (Rijndael) 256-bit
▪ SHA 256-bit
On generation, each FinSpy Target gets assigned a dedicated RSA key-pair for the encryption to ensure integrity of all other FinSpy Targets if one got compromised.
3 Data Encryption
All Data that is recorded and temporary stored on the Target System is fully encrypted before writing it to disk using the following algorithms:
▪ RSA 2048-bit
▪ AES (Rijndael) 256-bit
▪ SHA 256-bit
When encrypting the data, FinSpy Target uses the RSA public certificate of the Headquarter and therefore is no longer able to decrypt the data but still able to send it back to the FinSpy Master.
4 Time-Based Events
Several modules can be configured to activate their functionality through Time-Based Events (TBE) which are configured with the following values:
▪ Start Event Date: The date when the recording should start
▪ Event Time: The time when the recording should start
▪ Time Zone: The time zone to be used for the scheduled tasks:
o Local: The local time on the FinSpy Master server
o UTC: Coordinated Universal Time
o Target: Local time on the Target System
▪ Interval: The repetition of the task:
o Once: Do not repeat the recording
o Daily: Repeat the configured task on a daily basis
o Weekly: Repeat the configured task on a weekly basis
o Monthly: Repeat the configured task on a monthly basis
▪ Duration: Duration of the recording
Configuration Dialog
[pic]
The following modules can be used in time-based events:
▪ Microphone Recording
▪ Screen Recording
▪ Webcam Recording
Example of scheduled Events
[pic]
5 Application-Based Events
Application-Based Events (ABE) is a feature that allows FinSpy Target to react to applications that are running on the Target System. It mainly contains of 3 options:
▪ Disabled: Do not use Application-Based Events
▪ Active for Event: The module will be activated whenever the application is running
▪ Inactive for Event: The module will be de-activated whenever the application is running
ABE Example
[pic]
Active for Event can for example be used to not do any network and system activity unless a certain process is running, e.g. no data is send unless skype.exe, bittorrent.exe ... are running.
Using this technique the created traffic is hidden effectively in existing network traffic that is created by other running applications.
Inactive for Event can be used effectively for Anti-Forensics, for example FinSpy Target can be configured to hold all communication and activities as soon as certain software is running like Network Analyzers (e.g. Wireshark) or Debuggers (e.g. IDApro).
3 Data Collectors
The following chapters outline the basic functionalities of the data collection modules.
1 Keylogger
The Keylogger module is designed to capture everything that is typed on the Target System’s keyboard and therefore capture information like passwords, e-mails, chats and more.
The Keylogger can be used in 2 different modes:
▪ Permanent Background Recording: Record the keystrokes permanently in the background and transmit the recorded data in configured intervals
▪ Live Session: Display all typed characters in real-time while the Target System is online
Additional to the Keystrokes, the following information is recorded:
▪ Target Window: The Window where the data has been sent
▪ Time: Timestamp of Event
Using this meta-information, it is possible to apply filters to the recorded data and easily separate it according to where the keys have been sent to.
Functional keys like Backspace, Space and Return are recorded in raw-format and can be displayed in raw format or interpreted by the viewer application.
Example Keylogger Recording
The Keylogger module has full Unicode and IME (Input Method Editor) support.
Through the implemented Application-Based Events, the Keylogger module is able to filter the recorded data inputs through the following configuration options:
▪ Process Name: Ignore all or only record keystrokes that are being sent to a certain process (e.g. Offline Games)
▪ Window Title: Ignore all or only record keystrokes that are being sent to an application with a certain window title (e.g. only record the keystrokes for specific websites instead of all keys that are being sent to the Web-browser)
2 File Access
The File Access module is designed to enable the Operator to remotely access files which are located on the Target Systems Hard-Disk or any attached Storage Device (e.g. USB Dongle or external Hard-Disk).
The File Access module can be used in the following mode:

The Changed Files module can be used in the following mode:
▪ Permanent Background Recording: Whenever a file is changed on the disk a copy of it is made.
The main feature of this module is file recording filtering, and for this purpose there are three levels of filtering:
▪ The location(s) where the software watches for changes, which can be the whole file system with all drives and folders or just some specific location(s).
▪ Exceptions to the selected locations which have to be watched configured in the filter above. These exceptions are actually subfolders of the folders selected in the filter above.
▪ The file types which should be taken in consideration and recorded.
[pic]
9 Deleted Files
The Deleted Files module is designed to make a recording of all the files deleted from the system no matter if they are sent to Recycle Bin or completely deleted (using Shift+Delete).
The Deleted Files module can be used in the following mode:
▪ Permanent Background Recording: Whenever a file is deleted a copy of it is made.
The main feature of this module is file recording filtering, and for this purpose there are three levels of filtering:
▪ The location(s) where the software watches for deletion requests, which can be the whole file system with the all drivers and folders or just some specific location(s).
▪ Exceptions to the selected locations which have to be watched configured in the filter above. These exceptions are actually subfolders of the folders selected in the filter above.
▪ The file types which should be taken in consideration and recorded.
[pic]
10 Forensics Module
The Forensics Module is designed to execute predefined binaries on the FinSpy Target system. These applications will allow the FinSpy Agent to retrieve data stored on the FinSpy Target.
[pic]
To be executed, the specified application needs to be uploaded to the FinSpy Target and is then executed. The application resides hidden on the FinSpy Target system until it is deleted manually.
The following categories exist:
▪ System
▪ Network
▪ Passwords
▪ Internet
11 Printer Module
The Printer Module is in charge with capturing and recording of the documents which are sent to the printer. The captured jobs are encoded as PDF documents.
12 VoIP Module
VoIP module provides a generic method of capturing the incoming and outgoing audio streams for VoIP applications. The user is enabled with the capability to enable/disable recording for certain application groups as well as for individual applications.
Besides capturing the audio streams the module generates also a screenshot of the application being under surveillance to provide additional information about the conversation members.
[pic]
14 Accessed Files Module
Records all the accessed documents, which meet the conditions specified by the filters configured in the module configuration.
▪ The location(s) where the software watches for accessed files, which can be the whole file system with the all drivers and folders or just some specific location(s).
▪ Exceptions to the selected locations which have to be watched configured in the filter above. These exceptions are actually subfolders of the folders selected in the filter above.
▪ The file types which should be taken in consideration and recorded.
[pic]
By default in Windows 7 and Windows VISTA the pictures are opened with Window Explorer which has an unexpected behaviour and can generate more than the accessed picture files if in the folder are more picture files. For this reason the picture files opened with Windows Explorer recordings are disabled by default. The user can access this feature enabling the Record image files accessed by explorer.exe .
4 Infection Limit
In order to prevent accidental infection of non-Target Systems (e.g. when the Target forwards an infected Office document to other contacts before opening it), a maximum number of infections can be specified.
Example Infection Limit
[pic]
When the number of infections with this specific FinSpy Target executable has been reached, all further systems will not get infected when running the application.
5 Auto-Removal
The FinSpy Target can self-destruct itself and delete all its data from the Target System on a configured date and time. This is often required for the legal system in countries where Target Systems can only be monitored for a certain period of time that is specified by a Warrant.
Example Auto-Removal Configuration
[pic]
2 Headquarter
The following sections describe the features concerning the Headquarter systems.
1 Target Creation
For each Target System, a new FinSpy Target can be easily generated and customized through the FinSpy Agent software which includes configuration of:
▪ Infection Name: Assign a custom name to the Executable. Additional to this, a unique ID for the FinSpy Target executable will be created and each infected Target System will be assigned a separate unique ID in case the Executable is used to infect multiple Target Systems
▪ Configure Network Communication: Configure up to 50 FinSpy Relay proxies and up to 20 TCP ports that are used for the communication between Target System and Headquarter
▪ Configure Auto-Removal: Configure a fixed date when the FinSpy Target should self-destruct and remove itself automatically from the Target System (online or offline)

2 Download Schedule
In order to transmit the recorded data from the Target System to the Headquarter, different techniques are implemented:
▪ Event-Based: Transmit data when a certain event occurs, for example: The screensaver is running, the screen is locked or new data has been recorded
Example Event-Based
[pic]
▪ Time-Based: Transmit data at configured dates/times. This data transmission can be configured to be repeated daily, weekly or monthly
Example Time-Based
[pic]
3 Download Now
Selective download capability is provided, and the user can select the recordings which should be downloaded and manually trigger the download.
[pic]
This feature enables the user with the capability of defining an order in the download of recorded data, decide the removal of recorded data if is of no interest directly on the target without the overhead introduce by the download of the unwanted recorded data.
4 Live Sessions
Live Sessions can be established with Target Systems that are currently online. Using Live Sessions, it is possible to get real-time access to the modules like Microphone, Screen, Webcam and File-System.
The chapter “Data Collectors” covers all modules in detail.
Example Live-Session Modules
[pic]
All data that is streamed during the Live Sessions is in parallel recorded in the central database for later analysis.
5 Configuration
The Target Systems can be easily configured through the user interface, this includes:
▪ Main Options: Configure the name of the FinSpy Target, network communication options, Application-Based Events and more.
▪ Modules: Add and Remove modules or temporary disable them. Configure all module-specific options (e.g. quality settings)
Example Configuration Dialog
[pic]
The licensed Targets which are offline can be also configured by the Agent and the configuration will be uploaded by the Master to the Target as soon as the target comes online.
6 Alert Settings
Individual alert events can be configured for each Target System (online or offline):
▪ Target Online: A message will be sent when the Target Systems appears online
▪ Data Available: A message will be sent when the Target Systems recorded new data
▪ Data Downloaded: A message will be sent when new data has been retrieved on the FinSpy Master server
Alert Configuration Example
[pic]
When an alert occurs, a notification E-Mail is sent to the configured E-Mail address.
The content of the E-Mail contains short information about:
▪ Target System
▪ Type of Alert
The generated E-Mail is in short form so that it could be combined with an E-Mail-to-SMS gateway which forwards them directly to a configured mobile phone.
7 Remove Infection
When the monitoring of a specific Target System is no longer required, the FinSpy Target software can be remotely removed from it.
This feature removes all files related to the FinSpy Target component and all temporary-stored data from the Target System.
8 Remove Data
In case the data which has been recorded from a specific Target System is no longer required, it can be locally deleted from the Headquarter servers.
9 Update
When a new version is available the button becomes enabled and the user can choose to update the Infection from the Target system. This can be achieved also automatically by setting up the appropriate flags on the FinSpy Master.
4 Hiding the Location
When analyzing a Target System where FinSpy Target is installed and has not been configured with paranoid settings in Application-Based Events, forensic professionals will be able to detect the outgoing traffic that is created by the FinSpy Target software. In order to prevent them from being able to determine the location and country of the Headquarter, FinSpy Relay was developed which enables the operator to setup anonymous proxies around the world.
The FinSpy Relay software currently supports the following Operating Systems:
▪ Debian / Ubuntu Linux: min 256 MB RAM, recommended 512 MB
▪ Microsoft Windows Server 2003/2008: min 512 MB RAM, recommended 1 GB
Example Setup
[pic]
As the FinSpy Relay is usually setup on Virtual Private Servers (VPS) in several different countries and continents, it is practically impossible to trace the connection back to the Headquarter or even to the country where the FinSpy Master is located.
5 Database
The central database of the FinSpy system is part of the FinSpy Master component.
All data is strictly separated on a per-target basis so that it can be easily analyzed, exported or removed.
Database Structure
[pic]
For each file that is received from a FinSpy Target, 2 files are created:
▪ Data File: Containing the actual data of the file (e.g. Skype Call)
▪ Meta File: Containing all Meta-Information about the Data file
The Meta File content usually contains this generic information (depending on the type of file):
▪ Recorder Module: Which module created this file
▪ Module Configuration: Quality Settings, etc.
▪ Download Time Master: What local time was the file downloaded
▪ Download Time Target: What time on Target was the file downloaded
The other Meta information depends on the type of module, for example:
▪ Skype: Logged in User, Chat/Call Partner(s), Duration of Call, etc.
▪ Downloaded Files: Opened/Edited/Created headers, original Location, etc.
See the individual module sections for a detailed list.
6 Evidence Protection
Most countries legal systems require proof of:
▪ Configuration: How was the deployed FinSpy Target initially configured, what configuration has been done after the deployment and what modules have been used
▪ Action Log: What features were used by which Operator at given dates and times
▪ Acquired Data: Ensure the integrity, prevent tampering of data
The Evidence Protection that is implemented in FinSpy uses the following algorithms and formats for signing:
▪ PKCS#12 /X509 certificates (RSA 2048 bit)
▪ S/MIME (detached) signatures
Note: It is possible to import a custom PKCS#12 into the FinSpy Master and use this custom certificate for all signing operations.
Example Evidence Protection Configuration
[pic]
1 Action Log
The Action Log feature enables full logging on the FinSpy Master server of all activity that is related to the selected Target System:
▪ Date: Timestamp of activity in UTC.
▪ User: Name of the Operator that performed the activity. In case of automated tasks, FinSpy Master is named.
▪ UserUID: The unique ID that is associated with the account of the Operator.
▪ AgentUID: The unique ID that is associated with the Agent system.
▪ Module: The data collection module used within the action. In case the event does not relate with any specific module, this field is left blank.
▪ Event Description: Brief description of the event.
Example Action Log
[pic]
2 Target History
Provides information about the target location (City, Country), the public IP address and the online and offline timestamps.
Example History Log
[pic]
3 Data Signing
Before importing data from Target Systems into the database, it is signed with the dedicated data signing certificate to ensure the integrity of the recorded data.
In case of any modifications of the data within the database, the signature verification will fail and therefore alert the Operator about tampered evidence.
Example Data Verification
[pic]
4 Evidence Verification Tool
To present the case-related evidence in front of court, a stand-alone Evidence Verification Tool is provided.
After exporting all related data in the FinSpy Agent system it can be loaded into the external tool to automatically verify the signatures of:
▪ Action Log: Tab-separated Log-File
▪ Data: Each file has its own signature which is verified in order to check for modifications
Example Evidence Verification Tool
[pic]
7 Administration

The System Administrators have full access to the system configuration as well as to all the targets and collected evidence. The Administrators have no restricted access to Targets and collected evidence but they have no rights to configure the FinSpy system. The regular Users have access to the targets assigned to them. Further, these rights can be configured as shown below.

9 LEMF Interface
A data submission module is part of the FinSpy Master that is able to transmit all recorded data and the according meta-information to a Law Enforcement Monitoring Functionality (LEMF, e.g. traditional IP monitoring system).
The FinSpy Master server is connected to the LEMF through a dedicated network interface and with a unidirectional Ethernet cable in order to not compromise the security of the database.

The exact protocol specifications are provided on request so the data acquired by the FinSpy system can be integrated into any existing central storage systems.
10 License System
FinSpy comes with a built-in license system that restricts the number of:
▪ FinSpy Agents: Only the specified number of FinSpy Agent systems can be connected to the FinSpy Master in parallel
▪ FinSpy Targets: Each Target System gets a license ID assigned. If more Targets are infected than licenses are available, they are temporary disabled until an active Target is de-infected.
