Overview
FOXY is a P2P software for file sharing which is very popular in Hong Kong, Macau, China and Taiwan. Since 2006, there have been several sensitive information leakages cases in Taiwan and Hong Kong that happened through the FOXY network. Some of these cases are high profile information leakages that involve celebrities, as well as sensitive information from government agencies.
Once a file is published, and after the first copy has been replicated on a peer, it is impossible to stop the leakage. The best solution is obviously to avoid the initial leakage. However, it is very difficult to block the usage of FOXY within organizations' network due to three reasons - 1. FOXY clients can connect to FOXY network using a wide range of port numbers, thus it is very difficult to block in network firewall using "blacklisting" approach; 2. Initial traffic to Foxy Web Cache servers uses HTTP traffic, thus a quick detection of connection is difficult, unless through the use of deep packet analysis; 3. Even though known web cache server hosts are blocked, continuous effort is required to maintain the known server list. Also because of the three reasons listed above, there is still no software that can effectively detect the use of FOXY within organizations' network or monitor the FOXY network for the possible leakage of sensitive files. FoxyEYE is the first software solution that is dedicated to detect the leakage of files through FOXY network.
FoxyEYE
FoxyEYE is our solution to can allow organizations to monitor their network for the possible leakage by FOXY. Through alerts, FoxyEYE can quickly detect any information leakage and allow the user to react to it quickly. Through the means of IP and filename monitoring, FoxyEYE will raise alerts once they are detected on the Foxy network. Organizations can make use of this by monitoring IP or filename related to them. Using such measures, the organization could easily notice any leakage and react fast enough to stop the spread of sensitive information within the FOXY network.
Benefits
Enable users to monitor and detect unauthorized use of FOXY within networks
Allow users to detect the shared sensitive files on the FOXY network, monitor the defined IP address range and specified file keywords
Allow users to promptly spot any file leakage
Provide historical records for monitored files and shared file information
