Breach Security has a product called BreachView SSL that passively decrypts SSL traffic for an IDS without terminating the SSL session. The product comes as either a software plug-in or an appliance. http://www.breach.com/products_breachviewssl.asp ko -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Panayiotis Psihoyios Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2007 10:01 AM To: 'Ove Dalgård Hansen'; focus-ids () securityfocus com Subject: RE: Bittorrent - utorrent Since it is going through SSL (and no IDS can look into SSL), you have two options: Plan A: Deny SSL traffic, but that usually this is not possible, Plan B: Let your users out through a proxy server, which will identify non-browser traffic using http/s header inspection. Configure your firewall to permit HTTP/S out only from your proxy and not your clients.

We try to filter bittorrent which succedes - but the utorrent changes protocol and goes by the SSL port 443 and thereby circumvent the IDS, since its not possible to see the encrypted traffic. Does anyone out there have a good idea of how i am to solve the issue?
