Araña: Discovering and Characterizing Password Guessing Attacks in Practice

Araña is a tool for identifying attack campaigns from login logs. We detail the pipeline of this tool in our USENIX Security 2023 paper Araña: Discovering and Characterizing Password Guessing Attacks in Practice. This repository contains a proof of concept implementation of Araña on the login logs collected via our prior work Gossamer (USENIX Security 2022).

Steps to run

• Create the ip_feature table by following instructions inside ip_feature_table folder
• To create the Lsets following HFR heuristics and filtering follow the instructions.
• To run the clustering follow the instructions inside the clustering folder.

Questions?

We are always looking for ways to improve our code and pipeline of our tool. For any bugs/improvements/questions, please feel free to shoot an email at: [email protected] or create a pull request.
