SYS-140

Week 9 Lab 2

Date Goes Here

Objective

In this lab you run some of the Windows Sysinternal tools dealing with processes, files and disks. Before running the tools you should read the pertinent sections in the Windows System Internals Administrators Reference.

Download and run the tools and answer the questions for each tool. The Download site for SysInternals is: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb545021.aspx

Preparation:

  1. Run the tools within your Windows 10 Virtual Machine

Networking

TCP View

TCP View allows you to look at the TCP and UDP connections or streams that have been run on your system. It also allows you to look at the process name and ID associated with the connection on your end. The application is different from Wireshark because it shows more low-level information such as which process is using the open socket. That is very, very valuable information. For every open port and process on your computer, you want to know the process that has it open and the path to the process (where the executable exists on the disk).

Preparation

Download TCP View from the Sysinternals website

Run TCP-View with administrative rights and answer these questions.

SUBMISSION (4 points): Find the connection which has sent the most bytes and identify the following:

svchost.exe

  • Process Name

svchost.exe

  • Path to where the executable exists (include the path and explain what tools were used to find it)

C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe

  • Process ID

3036

  • Protocol

TCP

  • Remote Address

52.159.126.152

  • Remote Port

  • Approximate Bytes Sent

  • Approximate Bytes received

Include all of this information in your lab submission.

WhoIs

Preparation
