Identification de l'utilisation des réseaux P2P «BitTorrent Vs IPFS»

Abstract

BitTorrent and IPFS are the most popular peer-to-peer networks widely usedfor storing and sharing files. However, this popularity also has its consequences,especially in terms of security vulnerabilities and bandwidth saturation. Our projecaims to detect and block the use of the peer-to-peer network within a corporatnetwork. For this, an in-depth analysis of the network traffic packets was carried ouusing the packet analysis software Wireshark in order to extract the digital printspecific to BitTorrent and IPFS. These digital prints are then implemented throughpersonalized rules in an IDS/IPS Suricata intrusion detection and prevention system. The results obtained during the tests carried out are encouraging, thus confirming theffectiveness of our approach.
