Implementing Network Traffic Analysis with Arkime

When to Use

  • When deploying or configuring implementing network traffic analysis with arkime capabilities in your environment
  • When establishing security controls aligned to compliance requirements
  • When building or improving security architecture for this domain
  • When conducting security assessments that require this implementation

Prerequisites

  • Familiarity with network security concepts and tools
  • Access to a test or lab environment for safe execution
  • Python 3.8+ with required dependencies installed
  • Appropriate authorization for any testing activities

Instructions

  1. Install dependencies: pip install requests
  2. Configure Arkime viewer URL and credentials.
  3. Run the agent to query Arkime sessions and analyze traffic:
    • Search sessions by IP, port, protocol, or expression
    • Download PCAP data for forensic analysis
    • Detect C2 beaconing via connection interval analysis
    • Identify DNS tunneling through query length statistics
    • Flag connections to known-bad TLS certificate issuers
python scripts/agent.py --arkime-url https://arkime.local:8005 --user admin --password secret --output arkime_report.json

Examples

Beaconing Detection

Source: 10.1.2.50 -> 185.220.101.34:443
Sessions: 288 over 24 hours
Avg interval: 300s, Jitter: 4.2%
Verdict: HIGH confidence C2 beaconing (jitter < 5%)
