2.2.2.4 Target List – Target Licensing
The number of FinSpy Targets which can be monitored on the system is part of the license information which is imported on the FinSpy Master during the installation.
After infection, the FinSpy Target has no associated license and all its collecting data features are disabled. The FinSpy Master will allocate a license to the newly infected FinSpy Target, if available.
If there is no license available, the FinSpy Agent can still see the FinSpy Target in the Target List and can only work limited with it until an existing infection is removed.
Previously gathered data can still be analyzed.
Once the license is installed on the FinSpy Target all the features become available and the user gains full control over the FinSpy Target.
If all the licenses are used, the new infected FinSpy Targets will be shown as disabled until a new license is available.
To free a license, an existing infection has to be removed from a licensed FinSpy Target. The infection can be removed immediately from an online FinSpy Target or can be scheduled for removal from an offline FinSpy Target. Either way the license will be freed immediately and allocated to an unlicensed target.

FinSpy Master – Remote and Offline Master Configuration
It is possible to setup a Remote Mode and Offline Mode. They basically split the FinSpy Master functionalities in two FinSpy Masters with complementary limited functionalities.
The Offline Master has the recorded files in the database and the FinSpy Agent can process data while the Remote Master is contacted by the targets and stores the received, encrypted recordings. The recorded files have to be imported with the Agent to the Offline Master. This gives a higher security to the Offline Master if remote attacks are conducted.
2.7.1 Remote Master Configuration
To setup the Remote Master the following parameter must be added into the “finspy_master.cfg” file.
Set Remote Master Mode:

To setup the Offline Master the following parameter must be added into the “finspy_master.cfg” file.
Set Offline Master Mode:
FIN_MASTER_MODE = OFFLINE
Assume FIN_TARGET_PROXY_1 values from Remote Master
FIN_TARGET_PROXY_1 = (same values as Remote Master)
To activate the changes, the FinSpy Offline Master needs to be restarted:

FinSpy Master – Monitoring
There is a monitoring daemon installed on the system which checks and if necessary restarts applications like FinSpy Master and FinSpy Proxy.
The software being used is “monit”. Monit automatically checks if the defined services are running.
FinSpy Master and FinSpy Proxy need to be configured first.
In the following “finspy_xxx” is mentioned which stands for both commands:
finspy_master
finspy_proxy
Configure “monit” daemon to monitor finspy_xxx:
# sudo monit monitor finspy_xxx
# sudo /etc/init.d/monit restart
Check if finspy_xxx is running:
# sudo monit summary
The following results may appear.
Successful
:
Process ‘finspy_proxy’
Failed
:
Process ‘finspy_proxy’
Process ‘finspy_proxy’ running not monitored
Does not exist

FinSpy Master – Port forwarding
It is necessary that the FinSpy Master is able to retrieve packets from the internet through a Router or
Firewall. Normally, Router or Firewalls will block TCP packets which come from outside. That means that some ports on the Router or Firewall must be forwarded to the internal network. This is a so called Port
Forwarding.
Every Router or Firewall handles this differently. Please check the corresponding manual on how to do this.
In the following example a Linksys Router was chosen. In this case our FinSpy Master has the IP
“192.168.1.102” and should retrieve packets on the Ports 21, 25, 80 and 443.

FinSpy Master – Dynamic DNS
If the FinSpy Master doesn’t have the chance of retrieving a public static IP address, a dynamic DNS can be used. A dynamic DNS service allows users to have a subdomain that points to a computer with regularly-changing IP addresses.
On the FinSpy Master this can be realized with a small application called “ddclient”. “ddclient” is used to update dynamic DNS entries for accounts on Dynamic DNS Network Services' free DNS service. Various free DNS services can be used like DynDNS.com
To use “ddclient” a registration is required on the page.
To install ddclient:
# sudo aptitude install ddclient
It will ask several questions during the installation.
Which service shall be used:
Username which is registered on the service:
Auto retrieval of the IP address:

Updating host:
After the installation, everything should run fine now with the host finspy-test.dyndns.com.
If some configuration needs to be changed, the configuration file is located at “/etc/ddclient.conf” and should look like this: protocol=dyndns2 use=web, web=checkip.dyndns.com, web-skip='IP Address' server=members.dyndns.org login=finspy-test password='dfUc!45XfP'

FINUSB SUITE

The FinSpy Relay will handle and relay all connections from the FinSpy Target to the FinSpy Master. The
FinSpy Relay acts as a proxy between those two endpoints. This will help by not having a direct connection from the FinSpy Target to the FinSpy Master. Instead, the FinSpy Relay can reside in any place in the world.
The FinSpy Relay is a small program which can be installed on most Windows and Linux Operating
Systems.

FinSpy Relay – Configuration Options
The FinSpy Relay runs according to the settings from the “relay.cfg” file which can be found in the following directories.
Windows:
Linux:
In the same directory of the binaries where FinSpy Relay was installed
/usr/local/ffrelay/data/
The “relay.cfg” file contains the following settings:
Name Description
CFG_TARGET_PORTS
Contains the ports where the FinSpy Relay “listens” for incoming FinSpy Target connections, e.g.:
CFG_TARGET_PORTS = 1111, 1112, 1113
CFG_NEXT_HOP_1
Contains the Hostname and ports where the Relay should connect to (next
FinSpy Relay or FinSpy Master/Proxy), e.g.:
CFG_NEXT_HOP_1 = 192.168.0.49, 1111
CFG_SOCKET_TIMEOUT Contains the socket read/write timeout in seconds, e.g.:
CFG_SOCKET_TIMEOUT = 10
The default template of the “relay.cfg” which comes with the FinSpy Relay:
# Configuration file for the Relay Module
# list of ports for incoming (target-side) connections:
CFG_TARGET_PORTS = 2000
# Next hops to connect (relays, proxy)
CFG_NEXT_HOP_1 = hostname, 2050
# socket read/write-timeout (in seconds)
CFG_SOCKET_TIMEOUT = 10

3.2.3 Monitoring
Along with FinSpy Relay comes also a FinSpy Relay Monitoring, which takes care of starting/stopping the
Relay. If the FinSpy Relay crashes then the FinSpy Relay Monitoring will restart it. The FinSpy Relay
Monitoring is a Windows-Service. If the FinSpy Relay Monitoring service is stopped, the service will then also stop the FinSpy Relay. If the FinSpy Relay Monitoring is started it will start the Relay.
The FinSpy Relay Monitoring binary and service name is: FFRelayW(.exe)
The FinSpy Relay binary name is: FFRelay(.exe)
To control the FinSpy Relay Monitoring open the Services window:
Control Panel\Administrative Tools\Services
Right-click on the Service and chose whatever action is needed (e.g. “Stop”):
If the FinSpy Relay Monitoring service is stopped, the Relay is also stopped.
To start the FinSpy Relay Monitoring the FFRelayW service needs to be right-clicked and “Start” chosen:

To check if FFRelayW and FFRelay are running, the Task-Manager needs to be opened and the
“Processes” Tab must be active:
The FFRelayW process is running in the SYSTEM context as it is a service and because the FFRelay is started by the service it runs also in the SYSTEM context, meaning none of them run as the current user.
In order to see all the processes running on a machine click “Show processes from all users”:
