Welcome to the Reliant Monitor and Control Center

1 Welcome to the RELIANT Monitor and Control Center


RELIANT helps your organization follow the activities of suspects by monitoring their
communications and making them available to you. When a subscriber that is
defined as a RELIANT target communicates with an associate, RELIANT intercepts
and copies the communication and saves it as a product. RELIANT can intercept
and decode all types of communication from various types of networks.

Your Monitor and Control Center, also known as Operator Workstation, provides
access to intercepted products for monitoring and analysis. Your job as an operator
is to monitor and analyze the content and data of targets' intercepted products, and
add your own input based on these sources.

N OTICE This user guide presents all features of your operator workstation. Some
options may not be available in your system.

RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual 1


Welcome to the Reliant Monitor and Control Center

1.1 Basic Concepts


This manual explains how to use the Operator Workstation to process products. It
uses the terms defined in this section. These options are available and supported
in this version, but may not be available in your system.

Targets and products

Target A target is a subscriber identifier, such as telephone number or


email address, that is defined for network monitoring.
Communications both to and from the target are intercepted.

Targets can be organized into groups and subgroups called cases


and subcases. For example, the case Drug Investigation can
contain a subcase for each suspect, and each subcase can contain
the suspect‟s communication methods (such as email addresses or
IP addresses) as targets.

Product The intercepted communication of a target, such as a telephone


conversation or email.

Product Information related to a product includes the following:


Information
 Information received from the network, such as the start
and end times of the product, initiator and recipient of the
product, and more.
 Storage and processing details, such as decoding status,
location of content, etc.

 Operator input, such as comment, keyword, language


and production status, and the name of the operator who
processed the product.

Processing a The process of listening to or viewing a product, adding input and


Product annotations, and marking it as produced.

Work List A default work list which displays up to 1000 unproduced products
intercepted in the operator's assigned targets in the last 24 hours.
The default work list is configurable per system.

Result Set The list of products that result from a user's query.

Users and user rights

User rights Each user can be assigned different functional rights for his tasks,
either generally, or on a target-specific basis. Therefore, different
users may be able to perform different tasks.

2 RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual


Welcome to the Reliant Monitor and Control Center

Operator The person that processes products using the Operator


Workstation. A single RELIANT system can have many operators.
Each operator may be assigned different user rights, and may
therefore perform different product operations in the Operator
Workstation.

Group Leader The person in charge of a group of operators.

System The person that manages the system, including:


Administrator
 Targets – what is being monitored.

 Users – who can use the Operator Workstations and


which options are available to them.

Product management options - depending on project content and


configuration:

Export/ Export selected products in standard format to network destination.


Download The export destination for each target is determined by the system
administrator.

You define the download destination to a local directory.

Data Decoding Data decoding of raw data products can be performed either
automatically, by the system's decoding server, or selectively by
the user who selects which raw products should be decoded

Rules and RELIANT automatically alerts users to suspect activities of specific


Alerts targets. Define rules to determine which activities are suspect and
therefore require alerts, determine which targets should be
monitored for suspect activities, and define the users to receive
alerts for their assigned targets.

Real-Time products represent communications that are currently taking place.
Real-time products are recorded like other products and can be monitored later at
any time.

You can access real-time communications only if assigned the required right by
your administrator.
 In voice products, you can listen to the call and process it while it is taking
place (see "Accessing a Real-time Product" on page 33). The play, pause and
volume playback options are available, but other options are not available. You
can access a voice product in near real-time, in order to use additional
playback controls, and enter your comments and annotations.
 In SMS products, you can view the target's SMS products sent or received
during the past 30 seconds.
 In data products, you can view a target's most recently decoded products:
 Display time. Data products are displayed until the related stream is
closed. This means you may view decoded products that were decoded
some time ago, but are still displayed. If another system user has deleted
the decoded product and the stream is not yet closed, the product will still
be displayed despite the fact that it is no longer accessible.
 Website, Web page or Chat products are data products that may
progress over time. When you access a chat or Web page you get a
snapshot of the currently processed content. Refresh the product to get an
updated snapshot of the content.
 For other data products, such as VoIP, you can access the product to

6.6 Playing Voice Samples


Voice samples are managed by your system administrator, for the purpose of
comparing a confirmed sample of a target's voice to newly recorded calls. Voice
samples can also apply to additional speakers that may be intercepted, such as
family members, professionals such as lawyers or physicians. Voice samples are
listed in two groups:
 Relevant parties (Alert) - Voice samples of speakers who should be recorded,
such as the suspect, and to identify additional parties of interest in the call.
 Irrelevant parties (Minimize) - Voice samples of speakers who are of less
interest, such as family members, lawyers, etc.
To compare speakers to voice samples:

1 When accessing a product of a target that has linked voice sample files, the
files appear in the Voice Samples tab.

6.7 Splitting/Merging Products


When recording audio content through dedicated lines, you can manage lengthy
audio products by splitting them, and possibly later merging them back into a single
product.
 Split product. You can split any audio product at any point during the audio
content.
 Merge product. You can merge two voice products into one product, with the
following limitations:
 Both products are not active and have completed recording.
 Both products must have the same Produce or Privileged status. This
means that both products must be either produced or unproduced; and both
products must be either privileged or not privileged.

44 RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual


Monitoring Voice Products

 The two products are subsequent products of the same target (they were
received one after the other).
 In the case of non-microphone targets, the two products must originally
have been split from one product

In addition, RELIANT can be configured to automatically split audio recording at


predefined intervals. The recording interval in your system is adjusted according to
your organization's needs, and can be set to up to several hours.

To split a product:

1 Open the product


You can split it during Near Real-Time playback, or during playback of a closed

Monitoring Data Products

7 Monitoring Data Products


Data products include all communications intercepted in a data telecommunication
network.

Raw data communications:

All data communications are the decoded results of a raw data session that may
include multiple data activities of different types. Each raw data session represents
the target's activities in an IP network. At t he time of interception, RELIANT divides
the raw data session into segments for easier handling and decoding. Each
session may be divided into segments, according to one of the following
configurable parameters:
 Time: 20 minutes
 Size: 20 MBytes
 Silence: Ongoing silence, indicating no data activity
Decoded communications:

Different decoding solutions may provide slightly different product information and
content displays:
 Type of target interception criteria: The type of interception criteria used to
define and intercept the target's communication may affect the availability of
certain content and communication information. When the target is defined for
Chat or VoIP interception, RELIANT decodes the intercepted raw data to access
and analyze the communication details. Therefore, the raw data is not stored
and is not available for review.
 Type of intercepted communication network. Different decoding tools apply
to different intercepted networks (ISP, mobile packet data or PSTN). Therefore,
the decoded content and information depend on the source of your system's
data input.
 Back-end decoding versus Front-end decoding:
 Back-end decoding: The raw data is delivered to the monitoring center for
storage and decoding. In this solution, both raw data and the decoded
products are stored and are available for review and operator monitoring. In
this solution, the user can access the raw content to listen to the raw
content.
These options are determined per RELIANT system and are not selected by the
user.

In addition to the product's content and details, the data product provides additional
information about the target's activities such as additional products from the same
login activity, and associated products (see "Viewing Associated Products" on page
70) which are listed within the product's Content tab.

Presence products (see "Presence" on page 52) are separate products that
provide information about the connection of a subscriber to a messaging service,
and provides details about his contact lists, user profiles, etc. This is not a data
communication with other contacts, but shows the subscriber's administration of his
messaging setup.

Monitoring Data Products

7.1 Viewing Content


For most data products, the Content tab displays the following types of content
information, depending on the type of product:
 Content of the communication, together with the parties that participated in it.
The content may be textual messages, Web page, chat or IM activity, etc.
 Identification of participating parties, depending on the type of product. The
following may be displayed: names or nicknames, IP address of participating
PCs, etc.
 Transferred files. The files transferred or received by the target, as in the case
of FTP transfer products or email attachments.
 Link to associated products. Data communications may include several
activities that are linked to each other, but are separate types of
communications. The Content tab provides a link to other decoded products
that are related to the currently viewed product (see "Viewing Associated
Products" on page 70).

In some products, the content of the communication is displayed in a separate tab,


due to the type of product.

7.1.1 Email Content

Intercepted email communications were sent/received by the target, but not


necessarily read by the target. It is possible that the target has not opened or read
the email communication at all.

To access and view email attachments:

 Click the attachment icon of the required file. You can view the attachment
only if the file application is available on your PC. If it is, the image/file is
displayed, together with a print option.
If the required application is not available, a download option appears, allowing
you to download the file and open it in the required application on another
computer.

To change the encoding type of the email content:


 In the email body area, right-click and select the encoding option you require
(see "Modifying the Product's Encoding" on page 64).

Viewing multiple email body content:

In some protocol scenarios, the email product's Content tab may display the
contents of multiple email bodies linked together. In such cases, the encoding
action (see "Modifying the Product's Encoding" on page 64) applies only to the
body content selected for the action.

Learn about:
 Encrypted file attachments (see "Identifying Encrypted Products and
Attachments" on page 76) (marked by a lock icon ).

48 RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual


Monitoring Data Products

7.1.2 Webmail

Any email communications handled in Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo sites are


categorized as webmail type communications. Webmail communications are
displayed twice: Once as a Webmail product that has the look and feel of an email,
and once as a Web product as this is an action performed in a Web page. The
webmail display is applicable only for packet data input type and provides better
query and viewing abilities than the Web product.

Webmail products are intercepted at the time the target accesses them for review,
therefore this is an indication that the target has actually read the communication.
The product is created again for each time that the target accesses the mail, so
you may view several products with the same mail content. For the same reason,
the target may have additional mail communications awaiting his review, but until
he accesses them, RELIANT cannot intercept them.

Encrypted attachments:

In Email, Webmail, and File transfer products, any of the attached files may be
encrypted. In such cases, the encrypted file is marked by a lock icon ( ).
Encrypted files may be of type PGP, Office application files, zip file, etc. Learn
about identifying encrypted products and attachments (on page 76).

Draft Webmails (decoding version 2.0 and up):

When drafting webmails, the target‟s webmail communication may be saved as a


draft copy. Webmails can be saved as a draft intentionally by the target, or, as in
gmail, automatically at a predefined interval of a few minutes during the
connection. This results in several „copies‟ of the webmail prior to delivery of the
communication.

As of decoding version 2.0, RELIANT identifies the draft copy of a target‟s webmail
communication, decodes it and displays it as a Webmail product. This allows
RELIANT users to follow the target‟s communications as they form, and not be
required to wait for the exact time the target received or sent the webmail.

When the final copy of the webmail is sent/delivered, this is added to the target‟s
webmail products too.

The RELIANT Operator Workstation distinguishes between draft and final webmails.
In the Details tab, view the Folder Type field, which indicates that the product is a
Draft.

RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual 49


Monitoring Data Products

Draft
indication

Considerations:

In some cases of „automatic draft‟, any attachment to the webmail is saved in the
first draft copy created after the attachment is linked to the message. Therefore,
previous or subsequent draft copies do not include the attachment, and therefore
not all Webmail products contain the attachment files in addition to the webmail
body.

7.1.3 Webmail Folder

Webmail Folder product displays the list of mails viewed by the target in his
webmail inbox.

The mail list is usually displayed in the Content tab, however, in cases of partial
parsing, the original content is displayed in the Original View tab.

In the Content tab, review the service name and owner of the webmail folder. The
contents of the owner's inbox are displayed, showing the following details.
 Time - indicates date of delivery to the inbox
 From - originator of the mail
 Subject - Subject line of the mail

 Attachment, if any
 Size of the mail
Non-accessed mails are displayed in bold font. Accessed mails are displayed in
regular font.

7.1.4 Chat and Instant Messaging

Instant messaging product represents communications performed in messaging


services such as ICQ, MSN, Yahoo messenger, and others.

Chat room product represents real-time communications between multiple users in


a public Chat room on a Web site or part of an online service such as IRC or eMule
chat.

The message flow displays information about the messaging action.

Real-time display: Chat and IM products represent ongoing activities. You can
access these products in real-time and refresh the display to view recently added
input.

In cases where the name or address of one of the parties is a target, the target
entries are displayed in blue or bold font.

The message flow contains the following details:


 Room name: The room name is displayed only when relevant.
 Event types may be one of the following:
 Join – Party joins the chat/messaging activity
 Leave – Party leaves the chat/messaging activity
 Message – Party sends a message/chat entry
 File - Party performs a file transfer action. See Associated Products (see
"Viewing Associated Products" on page 70) to learn about accessing the file
transfer product.

RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual 51


Monitoring Data Products

Cases of non-intercepted chat/IM communications:

In some communication scenarios, chat/IM communications are performed in peer-


to-peer mode. Depending on network coverage, your system may not intercept
these communications, or may intercept only part of them.

7.1.5 SMS Over Web

7.1.7 File Transfer

The File Transfer protocol is used for lengthy file transfers. Files may be
transferred over FTP (on page 54), Chat and Instant Messaging (on page 51). The
file is separate from the associated communication product because the file is
transferred on a separate TCP connection. The file may also be transferred long
after the associated communication channel has been closed.

The Transferred File section displays the transferred file/s together with transfer
status and direction information.

To access the transferred file/s:


 In the File Name field, click the file link.

Learn about:
 Associated Products (see "Viewing Associated Products" on page 70)
 Encrypted file attachments (see "Identifying Encrypted Products and

7.1.9.2 Web Site, Web Search and Web Products

Web products display the target's access to a Web page of a web site, and the
selections and operations he performed in this page. RELIANT identifies the
following Web products:
 Web Site product: A target's Web activities in a specific Web site result in
multiple Web pages that belong to the same site. RELIANT groups these pages
together according to the URL of the site and displays the target's activities in
the specific site within a single product.
Near real-time viewing: When accessing an ongoing Web site product, you can
refresh the viewer to display the target's recent activities.
 Web Search product: A target's activities within a search site such as Google
or Yahoo are defined as independent actions that have little link with other
search activities within the site. Therefore, RELIANT displays each page of these
sites as a separate product. The sites that provide Web pages are listed in a
predefined list of sites that can be updated according to customer definitions.
Default sites include the following: www.ask.com, www.google.*, search.msn.*,
search.yahoo.*, search.aol.*
 Web product: Any web page that the user accessed for review or action, and
is not linked to other pages of the same URL, and is not part of a known Web
search site. This includes for example video download products, such as
YouTube products, supported as of Decoding version 2.1.
Locating products of interest

Each action within a Web site results in an additional product within RELIANT. When
intercepting and decoding a target's activities within a site, RELIANT also intercepts
the advertisements, images, pictures and other 'additionals' that are available on
the site. This means that for each site you may have multiple intercepted
components.

 Green links - indicate links activated by the target and currently available as
additional products. This means the linked page is available in the system, and
does not necessarily mean the target accessed the page from this page, in this
specific order. In some cases, due to the manner of loading the page, RELIANT
may display some hyperlinks in green and provide access to the page, despite
the fact that the target did not actually use the link.
 Red links - indicate hyperlinks not activated by the target, and not available in
the system as an additional page.

page 64).

Handling missing pictures or frames:

As a result of the data decoding procedure, some web pages may be displayed
with missing content, usually embedded pictures or frames. This occurs because
the links between the page and the embedded content are calculated by scripts,
which are disabled on the workstation for security reasons. The embedded content
can usually be found as a different product type. Search for other products for the
target.

7.1.10 P2P File and P2P Session

The P2P Session and P2P File products represent the target‟s activities within
eMule or Bit-Torrent services. For each action, two products are generated:
 P2P Session - Displays the connection details, user's query, and at times also
the name of the requested file.
 P2P File - Displays the connection and file details.
The actual file that was downloaded is part of the intercepted raw data (if exists),
but is not part of the decoded P2P products. Both products contain metadata
extracted from the related protocols.

P2P Session
 Content tab - Displays the P2P session protocol: eMule or BitTorrent
 Protocol Tab - Displays the user details, and the user's P2P command flow.
For eMule protocol, the command flow also displays the queries generated by
the user. The query details show the string searched by the user.

7.5 Viewing Associated Products


In data communications, the target may perform several activities that are linked to
each other, but are separate types of communications. For example, for
messenger activities the target accesses his messenger service and then sends a
message. This results in two products:
 Presence product (indicating access and management activities)
 Message product.
The two products are associated and are indicated in each of the products to help
you locate linked products.

The associated products of each product are displayed in the Content tab.

The following products may have associated products:

You can locate decoded products and raw data products that are related to each
other, for a better understanding of the target's data session.

7.6.1 Viewing Related Data Products

A target often performs several data activities in a single login to the Internet or to a
cellular packet data provider. These activities result in several products, that are
intercepted in the same data session. For example, if the target was connected to
the Internet for a full week and visited 140 web pages, sent/received 40 emails,
and participated in 2 chat events, each of these items appear as separate products
even though they all took place during one login. If the login is very long or the
target is very active during login, the intercepted activity is divided into segments
for internal processing. You can view the products that belong to the same data
segment to see the activities performed by the target at the time. When you
reprocess a data product, all products in its segment are reprocessed as well.

To view all products from the same data segment:

1 In the product list, right-click the product and select Show Related and then
select Decoded Products. A new tab appears, titled Related Products, and
displays all decoded products of the related segment.

2 In case of multiple related products:

RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual 71


Monitoring Data Products

You can view all related products by generating a query for the target's
communications during the specific login time. The resulting product list
displays the target's activities for that time, and will thus show all activities
performed during that time, and related to the target's activities.

7.6.2 Locating a Decoded Product's Raw Product


 In the result set, right-click the decoded product and select Show Related and
then select Raw Products. A new tab appears, titled Raw Products, and
displays the raw product of the decoded product.

7.6.3 Viewing Raw Data Products (Content Available)

This option is available only in systems that support back-end decoding and store
reconstructed raw data.

The raw data product includes the RF1761 file which is the source raw data used
for processing and reprocessing and for digital signature stamping. It also displays
all IP and UDP connections that started within the data segment, including those
that occurred on a non-standard port.

You can view the raw content of a data segment and page through the raw content
of each of the connections performed by the target during that data link. Depending
on the type of traffic generated by the target, you may find that some types of data
activity were not decoded and are available in the raw data viewer only.

7.7 Accessing and Managing Virus-Infected Products


RELIANT scans intercepted data products for virus infections. When a product is
found to include virus-infected files, or is suspected of virus infection, the product is
marked with a virus indicator .
 Infected products are marked and quarantined. An infected product is marked
with the virus indicator and the infected file is blocked. You can decide how and
where to open the product, if at all. The product includes a list of the identified
viruses. Download or export the product and access the infected files from an
external machine.
 Suspected products are those products which RELIANT failed to scan, and
therefore it is unknown if they are infected or not. A suspected product is
marked with the virus indicator. You can decide if you want to open the product,
and whether to open the product's attached files.
You can perform the following actions:
 Query for infected products. Use the Virus field to query for products with the
following statuses: Infected, Not infected, Not Scanned or Scanning Failed
statuses. The result set displays the virus indicator for any suspected or
infected product.
 Open an infected product and review its contents, file list, and list of viruses. A
warning message appears when opening the product.
 Open suspected products that have not been scanned for viruses due to a scan
failure. A warning message appears. The system allows the user to open the
product and access its attached files.
 Download infected products to the network. When downloading suspect or
infected products, you can choose to download the product in full, or only non-
infected components of the product.

Products suspected of virus-infection are marked in several ways:


 Product List indication.
In the product list, any products that are found to include virus-infected files are
indicated by a virus indicator .
Virus Indication

RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual 75


Monitoring Data Products

 Product Content tab - indicates attachments or transferred files.

Virus
Indicator

 File List tab - indicates the infected file, virus type and file status. Also
indicates encrypted files, if any. Depending on system version, the File List tab
lists all file components of the product.

 Product Information pane - Virus field. The Virus field appears as part of the
product information pane, and displays the product's virus-infection status.

7.8 Identifying Encrypted Products and Attachments


Many data activities can be performed using a secured Web scheme that adds an
additional authentication/encryption layer to the regular resource. This enables
Web users to securely perform sensitive actions such as bank payments or
corporate logons. Products are identified as secured products, and are marked with
an 's' in their name, for example: HTTPS, NNTPS, POP3S, IMAPS, TelnetS.

RELIANT intercepts and stores the original encrypted content and stores it as an
RFC1761 file. You can download the products for further decryption or processing
outside RELIANT, or open the file using Wireshark.

Products with encrypted content or attachments (MSOffice files, zip files, or image
files) are marked as Encrypted'. Only Email, Webmail, and File Transfer product
types may have encrypted attachments.
76 RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual
Monitoring Data Products

Identifying products with encrypted content or attachments:

You can query for encrypted or non-encrypted products using one of the following:
 Search for products with encrypted content or attachments using the
Encryption field in the system query.
 In any result set, use the Encryption column for indication of products marked
as Encrypted.
To view the product content:

1 In the Side field, select Sent or Received to view the communications of a


specific party, or select Sent-Received to view communications of both sides.
2 In the Format field, select Text or Hex to determine the viewing format

RELIANT Monitor and Control Center User Manual 77


Monitoring Data Products

To view the raw content file (RFC1761):

 In the File List tab, click the [Product ID].net file.

Identifying encrypted attachments:

In Email, Webmail, and File transfer products, any of the attached files may be
encrypted. In such cases, the encrypted file is marked by a lock icon ( ).
Encrypted files may be of type PGP, Office application files, zip file, etc.

7.9 Applying Data Decoding


Apply data decoding to a raw product to attain its decoded products. If you select a
decoded product for this action, its related raw product is marked for decoding, and
a message appears indicating it is already decoded.

In systems with Web Decoding solutions, the decoding cannot be rerun, and the
original decoded Web pages remain.

In systems where only predefined targets can be sent for processing, this option
applies only to products of targets that have been defined for selective processing
by the system administrator. In systems where all targets are decoded
automatically, this option enables you to reprocess the raw product. The decoded
product is replaced.

To apply data decoding to a raw product:


1 To decode multiple raw products: In the Work List/result set, in the Home tab
click .
-Or-

To decode a single raw product: Access a raw product and in the Home tab
click .

 Decoded products in the RT bar are not found. The RT bar may display a
decoded product that has already been deleted by another system user. The
display is related to the raw data stream, which is not yet closed, and therefore
the product is still displayed despite the fact that the product has been deleted
by the user.

21.2 Cannot Access Product/Option


There can be several reasons why you cannot access a product or option, such as:
 Another operator has the product open so you can open that product only in
read-only mode. When this happens, the locked toolbar button is
activated.
 The system administrator may have marked the product as privileged, making
several options unavailable to you.
 The product may be marked by the system as a secrecy holder product, with
blocked access.
 If you found the product via FTS, it may have been deleted. Depending on
system load, there may be a delay from the time an Operator deletes an item
and the time the FTS is updated.
 The system administrator may not have assigned all of the target‟s cases to
you, or may not have assigned you the rights to view this product. Cases not
assigned to you are marked classified.
 The system administrator may have defined one or more of your targets as not
being accessible via the Target Status pane.
 The feature may not be included in your system.
 The option may not be relevant to your current work mode.
 Cannot view email attachment. Your compute may not contain the require
application for viewing the attachment file.
 Cannot access Graphic Audio Display of a restored/imported voice product.
You need to reprocess the product in order to create a new graphic audio
display of the voice contents.
 Partial content. A product may have been partially recorded due to prioritization
between targets within the system.

If you need access to a product/option that is unavailable, contact your system


administrator.
