ICMP is the fundamental protocol in network diagnostics. During my second year at university
I discovered an old article in Phrack magazine that used this protocol to break out of restricted
networks. Researchers found that through crafting specific ICMP packets they could create 2-way
traffic. The concept preys on the inconvenience caused by blocking ICMP.

This presentation aims to show the simplicities of deploying an ICMP Tunnel and discus the
malicious application of such a tunnel.

And as always...
  If you have been, thanks for reading
