In recent years, peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have gained more popularity in the form of file-sharing applications, such as uTorrent and eMule, that use BitTorrent and eDonkey protocols. With such popularity comes security risks and external attacks; the latter is often associated with information hacking. In this paper, we will introduce a new way to monitor and detect the use of each of the P2P applications within the corporate network. Based on the inspection of traffic packets in order to extract digital signatures of these applications using the open-source packet analysis program "Wireshark," in addition to using the well-known Snort intrusion detection system (IDS) with a number of adequate and new rules, this solution can allow us to receive powerful warning messages that detect the presence of P2P applications inside the network. We implemented our rules in Snort IDS. Over a period of time, this solution allowed us to achieve 96% effectiveness in detecting the presence of P2P applications.
