Personal Firewalls for Administrators and Remote Users

Personal Firewalls for Administrators and Remote Users
| 1969-12-31 00:00:00 | | 0 | Network Security

While corporate system administrators spend lots of time thinking about enterprise firewall systems for their in-house employees, a vulnerability that is often overlooked is the remote employee's unprotected computer system, the unprotected computers of mobile laptop users (employees on the road) and all those unprotected but networked handheld devices. At the same time, many home computer users who have always relied on high speed Internet access don't realize that without a personal firewall, they too are quite vulnerable to intrusion and attacks. This book is designed to explain how personal firewalls work and how to determine which type of firewall works best in a given situation. Yeo starts with an intro to security basics -basic data protection measures (passwords, virus software, encryption, and firewalls) and reviews common vulnerabilities and issues with the always-on Internet. Yeo then explains protection methods used by firewalls in general - proxy server firewalls, packet filters, signature-based firewalls and stateful inspection-based firewalls while examining strengths and weaknesses of each type. She then explains how each type of protection method is implemented in a `personal` firewall, the various products including Black Ice Defender, Zone Alarm, Linux iptables that use a given firewall method, and the pros and cons of relying on this method in a personal firewall. An entire chapter is devoted to maintenance of personal firewalls.

User review
Learn some effective paranoia
If you are using a local machine and are not currently using a personal firewall, then this is a book you must read. Furthermore, if you believe your security worries are over because you are running a firewall, then you also must read this book.
The role of firewalls in computer security is only one of the topics covered. Other points are the limitations of firewalls, some of the tactics used by hackers to break into systems and how some of the features of firewalls are implemented. These topics are critical to the effective use of a firewall in the securing of a personal system. Like most other instances of complex technology, it is necessary to understand some of the inner workings of firewalls if you are to use them efficiently. Also, this will help you understand the security holes that they do not cover, or may not cover if improperly configured. In many ways, this is the most important information found in the book.
In computer security, a false sense of security is the worst position to be in. To have any valid sense of security, you must also be paranoid, trusting no one and no thing until proven otherwise. After reading this book, you will still be paranoid, even after installing a firewall. However, at least now you will know many of the things that you should be paranoid about.

User review
Perfect for the small office owner wondering about firewalls
What a fascinating idea, a book about personal firewalls. The book tries to do a review TCP, the principles of information security and what firewalls are and by trying to cover too much fails to meet the promise of its title. It doesn't cover personal firewalls in any depth, but it does have an important purpose. There are a number of small business and home office owners that simply do not understand the importance of a firewall or a personal firewall. The language in the book is clear, friendly and approachable. The work is designed to be understood and is a quick read, which is important for a small business owner that will only invest so much time learning about firewalls and security. I learned about a firewall I had never heard of, Kerio, but the book doesn't cover Tiny, one of the most important personal firewalls. For someone in information security already, this is probably two stars, but for someone with a small office wondering what a firewall is and if they need one, I would be very comfortable recommending this book. Lisa Yeo has the potential to be a great writer, she seems to have a knack for covering a topic with just the number of words needed. I would encourage her to try again, personal firewalls is a topic that needs to be covered, but next time do it with a strong technical review team.

The book layout is one of the better jobs I have seen, the font is easy on the eyes and large enough to actually read. They do a fascinating trick where code examples and notes are allowed to extend further into the left margin than the text of the book. This serves to break up the text and draws your attention to the figures, code examples and notes.

Cryptography: Theory and Practice

Douglas Stinson, "Cryptography: Theory and Practice "
CRC-Press | 1995-05-17 | ISBN: 0849385210 | 434 pages | CHM | 14,5 MB

Douglas R. Stinson's Cryptography: Theory and Practice is a mathematically intensive examination of cryptography, including ciphers, the Data Encryption Standard (DES), public key cryptography, one-way hash functions, and digital signatures. Stinson's explication of "zero-sum proofs"--a process by which one person lets another person know that he or she has a password without actually revealing any information--is especially good.
If you are new to the math behind cryptography but want to tackle it, the author covers all of the required background to understand the real mathematics here. Cryptography includes extensive exercises with each chapter and makes an ideal introduction for any math-literate person willing to get acquainted with this material.

By Bruce Middleton, "Cyber Crime Investigator's Field Guide, Second Edition"

Many excellent hardware and software products exist to protect our data communications sytems, but security threats dictate that they must be further enhanced. Many laws implemented during the past 15 years have provided law enforcement with more teeth to take a bite out of cyber crime, but there is still a need for individuals who know how to investigate computer network security incidents. Organizations demand experts with both investigative talents and a technical knowledge of how cyberspace really works. Cyber Crime Investigator's Field Guide, Second Edition provides the investigative framework that needs to be followed, along with information about how cyberspace works and the tools that reveal the who, what, when, where, why, and how in the investigation of cyber crime. This volume offers a valuable Q&A by subject area, an extensive overview of recommended reference materials, and a detailed case study. Appendices highlight attack signatures, UNIX/Linux commands, Cisco PIX commands, port numbers targeted by trojan horses, and more.

LAN Switch Security: What Hackers Know About Your Switches

A practical guide to hardening Layer 2 devices and stopping campus network attacks
Contrary to popular belief, Ethernet switches are not inherently secure. Security vulnerabilities in Ethernet switches are multiple: from the switch implementation, to control plane protocols (Spanning Tree Protocol [STP], Cisco® Discovery Protocol [CDP], and so on) and data plane protocols, such as Address Routing Protocol (ARP) or Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). LAN Switch Security explains all the vulnerabilities in a network infrastructure related to Ethernet switches. Further, this book shows you how to configure a switch to prevent or to mitigate attacks based on those vulnerabilities. This book also includes a section on how to use an Ethernet switch to increase the security of a network and prevent future attacks.

Divided into four parts, LAN Switch Security provides you with steps you can take to ensure the integrity of both voice and data traffic traveling over Layer 2 devices. Part I covers vulnerabilities in Layer 2 protocols and how to configure switches to prevent attacks against those vulnerabilities. Part II addresses denial-of-service (DoS) attacks on an Ethernet switch and shows how those attacks can be mitigated. Part III shows how a switch can actually augment the security of a network through the utilization of wirespeed access control list (ACL) processing and IEEE 802.1x for user authentication and authorization. Part IV examines future developments from the LinkSec working group at the IEEE. For all parts, most of the content is vendor independent and is useful for all network architects deploying Ethernet switches.
