 This guide for network and system administrators, security managers,
and software developers describes the author's approach to network
security. Network security monitoring (NSM) combines auditing,
vulnerability assessment, intrusion detection and prevention, and
incident response to overcome the limitations of devices such as
firewalls and intrusion detection systems. Security consultant Bejtlich
explains how to use a variety of open-source tools to mine network
traffic for data and describes best practices for evaluating monitoring
vendors and deploying an NSM architecture. Tools for generating
arbitrary packets, manipulating traffic, and conducting reconnaissance
are also evaluated. Security professionals and administrators now have access to one of the
most valuable resources for learning best practices for network
perimeter security. Inside Network Perimeter Security, Second Edition
is your guide to preventing network intrusions and defending against
any intrusions that do manage to slip through your perimeter. This
acclaimed resource has been updated to reflect changes in the security
landscape, both in terms of vulnerabilities and defensive tools.
Coverage also includes intrusion prevention systems and wireless
security. You will work your way through fortifying the perimeter,
designing a secure network, and maintaining and monitoring the security
of the network. Additionally, discussion of tools such as firewalls,
virtual private networks, routers and intrusion detection systems make Inside Network Perimeter Security, Second Edition a valuable resource for both security professionals and GIAC Certified Firewall Analyst certification exam candidates. Today’s networks incorporate more security features than ever before,
yet hacking grows more common and more severe. Technology alone is not
the answer. You need the knowledge to select and deploy the technology
effectively, and the guidance of experts to develop a comprehensive
plan that keeps your organization two steps ahead of mischief and
thievery. Active Defense: A Comprehensive Guide to Network Security
gives you precisely the knowledge and expertise you’re looking for.
You’ll work smarter by day, and sleep easier by night. Coverage

 Your first step into the world of TCP/IP networking
- No TCP/IP experience required
- Learn TCP/IP basics with this reader-friendly guide
- Use hands-on activities to reinforce concepts and understand TCP/IP
- Employ real-world practices to understand the practical benefits of the
TCP/IP suite
With the commercialization of the Internet, TCP/IP has gone from a counter-culture
protocol used in academia and government research facilities to mainstream —
and Main Street — in less than 10 years. A vast number of people rely on
the Internet and on TCP/IP to conduct their business, stay in touch with others,
or just aimlessly explore cyberspace. The majority of those users do not understand,
appreciate, or know what TCP/IP is, or even what it really does for them. This
book will change that!
This book explores TCP/IP in a reader-friendly manner that does not presume
an existing base of knowledge. The reader is introduced to the concept of packetized
data transfer, open networking, reference models, and standards bodies. This
forms the context for introducing the architecture of the TCP/IP protocol suite.
The TCP/IP protocol suite is then dissected so that the reader can appreciate
its components, their functions, and their respective uses. Lastly, the book
takes a look at some of the services that are either native to the TCP/IP protocol
suite or enabled by it. These services are examined from the user's perspective,
so they appreciate what tools they can use both implicitly and explicitly on
a TCP/IP network.  Pocket PC Network Programming is the resource
developers need to exploit the power of mobile technology and
high-speed wireless connections. This book is a comprehensive tutorial
and reference for writing network applications on Pocket PC 2002 and
Pocket PC 2002 Phone Edition devices. It explains how the Pocket PC
communicates with the Internet, with other mobile devices, and with
networks. It teaches developers the basics of Pocket PC telephony,
synchronization, and messaging.
Pocket PC Network Programming
begins with a guide to writing applications that communicate over the
Internet and then explores how to use Pocket PC devices with
Windows-based networks, how these devices communicate over serial and
infrared, and how they utilize Remote Access Services (RAS). The focus
then shifts to the Pocket PC 2002 Phone Edition before turning to the
building of applications designed for synchronization with a desktop
computer. The final chapters cover the Pocket Outlook Object Model, the
Mail API, and the .NET Compact Framework. |
