Description

     Security is the hottest topic in IT, as well as everywhere else. The past four significant Internet worm attacks alone have cost companies more than $10 billion in repairs and lost productivity. And as hackers continue to discover new ways to exploit vulnerable networks, the need for up-to-date security information grows. This new edition of the highly acclaimed and best-selling "Mastering Network Security" provides a systematic and practical approach to assessing threats to the network and implementing workable and effective security measures to avert them. The coverage ranges from physical network security to data theft and viruses.

     Expertise is what makes hackers effective. It�s what will make you effective, too, as you fight to keep them at bay. Mastering Network Security has been fully updated to reflect the latest developments in security technology, but it does much more than bring you up to date. More importantly, it gives you a comprehensive understanding of the threats to your organization�s network and teaches you a systematic approach in which you make optimal use of the technologies available to you. 

Coverage includes:

• Understanding security from a topological perspective
• Configuring Cisco router security features
• Selecting and configuring a firewall
• Configuring Cisco�s PIX firewall
• Configuring an intrusion detection system
• Providing data redundancy
• Configuring a Virtual Private Network

Description

     Understand, anticipate, and prevent network security breaches. "Mastering Network Security" offers a comprehensive look at the security issues that you face as the guardian of your company's systems and data. This book provides practical solutions for identifying, assessing, and preventing external and internal threats to your network - whether you're working with NT, NetWare, Unix, or a multi-vendor environment.

     In Mastering Network Security, Chris Brenton presents a complete portrait of all the things that can go wrong with a computer network and provides a thorough discussion of the tools available to counteract them. This book proceeds to explain how malicious software, external attackers, angry insiders, software bugs, and other evil entities can bring down a system. Most of the focus here, however, is on system attacks from the outside. Brenton devotes much attention to the tools you can use to thwart attackers.

     This book walks the reader through a security audit and the process of developing an effective security policy. While some of the author's advice in this area may seem like common sense, it's helpful to have the many related issues summarized. Then, on the theory that it's easier to secure territory you know well, Brenton provides an overview of internetworking technologies--notably, Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)--and their inherent security characteristics.
