Getting Started With McAfee Host Data Loss Prevention 2008-03-01 McAfee

Though external threats and attacks remain a major concern for CIOs and CSOs, loss of the company's most valued data often is the result of insider actions. Some of these actions are intentional and malicious, but the larger percentage is accidental and unintended, the result of employees' ignorance about data protection policies or their willingness to skirt policies in order to work more productively. In response to this challenge, enterprises are deploying Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions to block sensitive information from leaving the company via unauthorized channels, while still enabling legitimate business activity.

Making Use of SPNEGO in Your J2EE and .NET Client Applications 2008-02-28 IBM

SPNEGO, or the Simple and Protected GSSAPI Negotiation Mechanism, enables a straightforward Single Sign-On (SSO) environment for WebSphere in Microsoft Active Directory environments. In addition to SSO for web applications, SPNEGO can also be used to authenticate both J2EE and .NET web services clients. This paper explain how both J2EE clients and .NET clients can generate client stubs from exported web services, and then engage the SPNEGO protocol to provide SSO authentication to the WebSphere Application Server hosting these services. RedHat Enterprise Linux 4 was used as the OS to host the instance of WebSphere Application Server for the examples. An instance of Windows Server 2003 hosted the Active Directory and a Windows XP instance in the AD domain was used to host the application clients.

Stop Spam, Viruses and Spyware: Endpoint and Perimeter Malware Guide 2008-02-28 Webroot Software

IT systems are under constant, increasingly sophisticated attack. Today's cyber criminals are using highly evolved, blended malware to access corporate and customer data at an alarming rate. Additional layers of protection at the perimeter are essential to combat the sheer volume of this increasing threat and to prevent networks from being clogged by spam.

Read this paper to learn about the prevalence and types of emerging threats and how to recognize them. This paper also provides recommendations on endpoint and perimeter security, as well as advice on addressing budgetary constraints, regulatory requirements, and much more.

How to Protect Business From Malware at the Endpoint and the Perimeter 2008-02-28 Webroot Software

Financial motives are triggering a massive explosion of malware variants and spam designed to evade traditional signature-based detection mechanisms. In the early days, it was all about the destructive nature of virus. Today, however, IT management must contend with highly sophisticated spyware. Keyloggers, rootkits and Trojans are the fundamental building blocks of third generation malware that is delivered via spam and infected Web sites. The number of possible variants created for this malware is unlimited and is contributing to exponential growth that is clogging both computers and networks. Computers running slower than usual, rapidly shrinking free space on the hard disk, slower Internet connection due to increased network traffic, or applications starting themselves could be signs of an infection.

IT Manager Webcast: Dynamic IT and Security (Part 4 of 5): Identity and Access (Level 200) 2008-02-26 Microsoft

There is more pressure than ever on IT departments today. The bulk of IT budgets are spent just "treading water," rather than adding new business value. Microsoft is focused on helping customers flip that equation through a more dynamic IT infrastructure. The attendee of this webcast will learn how the Microsoft identity and access solutions enable to better secure the business's critical IT resources.

TechNet Webcast: How Microsoft IT Uses Forefront Client Security (Level 200) 2008-02-26 Microsoft

The attendee of this webcast will learn how Microsoft has deployed Microsoft Forefront Client Security on approximately 50,000 machines. It reviews Microsoft IT's experience with Forefront Client Security, and also discuss architectural considerations in deploying Forefront Client Security at Microsoft.

Why You Need Email Encryption: Use Case Scenarios 2008-02-26 Proofpoint

"Identity theft is a top concern for consumers right now, so we can't let their credit card information get into the wrong hands. Proofpoint is extremely accurate at detecting any sensitive information that's being sent out and it allows us to automatically encrypt that data so it's always safe." - Steven Romero, Systems Engineer, Outback Steakhouse

DSS, GLBA, HIPAA, OMB, PCI, and PIIG are just a few of the standards and regulations that place additional constraints on how data is stored, processed, and transmitted. Adopting best practices for protecting the sensitive or private information valued by your company, customers, employees and partners adds a new complexity to email security.

Outbound email and other electronic communications (such as web-based email, blog postings, FTP and other messaging streams) pose a significant risk for data loss or data leakage. Solutions to mitigate this risk must include easy to use, policy-based encryption to make it simple to securely communicate with customers and partners.

In this web seminar, Proofpoint product manager Andrew Vu presents real world case studies about organizations that have deployed Proofpoint's unified data loss prevention and email encryption solutions.

TechNet Webcast: Windows Network Policy Server Fundamentals (Level 300) 2008-02-25 Microsoft

This webcast talks about Network Policy Server (NPS) in Windows Server 2008, and how to implement Network Access Protection (NAP). It starts with an introduction to the Network Policy Server, and shows how it plays a valuable role in maintaining the integrity of an internal computer network. The webcast also explain how to deploy and configure NAP, how NAP works, and how it employs NPS. The attendee will learn to enable debug tracing, and how it can be used for monitoring and troubleshooting connectivity problems.

Formal Verification of Firewall Policies 2008-02-23 Michigan State University

Firewalls are the mainstay of enterprise security and the most widely adopted technology for protecting private networks. The quality of protection provided by a firewall directly depends on the quality of its policy (i.e., configuration). Due to the lack of tools for verifying firewall policies, most firewalls on the Internet have been plagued with policy errors. A firewall policy error either creates security holes that will allow malicious traffic to sneak into a private network or blocks legitimate traffic and disrupts normal business processes, which in turn could lead to irreparable, if not tragic, consequences. This paper proposes a firewall verification tool in this paper. This tool takes as input a firewall policy and a given property, then outputs whether the policy satisfies the property.

Novell Zenworks Endpoint Security Management: Total Control from a Single Console 2008-02-21 Novell

Unauthorized access to networks, lost or stolen laptops and other mobile hardware, and theft of proprietary information or intellectual property accounted for more than 74 percent of IT financial losses last year. In particular, security on laptop/mobile devices is below the standard required to keep your information safe.
Read this white paper to see how Novell Zenworks acts as a single console solution to create an enforce security policies for all components of your perimeter.
