The Importance of Application Security | 2008-03-01 12:24:44 | Symantec |
| Application security has been a growing discipline in the IT world for about a decade. Not long ago, knowledge about securing applications came from a select few independent researchers, and resources for implementation were scarce. Through the years, more and more resources have become available as security expertise and toolsets have found their way to a wider population of technologists. Over the past five years, general knowledge of application security criteria has widened, making it rare that applications developers do not consider basic security aspects such as authentication and access control, among others. | |||

Managing and Securely Determining Security Clearance | 2008-03-18 | Isode |
| Access controls based on Security Labels are made by matching the Security Label against the Security Clearance of the user or location for which the access control check is being made. In order for this check to be valid, it is essential that the correct value of the Security Clearance is used. If an incorrect value of the Security Clearance (e.g., a forged one) was used, the access control check would be worthless. This paper looks at how to ensure that the correct Security Clearance is used, and the role of directory in achieving this. | |||

Regional Engineering Firm Cuts Virus Incidents 100%, Remote Management Costs by 50% | 2008-03-06 | Microsoft |
| Sebago needed a remote access and presentation virtualization solution that would meet its growing security and performance requirements.

Rather than search for a custom presentation virtualization solution, Somma turned to Sebago's stalwart IT partner, WinXnet, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, to recommend a secure and high-performing solution that could clean up its remote access issues and reinforce its network. WinXnet recommended deploying a test server using Windows Server 2008. Over a week, WinXnet deployed Windows Server 2008 and its Terminal Services suite onto an Intel-based Dell 2950 computer.
