Effective email policies: why enforcing proper use is critical to security 2008-04-01 Sophos

The unmonitored and unguarded use of email by employees poses a multitude of risks to organizations.

A comprehensive, transparent and enforceable email acceptable use policy (AUP), combined with robust email security solutions, dramatically reduces exposure to these risks. This paper provides practical guidance on developing and enforcing an email AUP that meets the combined requirements of an organization's IT, HR and legal departments.

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. Somma and his team were focused on performance, cost of additional hardware, operating system capabilities, interoperability with its existing technologies, as well as Sebago's reliance on Websense for third-party Internet content filtering. 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.

Overcoming Mobile Enterprise Security Challenges 2008-03-01 SOTI

Increasingly powerful feature sets and rich functionality are driving the wide-spread use of mobile devices by banks, security and law enforcement agencies, government authorities and other security conscious organizations. Mobile workforces are taking advantage of mobile devices to remotely access confidential emails, spreadsheets, databases, customer data, order information, credit card data, medical history, and patient information among other sensitive corporate data. Mobile devices are now the most vulnerable entry points for malware and other threats to the corporate network to which they are connected. Additionally, mobile devices are increasingly more dispersed geographically and at the forefront of operations in the field. So is sensitive corporate data!

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.
