whitepaper Overcoming the Obstacles: Creating Cooperative Partnerships in Securing the Exchange of Data2009-10-07 PKWare
  Best practices in today's marketplace dictate that data entrusted to affiliates within a data-exchange process should be protected as it is transmitted, wherever it resides. However, some parties are more committed to securing information than others. This creates a problem that security-minded companies, typically the primary enterprise within the data-exchange group, have been struggling with for years - how to control the security of data at the endpoints in the data-exchange.

whitepaper A Survey of BGP Security Issues and Solutions2009-10-03 Princeton University
  As the Internet's de facto interdomain routing protocol, the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is the glue that holds the disparate parts of the Internet together. A major limitation of BGP is its failure to adequately address security. Recent high-profile outages and security analyses clearly indicate that the Internet routing infrastructure is highly vulnerable. Moreover, the design of BGP and the ubiquity of its deployment have frustrated past efforts at securing interdomain routing. This paper considers the current vulnerabilities of the interdomain routing system and surveys both research and standardization efforts relating to BGP security. The paper explores the limitations and advantages of proposed security extensions to BGP, and explains why no solution has yet struck an adequate balance between comprehensive security and deployment cost.

whitepaper Configuring the Relay Server With Apache Using SSL2009-10-02 iAnywhere Solutions
  Secure data transmission and data availability are integral components of corporate information systems in today's wireless and occasionally connected environments. The need for data security is at an all time high as data breaches and sensitive information thefts are becoming a common occurrence, and combined with the demand for always available data, corporate data systems are being pushed to new limits. MobiLink already provides a highly scalable session-based synchronization system that allows bidirectional data transfer between a main database, called the consolidated database, and many remote databases. The consolidated database can be one of several ODBC-compliant databases, including SQL Anywhere, Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise, Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL and IBM DB2 (Mainframe).

whitepaper Mitigation of SAP Authorization Risks2009-10-02 SECUDE
  SAP ERP systems are the core of many medium and large businesses these days. These systems administer Finance, Payroll, Customer Relationship Management, Human Resources and so on. Control of these systems is handled by a concept called SAP Authorizations (also referred to as authorizations or authorization objects). These authorizations establish what are referred to as roles. Roles determine exactly what permissions a given user has in a SAP system. It is a popular opinion amongst SAP experts that defining and maintaining authorizations is one of the largest and most complex tasks of a SAP system implementation. When authorizations are not properly managed, SAP security suffers. Instead of system being secured like a solid wall, it is more like a slice of Swiss cheese.

whitepaper HIPAA Security Provisions: Is Your Network Ready for a Physical?2009-10-01 Tripwire
  The security-focused Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) federal regulation became effective April 2005, requiring many companies to review the health of their systems that create, receive, transmit or maintain health information. If your company is subject to HIPAA, is it prepared to meet the requirements of the Security Rule? This paper details:
  • The who, what, and why of HIPAA
  • Security requirements under the HIPAA Statute, Privacy Rule, and Security Rule
  • Deadlines, penalties, and sanctions for noncompliance
  • HIPAA Security Rule Standards
  • How to maintain network health through independent configuration auditing

whitepaper Financial Transactions and Personal Data Security - Is Your Customers#$# Data Safe?2009-10-01 Grant Thornton International
  The risk associated with collecting and holding individual personal data for a Money Service Business (MSB) is both very real and very serious. In 2007, a major Canadian bank lost a computer backup file that contained individual personal data of 470,000 of its customers.3 In 2008, Statistics Canada confirmed that a theft of completed census questionnaires had occurred.4 And as recently as August 2009, the US Justice Department charged three men in connection with orchestrating the theft of over 130 million credit and debit card numbers.5 These examples - and many more like them - have sounded the warning bell to other organizations that customer privacy is not to be taken lightly.

whitepaper An Enhanced Security Protocol for Fast Mobile IPv62009-10-01 Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers
  Off late, Kempf and Koodli have proposed a security protocol for Fast Mobile IPv6 (FMIPv6). Through the SEcure Neighbor Discovery (SEND) protocol, it achieves secure distribution of a handover key, and consequently becomes a security standard for FMIPv6. However, it is still vulnerable to redirection attacks. In addition, due to the SEND protocol, it suffers from denial of service attacks and expensive computational cost. This paper presents a security protocol, which enhances Kempf-Koodli's one with the help of the AAA infrastructure.
