The Design of Efficient Internetwork Authentication for Ubiquitous Wireless Communications 2006-06-21 01:00:38 University of Maryland

The security problem is one of the major challenges in internetworking. To date, most research on internetwork authentication has focused on centralized authentication approaches, where the home network participates in each authentication process. For high latency between the home and visiting networks, such approaches tend to be inefficient. This paper describes chained authentication, which requires collaboration between adjacent networks without involvement of the home network. After categorizing chained protocols, the paper proposes a novel design of chained authentication methods under 3G-WLAN internetworking.

Troubleshooting RPC Over HTTPS (Part 2) 2006-10-20 01:00:16 TechGenix

RPC over HTTPS is one of the most useful features of Exchange 2003 and Outlook 2003 and one of the most frustrating. This paper looks into problems that occur with SSL certificates, RPC proxy and Exchange server configurations. RPC over HTTPS is not overly difficult to implement, however there are a few places where things can go wrong. In order to troubleshoot RPC over HTTPS issues there are a few steps to take to solve the most common issues explain in this paper.

Lightweight Email Signatures 2006-06-16 IBM

This paper presents Lightweight Email Signatures (LES), a simple cryptographic architecture for authenticating email. LES is an extension of DKIM, the recent IETF e ort to standardize domain-based email signatures. LES shares DKIM's ease of deployment: they both use the DNS to distribute a single public key for each domain. Importantly, LES supports common uses of email that DKIM jeopardizes: multiple email personalities firewalled ISPs, incoming-only email forwarding services, and other common uses that often require sending email via a thirdparty SMTP server. In addition, LES does not require DKIM's implied intra-domain mechanism for authenticating users when they send email. LES provides these features using identity-based signatures.

Oracle Extended Identity Management Ecosystem: Reference Architecture 2006-07-04 04:31:09 Oracle

Many organizations of all sizes have already begun to realize the benefits of their cored Identity Management (IdM) deployments consisting of directory services, Access Management, and User Provisioning. However, silos of security infrastructure comprised of elements such as strong authentication, physical access, and network security continue to be deployed and managed outside of the management framework of the core IdM infrastructure. These silos represent cracks in the armor of benefits that IdM delivers and lead to cost leakage and lower levels of compliance and security. The Oracle Extended Identity Management Ecosystem helps close these gaps by delivering testing, certification, and support of the interoperability points between those technology areas and the core Oracle Identity Management infrastructure.

"Going Up, Going Down!" - A Review of Quarter 2/2006 2006-09-15 10:47:40 MessageLabs

Demystifying the PCI Data Security Standard for Service Providers 2006-07-31 11:42:51 ComplyGuard Networks

The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) is a set of security practices set forth by American Express, Discover, Japan Central Bank, MasterCard, and VISA to protect cardholder data. It is an industry-established policy requiring compliance by all merchants and service providers that store, process, or transmit cardholder data. This white paper from ComplyGuard Networks explains what the specific requirements of the PCI DSS mean for service providers.

The PCI DSS's special requirements for merchants are detailed in the companion white paper, "The PCI Data Security Standard for Merchants Demystified."

Using Security Compliance Software to Improve Business Efficiency and Reduce Costs 2006-09-12 12:24:44 Symantec

This IDC white paper analyzes the cost of complying with increasing numbers of government regulations. It discusses specific cost reduction strategies and cites Symantec's security solutions as examples of packaged solutions that can help enterprises reduce their overall costs and still meet regulatory requirements. Finally, the authors recommend strategies for implementing packaged compliance solutions. (Sponsored by Symantec)

Reduce the Risk of Costly Data Breaches: Three Pillars of Data Protection 2006-06-01 Iron Mountain

There are numerous regulations that govern the protection of private, personal and confidential data regardless of whether the data resides on a secure mainframe computer, desktop PC or mobile device such as a laptop PC. Legislative requirements to disclose lost data incidents are expensive and can negatively affect a corporation's reputation.

Iron Mountain Digital advocates these Three Pillars of Data Protection to serve as a guide for customers establishing a PC security program:

Policy Management and Control

Threat Monitoring and Response

Data Backup and Restoration

This paper provides an overview of PC encryption, the elements beyond encryption that are necessary for a complete data protection solution, and how Iron Mountain Digital's Data Defense and Connected Backup/PC solutions address the Three of Pillars of Data Protection.

Fujitsu mPollux: PalmSign Security Option 2006-08-26 01:00:10 Fujitsu

Several different schemes exist for the authentication of the involved parties and communicated messages, or for the insurance of transaction confidentiality and non-repudiation. The problem currently is that as a rule these schemes build on special secure devices and complex infrastructure such as PKI. While the security achieved by such means is high, the threshold for applying such an infrastructure for smaller scale business cases can be high as well. mPollux Security Server provides a range of security solutions from conventional user id - password authentication, telephone call authentication to full-scale PKI based security. mPollux Palm-Sign is a Security Option that provides security for applications when high level security with biometric technology is desired or required.
