whitepaper Small Business Webcast: Securing Your Small Business Computer With Windows Firewall (Level 100)2006-06-09 01:00:26 Microsoft
  Don't assume small businesses get overlooked by the cyber bad guys! Security matters for any size business, especially when it comes to protecting the business from computer viruses, crashes, hackers and other threats to productivity. Windows Firewall (formerly known as the Internet Connection Firewall), available with Windows XP Service Pack 2, is a protective boundary that monitors and restricts information that travels between the computer and a network or the Internet. This webcast explains how Windows Firewall works, what it does and does not do, and how to configure the firewall settings.   
whitepaper Webcast: Does Your Anti-virus REALLY Protect You Against Spyware?2006-09-18 08:57:03 Sunbelt Software
  While most enterprise anti-virus software includes at least some protection against spyware, it's important to remember that anti-spyware functionality is just an afterthought in the majority of anti-virus solutions available today.

So it stands to reason that anti-virus tools that were designed first and foremost to scan for viruses and worms won't be as effective at detecting adware and spyware. With their focus primarily on files and processes, anti-virus solutions may simply not detect tell-tale signs of spyware such as groups of offending registry keys.

Check out this TechRepublic Webcast, now available on demand, to hear Sunbelt Software's President, Alex Eckelberry, and Director of Malware Research, Eric Howes, discuss spyware detection and why the lack of a specific and aggressive anti-spyware strategy can leave your company vulnerable to a host of contemporary security threats.

Moderated by James Hilliard of TechRepublic, the discussion covers these important topics and more:

  • The unique characteristics of spyware
  • Why anti-virus solutions may not always effectively detect and remove spyware
  • The key differences between anti-virus products and dedicated anti-spyware solutions

Independent tests have proven that stand-alone anti-spyware products are better than anti-virus solutions at detecting and removing spyware from networked computers. So check out this on-demand Webcast to learn more about the threats associated with spyware and the benefits of including a dedicated anti-spyware solution in your overall security posture.

whitepaper TechNet Webcast: Inside Application Layer Filtering (Level 300)2005-11-29 Microsoft
  How safe is the firewall? Buffer overruns, mail viruses, and other attacks penetrate many corporate firewalls and use protocols such as HTTP, SMTP and FTP to defeat port-based rules and pass attacks inside data streams. This webcast shows how Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004 features such as URL filtration, pre-authentication, syntax checking, and intelligent content inspection help deliver a high-degree of protection through application awareness. The attendee will understand the SMTP filter model and the HTTP filtering engine, and see how these integrate with Internet Information Services 6.0, Microsoft Exchange Server 2003, and the Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service to help form a well-defined defensive strategy.
