whitepaper The Essential Elements of Comprehensive Endpoint Security26/03/08
  Establishing a comprehensive endpoint security solution is complicated, and issues like accounting for unmanaged nodes only increase the scope of the challenge. What's more, selecting and stitching together an appropriate set of counter-measures means navigating a complex landscape of point products. Accordingly, the intent of this white paper is to clarify the the endpoint security problem and identify the functional requirements of a comprehensive endpoint security solution.  sponsored by
whitepaper Anti-Spyware Software: Securing the Enterprise Network2006-04-13 04:09:16
  Spyware is a categorical name for any program that tracks user's online activities and secretly transmits information to a third party. The effects of spyware range from annoying interruptions, like pop-up ads, to security breaches and loss of intellectual property. The pervasiveness of spyware in corporations today illustrates the extent to which businesses are making themselves and their data vulnerable to unknown outside parties, such as competitors, hackers, or advertisers. In the last few years, multiple anti-spyware products have been introduced to the marketplace; however, these tools have been designed for desktop users and have not been scalable to corporations.   
whitepaper Check Point Multi-Layer Security: Attack Prevention Safeguards and Attacks Blocked2005-08-04 03:00:01 Check Point Software Technologies
  Check Point gateways, including VPN-1, FireWall-1, InterSpect, and Connectra, with SmartDefense, Application Intelligence and Web Intelligence protection enabled block many attacks and provide numerous attack prevention safeguards. This paper lists some of these defenses and organizes them by protocol and OSI model layer. Check Point continually expands the breadth of defenses provided in this paper.   
whitepaper Intrusion Prevention: A Proactive Approach to Network Security2006-01-17 08:26:35 VeriSign
  With the growing implementation of Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) technology, which is designed to proactively detect and block malicious traffic before it can reach the network, it is increasingly important for enterprises to make sure they correctly design, deploy, and maintain this solution or risk blocking mission-critical traffic. This white paper describes considerations for implementing a successful IPS solution, which will actually remove these concerns that can potentially eat up valuable resources and, more importantly, your profits.   
whitepaper Total Access Protection: A Better Approach to Securing Networks2005-08-04 03:00:01 Check Point Software Technologies
  Securing networks and their PC endpoints has grown increasingly challenging. The proliferation of endpoint vulnerabilities, exploits, and access methods has overwhelmed traditional defenses. Endpoint-borne attacks now cause heavy damage to companies every year. To make matters worse, spyware has become a major threat to network security and availability. This security breakdown has occurred despite the universal installation of antivirus software on enterprise PCs. The solution to these problems is Check Point Integrity endpoint security, which preemptively blocks the exploits that evade reactive products such as antivirus.   
whitepaper Denial of Service and Distributed Denial of Service Protection2005-08-04 03:00:01
  To obtain full protection for DoS attacks, organizations typically need to purchase multiple proxy servers, network security devices, intrusion preventions systems, as well as software packages, updates, and expanded licenses as an organization grows. TippingPoint provides the answer in a single system. The TippingPoint IPS is an easy, affordable, and scalable solution, equipped with a broad range of protection mechanisms including, application anomaly filters, protocol anomaly filters, exploit signature filters, statistical traffic anomaly filters, threshold rate shaping filters, and advanced DoS/DDoS filters for detecting and blocking attacks.   
whitepaper V-Secure Aims to Stop Intrusion Attacks2006-04-27 05:56:38
  No small business owner enjoys the countless intrusions in any given workday, annoying interruptions that keep you from being productive and efficient. But those daily disturbances are nothing when compared to the digital intrusions waiting to assault the network and - literally - bring the business to a crashing halt. Intrusions are computer attacks that typically come from outside the organization usually with the intention of crashing the network, hijacking the computing power to attack other servers or to mine personal information such as credit card numbers from the network. V-Secure, a Saddle Brook, N.J.-based company aims to keep intrusions from breaching small business networks with its combination hardware and software Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS).

whitepaper Wireless LAN Security: What Hackers Know That You Don’t2005-03-17 03:00:02 AirDefense
  This document outlines how hackers are exploiting vulnerabilities in 802.11 wireless LANs and describes the widely available hacking tools. As a collection of already published risks to wireless LANs, this white paper is written to inform IT security managers of what they are up against. In order to effectively secure their wireless LANs, enterprises must first know the potential dangers. Information security managers and executives will gain an understanding of sophisticated attacks and the latest threats to wireless LANs. This paper advocates a layered approach to wireless LAN security that goes beyond new encryption and authentication standards to include 24x7 monitoring to identify rogue wireless LANs, detect intruders and attacks, enforce network security policies and monitor the health of the wireless LAN.   
whitepaper Open Source: Is It Just One Big Hack?2006-04-27 08:48:04 Indian Institute of Technology Allahabad
  A new phenomenon of Open Source Movement and Free Software has brought about a new revolution in the developer community. The latest buzz word in this field seems to be Open Source and almost everybody seems to be propagating the idea. This paper first gives an introduction as to what exactly constitutes the Open Source and Free Software Movement, and the various development and Economic Models of the Open Source Movement. The paper states that whole GNU project is really one big hack, one big act of subversive playful cleverness to change the society for "better".   
whitepaper Hacking Offences2005-02-17 03:53:37 Australian Institute of Criminology
  This paper describes how computer hacking crimes are defined in Australia. The term 'hacker' has multiple meanings and variously describes a person who explores programmable systems, who is obsessive about programming, who is able to program quickly, or is an expert in a particular program. More generally, it refers to an expert enthusiast, one who enjoys creatively overcoming limitations, or a malicious meddler seeking confidential information.
