The commercial world has rushed headlong into doing business on the Web  often without integrating sound security technologies and policies into their products and methods. The security risks--and the need to protect both business and personal data--have never been greater. Weve updated Building Internet Firewalls to address these newer risks. What kinds of security threats does the Internet pose? Some  like password attacks and the exploiting of known security holes  have been around since the early days of networking. And others  like the distributed denial of service attacks that crippled Yahoo  E-Bay  and other major e-commerce sites in early 2000  are in current headlines. Firewalls  critical components of todays computer networks  effectively protect a system from most Internet security threats. They keep damage on one part of the network--such as eavesdropping  a worm program  or file damage--from spreading to the rest of the network. Without firewalls  network security problems can rage out of control  dragging more and more systems down. Like the bestselling and highly respected first edition  Building Internet Firewalls  2nd Edition  is a practical and detailed step-by-step guide to designing and installing firewalls and configuring Internet services to work with a firewall. Much expanded to include Linux and Windows coverage  the second edition describes: Firewall technologies: packet filtering  proxying  network address translation  virtual private networks Architectures such as screening routers  dual-homed hosts  screened hosts  screened subnets  perimeter networks  internal firewalls Issues involved in a variety of new Internet services and protocols through a firewall Email and News Web services and scripting languages (e.g.  HTTP  Java  JavaScript  ActiveX  RealAudio  RealVideo) File transfer and sharing services such as NFS  Samba Remote access services such as Telnet  the BSD \"r\" commands  SSH  BackOrifice 2000 Real-time conferencing services such as ICQ and talk Naming and directory services (e.g.  DNS  NetBT  the Windows Browser) Authentication and auditing services (e.g.  PAM  Kerberos  RADIUS); Administrative services (e.g.  syslog  SNMP  SMS  RIP and other routing protocols  and ping and other network diagnostics) Intermediary protocols (e.g.  RPC  SMB  CORBA  IIOP) Database protocols (e.g.  ODBC  JDBC  and protocols for Oracle  Sybase  and Microsoft SQL Server) The books complete list of resources includes the location of many publicly available firewall construction tools.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45647364194357,"sku":"ByrdShop_1565928717","price":27.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781565928718.jpg?v=1781691920","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/building-internet-firewalls-internet-and-web-security-9781565928718","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
