"Though the enemy be stronger in numbers, we may prevent him from fighting. Scheme so as to discover his plans and the likelihood of their success. Rouse him, and learn the principle of his activity or inactivity. Force him to reveal himself, so as to find out his vulnerable spots." Sun Tzu, The Art of War SSL VPNs are quickly gaining popularity as serious contenders in the remote-access marketplace. I read with great interest Mr. Stephenson’s article “Advancing to a mature state of digital forensics’ in the September issue of SC Magazine. Trojan Horse applications (Trojans for short) are not new, having been around for over ten years now, but amazingly no-one has found a way to manage the threat. Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are quickly gaining popularity as serious contenders in the remote-access marketplace. Secure project management is a concept that blends the needs of project management and security. A technology gap exists in businesses today between the "haves"--deep-pocket enterprises--and the "have nots"--businesses on a budget.

For some time now, the problem for security professionals has not been "do I need AV protection" but more specifically "which one is best for my corporate needs." But with so many other danger areas for security administrators to concentrate on, leading to the provision of intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems, firewalls and virtual private networks, to name but a few, it is crucial to make the right decision when they have a large array of other security solutions already running.
Providing all you need for network screening and stability can be a tall order, so whichever anti-virus solution is relied upon - software- or hardware-based, or a mix of both - it has to be dependable, be able to fully integrate with everything else running on the network, and provide 100 per cent system integrity.

Sometimes, there is not enough room in the server rack to add another appliance. When the need to offload SSL acceleration from the main processor becomes paramount, adding a card to do the job is the sensible choice. The nCipher nforce1600 contains everything in a tamper-resistant casing, which helps to provide a more secure environment. The card was simple to install and set up, the software installation from CD-Rom being largely automatic. It comes with its own smartcard reader, required to work the security aspects of the device.

The RS9800 is a 2U device available in two versions: the 9800-T with four copper gigabit Ethernet ports, which we tested, and the 9800-SX with four fiber optic gigabit Ethernet ports.

The unit is built into a standard 1U rack-mount chassis, with a serial port and two 10/100/ 1000Base-TX ports. An additional 1000Base-SX port is available as an optional extra. Installation was straightforward and fully covered in the documentation. Initial set-up used a command line interface via a serial port.

The SonicWALL SSL-RX accelerator can be used as a freestanding unit or mounted in a rack as a 1U device. It contains a redundant power supply for reliability.

Adhaero Doc is not a general-purpose encryption product, but it uses encryption technology to secure Microsoft Office files throughout their lifecycle. It also integrates with Microsoft Outlook to provide the same protection to emails. It is best described as a digital rights management product.

This suite of programs is designed to control access to the internet and keep the enemy at bay. It integrates with many third-party defense applications to offer a war room in a browser from which the state of the defenses can be examined, as well as dictating how the various units work together to shield the internal network.

The UniGuard-V34 modem and Port Authority 44 (PA44) offer secure out-of-band control of networking hardware and servers.

This solution has some unusual features. Although all the configuration and access control data is stored in the device, its management functions are divided between the device and a designated Windows workstation that runs the Access Control Manager application. This slightly unusual arrangement does enable routine management and monitoring functions to run from any networked client, while changes to the security system can only be carried out from a specific workstation.

As firewalls go, the CyberGuard SL3200 is a monster: a huge, noisy beast with performance that matches its rugged looks. The name denotes its capacity - 3.2 gigabits of total throughput, shared among a maximum of 26 Ethernet ports. Even more notably, it is able to multiplex several interfaces into a small number of very high-capacity pipes, all secured at wire speed.
Designed for high-demand environments, the box has all the HA features you'd expect - hot-swappable fans and power supplies, as well as RAID 5 storage, with an internal layout designed for maximum airflow and heat dissipation. Fail-over between two boxes is available if you have an extended license.

Qualys has provided an automated remote vulnerability testing service for some time. However, a remotely operated service like that is limited in what it can do when it is trying to access your computers through a properly configured firewall. That is not to say it doesn't do a good job of showing up external vulnerabilities, but it can't give a complete vulnerability picture, as it lacks the 'enemy within' perspective. Incidentally, internal risks are not limited to dishonest or malicious employees - it could apply to an innocent user accidentally running a trojan attached to an email, because he is running it inside the firewall perimeter.
What is needed to complete a security audit is a vulnerability assessment carried out from inside the organisation on the corporate intranet to see what vulnerabilities are exposed to internal users who may be a threat. And that's exactly what QualysGuard Enterprise does with its Intranet Scanner option.

SecureDoc is a disk encryption product that codes the entire hard disk, including operating system files and boot sector. Therefore it provides authentication of the user before the computer even boots up. It can also be used to encrypt all types of removable drives and media, including Flash cards. Although it can be installed in a password-only single-user environment, it provides an upgrade path to full enterprise-wide PKI and two- and three-factor authentication, integrating with third-party tokens.
