Here’s a question: how many non-work related emails do you send and receive every day from your office email address? On May 29, 2003, the Computer Security Institute (CSI) and the FBI published the results of their most recent Computer Crime and Security Survey, now in its eighth year. "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.

Sun Tzu, The Art of War Hackers manage to successfully break into systems much more often than you might realise. 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. Business continuity is no longer just an issue for IT the department as regulators both in the US and Europe are getting tougher on operational risk.

Security experts have warned internet users to take care when surfing the web, following sightings of malware planted on websites that exploits a recently discovered Internet Explorer security vulnerability that has not yet been patched by Microsoft. Security experts today warned of a trio of “highly critical” vulnerabilities that has been discovered in Skype’s VoIP client software, which can be exploited by malicious hackers to cause DoS attacks, or to take remote control of compromised systems. Security experts have reported that this October saw biggest ever recorded increase in new viruses. According to Sophos, last month's total of 1,685 newly discovered viruses marked the greatest month-on-month jump since the firm first began regular malware monitoring in the late 1980s.

The trouble with a better mousetrap is that it soon becomes yesterday's model: when you build security around a growing enterprise it is well to avoid obsolescence by adapting an EdgeForce appliance with its modular specification and performance.

The EdgeForce firewall with Performance Module 1 enabled incorporates a flexible demilitarised zone (DMZ) via a third port. This gives the ability to host public servers (email, FTP and web) from behind the firewall, and with this feature, non-authenticated access to servers behind the firewall can be granted, yet the private network itself is still completely shielded from the internet.
