Last year there were several high profile cases including General Electric‚ Starbucks‚ Ford and the Veterans Administration that involved the loss of personal information from hardware devices‚ in particularly the laptop. The very nature of the laptop (as well as other highly portable hardware devices) increases the likelihood of them being stolen or lost. Hardware that is stolen or lost (including optical discs‚ hard drives and tapes) are always disconcerting however‚ with tremendous amounts of

Password cracking has matured in the past few years. New hardware and techniques has made it possible to attempt 8.2 billion password combinations per second. This is being done by leveraging the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) of the computer‚ complex algorithms and a new twist on an old technique called rainbow tables. In a rainbow table the password is passed through a complex mathematical formula that expresses all possible password combinations without requiring each combination to be stored

Summary The wireless technologies have spread almost everywhere over the last few years. Their easiness of deployment and increase in speed make them very attractive for the everyday networking. On the other side the architecture makes wireless networks appealing for security attacks. The broadband wireless access technology WiMAX has been developed considering the security issues coming up with the deployment of Wi-‐ Fi (WLAN) networks. The security tools implemented in WiMAX aim to overcome issues

Papa Smurf IT255 Friday‚ 6pm Mrs. Smurfett 7/12/13 Multi-Layered Security Plan When developing a multi-layered security plan‚ you must look at each of the seven domains of the IT infrastructure and increase security on each of those domains. The seven domains are user domain‚ workstation domain‚ LAN domain‚ LAN to WAN domain‚ WAN domain‚ and remote access domain. Increasing the security on each of those seven domains will increase the overall security of the system and create a multi-layered

Explain the difference between secret and public keys. Encryption can be a useful deterrent in keeping sensitive information out of the hands of those not authorized and for maintaining the security of a network. Some encryption schemes utilize a secret key and a public key. Each person on the protected network has both a public and a secret key. Everyone who wants to be able to send encrypted information to another person on the network uses the public key. The recipient then uses a secret key

Assessment Worksheet 111 LAB #7 – ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET Relate Windows Encryption and Hashing to Confidentiality and Integrity Overview This lab demonstrated how hashing tools can be used to ensure message and file transfer integrity and how encryption can be used to maximize confidentiality. Common hashing and encryption tools‚ including MD5‚ SHA1‚ and GnuPG‚ were used. You used GnuPG to generate both a public and private key and a secret key for encryption only. Lab Assessment Questions

Unit 5 Assignment 1: Testing and Monitoring Security Controls Log files would be the first place one would look to check for suspicious activity in the event of a crime. They can help you understand where something went wrong. Creating a timeline‚ of before and after the performance problem or incident. The way traffic moves through a network‚ especially when the computers are only used for certain things‚ creates baseline behavior. When something is out of place‚ such anomalies seem suspicious;
