“This week, a number of network security articles were released.
A few of the better ones include “Linux Network Security:
Introduction,” “A Comparison of iptables Automation Tools,” and
“Firewalls, VPNs, and Remote Offices.” Also, take a moment to read
our latest ‘Linux Advisory Watch.’ We have switched to a new method
of formatting the information which should better suite your
needs.”
“FEATURE STORY: Know Your Enemy: Honeynets – Over the past
several years the Honeynet Project has been dedicated to learning
and the tools, tactics, and motives of the blackhat community and
sharing the lessons learned. The primary tool used to gather this
information is the Honeynet. The purpose of this paper is to
discuss what a Honeynet is, its value to the security community,
how it works, and the risks/issues involved.”
