27. Article: Wireless access point
- www.wikipedia.org
- A wireless access point (WAP or AP) is a device that "connects" wireless communication devices together to create a wireless network. A wireless access point acts as the network's arbitrator, negotiating when each nearby client device can transmit. The WAP is also usually connected to a wired network, and can relay data between devices on each side. Many access points can be connected together to create a larger network that allows "roaming" where a person using the network can move from the communication range of one WAP to another and experience no data loss. ... 11 or "Wireless Ethernet" access point connecting an Ethernet network to so-called "Wi-Fi" devices, but other devices (such as those connecting mobile phones to wired phone networks) can also be considered WAPs. In Wi-Fi parlance, a network with at least one active wireless access point doing its duty is said to be a managed network or an infrastructure network. In contrast, a network where the client devices manage themselves is called an ad-hoc network. ...
- Wireless networks also give users greater mobility freeing individuals from the need to be stuck at a computer tied to the wall. ...
- Some experiments have been carried out to allow computer networking over distances of several miles or more (though such placement is not unusual for cellular systems). ...
- A typical corporate use of WAPs is to attach one to the wired network and then provide wireless client adapters for users who need them. Within the range of the access point, the wireless end-user has a full network connection with the benefit of mobility. In this instance, the access point is a gateway for clients to access the network. Another use is to bridge two wired networks where cable is not appropriate; for example, a manufacturer can connect a remote warehouse (within line of sight) by radio, with a wired network in each facility. ...
- Another topography is called a lily pad network: a series of access points spread over a large area, each connected to a different network, providing hot spots where wireless clients can connect to the Internet without regard for the particular networks to which it's attached at the moment. ...
- Another issue with wireless access in genral is the need for security. Many early access points did not have very good abilities to discern if a particular user was authorized to access the network or not. ... It has been possible in the past for individuals to plug computers into random available Ethernet jacks and get access to the network. This was usually not much of a problem, though, since many businesses had reasonably good physical security. However, the fact that radio signals bleed outside buildings and across property lines means that the physical security aspect is not as much of a deterrent. ...

32. Computer and network security
- www.gordon.army.mil
- Analyzing security: understanding and analyzing risk in a networked environment.
- Once upon a time (that’s how good fairy tales begin), security pundits believed perfect security could be achieved in a networked environment, and cryptography was the panacea. ...
- Information-security expert Bruce Schneier – founder and chief technical officer of Counterpane Internet Security Inc. , and author of Applied Cryptography (John Wiley and Sons, 1996) – prefaces his latest book, Secrets and Lies: Digital Security in a Networked World (John Wiley and Sons, 2000), with an apology of sorts. He unequivocally states that the mathematics-based security utopia described in Applied Cryptography is false. It’s not that cryptography is less effective today; it’s the realization that cryptography is but one component of network security.
- Security also involves people and computers. ... The result? Security is imperfect, and risks must be managed.
- Cryptography has been considered the ultimate information security for decades. ... These systems did not exchange information outside of their environment, and encryption of these point-to-point connections provided perfect security.
- Cryptography continues to provide transmission security for the links, ensuring radio transmissions cannot be intercepted.
- However, the fact is every computer is virtually connected to every other computer at all times. External connections from the tactical command-and-control network through the Defense Information Systems Network’s standard tactical-entry point or tactical reachback into an Army installation’s secure local-area network extends this virtual connection to every computer on the secure IP routed network. ...
- " However, this definition falls short in identifying risks to information security because it fails to include adverse effects’ degree of probability and that probability’s relationship to the loss’s severity should the hazard occur.
- For instance, a technical-network specialist may consider the abundant risks posed by the nefarious hacker but fail to consider physical security, training or environmental issues.
- Evaluate courses of action to determine the optimal mix costs, benefits and residual risks to meet mission and security requirements. ... Decisions that will impact operations cannot be solely left up to the system administrator or security specialist.
33. Article: Network address translation
- en2.wikipedia.org
- Network address translation.
- (Redirected from Network Address Translation) .
- Network address translation (NAT, also known as Network masquerading or IP-masquerading) is a technique used in computer networking, which relies on rewriting IP addresses of network packets passing through a router or firewall. ...
- In addition to the necessity, some arguments proposed in favor of NAT are simplicity and security. ... IPv6 assignment policies ensure that even end users get a well-sized pool of IP addresses for devices such as Computers, Set-top_boxes, internet phones and other network devices. ...
- There are two kinds of network address translation. What is often called simply "NAT" is also sometimes named "NAPT", and refers to network address translation involving the mapping of port numbers, allowing multiple machines to share a single IP address. ... The feature is often found in ADSL routers, sometimes labelled "DMZ host", to allow a computer to accept all external connections even when the only available external IP address is used by the router itself. ...
- NAT with port-translation can be further distinguished to two kinds: source address translation (source NAT), where the IP address of the computer which initiated the connection is rewritten, and its counterpart: destination address translation (destination NAT). ...
- To the computers on the local network, the "NAT box" looks like just another router, but in reality, it is doing all sorts of magic. ...
- When the computer performing the NAT routes the systems behind it onto the Internet, it transparently changes the source IP address of the internal system to its external (Internet) address and remembers basic data about the connection. ... When the reply is sent back, the router looks at the connection tracking data it stored before and determines where to send it back on the internal network. ...
- Another benefit of NAT is the ability to conceal the internal configuration of your network from external observers such as hackers or your ISP. ...
- Downsides of NAT include difficulty in using services that require the initiation of TCP connections from the outside network, or stateless protocols such as those utilising UDP; unless the NAT router makes specific effort to support such protocols, incoming connections cannot reach their destination. ...
- Other computers on the local network (eth0) need to set the IP address of the masquerading box as their gateway. ...

- Telnet is a network protocol used on the Internet. ...
- Security .
- There are three main problems with Telnet, making it a bad choice for modern systems from the point of view of security: .
- In environments where security is important, such as on the public Internet, telnet should not be used. ... This means that anybody who has access to any router, switch, or gateway located on the network between the two hosts where telnet is being used can intercept the telnet packets passing by and easily obtain login and password information (and whatever else is typed) with any of several common utilities like tcpdump and Ethereal. ...
- SSH provides all functionality present in telnet, with the addition of strong encryption to prevent sensitive data such as passwords from being intercepted, and public key authentication, to ensure that the remote computer is actually who it claims to be. ...
- Experts in Computer Security, such as SANS, and the members of the comp. ... security newsgroup recommend that the use of Telnet for remote logins should be discontinued under all normal circumstances. ...
- When telnet was being developed in the early 1980s (according to some sources in 1969), most users of networked computers were in the computer departments of academic institutions, or at large private and government research facilities. In this environment, security was not nearly as much of a concern as it became after the bandwidth explosion of the 1990s. ...
- It is sometimes used in debugging network services such as an SMTP or HTTP server, by serving as a simple way to send commands to the server and examine the responses. ...

- Should I be worried about security vulnerabilities?.
- If your business maintains information on computer systems, you should be concerned about computer security vulnerabilities at some level. Your concerns will be much different if you have thousands of computer systems vs even one or two computers.
- Where would I find security vulnerabilities?.
- Many businesses have not discussed security related issues or implemented security related policies. When you consider your security vulnerabilities, you may want to consider the following "layers" of vulnerabilities.
- Internet Security.
- If you have not implemented reasonable security at this or other "network perimeters" (such as connections to vendors or customers), you may be very vulnerable to an attack.
- Security measures can include firewalls, network address translation (NAT), network antivirus, SPAM filtering and more.
- Network Security.
