• The SIU Computer Operations Committee developed this initial set of guidelines in FY97. ...
• These guidelines provide a University-wide set of standards applicable to microcomputing administration and security. ...
• As resources allow, central information technology staff may provide consultative services to local computer support personnel regarding new technology acquisitions and problem resolution. Together, local and central staff may assist with institutional planning for technology and developing computer standards.
• Typically, but not always, central information technology professionals will assume responsibility for all computing infrastructure "behind the wall" which includes routers, hubs, cables, bridges, gateways, wiring, and all other equipment, computer hardware, or computer software which enables a department's computers to link into the wider campus area network and computing services. ...
• Central information technology staff are charged with identifying software and hardware needs that cross departmental boundaries. They should monitor the technology environment at large and recommend computer hardware with the longest potential life for the campus community. Campus information technology experts should work with the Purchasing Department in particular and the campus in general to regularly recommend standards for computer hardware configurations and to obtain quotation prices from vendors.
• Central information technology staff share the responsibility with local technical personnel to recommend and support application software that facilitates compatibility between all users of SIU's computing resources.
• This includes diagnosis of: software problems; basic microcomputer maintenance problems such as changing the battery, adding cards, checking wiring, and all other fairly routine hardware complaints; restoring back-up data when requested; and assisting the end user to employ the University's computing resources in an efficient and effective manner.
• Within each unit, all local computer resources shall be maintained by an employee officially designated as the information technology expert. This individual need not perform computer administration and security tasks exclusively. However, a portion of this employee's appointment must be devoted to departmental computer support. Alternatively, a unit may contract with an outside vendor to provide local technical support; in that case, a designated SIU employee will act as liaison with the computer support service provider.
• One or more departments may wish to pool resources to negotiate discounted training for their computer support professionals. ...

• These are rights for users of the software. An open-source license itself does not necessarily require that the software, or its source, initially has to be freely (in both senses of the word) available on the Internet. Most popular open-source software is, however. ...
• The term open source in common usage may also refer to any software with publicly available source code, regardless of its license, but this usage provokes strong disapproval from the open source community. Examples of such "disclosed source" software include some versions of Solaris and PGP. ...
• 1 "Open source" and "Free software".
• 6 Examples of Open Source Software.
• "Open source" and "Free software".
• In the strict definition, the term "open source" is distinct from "free software," and it should only be applied to software that meets the terms of the Open Source Definition (see also the Free Software Foundation's (FSF) Free software definition). The decision to adopt the term "open source", suggested by Christine Peterson of the Foresight Institute, was based partly on the confusion caused by the dual meaning of the word "free"; the FSF intended the word to mean "free speech, not free beer," but nevertheless, free software came to be associated with zero cost, a problem which was exacerbated by the fact that a great deal of it is, in fact, free of charge. It was hoped that the usage of the newer term "open source" would eliminate such ambiguity, and would also be easier to "market" to business users (who might mistakenly associate "free software" with anti-commercialism). ...
• The Free Software Definition is slightly more restrictive than the Open Source Definition; as a consequence of this, free software is open source, but open source software may or may not be "free. " In practice, nearly all open-source licenses also satisfy the FSF's free-software definition, and the difference is more a matter of philosophical emphasis. ... ) For instance, software distributed under both the GPL and BSD licenses are considered both free and open source (the original BSD License had terms legally incompatible with the GPL, but this practical difficulty is a separate issue from its free-ness). Confusion about the distinctions between free and open source software is the source of some misunderstanding, particularly in the mass media where the two terms are often applied interchangeably. ...
• The open source movement is a large movement of programmers and other computer users that advocates unrestricted access to the source code of software. It grew out of the Free software movement, and the line between the two is somewhat blurry; both are founded in the hacker culture. Mostly, the Free software movement is based upon political and philosophical ideals, while open source proponents tend to focus on more pragmatic arguments. ... Both groups assert that this more open style of licensing allows for a superior software development process, and therefore that pursuing it is in line with rational self-interest. Free software advocates, however, would argue that "freedom" is a paramount merit that one should prefer (or at least weigh heavily) even in cases where proprietary software has some superior technical features. ...

• Anti-virus software.
• (Redirected from Antivirus software) .
• An anti-virus software program is a computer program that can be used to scan files to identify and eliminate computer viruses and other malicious software (malware). ...
• Anti-virus software typically uses two different techniques to accomplish this: .
• Identifying suspicious behavior from any computer program which might indicate infection .
• Most commercial anti-virus software uses both of these approaches, with an emphasis on the virus dictionary approach. ...
• 4 Antivirus software companies.
• In the virus dictionary approach, when the anti-virus software examines a file, it refers to a dictionary of known viruses that have been identified by the author of the anti-virus software. If a piece of code in the file matches any virus identified in the dictionary, then the anti-virus software can then either delete the file, quarantine it so that the file is inaccessible to other programs and its virus is unable to spread, or attempt to repair the file by removing the virus itself from the file. ...
• As new viruses are identified "in the wild", civically minded and technically inclined users can send their infected files to the authors of anti-virus software, who then include information about the new viruses in their dictionaries. ...
• Dictionary-based anti-virus software typically examines files when the computer's operating system creates, opens, and closes them; and when the files are e-mailed. ... The software can also typically be scheduled to examine all files on the user's hard disk on a regular basis. ...
• Although the dictionary approach is considered effective, virus authors have tried to stay a step ahead of such software by writing "polymorphic viruses", which encrypt parts of themselves or otherwise modify themselves as a method of disguise, so as to not match the virus's signature in the dictionary. ...
• If the user clicks "Accept" on every such warning, then the anti-virus software is obviously useless to that user. ... Thus, most modern anti virus software uses this technique less and less. ...
• Some antivirus-software will try to emulate the beginning of the code of each new executable that is being executed before transferring control to the executable. ...

• New Email alerts! Beta Sign up now! 0 Computer security teams brace for attacks.
• update Computer security teams are bracing for holiday attacks by two programs that enlist multiple systems to launch coordinated assaults on Web servers.
• Experts fear that the holidays are a likely time, because computer administrators on vacation will be harder to locate and likely won't be paying as much attention to systems under their control.
• In addition, some suggest attackers are likely to strike in the midst of confusion that people expect with the arrival of the Year 2000 computer problem.
• The duo, which started appearing in recent months, "are a step above what has happened before," according to Dave Dittrich, a computer security technician at the University of Washington who wrote analyses of the programs.
• If the information from the attackers comes fast enough, the target computer freezes up.
• Moreover, because the origin of the program is obscured, it's hard to counteract, said Quinn Peyton of the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) at Carnegie Mellon University.
• Then, on a signal from a master computer, the computers simultaneously bombard the victim machine with packets of information so fast that it becomes unresponsive. At that point, the target computer won't respond to commands and can't be taken off the network. ...
• To monitor computer attacks and vulnerabilities, the FBI in 1998 set up an office called the National Infrastructure Protection Center (NIPC). ...
• "There's a lot of paranoia for the Y2K stuff," said David Crawford of the Energy Department's Computer Incident Advisory Capability.
• The attack software was installed primarily on computers using Sun Microsystems' Solaris and Linux--both variations of the Unix operating system. To break into those computers, the intruder took advantage of known vulnerabilities that allowed him or her to take almost complete control of a computer then erase his or her tracks, Dittrich said.

• Source code (commonly just source or code) refers to any series of statements written in some human readable computer programming language. In modern programming languages, the source code which constitutes a software program is usually in several computer files, but the same source code may be printed in a book or recorded on tape (usually without a filesystem). The term is typically used in the context of a particular piece of computer software. A computer program's source code is the collection of files that can be converted from human-readable form to an equivalent computer-executable form. The source code is either converted into object code by an assembler or compiler for a particular computer architecture, or executed from the human readable form with the aid of an interpreter. ...
• An other important purpose of source code is for the description of software. ...
• Source code is a vital component in the activity of porting software to alternative computer platforms. Without the source code for a particular piece of software, portability is generally so difficult as to be impractical and even impossible. Programmers frequently borrow source code from one piece of software to use in other projects, a concept which is known as Software reusability. ...
• The source code for a particular piece of software may be contained in a single file or many files. ... It is also possible for some components of a piece of software to be written and compiled separately, in an arbitrary programming language, and later integrated into the software using a technique called library linking. ...
• Moderately complex software customarily requires the compilation or assembly of several, sometimes dozens or even hundreds, of different source code files. ...
• At the time, encryption algorithms were classified as munitions by the United States government; exporting encryption to other countries was considered an issue of national security, and had to be approved by the State Department. ...

• The stated aim is to fix the problems of current computer insecurity, and to create new kinds of distributed applications, where each component can know and trust the operation of other parts of the system, even when they are running on remote computers. ...
• Opponents characterise it as an attempt to control the market for computer hardware and software, thus entrenching and extending Microsoft's existing desktop computer operating system and software monopoly. ... They further fear that the Palladium platform will eventually control all aspects of computer operation, including web browsing and e-mail. ...
• Simultaneously, the NGSCB Security Support Component, SSC, takes and records a hash of the Nexus. ...
• The SSC takes a hash of the software as it loads. ...
• This includes sealing (encrypting) data with the aid of the SSC, which can optionally lock the data to the hash of the NCA, making it impossible for other software to decrypt the data. ...
• This allows the remote system to be convinced of the identity of the software running locally. ...
• The keyboard and display device can also be opened as secure channels by the NCA, allowing I/O to occur without other software being able to snoop on the data being displayed or typed. ...
• The combination of these features allows distributed applications to exchange and store data via secure channels such that no entity other than these software programs can examine or change the data. This inherently supports DRM as well as a wide range of other security based applications. ...
• The current free competition within the software industry could be a thing of the past, say critics, as programs could not load each other's files due to the encryption the saving program can put on files created. One software company would gain dominance over a particular industry and it would be impossible to dislodge them. Note, however, that this is already the case as many software companies use proprietary file formats that are difficult or impossible to read in other applications. ...
• Simon Conant, a 'security expert' (quoted verbatim from the source article, the UK Metro) working for Microsoft said "We need to go back to the drawing board with a brand new architecture for the PC". ...
• Therefore, users are still going to need antivirus monitoring and detection software in Windows. ...
• The antivirus software can be grounded in such a way that it can bootstrap itself into a protected execution state, something it cannot do today. ...

• Security Violation Handling .
• Department heads or designees should detect and correct any non-compliance with this and other University computer policies. If they detect serious security violations they should report their findings to UNM Police. ...
• - CIRT Computer Use Access Agreement .

• Policy on Computer Security.
• The focus of information security is on ensuring protection of information and continuation of program operations. ... Protecting that information and the surrounding investment is the impetus for establishing an information security program. ...
• An effective and efficient security management program requires active support and ongoing participation from multiple disciplines and all levels of administration. Responsibilities include identifying vulnerabilities that may affect information assets and implementing cost-effective security practices to minimize or eliminate the effects of the vulnerabilities. ...
• The Computer Security Policy is administered by the Associate Vice President for Technological Services (Vice President for Administrative Services) and the Cyber-Security group. ...
• The user must use the data only for purposes specified by the owner, comply with security measures specified by the owner or custodian, and not disclose information in the data nor the access controls over the data unless specifically authorized in writing by the owner. ...
• Security Policy.
• The Computer Security Policy applies to all WIU faculty, staff, students, and others (e. ...
• Persons using or attaching to WIU computer resources will acknowledge compliance with the Computer Security Policy when userids and passwords are assigned, and in some cases, when an application is accessed. ...
• Computer resources are valuable assets and unauthorized use, alteration, destruction, or disclosure of these assets is a computer-related crime, punishable under Illinois statutes and federal laws, as well as through administrative and/or civil sanctions. ...
• Computer software purchased using university or state funds is WIU property and shall be protected as such. ...
• Unauthorized/unlicensed use of software (software piracy) will not be tolerated and such software will be removed by the appropriate administrators. ...
• Use of WIU systems to attack other computer systems, internal or external to WIU, is a violation of this policy subject to administrative, civil, and/or criminal sanctions. ...
• Attempting to circumvent security or administrative access controls for computer resources is a violation of this policy, as is assisting someone else or requesting someone else to circumvent security or administrative access controls. Persons violating the Computer Security Policy will be subject to appropriate administrative, civil, and/or criminal sanctions. ...

• Typically this is for computer systems, which is the model we will discuss here. ...
• The 'user' whose access is being controlled (all users in principle, though some users have special privileged access deliberately or accidentally on some systems) may be a real human at a keyboard, or a process / program, on the local or some other computer system. ... If the password given matches that the system has stored for that user, the user is permitted access by the login facility (usually a part of the operating system) to the computer system. The access granted may be limited to certain directories and files, to only certain executables, only for certain times, only for a limited amount of resources (eg, computer CPU time, or disk storage space,. ...
• Examples include logons to computer systems such as e-mail servers, or Illya Kuryakin proving his identity to the U. ... security door with a code word, or a personal_identification_number (PIN) at a bank cash machine. ...
• Passwords are sometimes shared by the members of a group who are thus all intended to have the same access to the computer system, but this is less sensible than individual passwords since the more people (or programs) which know a password the higher the chance that password will become known to others and since membership in such a group may not coincide with the existence of the group. ...
• The security of a password protected system against illegitimate access depends on several factors but all are tied to keeping the password completely secret. ...
• If it is usable only once, many potential security exploits would be rendered ineffective. ...
• At least one University in the US has inadventently made public some of their records which included student name and Social Security number. ...
• If a new password is passed to 'the system' in clear, security can be lost (eg, via wire tapping) before the new password can even be installed in the password database. ...
• In tests on live systems, dictionary attacks are so routinely successful that software implementing is available for many systems. ...
• Studies of live computer systems have consistently shown (for several decades, for all systems examined, across all examined cultures,. ...
• Conversely if the user selects a less obvious password then, to assist in remembering it, they are likely to write it down somewhere (a Post It note stuck to their monitor being a strangely popular choice), thus compromising the security of the system. ...
• We're doing a security test. ...
• Whether or not the checking process in the computer system (the 'authenticator') actually knows the plaintext of the password. ...

• Instead of using plain-text socket communication, HTTPS encrypts the session data using either a version of the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) protocol or the TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol, thus ensuring reasonable protection from eaves-droppers, and man in the middle attacks. ...
• The level of protection depends on the correctness of the implementation by the web browser and the server software and the actual cryptographic algorithms supported. ...

• Of all his work, the most well-known is the second of his six principles: the principle that the security of a cryptosystem must depend only on the key and not on the secrecy of any other part of the system. ...
• For computer security systems, a determined attacker might be able to run your software under control of a debugger or probe your hardware in various ways until he finds out in detail how it works. Kerchoffs' law is the argument that cryptography should be secure even against an opponent who has done such things, or alternatively, that security by obscurity is insufficient in cryptography. ...

• Had the bulk of commercially important software fallen within these bounds, hardware compatibility might not have mattered. However, from the very beginning, many significant pieces of popular commercial software wrote directly to the hardware, for a variety of reasons: .
• Communications software directly accessed the UART chip, because the MS-DOS API and the BIOS did not provide full support for the chip's capabilities. ...
• By 1983, buyers began to regard PCs as commodity items, and became skeptical as to whether the security blanket of the IBM name warranted the price differential. ... Nobody cared that they ran MS-DOS; the issue was that they did not run off-the-shelf software written for IBM compatibles. ...
