MagniFire Updates Web Gateway
MagniFire WebSystems Inc. has released an updated version of its TrafficShield Web application gateway appliance that includes new security features and easier setup. Version 2.5 includes setup wizards and predefined security levels, according to the New York-based vendor. TrafficShield also supports filtering of credit card and Social Security numbers, offloading of SSL acceleration from a Web server onto external hardware and key management, and has added IP and port-address filtering and HTTP protocol validation functions.
Security Bookshelf
Security Warrior, by Cyrus Peikari and Anton Chuvakin; O'Reilly & Associates, 2004.
This oddly titled little book defies the normal approaches of the IT security genre. Instead, it tries to be an introduction for experts, a tourist guide for us locals who already know a thing or two about security. And it does a surprisingly good job. The authors cover many hot topics, such as software reverse-engineering and Bayesian analysis in intrusion-detection systems.
Very little time is spent on the basics. Rather you're thrown in at the deep end on each new topic. It's the perfect book to dip into while waiting for a phone conference to begin or listening to hold music. The bite-size chunks of information provide enough to get you interested in each topic and include many links on which to follow up. I love the factoids about things like the hacker root kit that includes e-mail support to users of this attack tool. This book will help if you want to know enough about IT security to claim to be a know-it-all.
