Linux system security tool details

6. script here, we do not want to mention what tools, scripting is a system administrator of one of the major skills.

In your management network, shell scripts, perl scripts, etc are all part of your daily work. It is obvious that the script can be used to automate the task, however, we also can put its application in the security monitoring, every system administrator has his own needs and he always tried to fit his way to manage these. This is usually not so easy, there is one thing that can give you help: subscribe to sysadmin magazine! this magazine is for system administrators to write to the system administrator to give you a number of programs and scripts, each issue even equipped with a computer CD-ROM, the course contains all programs and scripts. This is not an advertisement, but tell you an find many solutions to enhance safety of diagrams. If you are a system administrator, go to http://www.samag.com see it, you should try it, of course, this is just a suggestion. 7. what this article is very much about security issues, however, as we said, this article is an article "how to make your network or host security" article. On the subject, a book is not enough, security is not just rely on tools, and many acts, for example, some of the usual habits that we make mistakes. When people would understand that M $ office file is actually a security bombs, they not only fit great and full of macro viruses. Wintel users, please don't put word, execl file as email attachment delivered, in addition, if you receive them, please do not open it, this is just a suggestion, however, you have been warned, and you receive or download the executable file as dangerous as (in my opinion, more dangerous). By the way, plain text and HTML files in size than the office file much smaller, but they are not dangerous. Of course, I know this work: wintelword when you download a separate drive, it usually is executable, let us admit that we can believe this great company ... But do you know your downloaded files possible? Yes, think a little bit paranoid, but is not a crazy? why do you think that many files have a correction value to verify correctness? The following may "hurt" to many people, but this is the fact that Java is dangerous! javascript applet is not safe, is not secure, however, interesting that many websites use JAVA, and Java is when you visit the Web site, the browser often die of the source of the problem. This is the purpose of the site? Not to mention the ActiveX from M $!, replace it with Rebol. (Http://www.rebol.com) because of this fact: the new internet expert, stop using wintelword and IE5 to station. I note that this website spill, after all, many people use many different operating systems and many different browsers like internet, joining, equal to deny people access to your Web site. The goal is to share the internet, using a dedicated stuff is meaningless in my opinion, when the construction of rough a website, the first thing to do is get access to the operating system, which the browser ..., but this is only my personal point of view. Think about it, if you use unix machines and netscape access that Web site, you are not Home! sorry, a little off. Another important point is not likely to be 100% secure. We leave it still early. What you can do is raise it, in fact, you probably can we mention tools are used, but the back door driving big! don't be silly, hackers will not go to attempt to undo the first 128-bit key, but they can in one place to find a small hole. So be careful suid or sgid programs, and access permissions, run the service, cancel useless account number, etc. UNIX version has much in common, they have many different safety to off. Some like a sieve-like defects, you must pay attention to this point. For example, a join of M $ internetcable is great, but you will appear in the hacker's machine, and my network places, M $ will you sell to the hacker, I'm not kidding ... Network and computer security has a long way to go, if you are interested in this area, you can learn new things. Fortunately, here are some resources you can use.
