With the growing popularity of Linux, more and more administrators have started moving to the system to create networks or servers for any task. This also makes Linux the first choice for any attacker now.

Due to the lack of information about security-related attacks, administrators now face issues in dealing with these attackers as quickly as possible. Learning about the different types of Linux security will help create a more secure Linux system.

Whether you are new to Linux administration or experienced, this book will provide you with the skills to make systems more secure. With lots of step-by-step recipes, the book starts by introducing you to various threats to Linux systems. You then get to walk through customizing the Linux kernel and securing local files.

Next you will move on to manage user authentication locally and remotely and also mitigate network attacks. Finally, you will learn to patch bash vulnerability and monitor system logs for security. With several screenshots in each example, the book will supply a great learning experience and help you create more secure Linux systems.

This book makes it clear just how difficult it is to protect information systems from corruption, eavesdropping, unauthorized use, and general malice.

Bringing together the knowledge, skills, techniques, and tools required of IT security professionals, it facilitates the up-to-date understanding required to stay one step ahead of evolving threats, standards, and regulations. It then provides the information necessary to protect against these forms of attack, and offers the tools.

Explaining security vulnerabilities, possible exploitation scenarios, and prevention in a systematic manner, this guide to BIOS exploitation describes the reverse-engineering techniques used to gather information from BIOS and expansion ROMs. This book covers both theory and hands-on practice of computer forensics , introducing a powerful approach that can often recover evidence considered lost forever.

This book is a practical, hands-on introduction to open source security tools. It reviewed the overwhelming assortment of these free and low-cost solutions to provide you with the "best of breed" for all major areas of information security. If you want an effective means of securing your Linux system and who doesn't? The purpose of this book is to present some of the critical security challenges in today's computing world and to discuss mechanisms for defending against those attacks by using classical and modern approaches of cryptography mechanisms.

Book Details

This book discusses some of the critical security challenges faced by today's computing world and provides insights to possible mechanisms to defend against these attacks. It is also a quality guide for young researchers since it presents leading innovative contributions on security enhanced applications on various Information Systems. This book is aimed at Security and IT practitioners especially architects in end-user organisations who are responsible for implementing an enterprise-wide Identity and Access Management IAM system.

This book provides information about how to use free Open Source tools to build and manage an Intrusion Detection System. In this book, one of the data security methods known as visual cryptography VC is presented. Many types of visual cryptography are examined.

From the very first type of traditional visual cryptography right up to the latest developments. This book examines multiple aspects of public-key cryptography. It covers the theory of provably secure public-key cryptography and the implementation of exponentiation and multi-exponentiation. An introduction to provable security is provided. In this book, the author proposes cryptographic building blocks for the design of digital certificates that preserve privacy without sacrificing security. This info-packed book covers virtually all firewall techniques, technologies, and brands - and even includes a blueprint for designing your own.

Whether you're a seasoned veteran of Information Security or a newcomer, there are valuable lessons and advice in these pages for you.

This book explains claims-based identity how to use it in the context of some commonly occurring scenarios. This book features a collection of essays and insightful analyses by leaders who have found unusual solutions for writing secure code, designing secure applications, addressing modern challenges such as wireless security, and much more. This is the one and only source of information about Rails security topics, and I keep the community up-to-date with blog posts and conference talks in Europe.

The Guide and the Project has been mentioned in several Rails books and web-sites. This book is the official guide to the Nmap Security Scanner, a free and open source utility used by millions of people for network discovery, administration, and security auditing. Using end-to-end application scenarios, this free book shows you how to design and implement authentication and authorization in WCF Windows Communication Foundation.

This book shows Xbox owners how to increase the value and utility of their system, Hacking the Xbox features step-by-step tutorials on hardware modification that teach basic hacking techniques as well as essential reverse engineering skills. This book is the only published resource devoted to SpamAssassin and how to integrate it effectively into your networks.

In this book, thirteen different Nmap scans are profiled, with advantages, disadvantages, and usage guidelines for each one. Each scan method includes graphical scan descriptions and packet-by-packet analysis!
