Introduction:

At our last meeting, we discussed Freely Available Software Tools. Many of these tools were designed for the purposes of providing Network Access Security and Network Access Monitoring. At our September meeting, we will discuss some popular security related tools and explain how they work and the purpose they serve. Also, Daniel Wexler will provide excerpts from one of his formal Security Seminars.

Here are a few security related tools we will examine:

• Security Tools developed by Wietse Venema which include tcpwrappers, logdaemon, portmap and satan.
• TIS Firewall Toolkit (smap, netacl, http-gw)
• Obtuse Firewall Toolkit (including smtpd)
• udprelay
• lsof and lslk
• tripwire and siggen (includes md5)
• arpwatch
• tcpdump
• cops
• swatch
• xinetd
• socks
• ssh

Complimentary Refreshments will be served.
