Firewall
It's not possible to get Security in IT by buying a Firewall. The security
policy - an certain amount of organizational work - is more important
than turn-key software solutions, which are often only used to
calm down the bad conscience.
For this reason the principal purpose of the project is not only
the creation of firewalls, but also the distribution of the necessary
information to build security policies (and the needed Tools to test
them).
firewallsupport.com is
an online support service specifically focused on firewall security.
Here you'll find resources to troubleshoot firewall problems and
expertise to design, implement and manage your firewall infrastructure.
The
right personal firewall should give you multiple layers of solid
protection to safeguard PCs from hackers, spyware, viruses, IM
threats, and other malware.
Choosing and Protecting Passwords.
One of the best ways to protect information or physical property is
to ensure that only authorized people have access to it. Verifying
that someone is the person they claim to be is the next step, and
this authentication process is even more important, and more difficult,
in the cyber world. Passwords are the most common means of authentication,
but if you don't choose good passwords or keep them confidential,
they're almost as ineffective as not having any password at all.
Many systems and services have been successfully broken into due
to the use of insecure and inadequate passwords, and some viruses
and worms have exploited systems by guessing weak passwords.
