Description
There are many ways that a potential attacker can intercept
information, or learn more about the sender, as the information
travels over a network. Silence on the Wire uncovers these silent
attacks so that system administrators can defend against them, as
well as better understand and monitor their systems.
Silence on the Wire
dissects several unique and
fascinating security and privacy problems associated with the
technologies and protocols used in everyday computing, and shows
how to use this knowledge to learn more about others or to better
defend systems. By taking an indepth look at modern computing, from
hardware on up, the book helps the system administrator to better
understand security issues, and to approach networking from a new,
more creative perspective. The sys admin can apply this knowledge
to network monitoring, policy enforcement, evidence analysis, IDS,
honeypots, firewalls, and forensics.
