Managing A Network Vulnerability Assessment de Thomas R. Peltier

Managing A Network Vulnerability Assessment

Autor Thomas R. Peltier, Justin Peltier, John A. Blackley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 mai 2003
The instant access that hackers have to the latest tools and techniques demands that companies become more aggressive in defending the security of their networks. Conducting a network vulnerability assessment, a self-induced hack attack, identifies the network components and faults in policies, and procedures that expose a company to the damage caused by malicious network intruders.

Managing a Network Vulnerability Assessment provides a formal framework for finding and eliminating network security threats, ensuring that no vulnerabilities are overlooked. This thorough overview focuses on the steps necessary to successfully manage an assessment, including the development of a scope statement, the understanding and proper use of assessment methodology, the creation of an expert assessment team, and the production of a valuable response report. The book also details what commercial, freeware, and shareware tools are available, how they work, and how to use them.

By following the procedures outlined in this guide, a company can pinpoint what individual parts of their network need to be hardened, and avoid expensive and unnecessary purchases.

Recenzii

"Readers will find detailed definitions, thorough explanations, step-by-step procedures, and sample reports to guide them through a network vulnerability assessment (NVA). … [The book] is clear and easy to read, conveying the authors' outstanding grasp of the material. Despite the extremely detailed content, the presentation is not too technical or confusing. Numerous graphs, sample reports, and computer illustrations effectively support the text. … Of the many readers who would benefit from this work, security managers responsible for computer protection will learn how to conduct an NVA. IT professionals will benefit from the exposure to detailed security concepts and procedures. Finally, college instructors and students will find that the work serves as an excellent educational resource."
