Just in case you have not seen it - (hey, I was sending mail to this list
anyway. No, I don't get anything from the book or CLB).

AN EVENT AT COMPUTER LITERACY BOOKSHOPS
----------------------------------------------------------------------
THERE BE DRAGONS:
Firewalls & Internet Security
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A free presentation by Steve Bellovin
AT&Ts security gateway to the Internet, research.att.com,
provides only a limited set of services. Most of the standard servers
have been replaced by a variety of trap programs that look for attacks.
Using these, Bellovin has detected a wide variety of pokes, ranging from
simple doorknob-twisting to determined attempts to break in. The
attacks range from simple attempts to log in as guest to forged
NFS packets. Many other sites are being probed but are unaware of it:
the standard network daemons do not provide administrators with either
appropriate controls and filters or with the logging necessary to detect
attacks.
Find out what dragons will attack - or have attacked - your system.
Steve Bellovin is also the author of "Firewalls and Internet Security".
