Windows Nt Security : A Practical Guide to Securing Windows Nt [January 1998]
|
Although Windows NT is the first mainstream desktop operating system to put security first, confusion remains
about how to harness its full potential.
This authoritative guide provides essential information on how to tap the sophisticated security capabilities
of the Windows NT Operating System. Written by one of the world's foremost systems experts and cosponsored by
the National Computer Security Association (NCSA), it succinctly addresses how to design and administer secure
NT networks-including setting up, using, and managing security within NT workstation and server-and securely
integrating some of the most popular NT server add-ons, such as Microsoft NT BackOffice.
Making existing NT networks more secure is also covered. The book's pragmatic advice on designing secure NT
networks can be applied to small, medium, and large organizations. With Windows NT expected to become the
preferred desktop OS for client/server in the next few years, the market for this practical resource is large and growing.

Internet Security: Professional Reference [April 1998]
|
The book presents a five-part approach. Part one deals with security management, including TCP/IP,
daemons, UUCP, and audit trails. Part two switches perspectives to that of the intruder, showing ways of gaining
illicit accesses and how attempts to do so can be thwarted. Part three examines the challenges of creating secure
channels for messaging. Part four shows how to deal with security concerns raised by Windows NT, Java, and various
viruses. Part five contains the appendices, offering an array of security references and resources where site
managers can find further and updated information. While the need to cram such a vast storehouse of information
into the books rarely allows for a relaxed style of exposition, the authors have done a fine job of keeping
explanations clear and useful to even novice site managers.

Internet Cryptography [May 1998]
|
For all the talk about the Internet's very real security weaknesses, information safety is not all that difficult
to achieve. Yes, most Internet technology does a better job of making information accessible than it does of
protecting privacy. Still, modern cryptographic products and techniques have made more than adequate
security available to just about anyone who needs it. In Internet Cryptography, network security consultant
Richard Smith explains the basics of online security. He avoids getting technical with too much cryptographic
theory or the mathematics behind the magic. Instead he focuses on providing just enough information to enable
information systems managers and administrators to make wise decisions.
