Extra Stuff Not Classified

or If the form POSTs to an IP address, users should browse to another site. A Web site should send sensitive information only to a registered site. Here are the four most common forms that users will encounter: • Form page http://www.shop.com/form.html with a form tag of : This is not secure at all, and it doesn't encrypt any of the information. • Form page https://www.shop.com/form.html with a form tag of : This information isn't secure either. When the form sends the data, it initiates a new—not secure—HTTP session. • Form page http://www.shop.com/form.html with a form tag of : This securely transmits information to the form Web site. • Form page https://domain.com/form.html with a form tag of : This also securely transmits information to the form Web site. Making sure data remains secure By securely transmitting data and using SSL to collect sensitive information, a Web site implies that it will keep that information secure. But what really happens behind the Web site? For example, most small companies don't host their own Web sites; instead, they use a Web hosting service. But Web hosting services typically turn that Web form data into an e-mail, a process that more than likely doesn't encrypt the data. This means that anyone with access to the e-mail can easily access customers' sensitive information. Advise users to keep this in mind when surfing the Web, and make sure your organization's Web site makes an effort to reassure its customers about data security. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Myth No. 2: Complex Passwords Enhance Security Your company probably has a policy that mandates complex passwords. For example, they may require a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and special symbols. Windows even includes a Group Policy setting to enforce complex passwords. To understand why this doesn't enhance security and can even lower it, you have to look at what makes a good password in the first place. Any password requirement should ensure that an attacker can't crack it before it becomes invalid or out of date. For example, if you require users to change their passwords every 90 days, it should be extremely unlikely that anyone could succeed at cracking a password within that time. Many old computers allowed passwords made up of only letters, didn't differentiate between lowercase and uppercase letters and limited passwords to just a few characters. Using the 26 characters of the alphabet and allowing for six-letter passwords, there are 300 million possible passwords. This provided adequate security on systems that required manual log-on because it would take an attacker too long to enter enough combinations to find the correct password. Increasing password length to eight characters increases the number of possible combinations to more than 200 billion. Even this has proved inadequate against automated attacks, however, especially offline brute-force attacks that calculate hash values from all possible combinations and compare the results with a captured hash of the target password. These types of attacks quickly crack any password with single-case characters. The only way to truly prevent someone from guessing or cracking your password is to increase the number of different characters within a password--distinguishing between uppercase and lowercase, allowing numbers and special characters. This increases the number of available characters from 26 to roughly 80. Combining eight of these characters creates more than 4 quadrillion combinations, and greatly increases the time required to crack a password. The problem with using excessively complex passwords is that users may be more tempted to write them down, which completely defeats the purpose, no matter how stringent your password requirements. Windows also lets you use longer passwords that may contain spaces and other punctuation characters. This allows for the use of pass phrases, which are "passwords" made up of multiple words. Typing a phrase when logging on may require a few extra keystrokes, but it may actually take less time than locating some special characters on the keyboard. By combining pass phrases with punctuation marks, or small changes to words, you can create even more complexity. Even better, pass phrases are easier to remember and so are more easily accepted by users. They are also less likely to be written down. Unfortunately, not all systems allow for pass phrases. If password length restrictions don't prevent the use of pass phrases, you should consider transitioning to them soon. Doing this not only increases security but makes your users happier with the password guidelines. There are more security myths making the rounds that you'll read about in future Security Advisor columns. For now, I hope that debunking two of the most popular myths will help you increase your password security and not fall victim to inappropriate trust in SSL.

Place operations masters in your domain Generally, you don’t have to do anything to create operations masters in your domain; the process of creating them is automatic and transparent. By default, the first domain controller in a forest is the Schema Master and Domain Naming Master for the enterprise. The first domain controller in each domain is the PDC Emulator, RID Master, and Infrastructure Master for the domain. So, in other words, the first domain controller in a single-domain forest will hold all five operations master roles. Although the operations master roles are assigned automatically by default, you can significantly improve the performance of Active Directory by strategically placing operations masters. We recommend you do the following: You should assign the Schema Master and Domain Naming Master roles to the same domain controller. This domain controller should also be a global catalog server, because both operations masters need to contact a global catalog server in the course of their duties. Ideally, you should assign the PDC Emulator and the RID Master roles to the same domain controller. But, if you find that the workload of both roles is too great for the domain controller, or you want to avoid having a single point of failure for both roles, you can place these two roles on separate domain controllers. One caveat: these two domain controllers must be well-connected, meaning the link between them must be high-speed (such as a LAN link). Don’t assign the Infrastructure Master role to a server that’s also a global catalog server. Doing so causes the Infrastructure Master to function improperly. Because the Infrastructure Master queries the global catalog to find out-of-date information before performing an update, if the Infrastructure Master is also a global catalog server, it won’t ever find out-of-date information. Thus, the Infrastructure Master won’t ever replicate updates throughout the domain. You should assign the Infrastructure Master role to a domain controller with a direct connection object to a global catalog server within the site whenever possible. Doing so improves the performance of the Infrastructure Master (and thus the replication of updates). What about the global catalog server? Although the global catalog server isn’t an operations master, this server can also have a tremendous impact on Active Directory’s performance—especially if you have multiple sites. A global catalog server contains a full replica of all Active Directory objects in its domain. It also contains a partial replica of all objects in other domains. A global catalog server facilitates user logons and access to Active Directory data from different domains. By default, Windows Server 2003 automatically creates one single global catalog server per forest. If you have multiple sites, we strongly recommend that you create a global catalog server at each site to speed up users’ access to Active Directory data. This strategy helps you avoid having users’ Active Directory queries processed across WAN links. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Q. For which domains do you need to run the Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 DomainPrep process? A. You must run ForestPrep once for each Active Directory (AD) forest. Additionally, you must run the DomainPrep for the following domains: - The root domain - Domains that will contain Exchange 2003 servers - Domains that will contain Exchange 2003 mailbox-enabled objects (such as users and groups), even if no Exchange servers will be installed in these domains - All domains that contain Global Catalog (GC) servers that Exchange directory access components might use - All domains that will contain Exchange 2003 users and groups that you'll use to manage your Exchange 2003 organization You must be a domain administrator to run Exchange domainprep but no Exchange permissions are required.

Chris: I was just asked to audit user Internet history for a small office client. They don't have nor want a proxy server and connect to the Internet using a Linksys WRT54G router. I've tried to copy a user's Internet Explorer history and read the history data locally, but that only allowed me to read portions of a user's browsing history. Is there any script or tool that you can recommend to help?
--James
James: Ideally, you want to implement a perimeter device that can audit user Internet activity in real time. Since the office connects to the Internet via a Linksys router, you could consider replacing the default Linksys firmware with OpenWrt http://openwrt.org/ . OpenWrt is open source and adds many more features to the standard Linksys router. For example, you can load the open source Squid proxy onto the router and add VPN functionality as well. Since users can clear their Web browsing history, auditing Web activity externally such as via a Squid proxy server will give you better control of monitoring Web abuse. Not too long ago, accountants and legal assistants, for example, could work without any external network access. Today, many small business network administrators don't need any monitoring tools for their Internet connections. Instead, they can always rely on their users to notify them within seconds of any Internet failure.
As a user, it's easy to see your Internet Explorer history by navigating to the C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\History\History.IE5 folder. From there, you'll see history organized by day of the week for the current week, as well as by subfolders for previous weeks. When browsing other user profiles, Windows Explorer's view of the profile isn't as intuitive. Instead, you will see folders whose names are based on the historical dates that they represent. A folder named MSHist012007010220070103 contains historical data from Jan. 2, 2007 (20070102) to Jan. 3, 2007 (20070103). Within each folder is a file named index.dat. The index.dat file contains the actual history data. Viewing this file in a text editor such as Notepad will reveal much of the history information, but it is difficult to read. An easier way to read history data from any user's profile is by using the tool Index Dat Spy http://tinyurl.com/dfcpc .
Index Dat Spy is free and installs in a few minutes. To use the tool, just copy the user's IE history folder (example: C:\Documents and Settings\dmcnabb\Local Settings\History\History.IE5) to a local folder on your system or to removable media such as a USB drive. Note that each user's Local Settings folder is hidden by default, so you will need to enable the hidden files view in order to see this folder. To see hidden files, in Windows Explorer click the Tools menu, select Folder Options, and then click the Show Hidden Files and Folders radio button.
One you have access to the user's History.IE5 folder, follow these steps:
1. Open Index Dat Spy.
2. In Index Dat Spy, click the File menu and select Open.
3. Browse to the copied History.IE5 folder, select the Index.dat file located within that folder, and click Open.
You should now see the user's Internet history displayed. Without an external Internet usage auditing product such as a proxy server, Index Dat Spy can be a pretty handy tool for viewing a user's Internet Explorer history data. Now, the next time a user complains that "The Internet is down," you can cleverly reply, "Don't worry. You'll have your access to insert embarrassing Web site name here> in no time!"

What is auditing?
Auditing simply allows you to track events and user actions on your network. Some of the possible events you might keep track of include:
• Logins
• Mapping drives
• Resources used
• Identification of the users
• Dates and times of events
• Accessing sensitive material
• System tasks
• Application launches
• Storing files on a hard drive
• Modifications of user accounts
Of course, there are many other items or actions you might consider auditing, but beware of tracking too much. You can easily overwhelm your system's resources and your own ability to use the log files if you're tracking too many items. Each item you decide to track requires some part of each system's resources. If you do too much auditing, users can't access the resources they need to complete their work; not enough, and anyone may be accessing your network with less than good intent. Each network requires a different level of auditing to maintain a secure working environment that functions properly. Your job is to walk the line between protection, resource planning, and user demand when balancing your network's resources.
First step: Use WEP as the foundation
Despite the fact that he found major flaws in WEP, Wagner said it is very important that you use its encryption system as a foundation for good security.
"Surprisingly, a large proportion [of companies] deploy wireless networks without any encryption. So that is the first serious mistake that you can make," Wagner said.
"If you don't have WEP enabled—if you don't have [any] encryption enabled—[you are susceptible to] very serious attacks that require almost no sophistication. So the very first thing that you'd better do if you have a wireless network is...use encryption."
Second step: Isolate the WLAN and enhance encryption After enabling WEP, you should also consider other security measures in order to compensate for its vulnerabilities. Wagner suggested a couple of steps to work around the potential problems of WEP.
"[First,] place your wireless network outside of the firewall. Treat it just like you would the rest of the Internet," Wagner said. " ...recognize that it can't be trusted and anything could happen on it, so you [should] firewall it off from all of your sensitive corporate secrets."
Next, he said to use a virtual private network (VPN) for all traffic on the WLAN. The VPN will do its own end-to-end encryption on top of WEP. You can use such popular VPN protocols as PPTP and IPSec to accomplish this. Then, set up a VPN server/router that connects the WLAN segment to your LAN segment.
A cheaper, but less safe, alternative
Wagner admitted that the above solution might be too costly for some businesses, so he offered another suggestion that provides a limited defensive strategy.
First, it is important to understand that in WEP, there is a signal encryption key that's configured identically for everyone who is supposed to have access to the wireless network. Usually, this key is set up once when the password is handed out and often stays the same for months or years. That said, Wagner suggested that the wireless system employ extensions to WEP that perform dynamic key changes and modify the wireless encryption key once every 10 minutes.
"The problem is that once someone can break it, they've got everything," Wagner said.
"So [by] changing the key once every 10 minutes, you can ensure that if they use this attack against you, they only get something that's...10 minutes worth of data. And second of all, changing the key frequently makes it hard to mount [WEP] attacks."

Takeaway: With the Exchange Management Shell, there are some things that you can do only from the new command line interface.
Like it or not, Microsoft has put a whole ton of effort into making Exchange 2007 completely manageable via a Windows PowerShell-based management interface. In fact, there are some things that you can do only from the new command line interface--not even the GUI can handle these tasks. The Exchange Management Shell, as it's called, is based on Windows PowerShell, which started with the code name Monad. The shell includes very good help features, but, with the complexity of Exchange itself, can get pretty complicated to use. I’m not going to get into providing shell examples in this tip (I will in future tips, though), but will share with you some things that may make using the shell easier.
To get started in the shell, go to Start > All Programs > Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 > Exchange Management Shell. This opens a window that looks a lot like a normal command window but, instead of using the old cmd.exe in the background, this is the new, rather plain-looking PowerShell.
To get a list of Exchange specific commands in the shell, type get-excommand. For a quick guide to getting started with the shell, use the command quickstart instead. As I mentioned, the command shell can be fairly complex, but Microsoft tries to ease this complexity by, for some functions in the GUI command tool (Exchange Management Console), providing you with the complete command line syntax that would have performed the same job. For example, when you use the new mailbox wizard in the GUI, the summary page of the process outputs the command shell syntax. This can be incredibly useful if you want to ultimately be able to script Exchange events. The new command shell is a very welcome addition to the Exchange tools family and makes Exchange management very flexible while providing administrators with a way to automate important functions.

The importance of protecting network access
Every computer that connects to your local area network poses a potential threat. If it’s infected with a virus or spyware, if it doesn’t have adequate firewall protection, has had the latest security updates and patches installed, etc., the entire network can be placed at risk. You have some control over the on-site computers, but what about those that connect to the LAN via remote access, or the laptops that employees bring to work with them after having connected them to home or public networks?
To protect your network, you should set policies requiring that before it can connect to your LAN, a computer has to meet minimum "health" standards. But you can’t always trust users to comply voluntarily, so you need an enforcement mechanism that can determine whether a system meets the standards and prevent it from connecting, or restrict its access, if it doesn’t. That’s where NAP comes in; it’s Microsoft’s health policy compliance platform.

CRAFT YOUR OWN INTERNET USAGE POLICY WITH THIS SAMPLE
The Internet is an important resource for your customers and employees. It is imperative that you inform your users about the purpose and use of the company Intranet and Internet. By educating your users and setting out a clear policy, you'll gain a valuable ally in protecting company assets when users are on the network. The guidelines I present here are generic and should be modified to fit your business model.

Internal penetration testing
A 2004 study conducted by the FBI and the Computer Security Institute revealed that internal attacks account for more than 50 percent of all organized network security breaches. Because most successful attacks are coming from connections that are inside your perimeter security, common sense says this is where you should perform the bulk of your testing.
Conduct testing from different network access points, and include each logical and physical segment. In addition, pay specific attention to wireless coverage that extends beyond the boundaries of your physical perimeter. Social engineering
No penetration test would be complete without addressing this nontechnical approach to exploitation. Social engineering preys on human interaction to obtain or compromise information about an organization and its computer systems.
In a social engineering scheme, the attacker relies on human nature to gain access to unauthorized network resources. This could be in the form of eavesdropping or "shoulder surfing" (i.e., direct observation practices) to obtain access. It can also include data aggregation through "dumpster diving" (e.g., looking for passwords written on sticky notes) or talking to multiple sources and building on data from each source until the attacker has enough information to commence an attack.

Burnout is the exhaustion of physical or emotional strength or motivation and is usually a result of prolonged stress, frustration, or intense activity. People who feel both overworked and under-appreciated are especially prone to burnout; however, even the most competent multitasker is susceptible. One of the simplest, most effective methods of preventing burnout is to take a time-out. 10 signs of impending burnout
Here’s a checklist of some key symptoms that will help you identify when it’s time to take a break:
1. Compromised professional and personal relationships.
2. Inability to focus on your work, especially in front of an audience.
3. Feelings of apathy about the integrity of projects.
4. Frequent emotional outbursts and mood swings.
5. Lack of concern about the consequences of your actions.
6. Sleeping problems, such as restlessness, nightmares, and insomnia.
7. Frequent physical ailments, such as headaches, heartburn, fatigue, and body pains.
8. Inability to relax and not think about work during nonworking hours.
9. Feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and low self-esteem.
10. Obsessing about problems rather than developing solutions.

The act by which an attacker convinces a person in a company to give up confidential information or take an action that compromises company security is known as "pretexting," or "social engineering." defines it as "getting people to do things they wouldn't ordinarily do for a stranger."
Unfortunately, advanced hardware and software security systems can still be defeated, even if unintentionally, by humans within that company.
All warfare is based on deception
Things may not be what they appear to be. Unfortunately, the desire to be helpful and trusting leads people to give out information to those they don't really know. Just because someone says he or she is from the same company doesn't necessarily make it so.
"I'm sorry, but I need authorization before I can give out that information."
"We've had issues previously with forged signatures."
I'm sorry, I'd really like to help, but I'm limited in what I can do."
