You can strengthen and enhance your company’s internal and perimeter network security by getting the services of a certified Checkpoint engineer. Security vulnerabilities of private and public networks are real concerns that should be addressed decisively.

Without a Checkpoint engineer that could arrest vulnerabilities, your company could face serious network losses. The database and sensitive information stored on your company’s server can also be exposed to hacking. By hiring a Checkpoint engineer, loopholes in your VPN, private networks, and security gateways, could be prevented effectively.

The Benefits of Getting a Certified Checkpoint Engineer

A Checkpoint engineer will be able to implement solutions and manage your company’s network security against hundreds of dynamic application level attacks. A Checkpoint engineer has the expertise in the following checkpoint technologies:

VPN-1 VE
Firewall / VPN
Unified Threat Management
Remote Access
Intrusion Detection & Prevention
Endpoint Security

A Checkpoint Engineer Can Safeguard Your Gateway

A Checkpoint engineer would be able to plug your network against intrusions by implementing perimeter gateway security solutions such as IPS-1 and SmartDefense. Check Point intrusion prevention solutions provide precise, real-time attack mitigation, granular forensic analysis and flexible deployment options. Check Point intrusion prevention solutions are delivered as dedicated IPS appliances or software, and as intrusion prevention that is integrated into Check Point security gateways.
Intrusive traffic will try to merge with legitimate traffic by hiding behind spoofing methods that can bypass network passwords and security checkpoint. A Checkpoint engineer can secure the network gateway against such traffic thus preventing intrusion at the point of entry by using SmartDefense. This maintains the most current preemptive security for the Check Point security infrastructure. To help defenses stay continuously ahead of today’s constantly evolving threat landscape, SmartDefense Services provide ongoing and real-time updates and configuration advice for defenses and security policies found in SmartDefense.

Firewalling Against Denial of Service Attacks

Another important function of a Checkpoint engineer is to establish a firewall solution that will prevent denial of service attacks.

Denial of service is a serious problem that could crash your network resulting to extended outages and network downtimes. Your clients and legitimate users will not be able to access the network if it is experiencing denial of service attacks.

A Checkpoint engineer can deploy a proactive double firewalling solution that screens unidentified data signatures even before it reaches your network gateway. In this way, your network will not experience downtimes caused by such attacks.

Hire a Checkpoint Engineer to Prevent Phishing Operations

Probably the most compelling reason why you need to get a Checkpoint engineer is to prevent information theft. Hackers are always on the look out for vulnerable networks to phish for usernames and passwords. Phishing these information and data would enable hackers to mine your server of important personal records such as credit card numbers, customer list, and trade secrets. ZoneAlarm ForceField is the first virtualized, on-demand browser security solution to enable consumers to bank and shop online, or surf dangerous areas of the Internet without fear or limitation. Built from the ground-up specifically to fight the emerging classes of browser-based Web threats, ForceField also erases all personal information after a Web browsing session to further protect consumer privacy online. Features include browser virtualization, powerful anti-phishing technology, ZoneAlarm’s Spy Site Blocker (also found in the award-winning ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite) and additional dangerous download defenses.

Without a Checkpoint engineer that will implement multiple protocol security nets within you network, the company’s servers and client applications would become easy targets for Phishing operations. Your company’s reputation will suffer and you can lose customers if your network will not get proper security attention from a certified Checkpoint engineer.

Where to Find a Reliable Checkpoint Engineer?

You can simply post a wanted ad if you want a Checkpoint engineer for your company. However, this is tedious and you have no guarantee that applicants really have enough experience to implement complicated security solutions.

To make your life easier, you can check some of the best online security consultants and B2B security websites. These companies can offer superior network security services. They usually have an onboard certified Checkpoint engineer and experts that can help your network ward off malicious attacks.

How to Secure Your Wireless Network

Network Authentication Process

The process of a client associating and authenticating to an access point is standard. Should shared key authentication be selected at the client, there are additional packets sent confirming the keys authenticity.

The following describes EAP network authentication.

 1. Client sends probe to all access points

 2. Access point sends information frame with data rate etc

 3. Client selects nearest matching access point

 4. Client scans access point in order of 802.11a, 802.11b then 802.11g

 5. Data rate is selected

 6. Client associates to access point with SSID

 7. With EAP network authentication the client authenticates with RADIUS server 

Open Authentication

This type of security assigns a string to an access point or several access points defining a logical segmented wireless network known as a service set identifier (SSID). The client can’t associate with an access point unless it is configured with that SSID. Associating with the network is as easy as determining the SSID from any client on the network. The access point can be configured to not broadcast the SSID improving security somewhat. Most companies will implement static or dynamic keys to supplement security of SSID.

Static WEP keys

Configuring your client adapter with a static wired equivalency private (WEP) key improves the security of your wireless transmissions. The access point is configured with the same 40 bit or 128 bit WEP key and during association those encrypted keys are compared. The issue is hackers can intercept wireless packets and decode your WEP key.

Dynamic WEP keys (WPA)

The deployment of dynamic encrypted WEP keys per session strengthens security with a hash algorithm that generates new key pairs at specific intervals making spoofing much more difficult. The protocol standard includes 802.1x authentication methods with TKIP and MIC encryption. Authentication between the wireless client and authentication RADIUS server allows for dynamic administration of security. It should be mentioned that each authentication type will specify Windows platform support. An example is PEAP which requires Windows XP with service pack 2, Windows 2000 with SP4 or Windows 2003 at each client.

The 802.1x standard is an authentication standard with per user and per session encryption with these supported EAP types: EAP-TLS, LEAP, PEAP, EAP-FAST, EAP-TTLS and EAP-SIM. User network authentication credentials have nothing to do with the client computer configuration. Any loss of computer equipment doesn’t affect security. The encryption process is handled with TKIP an enhanced encryption standard improving WEP encryption with per packet key hashing (PPK), message integrity checking (MIC) and broadcast key rotation. The protocol uses 128 bit keys for encrypting data and 64 bit keys for authentication. The transmitter adds some bytes or MIC to a packet before encrypting it and the receiver decrypts and verifies the MIC. Broadcast key rotation will rotate unicast and broadcast keys at specific intervals. Fast reconnect is a WPA feature that is available allowing employees to roam without having to re-authenticate with the RADIUS server should they change floors or rooms. The client username and password is cached with the RADIUS server for a specified period.

EAP-FAST

 • Implements symmetric key algorithm to build secure tunnel

 • Client and RADIUS server side mutual authentication

 • Client sends username and password credential in secure tunnel

EAP-TLS

 • SSL v3 builds an encrypted tunnel

 • Client side and RADIUS server side assigned PKI certificates with mutual  authentication

 • Dynamic per client per session keys used to encrypt data

Protected EAP (PEAP)

 • Implemented at Windows clients with any EAP authentication method

 • Server side RADIUS server authentication with root CA digital certificate

 • Client side authentication with RADIUS server from Microsoft MS-CHAP v2 client with  username and   password encrypted credentials

Wireless Client EAP Network Authentication Process

 1. Client associates with access point

 2. Access point allows 802.1x traffic

 3. Client authenticates RADIUS server certificate

 4. RADIUS server sends username with password encrypted request to client

 5. Client sends username with password encrypted to RADIUS server

 6. RADIUS server and client derive WEP key. RADIUS server sends WEP key to  access point

 7. Access point encrypts 128 bit broadcast key with that dynamic session key. Sends to client.

 8. Client and access point use session key to encrypt/decrypt packets

WPA-PSK

WPA pre-shared keys use some features of static WEP keys and dynamic key protocols. Each client and access point is configured with a specific static passcode. The passcode generates keys that TKIP uses to encrypt data per session. The passcode should be at least 27 characters to defend against dictionary attacks.  

WPA2

The WPA2 standard implements the WPA authentication methods with Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). This encryption method is deployed with government implementations etc. where the most stringent security must be implemented.

Application Layer Passcode

SSG uses a passcode at the application layer. Client can’t authenticate unless they know the passcode. SSG is implemented in public places such as hotels where the client pays for the password allowing access to the network.

VLAN Assignments

As noted companies will deploy access points with SSID assignments that define logical wireless networks. The access point SSID will then be mapped to a VLAN on the wired network that segments traffic from specific groups as they would with the conventional wired network. Wireless deployments with multiple VLANs will then configure 802.1q or ISL Trunking between access point and Ethernet switch.   

Miscellaneous Settings

  • Turn Microsoft File Sharing OFF
  • Implement AntiVirus Software and Firewall
  • Install your company VPN client
  • Turn OFF Auto Connect to any wireless network
  • Never use AdHoc Mode – this allows unknown laptops to connect
  • Avoid signal overrun with a good site survey
  • Use minimal transmit power setting

Anti Theft Option

Some access points have an anti theft option available using padlock and cabling to secure equipment while deployed in public places. This is a key feature with public implementations where access points can be stolen or there is some reason why they must be mounted below the ceiling.

Security Attacks

• Wireless packet sniffers will captures, decode and analyzes packets sent between the client computer and access points. The purpose is to decode security information.  

• Dictionary attacks attempt to determine the decryption key configured on the wireless network using a list or dictionary with thousands of typical passcode phrases. The hacker captures information from the authentication process and scans each dictionary word against the password until a match is found. 

• The specific mode assigned each wireless client affects security. Ad Hoc mode is the least  secure option with no access point authentication. Each computer on the network can send information to an Ad Hoc neighbor computer. Select infrastructure mode where available.

• IP spoofing is a common network attack involving faking or replacing the source IP address of each packet. The network device thinks its communicating with an approved computer. 

• SNMP is sometimes a source of compromised security. Implement SNMP v3 with complex community strings.

How Secure is Your IT Network?

Posted on by
Reply

Nowadays, just about all major businesses and corporations are powered by one or more IT networks and continuously serves as the life and blood of day to day business operations. Each of the units or nodes of the network are powered by computers and individuals that work together in their dedicated positions and fulfil their roles assigned. IT networks are so delicate since any disturbance in the network can either hinder or slow down the overall network performance to a certain degree. Not only must the network administrators do their jobs in preventing these issues from happening, but they must also evaluate how secure their IT networks are.

What about your network?

Have you ever considered doing a security audit for your network?

Just because your network has never bumped into any problems doesn’t mean that the security is at its maximum. Therefore it is important to test your computer for any network vulnerabilities and stay updated with the current trends to see if new network vulnerabilities are discovered that may pose a threat to your network one day.

There will always be people that are up to no good in developing hacking programs and viruses that are specifically meant to disrupt or harm networks directly. These methods may involve data theft, data corruption, or a combination of the two and for the average business this can be a serious threat to the wellbeing of the network and business.

Security software and services are one of the allies of these networks that aim to hinder these rogue software and stay one step ahead of the threats to prevent IT networks from suffering at all. The payload of these vulnerabilities can sometimes be irreversible like if data is stolen so preventative measures must be forced, especially in businesses that have highly sensitive data in their servers.

Resorting to the various security software and services shouldn’t be the only option, as they may not have defence to the newest threats out there right away. By making a habit to do your own network security maintenances, you can keep these new threats at bay and wait for your network security programs to update.

Common things to protect are sensitive files and entry web pages of the network. Passwords are a good first line defence to restrict access to the individuals within the network who know the password. Making the password complicated can reduce the risks of brute force attacks – a common method in breaking through password protected areas. Using the latest system software from operating system to other programs that have network access can also reduce the chances of a security breech since patches aim to plug in security holes.

Always take some time off to check your networks security. If you have no knowledge on how to do it, you can always ask a skilled hacker to try and break into your network. Former hackers are the best people to consult as these people dedicate themselves to helping personnel and using their previous hacking to improve the security of networks. This will allow your network to run smoothly without fear of a network crisis.

Secure flash drives were first brought to the market in the year 2000. They had a capacity of 8 MB which was five times that of floppy drives. Another advantage of secure flash drives was that it had no moveable parts which meant no wear and tear due to movement. Actually the word ‘drive’ was a throwback to the disk type storage devices. Strictly secure flash drives have no drives.

From an insignificant memory , secure flash drives are now available with much larger capacities .In fact secure flash drive with 256 MB memory and smaller are being phased out and by 2009 those with 512 MB capacity flash memory will also become history . Higher speeds, faster access times and more reliable and secure flash drives are appearing in the market with capacities of up to 64 GB.

The limitation concerning restriction in number of write instructions is also being addressed. As on date secure flash drive cannot be used as a regular hard drive because of limited write instructions.

Secure Flash Drive Developments

Security is a major concern for a secure flash drive. Wide ranging developments are taking place and SanDisk as a pioneer in this field is spearheading this initiative. SanDisk has introduced secure flash drive named SD Plus, which is a SecureDigital card with a USB connector. SanDisk has also come out with a new technology to permit controlled storage and usage of copyrighted materials on flash drives, primarily for use by students. This technology is termed FlashCP.

In future secure flash drives will fully replace traditional hard disks . This will bring several benefits. One of the main reasons for failure of hard disks with drives is moving parts. Due to this scratches and damage to the media are inescapable, while secure flash drives do not have such a limitation. Access speed also becomes faster with secure flash drives. The small and compact size of a secure flash drive makes it a favorite with travelers and professionals on the move. As secure flash drives become even more compact, their usage will increase many fold. This popularity will require further strengthening of security features. Challenges to meet secure data storage requirements, retrieval and recovery in case of compromised situations will become increasingly more complex. As we look ahead to the future, product companies like SanDisk will develop secure flash drives which will be faster, carry more capacity and will provide a high level of security.

The History of Sandisk’s Secure Usb Drive

Posted on by
Reply

The history of secure USB drive began not very long ago in 2000. Trek Technology brought out the “ThumbDrive,” and around the same time secure USB drives were introduced by IBM called the “DiskOnKey” with astorage capacity of 8 MB which in comparison to floppy drives of those times was a hefty size.

The design of a secure flash drive consists of NAND gates which are electronic digital switches. Though secure flash drive manufacturers migrated to the modern USB 2.0 technology, the NAND design did not permit speeds higher of 480 megabits per second which USB 2.0 was capable of. This limitation meant that secure USB drives could not operate at speeds of which hard disks are capable. The reading and writing speeds of a secure flash drive vary considerably with the former twice that of the later.

Secure USB Drive Styles

From a simple packaging style, secure USB drive has evolved and has taken various sizes and shapes, though the internal circuitry remains unchanged. USB 2.0 is commonly found in modern devices .However not all USB 2.0 compatible secure USB drives work at the same speed. Dual channel controller is used in many secure USB drives which speeds up the operations. Still, traditional hard disk drives are however much faster than secure USB drives.

While secure USB drives were initially used exclusively to store data, its usage has spread to other areas as well. Many secure USB drives sport an mp3 player and many are used as video playing devices. Data backup still remains an important function of USB drives. Due to its easy portability, secure USB drives are a favorite of marketing professionals for carrying product demonstrations and digital presentations.

Secure USB Drive – The Need for Security

Security has been a major issue with secure USB drives. During the first launch of USB drives there were no security features incorporated in the device. SanDisk is a pioneer in developing highly secure USB drives. Both hardware and software security features are now regularly available.

What started as a simple storage device, a secure USB drive has evolved into a complex device capable of executing various functions. The security features have also undergone a metamorphosis with SanDisk leading the way. State of art secure USB drives are now used even by the military for which SanDisk has specifically designed high security USB drives. The speed of access and usage period has also been enhanced over a period of time. Secure USB drives have become a part and parcel of digital world.

Secure USB devices are becoming popular for storing enterprise data because of new security features incorporated by device manufacturers. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly difficult to monitor and ensure physical security of these devices. Losing a secure USB device is to be expected and corrective measures initiated to recover lost or stolen data. The obvious solution for countering lost or stolen secure USB is to provide a centralized enterprise management which would manage password policy and recovery procedures remotely. Keeping track of secure USB devices and monitoring them should become feasible with such a central system.

Secure USB Drive with CMC

SanDisk is a pioneer in remote management of secure USB devices. Their CMC, or Central Management and Control, is available with many of their secure USB devices. The major advantage of CMC is its integration with Active Directory to create device-user association and password policies . This translates into a centralized deployment of secure USB devices providing remote
updates and configuration of device parameters. It is also possible to administer password remotely. Those with some working experience with secure USB devices will understand the importance of managing password remotely since employees are notorious in forgetting passwords quite frequently.

Another aspect of a secure USB device in an enterprise environment is that data stored in these devices can be accessed by non authorized persons due to negligence or by persons with criminal intent. The CMC has provision to remotely terminate the data access control of  any lost secure flash drive . In addition it prevents secure USB devices from being used with unauthorized PC’s . The design of CMC ensures that the embedded timing mechanism forces drives to connect to the CMC server, thus eliminating unauthorized use.

Secure USB Data Availability

In case of loss of secure USB device there is a possibility that important data is either compromised or entirely lost. With remote centralized operations one can restore or recreate lost and stolen secure USB device. This also ensures high availability.Remote administration of secure USB devices ensures high availability, monitoring and control.

Enterprise data is full protected and in case of theft or loss, the password of secure USB device can be changed or locked to make it inaccessible. In such cases it is also possible to retrieve and recreate the data stored on the secure USB with the help of remote centralized operations. In practice such a capability to remotely manage secure USB devices is invaluable in an enterprise environment.

Get a Secured Loan and Find Solutions in a Secure Manner

Posted on by
Reply

The secured loan is given to borrowers after they have given some sort of security to the lenders. This security can be in the form of their houses, factories and other intangible form of assets.

An individual who wants to take a secured loan is required to follow some rules and complete some requirements. These rules and requirements are simple and do not pose much of a problem.

Secured loans are given by banks and financial institutions. Many companies also provide secured loans now. Therefore, there are many choices for the borrower in the form of numerous banks, financial institutions and companies.

Before taking the loan, there is an extremely important step which needs to be taken by the borrowers. They need to find out one simple thing. This ‘simple thing’ is their eligibility for taking a secured loan.

The borrower has to be a citizen of UK and has to be at least eighteen years old. He also needs to have a permanent residence. The bank requires something in return for the money that it gives in the form of a secured loan. This is normally referred to as ‘pledging’ and is one of the primary requirements for taking a secured loan.

The basic documents that are required for taking a secured loan are also the normal ones which are generally required. The borrower needs to give an age proof, an identity proof and a copy of the relevant documents.

The UK loans sector has been one of the major examples of strength and fortitude. The current global situation is that of recession. Money is no longer a ‘freely flowing entity’ in most of the economies. However, the UK economy has been successful in keeping its lending sector relatively safe.

Hence, the borrower still has many banks and financial institutions who are giving secured loans. Entrepreneurs have also ventured into the business of secured loans. Company (loan based) is the basic medium for the borrowers. Therefore, companies of most of these entrepreneurs are also giving secured loans. This has increased the trust of the common man in the British economy.

Hence, a secured loan is still being applied for. The standard of living is quite high and the income being earned is also quite impressive. The credit rating of borrowers taking secured loans is normally very good. This has increased trust of the banks on them.

The Internet is one of the major source of information about a secured loan. There are many websites which give all the required information about secured loans. The borrower, therefore, needs to go to any of these websites in order to have a complete understanding about a secured loan.

These websites are normally the official websites of major banks and financial institutions. There are also websites of financial intermediaries giving information about secured loans.

There are also many innovative and useful applications present on most of these websites. One of them is the comparison tool. This is an application which is normally present on websites of the intermediaries.

The purpose of a comparison tool is to provide an outlook about the features of the secured loans being given. The parameters for comparison are normally the interest rate and the tenure for giving the borrowed money back.

A Secure Flash Drive Can Avert Security Breaches

Posted on by

With the millions of flash drives in use today a secure flash drive is essential for averting breaches of security. The number of security breaches reported has risen almost 50% and is likely to continue to rise. While the secure flash drive has makes data incredibly mobile it also makes it more vulnerable to loss and theft. If you are using less then secure flash drive you might want to look into SanDisk Enterprise. They produce a secure flash drive that features top of the line security including anti-virus software which drastically reduces the chances of uploading a virus to the operating system via a flash drive.

The Secure Flash Drive under Attack

The use of secure flash drive is necessary to prevent attacks on the valuable data they contain. Security software for flash drives is called anti-malware and can stop data corruption. This anti-virus software when part of a secure flash drive prevents the flash drive from playing host to a virus which then may be uploaded to an operating system. McAfee a global security company provides software for SanDisk Enterprise’s secure flash drive. It scans the flash drive for potential attacks to the host operating system and quarantines them. The software is so effective it removes the threat of attack before it has an opportunity to access the operating system.

The need to utilize a secure flash drive and provide both front end and back end security is a concern if mobile data is to remain intact. Employees that need mobile data need flash drives that are encrypted for security reasons. An adequately secure flash drive will feature the encryption necessary to protect information from being exploited by unauthorized users. A strong front end defense is a strong password authentication process that can work to avert breaches effectively. This in turn allows data to be transferred and stored with confidence. In order to consider it a secure flash drive it must utilize at least an 8-letter combination
password which has been proven unbreakable.

The Secure Flash Drive and Central Control

A secure flash drive to be truly protected against breaches must be controlled from a central control server. Anything less then this places the flash drive at risk. Recently the US Military was forced to put a ban on the use of flash drives because many personnel were not utilizing a secure flash drive. Once the threat was recognized the only way to get control was to place a ban on the use of all flash drives. Without a secure flash drive controlled from a central server the only way to safeguard the operating system is to put a system wide ban on the use of all flash drives. This situation could have easily been avoided with the flash drive system produced by SanDisk Enterprise.

A secure flash drive also eliminates still another threat that exists and that is in the manner in which data is transferred. A solution for the US Military should have been to implement a secure flash drive for their personnel like the ones produced by SanDisk Enterprise. They use the AES 256-bit encryption to protect data from security breaches. Flash drives that receive or store data that is not encrypted during the transfer process as well as after the transfer is complete are vulnerable to a breach. In the event a secure flash drive transmission is intercepted it is going to be useless because the encryption will prevent access to the data contained in the transfer.

A secure USB drive is important to those using Mac’s or PC’s who want to stop the exploiting of confidential data. The thieves are not concerned whether your operating system is Mac or PC. But now a secure USB drive is available as an effective strategy to ward off an attack regardless of which system you use. It would seem at this point if you want to keep your mobile data safe a secure USB drive is in your future interest.

Safety and Security with a Secure USB Drive

A secure USB drive has been produced by SanDisk with safety and security in mind. The drives are compatible with Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5 featuring the best known encryption algorithm developed to date. The secure USB drive has data encryption that is hardware based and is more secure then software based encryption. Strong authentication means if the flash drive is stolen would be thieves are locked out after a number of failed passwords attempts. This essential prevents any unauthorized user from accessing data. The secure USB drive is also hardware based and is independent of the operating system so access to password keys is not possible from within the operating system.

Investing in a secure USB drive like the units produced by SanDisk is an investment in the company’s future revenue. The confidential data company personnel access everyday is valuable not only to future of the company but to thieves as looking to exploit the data. A secure USB drive can prevent unauthorized access to data through encryption.  Even if lost or stolen encryption makes the data the flash drive contains useless. The mindset use to be that only outsiders were interested in gaining access to secure data but a secure USB drive keeps everyone honest, including employees. Various companies have reported the loss of confidential and sensitive data at the hands of trusted personnel.

A Secure USB Drive on Both Ends

One consideration for using a secure USB drive is the strength it possesses on both ends. Sometimes attackers are not interested in specific data and are not out to exploit data, but only to corrupt it. SanDisk Enterprise partners with McAfee a global security company which scans the secure USB drive for viruses with their anti-malware software and eliminates any threat to data or your operating system before it has an opportunity to reach it. Hackers have been known to use the flash drive as a host to get a virus into the operating system and force it to crash. A secure USB drive with anti-malware will detect such a threat and neutralize it before it can cause any damage to data.

A secure USB drive must have a strong front end and back end which will virtually eliminated access by would be unauthorized users. Strong front end security is provided by passwords that are complex and cannot be hacked or guessed. The administration of passwords for the a secure USB drive is an important part of a strong front end which can keep data safe even if the flash drive is lost or stolen.  Data encryption is a mandatory security measure to prevent access even if the strong front end is thwarted. SanDisk Enterprise produces a secure USB drive equipped with data encryption designed with a strong algorithm which will make data impossible to access by hackers and thieves.
