Great Circle Associates - Internet Security Firewalls Tutorial

The Internet Security Firewalls Tutorial teaches you how to build a firewall between your site and the Internet. We discuss the types of threats that firewalls can (and can't) deal with, and look at a number of different types of firewall schemes. The emphasis is on practical and useful material, including examples, case studies, and war stories. While the concentration is on UNIX workstation and server networks, the tutorial provides information valuable in any TCP/IP networked installation, ranging from single-system sites to large enterprise networks with thousands of nodes.

InfoStructure Services & Technologies, Inc. - NETPROBE SECURITY SCANNER OUTPERFORMS SATAN

NetProbe is a network security analysis program that scans a network for security holes and configuration errors -- holes and errors which an intruder could use for break-ins.

NetProbe checks for more than 85 security holes (roughly twice as many holes as SATAN), saves results for further analysis, and produces easy-to-read reports.

NetProbe executes far faster than SATAN - from a Sun SPARC-5 it can run all tests on 100 hosts in five minutes or less.

NetProbe includes telephone support and updates as new security holes are identified.
