While the Internet has transformed and improved the way we do business, this
vast network and its associated technologies have opened the door to an
increasing number of security threats. The challenge for successful, public
web sites is to encourage access to the site while eliminating undesirable or
malicious traffic and to provide sufficient levels of security without
constraining performance or scalability. The more reliant organizations
become on the Internet to perform daily jobs or conduct transactions, the
greater the impact a breach of network security has. Just as Cisco Systems
has been an innovator in using the Internet to conduct business, so too is it
a market leader in the development and sale of products and technologies that
protect data traveling across the Internet. Yet a network security solution
is only as strong as its weakest link. Network attacks can occur at any
point, including the network connection, the firewall, the web server, or the
client. Hardening the defenses at all these points is key to creating an
effective, all-encompassing network security solution.
Web Security Field Guide provides you with hands-on, proven solutions to help
patch the most common vulnerabilities of Windows(r) web servers and browsers
within the context of an end-to-end network security architecture. Avoiding
conceptual discussions of underlying technologies, the book spends little
time discussing how each application works. Using plain language and lots of
step-by-step examples, the book instead focuses on helping you secure your
web servers and prevent the majority of network attacks. Divided into five
parts, the book opens with an overview of essential background information
and helps you establish working network security rules and policies. Parts II
through IV teach you the techniques for hardening the operating system, the
web server, and the browser. Part V of the book addresses overall network
security, focusing on preventing and controlling access. Topics such as
becoming a Certification Authority, Cisco PIX(r) Firewall, Cisco IOS(r)
Firewall, access lists, ongoing security maintenance, and testing are all
examined in-depth, providing an overall network security plan that can
drastically reduce the risk to your business systems and data.
Full of diagrams, screen captures, and step-by-step instructions for
performing simple tasks that can radically improve the security of your
Internet business solutions, Web Security Field Guide is a practical tool
that can help ensure the integrity and security of your business-critical
applications.
