Website Security

Paper Summary:

This paper describes a virtual website, similar to KaZaA in the file-swapping aspect, but instead of music, provides first-rate Hollywood-caliber movies, from which members have the opportunity to download specialized encryption software to their system. The author points out that website security for the Internet and internal networked environments has three basic objectives: confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The paper states that the website will require various software tools, such as encryption and database software, firewalls, routers and other hardware, but the keys to security are reputable vendors, who are reliable with support and well-trained, and knowledgeable network administrators and personnel.

From the Paper:

"Whatever the case, our website security aspirations will be very difficult to achieve. In the modern world, a high school kid with a failing average could easily gain unauthorized access to an insecure network or website environment. The real problem is that many people know exactly what they are doing because today's adolescents have grown up with technology and they understand it. Couple this with the fact that whole nations and industries have become computer crime intruders such as what has occurred in China. Network security engineers have to be on the lookout for many attacks."
