How To Cheat at Managing Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003

For every Microsoft Certified System Engineer (MCSE) managing a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition network within the dust-free confines of a "Network Operating Center," there is a non-MCSE admin managing a Windows Small Business Server 2003 network under far less glamorous conditions. Their job is to keep the network up and running no matter what, with very few resources available. "How to Cheat" is written for these unsung heroes; the last line of defense in most small enterprises.

Self-Defending Networks: The Next Generation of Network Security

Self-Defending Networks: The Next Generation of Network Security helps networking professionals understand how to deploy an end-to-end, integrated network security solution. It presents a clear view of the various components that can be used throughout the network to not only monitor traffic but to allow the network itself to become more proactive in preventing and mitigating network attacks. This security primer provides unique insight into the entire range of Cisco security solutions, showing what each element is capable of doing and how all of the pieces work together to form an end-to-end Self-Defending Network. While other books tend to focus on individual security components, providing in-depth configuration guidelines for various devices and technologies, Self-Defending Networks instead presents a high-level overview of the entire range of technologies and techniques that comprise the latest thinking in proactive network security defenses. This book arms network security professionals with the latest information on the comprehensive suite of Cisco security tools and techniques. Network Admission Control, Network Infection Containment, Dynamic Attack Mitigation, DDoS Mitigation, Host Intrusion Prevention, and Integrated Security Management are all covered, providing the most complete overview of various security systems. It focuses on leveraging integrated management, rather than including a device-by-device manual to implement self-defending networks.

Metasploit Toolkit for Penetration Testing, Exploit Development, and Vulnerability Research

With the arrival of Metasploit Framework Version 3.0 (MSF 3.0), the entire approach to information security testing is likely to be revolutionalized. MSF 3.0 is not only an exploit platform but also a security tool development platform. This book introduces the reader to the main features of the tool, outlines the steps for its installation, and discusses how to use it to run exploits. The book also includes content on advanced usage to automate exploits and run custom payloads and commands on exploited systems. The book covers the entire gamut of security testing—recon modules to determine vulnerable hosts and interface with scanners such as Nmap and Nessus, exploits and payloads to attack the specific vulnerabilities, and post-exploitation goodies to stealthily own the system, and possibly the entire network.
