Network Security Assessment Top Ten Tips to Make Attackers Lives Hell by Chris McNab, author of Network Security Assessment 03/25/2004 I run a lot of penetration testing exercises against client networks and systems. A lot of the time, testing is relatively straightforward, as the network administrator is not filtering ICMP traffic, and my network scans are not proactively blocked. I love this type of testing, as it's easy and quick to undertake. http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/security/2004/03/25/ntwksecurityassess.html -- ( >- -< ) /~\ __ Scaling FSF/OS in the __ /~\ | \) / Enterprise : trevor.w(a)pvision.biz \ (/ | |_|_ \ Call Now: 9820349221 / _|_| \____________________________________/

Sometime Today, Krishna Dagli assembled some asciibets to say: > Or why not pickup a dead project and survive it. anyone alive has survived a dead project. perhaps you meant to say "revive it". -- The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

Here is how we will go about this. 1. We will create 2 teams of 5 participants each. (Send your name for any of the team. This is your chance to show of your knowledge about your favourite editor and defend it.) 2. If we receive more then 5 names for each team, we will select 5 from all based on some criteria. 3. In the GLUG meet, each team will ask the opponents 10 questions or things to do/accomplish with their editor. The defending team has to answer / accept the challenge. 4. Audience will ask 5 questions to each team. 5. The highest scoring team will be winner of the War of the Words. 6. Names of the judges will be announced shortly.
