Hi,

I'm new to libnet, and I'm trying to add support for a new frame format in libnet as part of a project I've to do. Could anyone point me to the files and existing functions where I will need to add/edit code to add the data structures and APIs to accomplish this task?

Thanks!

Bay Area Security User Group

2005-08-08T05:29:15Z

All,

I recently moved from Paris to the Bay Area, working for a company named Wind River where I am responsible for Information Security and currently I try to establish a security group in the bay area. The goal is to provide a forum for experts to encourage discussion and share expertise in understanding the latest trends and security threats facing computer networks, systems and data.

Members should be Information Security practitioners, managers, network administrators, etc.

The meetings are intended to be performed on a monthly basis. The location hasn’t been verified yet but I am looking at hosting the event in Alameda.

The meetings will not be used for solicitation purposes from any vendors. Although, some speakers may be from specific vendors, the emphasis will be on the concepts and solutions and not specific products or services.

Contact me if you are interested in becoming a member and everything is still open for discussions therefore feel free to email me suggestions. Remember: the plan is to establish the possibility to exchange of knowledge and skills among a wide variety of information security experts.

"Measuring IT security" is a broad concept, but a comprehensive risk assessment is the best way to gage overall security posture. Vulnerability assessment is just one piece of that. Standards for best practice, like ISO17799, force you to consider every part of your organization as it relates to infosec. There are many risk assessment frameworks, guidelines and tools available from sites like sans.org, nist.gov, issa.org, etc., as well as commercial offerings.

Unfortunately, there's no cut & dried scoring system, nor a universally adopted measurement standard, so keep your expectations (and management's expectations) realistic. Involve EVERYONE in your assessment and in your security program. I've seen companies ignore outside contractors, cleaning services and maintenance workers because they weren't permanent, full-time employees. That's like ignoring the key under the door mat.

Subject	Is there any way to measure IT Security??

Dear all,

Currently I’m looking for a tool, or a technique to measure IT security?

The baseline for security is CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability), that is every organization which want to called secure must be guarantee that their system comply this matter.
But the problem is, we need a tool/technique to measure how secure are we. Therefore, wee need a tool/technique to measure how close that our system status now to CIA.

Please share your experience about this matter.
If there any link about this issue, I really appreciate if you share to us (You may contact me privately) .

Best Regs,

Toto

Larry,

I have worked for major fortune 100 and 500 companies. Some of these
companies use a product called Enterprise Security Management and is made by

Basically IT Security covers a gamut of areas, i am just listing some , on the fly

* Antivirus Solutions
* Intrusion Prevention
* Intrusion Detection
* Patch Management
* Firewall
* VPN Gateway
* Vulnerability Assessment & Reporting
* Identity Access Management (single-sign-on, SOX/HIPAA/GLB compliance....)
* Network Security
* Security Policy Compliance Management
* AntiSpam (mail protection software)
* Web Content Filtering

I'm not sure whether we have one-size-fits-all solution which can help us in measuring your enterprise IT Security posture.

I can list some good tools i have come across personally like NMap, ScanFi, Nessus, IdentityAccess Manager,GFI ....but the list is endless, so give them a try in google :-)

Toto,

I am afraid that no tool can fulfill your requirement. I think in order to be able to measure the effectiveness of your IT security controls; you should first start with defining security policies fitting your organizational requirements. Based on these policies and your corporate security strategy you can define security metrics to measure conformance with the security policies. As an example the number/percentage of audited/security accredited systems (against the system security policy) is a metric you can use in order to measure the effectiveness of your system security policy (preventive control).

I wouldn’t rather think in tools, but processes within your IT security department to help you out drive performance, and achieve policy compliance.

Hope this helps

Salah
