Study Notes
Passive Attacks
- Involve eavesdropping or monitoring of network traffic
- Difficult to detect because they do not alter data or disrupt network operations
Active Attacks
- Involve modification or disruption of network communications
- Examples include:
- Man-in-the-middle attacks: Interception and manipulation of communication between parties
- Denial-of-service attacks: Disrupting normal network operations by flooding the system with traffic
Gatekeeper Functions in Network Security
- Purpose is to control access to network resources
- Examples of gatekeeper functions:
- Firewalls
- Intrusion detection systems (IDS)
Implementing the Network Access Security Model
- Requires establishing clear security policies and procedures
- Enforces access controls based on user identities and permissions
- Focuses on protecting data and resources from unauthorized access
Distributing and Sharing Secret Information
- Requires robust cryptographic methods
- Ensures confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of sensitive information
- Examples:
- Encryption algorithms
- Digital signature techniques
Ensuring Authorized Access
- Implement access control mechanisms
- Authenticate and authorize users based on predefined criteria
- Limit access based on roles and permissions
Trusted Computer Systems in Network Access Security Model
- Critical for enforcing security policies effectively
- Must be designed to resist unauthorized modifications
- Ensure the integrity of system components and data operations
