2. |  By: Jim Cook; Juan Carlos Cantalupo; MinHoon Lee Publisher: IBM Redbooks Publication Date: 29-MAY-2009 Insert Date: 03-JUN-2009 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Security Guide for IBM i V6.1 The IBM® i operation system (formerly IBM i5/OS®) is
considered one of the most secure systems in the industry. From the
beginning, security was designed as an integral part of the system.
The System i® platform provides a rich set of security
features and services that pertain to the goals of authentication,
authorization, integrity, confidentiality, and auditing. However,
if an IBM Client does not know that a service, such as a virtual
private network (VPN) or hardware cryptographic support, exists on
the system, it will not use it.
In addition, there are more and more security...

Although most people don't give security much attention until their
personal or business systems are attacked, this thought-provoking
anthology demonstrates that digital security is not only worth
thinking about, it's also a fascinating topic. Criminals succeed by
exercising enormous creativity, and those defending against them
must do the same.
Beautiful Security explores this challenging subject with
insightful essays and analysis on topics that include:
The underground economy for personal information: how it works,
the relationships among criminals, and some of the new ways...

4. |  By: Brian Contos; Dave Kleiman Publisher: Syngress Publication Date: 23-AUG-2006 Insert Date: 26-MAR-2009 Slots: 1.0 | Today's headlines are littered with news of identity thieves,
organized cyber criminals, corporate espionage, nation-state
threats and even terrorists. They represent the next wave of
security threats but still possess nowhere near the devastating
potential of the most insidious threat: the insider. This is not
the bored 16 year-old hacker. We are talking about insiders like
you and I, who are trusted employees with access to information -
consultants, contractors, partners, visitors, vendors, and cleaning
crews. Anybody within an organization's building or networks that
possesses some level...

6. |  The Security Development Lifecycle: SDL: A Process for Developing Demonstrably More Secure Software By: Michael Howard; Steve Lipner Publisher: Microsoft Press Publication Date: 28-JUN-2006 Insert Date: 13-SEP-2006 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: The Security Development Lifecycle: SDL: A Process for Developing Demonstrably More Secure Software The software industry has been struggling with how to create and
release software that is more security-enhanced and reliable—
the Security Development Lifecycle (SDL) provides a methodology
that works. Adapted from Microsoft’s standard development
process, SDL is a critical way to help reduce the number of
security defects in code at every stage of the development process,
from design to release. In addition to a brief history of the
methodology, this book details each stage of the SDL methodology
and discusses its implementation across a range of Microsoft
software, including Microsoft®...

7. |  By: Phil Windley Publisher: O'Reilly Media, Inc. Publication Date: 01-AUG-2005 Insert Date: 20-SEP-2005 Slots: 1.0 | Overview: Digital Identity
The rise of network-based, automated services in the past decade
has definitely changed the way businesses operate, but not always
for the better. Offering services, conducting transactions and
moving data on the Web opens new opportunities, but many CTOs and
CIOs are more concerned with the risks. Like the rulers of medieval
cities, they've adopted a siege mentality, building walls to keep
the bad guys out. It makes for a secure perimeter, but hampers the
flow of commerce.
Fortunately, some corporations are beginning to rethink how they
provide security, so that interactions with customers,...

Human factors and usability issues have traditionally played a
limited role in security research and secure systems development.
Security experts have largely ignored usability issues--both
because they often failed to recognize the importance of human
factors and because they lacked the expertise to address them.
But there is a growing recognition that today's security
problems can be solved only by addressing issues of usability and
human factors. Increasingly, well-publicized security breaches are
attributed to human errors that might have been prevented through
more usable software....
