Firewalls..............................

If you are on a home network/system with no services, no firewall is required or even recommended.

Firewalls have two uses:

Are you going to take the word of a guy whos network was breached by a 13y/o? Seriously, "stealthing" under many situations can actually give back _more_ information than just having the port closed,...

That's essentially what I said because it true. If you read your sub-cat-thread you'll find real world security standards. Read the link in the other thread. Start there if you have any more...

I'm not here to argue, just to educate.

This post was over catwzeles head so he didn't think it had anything to do with your post. Which couldn't be further from the truth. He's not a security expert and I don't expect him to be, so it was...

Would you run an AV on Linux or FreeBSD or Solaris, etc? Of course not, so why run one for NT which has at least the security capabilities of those other systems? The only systems that benefit from...

I was given negative points from the ill-educated for explaining simple security basics in the past here. So I pretty much keep my knowledge to myself. The link below.

While eating dinner tonight I decided to watch a little TV, good old history channel in fact. As luck would have it I caught a show on security systems, which was followed by a show on art theft. The...

KY Jelly features a warning on the box that states:

RH has dropped all support and good luck with the VC support because I know for a fact that fx 5900 ultra is NC.

I found a receipt in my jacket from about a week and 365 days ago which indicates that I spent $141.00 in a liquor store about 400 miles from here.

The CISSP Prep guide is garbage. My old roommate had it, and...

Ok, let's try this again.

I don't know why you're hung up on the settings being default? The settings should be such that they fit most appropriately within the system. Locking a system down...

Don't confuse lazy admins and a completely unhardened default configuration for "insecure." Remember the DOD-STD-5200.28 C2 and ISO 15408 CAPP/EAL4 evaluations? The Windows NT line is as secure as a...
