| Summary |
"UNIX was developed during a more trusting era when the open exchange of information was more valued than airtight system security. With UNIX System Security Tools, you can harden UNIX without losing the openness that made you choose it in the first place." "Featuring a wide selection of tools, from password checkers to firewalls (many of them conveniently packaged on the accompanying CD-ROM), and detailed UNIX security coverage, this one-stop professional package can help improve your security posture and protect valuable data from attackers, intruders, and accidental violations."--BOOK JACKET |
