A proxy is a third computer that allows communication between two other computers by forwarding requests between them. There are three main types of proxies: forward proxies receive requests from an internal network and send them externally, open proxies forward requests between anywhere on the internet, and reverse proxies receive external requests and send them internally without external users knowing the internal network. Proxies provide security advantages like hiding internal clients, blocking dangerous content, and acting as a single point of access, control and logging.

Hardware firewall
This document discusses hardware firewalls, including:
- Hardware firewalls are physical devices that connect networks to the internet and employ techniques to protect from unauthorized access.
- The main types of firewalls are packet filters, stateful inspection, and proxy services. Packet filters analyze packets against rules, stateful inspection compares key packet parts to a database, and proxy services retrieve information from the internet through the firewall.
- Important factors to consider when looking for a hardware firewall include trusted security, capacity, technical support, VPN support, and failover capabilities. Hardware firewalls provide speed, security, and do not interfere with other applications compared to software firewalls.
Proxy Servers
A proxy server acts as an intermediary between a client and the internet. It allows enterprises to ensure security, administrative control, and caching services. There are different types of proxy servers such as caching proxies, web proxies, content filtering proxies, and anonymizing proxies. Proxy servers can operate in either a transparent or opaque mode. They provide benefits like security, performance improvements through caching, and load balancing but also have disadvantages like creating single points of failure.

Proxy server
A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource available from a different server and the proxy server evaluates the request as a way to simplify and control its complexity.
Network Security
Network security is important to protect vital information while allowing authorized access. Key aspects of network security include identifying vulnerabilities, threats like hackers and methods of attack, and implementing appropriate countermeasures. Common attacks include password attacks, viruses, and packet sniffing. Effective countermeasures include firewalls to control access, intrusion detection systems to monitor for exploits, IPsec and encryption to secure communications, and user education to address social engineering vulnerabilities. Comprehensive security requires backups, encryption, virus protection, firewalls, monitoring, training, and testing defenses.
Topics in network security
This document discusses various topics related to network security including Secure Socket Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS), Virtual Private Network (VPN), firewall, malware analysis, penetration testing, and digital forensics. SSL/TLS provides security at the transport and session layers. A VPN extends private networks across public networks like the internet. Firewalls control incoming and outgoing network traffic based on rules. Malware analysis involves reverse engineering malware to understand its capabilities and behavior. Penetration testing involves authorized hacking to test security. Digital forensics applies scientific principles to the collection, examination, and analysis of digital evidence.

Firewall in Network Security
This document discusses different types of firewalls and how they work. It begins by explaining that firewalls come in many shapes and sizes, and sometimes a firewall is a collection of computers. All communication must pass through the firewall. It then discusses packet filters, stateful packet inspection engines, application gateways, and circuit-level gateways. Packet filters use transport layer information like IP addresses and port numbers to filter traffic. Stateful packet filters track client-server sessions to match return packets. Application gateways run proxy programs that filter traffic at the application layer. Circuit-level gateways filter traffic at the circuit level. A combination of these is known as a dynamic packet filter. The document also discusses additional firewall functions like network address
DDoS Attack PPT by Nitin Bisht
This document discusses distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. It begins by defining a DDoS attack as an attempt to make an online service unavailable by overwhelming it with traffic from multiple sources. It then explains how DDoS attacks work by exploiting vulnerable systems to create large networks of compromised devices that can be directed by an attacker to target a specific system or server. Finally, it discusses different types of DDoS attacks including volumetric attacks, protocol attacks, and application layer attacks and some famous DDoS incidents like attacks on the Church of Scientology and various websites.
Dos attack
A DOS attack is designed to deny legitimate users access to a resource by overwhelming it with requests. There are two main types: a basic DOS attack from a single host, and a distributed DOS (DDOS) attack from multiple compromised machines targeting the same victim. To prevent DOS attacks, organizations can install security patches, use intrusion detection systems to identify illegal activities, configure firewalls to block traffic from attackers, and use access control lists on routers to limit network access and drop suspicious traffic.
Proxy Servers & Firewalls
Proxy servers and firewalls both act as gateways between internal networks and external networks like the internet. Proxy servers improve performance by caching frequently requested content, control bandwidth usage, and filter requests. Firewalls protect internal networks from external threats by packet filtering, analyzing packets, providing proxy services, and logging and alerting administrators of potential threats. Popular proxy software includes Squid, ISA Server, and WinRoute, while popular firewall software includes ISA Server, Cisco PIX, Norton Internet Security, and ZoneAlarm.
Firewall presentation
A firewall is a device or software that provides secure connectivity between internal and external networks by protecting confidential information from unauthorized access, and defending the network and its resources from malicious external users and accidents. There are two main types of firewalls - hardware firewalls which are physical devices that can protect an entire network but are more expensive and complex, and software firewalls which protect individual computers and are cheaper and simpler to configure. Firewall techniques include packet filtering, application gateways, proxy servers, circuit-level gateways, and bastion hosts.

Denial of service
This document discusses denial of service (DoS) and distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. It defines DoS attacks as attempts to render a system unusable or slow it down for legitimate users by overloading its resources. DDoS attacks multiply the effectiveness of DoS by using multiple compromised computers to launch attacks simultaneously. Common DoS attack types like SYN floods, Smurf attacks, and ping of death are described. The rise of botnets, which are networks of compromised computers controlled remotely, enabled more powerful DDoS attacks. Mitigation strategies include load balancing, throttling traffic, and using honeypots to gather attacker information.
Introduction to IDS & IPS - Part 1
Snort is an open source network intrusion detection system that can perform real-time packet analysis, protocol analysis, and content searching/matching. It uses a rules-based approach to detect attacks and unauthorized intrusions. Snort has four main components - the packet sniffer, preprocessors, detection engine, and output. The sniffer captures network packets which are then preprocessed before being analyzed against rules in the detection engine. If a rule matches, alerts are output to various destinations like log files or databases. Snort can operate in different modes like sniffer, packet logger, or network IDS and uses signatures and rules to detect a variety of attacks and exploits.

Network security (vulnerabilities, threats, and attacks)
Network security involves protecting network usability and integrity through hardware and software technologies. It addresses vulnerabilities that threats may exploit to launch attacks. Common vulnerabilities include issues with technologies, configurations, and security policies. Threats aim to take advantage of vulnerabilities and can be structured, unstructured, internal, or external. Common attacks include reconnaissance to gather information, unauthorized access attempts, denial-of-service to disrupt availability, and use of malicious code like worms, viruses, and Trojan horses.
IPS (intrusion prevention system)
IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) is definitely the next level of security technology with its capability to
provide security at all system levels from the operating system kernel to network data packets. It
provides policies and rules for network traffic along with an IDS for alerting system or network
administrators to suspicious traffic, but allows the administrator to provide the action upon being
alerted. Where IDS informs of a potential attack, an IPS makes attempts to stop it. Another huge leap
over IDS, is that IPS has the capability of being able to prevent known intrusion signatures, but also
some unknown attacks due to its database of generic attack behaviours. Thought of as a combination of
IDS and an application layer firewall for protection, IPS is generally considered to be the "next
generation" of IDS.
Intrusion prevention system(ips)
The document discusses intrusion prevention systems (IPS), which monitor network and system activity to identify and block malicious activity. It describes how IPS uses signature-based or anomaly-based detection methods to identify intrusions. IPS can be network-based, host-based, wireless, or focus on network behavior analysis. The document contrasts IPS with intrusion detection systems (IDS), which can only detect and report intrusions, while IPS can actively prevent them. It also compares IPS to firewalls, noting that IPS monitors for unwanted entries while firewalls regulate activity based on set rules.
Firewall presentation m. emin özgünsür
This document discusses different types of firewalls and their functions. It begins by explaining why computers need protection and why firewalls are needed. There are three main types of firewalls: packet filtering, application-level, and circuit-level. Packet filtering firewalls control protocols, IP addresses, and port numbers using rulesets. Application-level firewalls allow or block specific application traffic using mechanisms for each desired application. Circuit-level firewalls relay TCP connections by copying bytes between an external host and internal resource. In summary, firewalls provide network security by controlling access and filtering unauthorized traffic between internal and external networks.
Types Of Firewall Security
Firewall is a network that is used to block certain types of network traffic. It is basically a security system that is designed to protect untrusted access on a private network. Firewall forms a barrier between a trusted and an untrusted network. We are going to tell you the various types of firewall security in this PPT
Network security
Network security involves protecting computer networks from threats. It targets a variety of threats to stop them from entering or spreading on a network. The objectives of network security are access, confidentiality, authentication, integrity, and non-repudiation. As networks became more common in the 1980s and 1990s, security concerns increased and organizations like CERT were created to address issues. Network security uses multiple layers including firewalls, intrusion prevention systems, antivirus software, and encryption to secure networks from threats.
Network security and protocols
This document discusses network security and protocols. It covers internal and external threats to networks like unauthorized access, data destruction, and hacking. It also discusses ways to protect networks from these threats, including passwords, firewalls, encryption, authentication protocols, and virtual local area networks (VLANs). The document outlines concepts like cryptography, digital signatures, and authentication protocols. It also discusses firewalls, storage technologies like RAID, NAS, and SAN for fault tolerance, and tape backups.
Denial of Service Attacks (DoS/DDoS)
This is a presentation i made about Denial of Service or a Distributed Denial of Service (DoS / DDoS) and the latest methods used to crash anything online and the future of such attacks which can disrupt the whole internet . Such attacks which are in TB's and can be launched from just single computer. And, there is not much that can be done to prevent them.
Firewalls
This document discusses why firewalls are needed and provides an overview of firewall basics. It notes that while internet connectivity is convenient, it also invites intruders, so firewalls allow for a controlled link to balance convenience and security. It then defines what a firewall is, describes common firewall techniques like packet filtering, proxy servers, and dual-homed configurations, and discusses the role of firewalls in protecting networks from external threats.

Web Proxy Server
A web proxy server acts as an intermediary between clients and external servers on the internet. It protects clients by filtering traffic and limiting outside access. When a client requests a resource, the proxy server evaluates the request according to its rules before forwarding it to the external server. It then sends the response back to the client. This allows all clients connected to the proxy server to access the internet from behind the firewall with improved security and performance. The proxy server can also cache frequently requested resources to speed up access.

Design and Configuration of App Supportive Indirect Internet Access using a ...
Nowadays apps satisfy a wide array of requirements but are particularly very useful for educational institutions trying to realize their mobile learning systems or for companies wishing to bolster their businesses. A company/institute that wants to perform web filtering, caching, user monitoring etc. and allow Internet access only after authentication might use an explicit proxy. It has
been observed that most of the apps that need to connect to the Internet through an explicit proxy, do not
work whatsoever. In this paper, a solution has been proposed to get the apps working without having to
avoid the use of a proxy server. The solution is developed around transparent proxy and makes use of a captive portal for authentication. Oracle VM VirtualBox was used to develop a test bed for the experiment and pfSense was used as the firewall which has both proxy server and captive portal services integrated on a single platform. When tested, Windows 8 apps as well as Ubuntu apps worked well without sacrificing proxy server services such as web filtering. The proposed solution is widely
applicable and cost-effective as it uses open source software and essentially the same hardware as used
for explicit proxy deployments.
Firewall vpn proxy
A firewall controls incoming and outgoing network traffic to protect devices from attacks. There are three main types: edge firewalls protect individual devices; appliance firewalls are dedicated firewall devices; and network firewalls protect entire networks using routers, bridges, or computer-based software. Firewalls are used to protect networks from probes and attacks, and provide security for less protected devices. Proxies act as intermediaries for network requests, allowing things like caching, filtering, authentication, and load balancing to improve security and performance. Reverse proxies specifically allow external users indirect access to internal servers and websites.
Proxy Server
A Proxy Server is computer that functions as an intermediary between a web browser (such as Internet
Explorer) and the Internet. Proxy servers help improve web performance by storing a copy of frequently
used webpages. When a browser requests a webpage stored in the proxy server's collection (its cache),
it is provided by the proxy server, which is faster than going to the web. Proxy servers also help improve
security by filtering out some web content and malicious software.
A Proxy Server is a server (a computer system or an application) that acts as an intermediary for
requests from clients seeking resources from other servers.
Proxies
A Paid proxy is a server that acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers. A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource available from a different server and the proxy server evaluates the request as a way to simplify and control its complexity. Proxies were invented to add structure and encapsulation to distributed systems. Today, most proxies are web proxies, facilitating access to content on the World Wide Web.

VPNs and proxy networks protect individual identities and are excellent tools for safely viewing material. Because both of these services can complete the task, they are frequently used equally. One, however, preserves your privacy, while the other does not. What is the difference between “VPN vs Proxy”? Many internet users nowadays evaluate a proxy server vs a VPN, asking which one they should use while browsing to secure themselves.
Chapter 4.ppt
Network security involves protecting computer networks and systems from unauthorized access, theft of or damage to hardware, software or electronic data. The chapter discusses network security basics, threats like cyberattacks and phishing, vulnerabilities from weaknesses in TCP/IP protocols and buffer overflows. It also covers network security protocols like IPsec, SSL/TLS, and wireless encryption methods like WEP, WPA, and WPA2 that are used to secure wireless networks and encrypt data transmitted over them. Administrative, technical and physical controls help defend networks against various security risks and assure network integrity and safety.
Vpn-Virtual Private Network
A VPN, or virtual private network, allows users to securely connect to another network over the internet. It encrypts data being sent and received to protect it from being accessed by unauthorized parties on public networks. There are different types of VPNs for various uses, such as intranet VPNs that connect corporate offices, extranet VPNs that connect partners/suppliers, and remote access VPNs that allow individual users to securely access a remote network from anywhere. VPNs provide benefits like security, mobility, and reduced communication costs compared to traditional private networks.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing Days
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
