To ensure your servers and workstations are well protected against attacks on your network, you need a professional security scanner. In version 6, Tenable has substantially expanded its Nessus vulnerability scanner. We pointed the software at a number of test computers.
Even though corporations are looking to move to IPv6, in some situations networks still rely exclusively on IPv4. We discuss ways to minimize delays and unsatisfactory behavior in mixed IPv4/IPv6 IT environments.
Many shared storage solutions are currently vying for users’ favor; however, Ceph and GlusterFS generate the most press. We compare the two competitors and reveal the strengths and weaknesses of each solution.
Thanks to its huge choice of security tools, Linux is perfectly suited to securing heterogeneous networks. With a specialized distro like Kali Linux, you can quickly locate and eliminate security vulnerabilities.
The LIO multiple-protocol SCSI target is perfectly suited for complex test environments, especially because of its support for SCSI standards across the board.
Port scans for finding vulnerable services are nothing new, and port knocking as a defense has been around for a while, too. TCP Stealth tries to do something similar, but it takes a more sophisticated approach. We take a closer look.
