About Network Computing's Security Channel
On Network Computing's Security channel, our real-world technology editors cover the products, technologies and services that help IT secure enterprise applications, systems and networks. With attacks and viruses flourishing unabated, IT needs to be more proactive in their approach to security than ever before. To that end, we cover traditional anti-virus and emerging new host intrusion protection, or HIPs, solutions that work to keep viruses and malware out of the enterprise. Meanwhile SOAs and Web 2.0 technologies may make securing the enterprise more difficult than ever, so we cover innovative XML and SOA security appliances, not to mention active code protection and scanning tools, that can catch bad or malicious code before it does any real damage. Meanwhile, we cover network behavior anomaly detection systems that can give IT a heads-up when someone or something is up to no good on the network. Meanwhile, vulnerability and malware scanners -- even as they get subsumed into higher level network access control (NAC) systems -- remain a key line of defense in protecting the enterprise. With compliance and regulatory issues coming to the fore, we cover the requirement for enterprises to create strong security and data policies, as well as deploy tools to help them manage and audit access to corporate information. We also cover emerging database extrusion systems that watch for common access violations and report when an intruder is improperly accessing data. Check out our reviews, tests and analysis of security technology and products, and don't miss the latest security news, white papers and featured sites on the topic of security.
