| centralized ssh key management: NETWORK SECURITY FUNDAMENTALS: CONCEPTS, TECHNOLOGIES, AND BEST PRACTICES Amit Vyas, Dr. Archana Salve, Anjali Joshi, Haewon Byeon, 2023-07-17 The phrase network security refers to the measures and processes that are carried out in order to secure computer networks and the resources that are associated with them against unauthorized access, misapplication, modification, or interruption. This may be done by preventing unauthorized users from accessing the network, misusing the network's resources, or interrupting the network's operation. It is of the highest importance to preserve the security of these networks in a world that is getting more and more integrated, where information is routinely traded and transmitted across a variety of different networks. A secure environment that safeguards the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of data and network resources is the primary goal of network security. This purpose requires that a secure environment be provided. This is achieved by ensuring that these assets are not accessible to unauthorized parties. The protection of confidentiality ensures that sensitive information may only be accessed and read by those individuals who have been specifically granted permission to do so. The reliability of the data will not be compromised in any way, and it will maintain its integrity even while being sent and stored. This is what is meant by data integrity. When it comes to a network, having high availability ensures that all of its services and resources may be accessible by authorized users whenever it is necessary for them to do so. The safeguarding of a computer network calls for a combination of hardware, software, and operational controls to be implemented. These protections protect the network against a wide range of attacks, including those listed below: |

| centralized ssh key management: SSH, The Secure Shell Daniel J. Barrett, Richard E. Silverman, Robert G. Byrnes, 2005-05-10 Are you serious about network security? Then check out SSH, the Secure Shell, which provides key-based authentication and transparent encryption for your network connections. It's reliable, robust, and reasonably easy to use, and both free and commercial implementations are widely available for most operating systems. While it doesn't solve every privacy and security problem, SSH eliminates several of them very effectively. Everything you want to know about SSH is in our second edition of SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide. This updated book thoroughly covers the latest SSH-2 protocol for system administrators and end users interested in using this increasingly popular TCP/IP-based solution. How does it work? Whenever data is sent to the network, SSH automatically encrypts it. When data reaches its intended recipient, SSH decrypts it. The result is transparent encryption-users can work normally, unaware that their communications are already encrypted. SSH supports secure file transfer between computers, secure remote logins, and a unique tunneling capability that adds encryption to otherwise insecure network applications. With SSH, users can freely navigate the Internet, and system administrators can secure their networks or perform remote administration. Written for a wide, technical audience, SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide covers several implementations of SSH for different operating systems and computing environments. Whether you're an individual running Linux machines at home, a corporate network administrator with thousands of users, or a PC/Mac owner who just wants a secure way to telnet or transfer files between machines, our indispensable guide has you covered. It starts with simple installation and use of SSH, and works its way to in-depth case studies on large, sensitive computer networks. No matter where or how you're shipping information, SSH, The Secure Shell: The Definitive Guide will show you how to do it securely. |

It needs to be an integrated infrastructure that can support new applications. It needs to have integrated capabilities that can provide new mobile capabilities with real-time analytics delivered by a secure cloud infrastructure. IBM z13 is designed with improved scalability, performance, security, resiliency, availability, and virtualization. The superscalar design allows the z13 to deliver a record level of capacity over the prior IBM z SystemsTM. In its maximum configuration, z13 is powered by up to 141 client characterizable microprocessors (cores) running at 5 GHz. This configuration can run more than 110,000 millions of instructions per second (MIPS) and up to 10 TB of client memory. The IBM z13 Model NE1 is estimated to provide up to 40% more total system capacity than the IBM zEnterprise® EC12 (zEC1) Model HA1. This book provides information about the IBM z13 and its functions, features, and associated software support. Greater detail is offered in areas relevant to technical planning. It is intended for systems engineers, consultants, planners, and anyone who wants to understand the IBM z Systems functions and plan for their usage.

| centralized ssh key management: Privileged Attack Vectors Morey J. Haber, 2020-06-13 See how privileges, insecure passwords, administrative rights, and remote access can be combined as an attack vector to breach any organization. Cyber attacks continue to increase in volume and sophistication. It is not a matter of if, but when, your organization will be breached. Threat actors target the path of least resistance: users and their privileges. In decades past, an entire enterprise might be sufficiently managed through just a handful of credentials. Today’s environmental complexity has seen an explosion of privileged credentials for many different account types such as domain and local administrators, operating systems (Windows, Unix, Linux, macOS, etc.), directory services, databases, applications, cloud instances, networking hardware, Internet of Things (IoT), social media, and so many more. When unmanaged, these privileged credentials pose a significant threat from external hackers and insider threats. We are experiencing an expanding universe of privileged accounts almost everywhere. There is no one solution or strategy to provide the protection you need against all vectors and stages of an attack. And while some new and innovative products will help protect against or detect against a privilege attack, they are not guaranteed to stop 100% of malicious activity. The volume and frequency of privilege-based attacks continues to increase and test the limits of existing security controls and solution implementations. Privileged Attack Vectors details the risks associated with poor privilege management, the techniques that threat actors leverage, and the defensive measures that organizations should adopt to protect against an incident, protect against lateral movement, and improve the ability to detect malicious activity due to the inappropriate usage of privileged credentials. This revised and expanded second edition covers new attack vectors, has updated definitions for privileged access management (PAM), new strategies for defense, tested empirical steps for a successful implementation, and includes new disciplines for least privilege endpoint management and privileged remote access. What You Will Learn Know how identities, accounts, credentials, passwords, and exploits can be leveraged to escalate privileges during an attack Implement defensive and monitoring strategies to mitigate privilege threats and risk Understand a 10-step universal privilege management implementation plan to guide you through a successful privilege access management journeyDevelop a comprehensive model for documenting risk, compliance, and reporting based on privilege session activity Who This Book Is For Security management professionals, new security professionals, and auditors looking to understand and solve privilege access management problems |
