Introduction to Network Security Matt Curtin March 1997 Reprinted with the permission of Kent Information Services, Inc.

(Also available in and formats for those who prefer, and nicer hardcopy.) Abstract: Network security is a complicated subject, historically only tackled by well-trained and experienced experts.

However, as more and more people become ``wired'', an increasing number of people need to understand the basics of security in a networked world.

It is hoped that the reader will have a wider perspective on security in general, and better understand how to reduce and manage risk personally, at home, and in the workplace.

A basic understanding of computer networks is requisite in order to understand the principles of network security.

UUCP, like any other application, has security tradeoffs.

Some strong points for its security is that it is fairly limited in what it can do, and it's therefore more difficult to trick into doing something it shouldn't; it's been around a long time, and most its bugs have been discovered, analyzed, and fixed; and because UUCP networks are made up of occasional connections to other hosts, it isn't possible for someone on host E to directly make contact with host B , and take advantage of that connection to do something naughty.

For our purposes, though, we're going to focus on the security of IP, or more specifically, the lack thereof.

These are both good examples how trusting untrustable layers can provide security that is -- at best -- weak.
