  4. In-Line Content Filtering Email sent Feb 27th to Content Filter Users : “As you build your images, please go into the Google and Yahoo preferences for all of the supported browsers and select Strict Safe Search. Also try to lock it down so your users can not change it. And after we cut you over, be ready for the calls from those PC’s that you have not touched. Good communications before hand will help us through this.” Just a reminder! Thanks!!

  6. Conficker Worm • Millions of computers worldwide have already been infected with the Conficker worm. • So far, it hasn't done any major damage, but it is replicating itself. And on Wednesday, it's apparently programmed to "phone home," possibly getting instructions from some master computer to start causing real problems. • Most experts don't expect anything dramatic on Wednesday, but Windows users are being advised to make sure to apply the latest Microsoft security patch and to be sure they're using up-to-date antivirus software. • http://isc.sans.org/podcast.html • http://www.myfoxdc.com/dpp/news/local/040109_conficker_worm

  7. Conficker Worm • http://insecure.org/ • The Conficker worm is receiving a lot of attention because of its vast scale (millions of machines infected) and advanced update mechanisms. Its botnet army is scheduled for new updates and instructions starting on Wednesday (4/1), and nobody (except the bad guys) knows exactly what those instructions will be. • http://nmap.org/ • Nmap ("Network Mapper") is a free and open source (license) utility for network exploration or security auditing. Many systems and network administrators also find it useful for tasks such as network inventory, managing service upgrade schedules, and monitoring host or service uptime. Nmap uses raw IP packets in novel ways to determine what hosts are available on the network, what services (application name and version) those hosts are offering, what operating systems (and OS versions) they are running, what type of packet filters/firewalls are in use, and dozens of other characteristics. It was designed to rapidly scan large networks, but works fine against single hosts. Nmap runs on all major computer operating systems, and both console and graphical versions are available.

  8. Infoblox Presentation • Brought to you by Tim Slattery of CNI (610) 656-2256 • Presented by Infoblox • Phil Regan • 610-256-6535 • pregan@infoblox.com • Infoblox pioneered the development of core network services appliances, which deliver utility-grade domain name resolution (DNS), IP address assignment and management (DHCP/IPAM), authentication and authorization (RADIUS), configuration (TFTP/HTTP), and network time (NTP). Infoblox solutions control and automate the core services that drive all networks and applications. • Read more: "Infoblox Overview: Leading Core Network Services Appliances Developer" - http://www.infoblox.com/company/index.cfm#ixzz0BMldloYI
