Thanks for attending! Up Next: Network Security
Network Security Topics • Hackers & Other Cyber Thugs • Viruses & ETDs • Routers & Firewalls • Servers & Passwords • Privacy & HIPPAA Compliance Tips
Hackers & Cyber Thugs • Who are they? • Where are they? • Why do they do it? • How am I vulnerable? • What can I do to protect myself?
Hackers: Who Are They? • Entrepreneurs • Geniuses • From all walks of life • Programmers • Thieves • Too smart for their own good, with a computer & internet connection!
Hackers: Where Are They? • Next Door • College Campuses • Living with Mom & Dad • Overseas • China • Russia • Third World Countries
Hackers: Why Do They Do It? • They are bored • They consider it a challenge • They want to create chaos • They want to make money
Hackers: How Am I Vulnerable? • Open Internet Connections • No Router or Firewall – Direct Connection • Weak Passwords • Unsecured WIFI • Open Shares • Open Ports • Especially RDC/Terminal Services! • Email Servers
Hackers: What Can I Do? • Knowing is half the battle! • Methods are always changing: Be Vigilant • Get a router • Set a stronger password • Password protect important or sensitive data • Get help! • Close open ports • Setup routers • Etc…
Viruses & ETDS • Most are developed by hackers • Anti-Virus programs are good, but can’t always help you • It’s fairly easy to protect yourself, as long as you know what to do: • BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU CLICK ON! • Make sure you can trust websites you are visiting • If they are “trying too hard” to get a click – don’t do it • Don’t trust official-looking anti-virus warnings • Be aware of your AV brand • If it’s asking for money, be VERY careful • Just because it says “Microsoft, doesn’t mean it’s legit” (or Adobe, etc…) • Viruses can’t run unless you give permission or access
Routers & Firewalls • Any router is better than nothing • Almost any router will provide basic protection from most attacks • Router VS Firewall • Router is usually simply a device for connecting computers and sharing internet and network resources • Most routers have at least some firewall functionality built in • A firewall is a must more advanced version of a router which actively inspects network and internet traffic for potential problems • Routers and Firewalls cannot always protect from viruses • Some firewalls can inspect files for malicious content • Must always be updated and relevant for current attacks • Hackers use viruses (especially Trojans) to get access thru firewalls • Most Important – routers/firewalls manage ports and traffic
Servers & Passwords • Check servers for open ports • RDC 3389; Email 110, 25; FTP 21, Telnet 23 • Check for unused or unknown Admin accounts • Know what all accounts are for – remove others • Check all accounts for remote access • Double-Lock policy for sensitive programs or resources • Set multiple authentication points • Use different passwords! • Test for vulnerabilities (you may need help with this (continued…)
Servers & Passwords (…continued) • Establish an organization wide password policy • Ensure strong password for anyone who has access to critical or sensitive data • Seven characters or more • Upper & Lower case letters • Numbers & letters • Special characters • Random as possible • Change passwords often
Privacy & HIPPAA Compliance • Disclaimer • Concerns • Patient records on mobile devices • Unauthorized access to privileged servers or workstations • Be careful of others standing too close – may be able to read sensitive patient data • Theft of devices or other hardware with data stored locally • Tips • Passwords! Or use biometric authentication • Consider encrypting Storage Devices • Thoroughly destroy residual data on old hardware after upgrades, etc
