Firewall Education Series
Firewalls
A machine connected to the Internet
that isn't behind a firewall is a disaster
waiting to happen. And you won't have to wait long. A recent study by the Internet Storm Center has shown that unpatched Windows
computers only lasted 20 minutes before
they were infected by some malware. If you're running Linux, you're going to have more time, but something bad is bound to happen.
The most likely outcome of being out there unprotected is a denial of service attack. Script kiddies are not picky about whose machine
they knock off line. If fact, most of these young cyber hoodlums don't even know how they're able to do it. They just know that the cute
toys they download will do it. If you don't want to have your box at the mercy of some anti-social kid who bathes much less frequently than you,
it's time to install GreenX |
