SECURE YOURSELF

Black Ice Defender

This is a very user-friendly comprehensive firewall program. I highly recommend it to both advance and novice users. It has a simple graphical interface that is easy to understand and pleasing to the eye.It detects your attacker, stops their attack and or scan and gives you as much information available on the “attacker.”
You can download Black Ice Defender at: http://www.networkice.com



Lockdown 2000

I also recommend Lockdown 2000 as a security measure.Lockdown2000 has a very nice graphical interface to it also and is user friendly. It does the same thing Black Ice Defender does but also runs scans on your system for Trojans. It monitors your registry and system files for changes that occur. Then gives you the option of either undoing all the changes or allowing it.
You can obtain a copy of Lockdown2000 from:http://www.lockdown2000.com



What do you do now that you know that someone is attempting to hack into your computer?Before you can do anything you will require some utilities. I recommend getting the following program.

• NetLab

Netlab has a variety of utilities combined into one easy to use application.

socks

socks is an IP encapsulation technique that permits TCP connections to use a proxy server to complete a connection. It permits users to conveniently use Internet services across a gateway without being aware that a gateway is being crossed. socksd is frequently used to turn a Unix workstation that has a Internet connection as well as an internal company network connection into a firewall system. As a result, SATAN’s scan of target firewall systems will frequently indicate the presence of a socksd. While no vulnerabilities are currently known to exist in socksd, if properly configured, SATAN’s discovery of socksd can indicate that the system is not just a host connected to the Internet, but a firewall.
If your firewall configuration supports a socks server, you must have socksified clients to take advantage of this service. (An HP-UX–specific socks includes a socksify program that enables you to convert binary versions of network programs.)
