    - How do you guys handle security in NT4 domain?? I already posted this in another NG. Sry. No1 replied thats why I posted here. I'm new at posting, I'll remember next time to post in multiple ngs the right way.... Hello, Just started looking at this ng. I was wondering in an NT4 domain , do you guys rely on group policies only for security at the workstations? about three yrs ago our company final thought it might be a good idea to implement security for the night shift users. I went through setting up group policies for the night shift. I restricted their logins to run only 3 company programs and removed all the unnecessary stuff such as regedit, run, etc. It "seemed" like group policies were enough, however i found out its easy to get to DOS prompt, other programs,network neighborhood, and local drives. In addition to group policies, i had to change NTFS permissions on various exe's and dll's to further "lockdown" the NT4 workstations. I was just wondering if any1 else does the same thing. Just in case any1 wants to know, here's our setup : NT4 Domain 90% of local workstations are NT4 SP6a (not all are patched. However, all test machines where fully patched.) 1 pdc, 2BDC SP6a patched. 95% of user profiles are mandatory. thanks for any replies --willc Tag: http://www.windows-patch.info/ Tag: 50478

    - security downloads Hello, Every time I turn on my computer and access the Internet, there are more security downloads. Is there a way that I can download these without incurring Internet charges? I pay by the hour, and lately I'm using a lot of hours trying to download the security stuff (and the downloads are not always installed correctly for some reason). Also, if I'm not sitting at my computer, the Internet access logs out automatically after about 20 minutes of no use. What happens to the download information? Does it all get lost? I have logged back in a couple of times, and then after I thought everything downloaded, I got messages that the information was downloaded but not installed. What does that mean and how do I fix it? I am beginning to wonder why I got a new computer with Windows XP Home Edition. I never had any issues with my Windows 98. Thank you for your attention to this. Please let me know how to download information with correct installation, and please let me know if it can be done without constant Internet access. Tag: http://www.windows-patch.info/ Tag: 50467

My system has been degraded and I am no longer able to access the internet from that PC (WIN 98 see post under 98 internet & security) Subsequently I have received 5 emails from Microsoft and Yahoo has identified them as infected with a virus. Virus "W32.Swen.A@mm" found. I still am down and I am concerned about how to fix the problem. Does anyone know about this problem? Barry Tag: http://www.windows-patch.info/ Tag: 50464

    - DNS permissions? We've noticed security permissions assigned to each entry in the DNS database, as well as each subnet. Could anyone explain why these permissions are there? My guess is that it allows you to restrict lower level admins from making changes to critical DNS entries. Does this make sense? Thanks in advance. Tag: http://www.windows-patch.info/ Tag: 50457

    - metrics for security I would to start a discussion to take the security progress metrics beyond theoretical and into the practical, realistic and usable to measure progress and relative security. I've had a couple of brainstorm sessions and given it some thought, but for the criteria to become useful, I think there should be an active community discussion that asks hard questions and refines the criteria to an accepted set. If we achieve that, we may even enable some good independant apples-to-apples analysis. I've given some thoughts to the criteria and I think: . The criteria should be measurable and distinguishable . The methodology should be repeatable by objective 3rd-parties . The criteria should support real world scenarios . The criteria should be useful for business decisions . The criteria should support measuring version over version improvements . The criteria should support competitive comparisons My strawman proposal for security criteria has the following high level areas: assurance, security quality, protective capabilities, manageability & automation, security update tools and security update policies. I have also added one other category based upon previous feedback on the strawman. My examples below in each category are not meant to be comprehensive, but just a good starting point for the discussions. Assurance is an area that experienced security professionals will recognize. In the days of the NSA's Trusted Computer Systems Evaluation Criteria, different assurance levels were tied to different features sets. The Common Criteria, in use today introduced a more flexible model that has separated assurance levels from the feature set - EAL4, for example stands for evaluation assurance level 4. So, in the assurance area, I can think of several measurable sub-criteria: 3rd-party certifications, source integrity protections, established change control processes, quality assurance processes, and penetration testing. Security Quality is the term I have begun using for things like vulnerabilities that are found in code. In this category, I can think of several sub-criteria: number of vulnerabilities fixed, number of public vulnerabilities unfixed, average time to fix a publicly-reported vulnerability, number of open listening ports, and number of listening services or daemons. Protective Capabilities are the capabilities that might protect the software from attack even in the presence of a vulnerability. Sub-criteria include: port firewall capabilities, antivirus/worm capabilities, strong authentication, behavior monitoring, backup, and security policy enforcement features. Manageability & Automation is a category to capture software technologies designed to make mistakes less likely to decrease security and the less expertise is required to deploy and manage a product with low security risk. Sub-criteria would include: security configuration wizards/tools, lockdown tools, vulnerability assessment capabilities, security reporting capabilities, and central security management capabilities. Security Update Packages & Tools are a complementary part of measuring security until either security quality or protective capabilities reach 100% effectiveness. Sub-criteria should include: automatic update capabilities, patch approval capability for enterprise updates, patch deployment tool, uninstall capabilities, re-compile requirements, reboot requirements, size of packages, and works with 3rd-party deployment tools. Security Update Policies is an interesting one that I think there should be a lot of discussion about. Sub-criteria for this are would include: security lifecycle time period of products, patches all publicly disclosed issues, issues security advisories, follows responsible disclosure, offers mitigation guidance, patch test quality criteria, and patches all versions/languages at the same time. If I am the responsible administrator deploying and managing a dynamic web farm, for example, these criteria might be strong considerations when selecting my software components. Workload Required Security Features is one I have added based upon feedback I received when I published an earlier strawman in the Microsoft Security Newsletter. The work to flush this out still needs to be done, but the idea is as follows. What security features are necessary to lock down the security for _any_ OS deployment? What security features would be necessary for a secure deployment of a dynamic web server in a particular business scenario? A database server? For a given scenario, we would work to identify features like identification & authentication, # of biometrics supported, remote encrypted connectivity, comprehensive security auditing, etc, that would be useful decision making critiria. If security metrics is an area you care about, then comment on these high level categories. Are they too narrow, too broad? If/once we get some refinement on the high level criteria, we can split off some individual threads for each category and try to flush out a list of criteria.

    - Why is XP listening on these ports? I have just installed XP Pro + SP1 out of the box onto a new machine, starting with a full disk format. The machine has no network card or modem yet, so it has had no opportunity to talk to the outside world. I have made no attempt to configure any services, and have not installed any other software (not even the Feb 2004 Security Update CD). So I am a little mystified as to why netstat -an reports the following: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TCP: 0.0.0.0, listening on ports 135, 445, 1025 and 5000. UDP: 0.0.0.0, ports 135, 445, 500, 1026 127.0.0.1, ports 123, 1028, 1900 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What's going on here? -- Ian Tag: http://www.windows-patch.info/ Tag: 50450

Norton did detect and delete a virus called download.tagdoor and something called crypt.win32 was detected in my comp. memory but it could not do anything about it. I tried turning system restore off, restarting in safemode,running scans,etc. Nothing shows up anymore in the antivirus scan but my computer has been taken over by these ads called timeclock,tramadol,sell future payments and another telling me that i am surfing porn and need to be protected. Adware does not detect anothing either. Please...I am not that computer savvy what can i do? I also now have firewalls installed and all the latest patches etc...I want my computer back!

    - WE NEED TO STOP SPYWARE!!! I use the internet alot, and i get way to much spyware. I hate it and I hate all those people who make it, we need to stop spyware, I think it is rediculious how we can get no privacy and no control on this, this is what is killing computers, such a great invention. Its funny because, we pay so much for a computer and we can't use it with out being traced or invaded, we really need to have something done, we need to form some kind of organization to get rid of this nasty thing for good, I think, we need to unite and fight this thing. I have spyware and ad removers, I do, they work like crap, I have like 6 of them, of coarse they help, they work well but not good enough, we need to have something done. Im thinking that if we don't use Kazaa and those kinds of spyware programs, we can go to other programs that are spyware free like shareazaa(if correct spelling). Other programs as well that use it, should not be used anymore. I think microsoft is partially responsible for this fiasco as well, they build great software and allow companies to invade our computers and we cannot control this, it is actually the biggest load of B.S. ever. I am angered greatly since I do web design and design programs and I have to deal with all this junk. I can't take it and I know people who do have it, don't like it. I am calling out to people who read this to help do something. We all need it. Another thing that amazes me as well, that some companies make money off of our information that they take with out my or anyones permission, they take everything of ours and can control browser settings, make icons on your computer, practically hijacking your computer and you have no control. This is all I have to say to the big company Microsoft, you make such good software, then defend it and protect your investment. We pay darn good money for this and others play us like they're our puppet master, we can't do anything, so next time you make another Internet Explorer, defend your product and help us, you started a legacy and now its turned into a disgusting show. I can barely use it now, I have to go to other browsers that are not popular or really connected to IE, like Real One Player Browser and Netscape. Finishing this message off, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING, SO PLEASE HELP US!!

Now here is where it gets wierd - tried to go to their website - page cannot be displayed error message comes up. Any link to Computer Assoc. will not come up and this was the same problem I had with the Symantec sites. Is something loaded with these programs blocking my access to these sites?

Is is still the case for 04-011 I mean does the new ASN.1 vulnerability only have a potential impact on a system if msasn1.dll is present?

This happenend with the following 3 of 5 installs. The other two seemed to go okay. I'm on Windows XP Pro on a Dell Latitude C840 that I've tried to keep totally up to date. I've got Norton Internet Security 2003 fully inplemented with all updates and updated virus files. Thanks for any suggestions, Gary No Updates Were Installed The following items failed to install. To try installing them again, click Review and install updates, and then click Install Now again.
