February 15 at the Software Engineering Institute Pittsburgh, PA Who should attend? * practitioners (UNIX system and network administrators) who need to build and maintain trustworthy networked systems. * UNIX system programmers * practitioners who evaluate or initiate Internet connectivity This one-day seminar teaches practical strategies and techniques to combat the threat of intrusions and improve the security of operating systems connected to the Internet. Participants typically have at least one thing in common: the need, the desire, and the organizational mandate to provide trustworthy network services. They also typically share a lack of understanding of the issues related to network security and do not know how to protect their systems from the level of threat that exists on the Internet today. The seminar will cover fundamental security practices for UNIX system administration. Participants will learn about the latest information on security problems, defensive strategies, offensive strategies, network security, and establishing appropriate site security policy. After completing the seminar, participants will be able to establish and maintain a secure Internet site that allows the benefits of connectivity to the Internet while protecting the organization's data. Participants will also gain familiarity with tools that assist them in securing their systems. Seminar topics include: * latest information on security problems * UNIX system security * network security * site security policies REGISTRATION ------------ RETURN TO --------- SEI Events Software Engineering Institute Carnegie Mellon University Pittsburgh, PA 15213-3890 FAX: 412 / 268-7401 Internet: registration@sei.cmu.edu REGISTRATION INQUIRES --------------------- To inquire about registration, payment, or logistics, contact-- Registration Phone: 412 / 268-7388 Internet: registration@sei.cmu.edu COURSE INQUIRES --------------- To inquire about the course, contact-- Customer Relations Phone: 412 / 268-5800 Internet: customer-relations@sei.cmu.edu TERMS ----- The SEI will only accept registrations that are accompanied by payment or an acceptable authorization form.
