Rethinking Network Security

HEADNOTE

Perimeter security is no longer good enough. Network security must be built in, not bolted on.

After a year of rapid-fire worms and trojans, increasingly buggy software, overwhelming spam and widespread power

failures, what are the prospects for network availability and security in 2004? And more importantly, what steps are necessary for things to improve?

2003: The Year We Should Have Done Better

According to Fred Avolio, president of Avolio Consulting, 2003 seems to be the year we should have done better. "The major problem was virus-borne trojans, for goodness' sake. We know how to deal with those," said Avolio.

The 2003 CSI/FBI Computer Crime Survey found that virus attacks were by far the most common security incident, experienced by 82 percent of those surveyed. The most common vector for attack continues to be Internet connections, the culprit in 78 percent of these cases.
