This "surveillance monster" includes, among other things, cameras monitoring public spaces, proposals for databases filled with personal information on U.S. citizens, and anti-terrorist legislation allowing the government to demand that libraries turn over reading histories of their patrons. Yet the report asserts that these monsters don't even have to be real for them to be terrifying: "It is not just the reality of government surveillance that chills free expression and the freedom that Americans enjoy. The same negative effects come when we are constantly forced to wonder whether we might be under observation."

Proponents of such RFID tags, which store, send and receive data through weak radio signals, believe they will one day replace bar codes and revolutionize the way that inventories are tracked and consumer products are designed once their price falls far enough.

Smith] ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2003 09:23:09 -0700 From: "NewsScan" Subject: Junked hard drives yield lots of personal data MIT graduate students Simson Garfinkel and Abhi Shelat bought 158 hard drives at second hand computer stores and eBay over a two-year period, and found that more than half of those that were functional contained recoverable files, most of which contained "significant personal information." The data included medical correspondence, love letters, pornography and 5,000 credit card numbers. The investigation calls into question PC users' assumptions when they donate or junk old computers -- 51 of the 129 working drives had been reformatted, and 19 of those still contained recoverable data. The only surefire way to erase a hard drive is to "squeeze" it -- writing over the old information with new data, preferably several times -- but few people go to the trouble. The findings of the study will be published in the IEEE Security & Privacy journal Friday.

They were able to obtain unlimited cash from the machine (some 135,000 pounds) by typing in random PIN numbers. An issue not included in all the reports was that the family allegedly contacted the building society to report the error (this was reported in the print edition of the Metro, a free newspaper supplied on the UKs public transport infrastructure). Only when the society failed to take action did the family begin exploiting the error. The risk here (assuming the family did indeed report the fault) would be the failure of the society to implement remedial action when notified of a problem, perhaps due to a lack of procedure for handling such information. This is quite apart from the clearly inadequate testing of the software added to the cash machine in the first place. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2003 11:40:15 -0800 (PST) From: Pete Carah Subject: Exchange/Outlook being "helpful" I don't know if this has been covered before, but I have a correspondence going with someone who uses Exchange for his mail. I have a procmail filter that files mail containing an html tag (the opening html identifier, not just any html tag) in a box labelled spam, which I then peruse about weekly. (and just discards any containing both an html and script tag...) 1;0cHe complains that I don't answer him timely, and that he has configured his mailer to not send html. This appears to be the case; his messages to me are not put in html form. The zinger here, is that my quoted message in his reply is in html form, identified as "converted from text/plain", (in the DTD line, I found the conversion having been done by the exchange server) "We're Microsoft, and we're here to help you"... I don't know if he can suppress that one, either; perhaps by not quoting my incoming message (which should be edited anyhow; I don't like postquotes since they tend to grow uncontrollably). ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2003 10:50:47 -0500 (EST) From: Yakov Shkolnikov Subject: Equifax "security" I sometimes wonder why some sites use 128 bit encryption. For example: I just ordered my credit report from Equifax (www.equifax.com). When I completed the order, it sent me to the order confirmation page with my username and password as clear text in the URL. The next day I get a e-mail confirming my order with my password in plain text. RISKS are obvious. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 9 Jan 2003 22:47:12 -0500 From: "monty solomon" Subject: Lexmark DMCA lawsuit temporary restraining order Lexmark lawsuit seeks to defend intellectual property rights while preserving customers' rights to choose As a result of a Lexmark International, Inc. lawsuit against Static Control Components, Inc., for violation of the Copyright Act and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the federal district court in Lexington, Ky., issued a temporary order - agreed to by Static Control - requiring Static Control to immediately cease making, selling, or otherwise trafficking in the "Smartek(TM)" microchip for the toner cartridges developed for the Lexmark T520/522 and T620/622 laser printers. The order is in effect until Lexmark's motion for a preliminary injunction is heard by the Court. Lexmark's complaint alleges that the Smartek(TM) microchips incorporate infringing copies of Lexmark's copyrighted software and are being sold by Static Control to defeat Lexmark's technological controls, thereby allowing the unauthorized access to Lexmark's protected software programs and the unauthorized remanufacturing of Lexmark "Prebate(TM)" toner cartridges.

The preface states that the book is concerned with broad principles of systems development, and so does not cover specialized topics such as code authentication and sandboxing. It also points out that software vendors are effectively exempt from liability, and so have no reason to produce secure or reliable software. Chapter one is an introduction to software security, with an overview of related topics and considerations. Managing software security risks, in chapter two, looks at good practices in the system development life cycle, the position of the security engineer in development, and standards. The authors point out problems in common security "solutions," mostly dealing with authentication, in chapter three. The common myths about the security of open and closed source systems are examined in chapter four. Instead of a checklist of thousands of security items (that likely won't be of much use anyway), chapter five presents ten guiding principles which will probably catch most problems. The list is not a panacea: the first principle is to secure the weakest link, and it takes lots of forethought to design this for type of factor in advance. Auditing software, in chapter six, is more about security assessments being conducted at various stages in the process, for example, using attack trees at the design stage. The preface states that the book is divided into two parts, conceptual and implementation, and, although there is no formal division, this is probably the beginning of part two. Chapter seven looks at buffers overflows, always and still the most common software security problem. This book, it must be assumed, is written primarily for a programming audience, and yet the first part has presented concepts very clearly without necessarily getting into code examples. At this point, however, the material is definitely written for advanced C (and specifically UNIX) programmers, and the basic concepts are sometimes hidden in the details. Access control, primarily in UNIX systems, although with some mention of special capabilities in Windows NT, is the topic of chapter eight. Chapter nine deals with race conditions, including the familiar "time of check versus time of use" problem, although most of the material is limited to file access concerns. There is an excellent and thorough discussion of pseudo random number generation in chapter ten. Applying cryptography, in chapter eleven, stresses the fact that you shouldn't "roll your own," helps out by reviewing publicly available cryptographic code libraries, and even examines the drawbacks of one-time pads. Managing trust and input validation, in chapter twelve, emphasizes input concerns to the point that an important element is possibly buried: in the modern environment, you not only have to trust the goodwill of an entity, but also its ability to defend itself, so as not to become part of an attack against you. Password authentication, in chapter thirteen, promotes randomly chosen passwords. Given a work directed at programming I suppose this is understandable, but recent research has shown that "well chosen" passwords are as easy to remember as naive, and as secure as random. Chapter fourteen is an overview of the basic aspects of database security, although it only touches on the more advanced topics of this specialized field. Client-side security concentrates on copy protection and other anti-piracy measures in chapter fifteen. Some means of establishing a connection through a firewall are examined in chapter sixteen. While I can understand and sympathize with the desire to give examples of specific code in dealing with implementation details, there are a number of major concepts covered in the latter part of the book which would have been more accessible to non-programmers had they been dealt with as tutorially as in the first part. Still, the book has a great deal to teach programmers about security and reliability, and security professionals about the requirements of the development process. copyright Robert M.

As well as solid conceptual background of cryptography and authentication, there is overview coverage of specific security implementations, including Kerberos, PEM (Privacy Enhanced Mail), PGP (Pretty Good Privacy), IPsec, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), and a variety of proprietary systems. Where many security texts use only UNIX examples, this one gives tips on Lotus Notes, NetWare, and Windows NT. Chapter one is an introduction, with a brief primer on networking, some reasonable content on malware, and basic security models and concepts. Part one deals with cryptography. The foundational concepts are covered in chapter one. Symmetric encryption, in chapter three, is presented in terms of the operations of DES (Data Encryption Standard), IDEA (International Data Encryption Algorithm), and AES. Chapter four details the major modes of DES. The algorithms for a number of hash functions and message digests are described in chapter five. Asymmetric algorithms, such as RSA (Rivest-Shamir-Adleman) and Diffie-Hellman, are explained in chapter six, although one could wish for just slightly more material, such as actual numeric computations, that might reach a wider audience. The number theory basis of much of modern encryption is provided as well, in chapter seven. More, including a tiny bit on elliptic curves, is given in chapter eight. Part two covers authentication. The general problems are outlined in chapter nine. Chapter ten looks at the traditional means of authenticating people: something you know, have, or are. Various problems in handshaking are reviewed in chapter eleven. Chapter twelve describes some strong protocols for passwords. Part three examines a number of security standards. Kerberos gets two whole chapters, since we are provided with not only concepts but actual packets: version 4 in thirteen and 5 in fourteen. PKI (Public Key Infrastructure) terms, components, and mechanisms are outlined in chapter fifteen. The basic problems in real-time communications security are delineated in chapter sixteen. Chapter seventeen examines the authentication and encryption aspects of IPsec, while chapter eighteen deals with key exchange packets. SSL and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are described in chapter nineteen. Part four concentrates on electronic mail. Chapter twenty lays out the major concerns and problems. Chapter twenty one discusses PEM and S/MIME (Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions). PGP is covered in chapter twenty two. Part five contains miscellaneous topics. Chapter twenty three looks at firewalls, twenty four at a variety of specific security systems, and twenty five at Web issues. Folklore, in chapter twenty six, briefly lists a number of simple "best practices" that aren't generally part of formal security literature. The explanations are thorough and well written, with a humour that illuminates the material rather than obscuring it. The organization of the book may be a bit odd at times (the explanation of number theory comes only after the discussion of encryption that it supports), but generally makes sense. (It is, sometimes, evident that later text has created chapters that are slightly out of place.) The end of chapter "homework" problems are well thought out, and much better than the usual reading completion test. If there is a major weakness in the book, it is that the level of detail seems to vary arbitrarily, and readers may find this frustrating. Overall, though, this work provides a solid introduction and reference for network security related topics and technologies. copyright Robert M.

The authors, therefore, are well aware that data security becomes more complex with each passing week. This is, after all, the second edition of what was originally published under the title "Web Security and Commerce," and, while it is still recognizable as such, the work is essentially completely re- written. The authors note, in the Preface, that the book cannot hope to cover all aspects of Web security, and therefore they concentrate on those topics that are absolutely central to the concept, and/or not widely available elsewhere. Works on related issues are suggested both at the beginning and end of the book. A greatly expanded part one introduces the topic, and the various factors involved in Web security. Chapter one is a very brief overview of Web security considerations and requirements, with some material on general security concepts and risk analysis. The underlying architecture of the Web is examined in chapter two, although this is basically limited to Internet structures. (While the material is quite informative, perhaps some examples of HTTP [HyperText Transfer Protocol] would add value.) Cryptography is explained reasonably well in chapter three: there is no in-depth discussion of cryptographic algorithms, but these details can be readily found in other works. Chapter four deals with cryptographic uses, and also with legal restrictions. The concepts and limitations of SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) are given in chapter five, although the operational details are not covered. Chapter six starts out with a general discussion of identification and authentication,but then gets bogged down in the details of using PGP (Pretty Good Privacy). The coverage of digital certificates, in chapter seven, is likewise constricted by a dependence upon system technicalities. Part two concerns the user. Chapter two looks at the various possible problems with browsers, not all of which are related to Web page programming. Chapter eight looks analytically at the possible invasions of privacy that can occur on the Web. Some non-technical techniques of protecting your privacy, such as good password choice, are described in chapter nine, with various technical means listed in chapter ten. Chapter eleven reviews backups and some physical protection systems. ActiveX and the limitations of authentication certificates, as well as plugins and Visual Basic, are thoroughly explored in chapter twelve. Java security is only marginally understood by many "experts," and not at all by users, so the coverage in chapter thirteen is careful to point out the difference between safety, security, and the kind of security risks that can occur even if the sandbox *is* secure. Part three details technical aspects of securing Web servers. Chapter fourteen looks at physical security and disaster recovery measures. Traditional host security weaknesses are reviewed in chapter fifteen. Rules for secure CGI (Common Gateway Interface) and API (Application Programmer Interface) programming are promulgated in chapter sixteen, along with tips for various languages. More details on the server- side use of SSL is given in chapter seventeen. Chapter eighteen looks at specific strengthening measures for Web servers. You legal options for prosecuting a computer crime is reviewed in chapter nineteen. Commercial and societal concerns in regard to content are major areas in Web security, so part six reviews a number of topics related to commerce, as well as other social factors. Chapter twenty discusses a number of technical access control technologies, by system. Obtaining a client-side certificate is described in chapter twenty one. Microsoft's Authenticode system is reviewed yet again in chapter twenty two. Censorship and site blocking are carefully examined in chapter twenty three. Privacy policies, systems, and legislation are reviewed in chapter twenty four. Chapter twenty five looks at current non-cash payment systems, and the various existing, and proposed, digital payment systems for online commerce. Having already studied criminal problems earlier, the book now turns to civil and intellectual property issues, such as copyright, in chapter twenty six. Although it has almost nothing to do with Web security as such, I very much enjoyed Appendix A, Garfinkel's recounting of the lessons learned in setting up a small ISP (Internet Service Provider). (I suppose that this could be considered valid coverage of Web commerce.) The other appendices are more directly related to the topic, including the SSL protocol, the PICS (Platform for Internet Content Selection) specification, and references. Although the material has been valuably expanded and updated, some of the new content is less worthwhile. The extensive space given to specific products will probably date quickly, although the surrounding conceptual text will continue to provide helpful guidance. Certainly for anyone dealing with Web servers or running ISPs, this is a reference to consider seriously. copyright Robert M.
