- Network like a Pro. If you were to treat your home network like a corporate server farm, what tools and hardware would it entail to treat your home network like a security professional? What do we need for a firewall and what are the detection/prevention technologies that we could be implementing?
- Beyond Firewall and an IDS/IPS, what do I need? I've started listening to Security Weekly, starting with last December, and at one point the suggested a secondary IDS, behind the firewall, to record what the primary defenses missed. Where and how do I set that up? Beyond firewall and IDS, what other tools should I be running, where should they be in my network, and how many physical boxes are we talking? Emphasis should be on low power devices and free as in beer tools.
- Now That Your Security is in Place, How to Read Logs and Formulate a Response to an Intrusion. What I've learned from SW, is that you can't prevent an intrusion, it's how to respond when you are compromised. Again, according to SW, the security manager's job is to detect intrusions, inside 48 hours rather than 48 months. How can you protect your proprietary data and customer database?
