Recognizing Trouble When It Happens
Network administrators, engineers, and security professionals need to be able to recognize
when an attack is under way, or when one is about to take place. It may seem as
though recognizing an attack as it is happening should be easily accomplished. This is
only true for the very ???noisy??? attacks or overwhelming attacks, as in denial-of-service
(DoS) attacks. Many attackers fly under the radar and go unnoticed by security devices
and staff members. It is important to know how different types of attacks take place so
they can be properly recognized and stopped.

PART I
Security issues and compromises are not going to go away anytime soon. People who
work in corporate positions that touch security in any way should not try to ignore it or
treat security as though it is an island unto itself. The bad guys know that to hurt an
enemy is to take out what that victim depends upon most. Today the world is only
becoming more dependent upon technology, not less. Though application development
and network and system configuration and maintenance are complex, security is
only going to become more entwined with them.
