"The most dangerous vulnerability of any network
is an uneducated sense of false security."

Network Security Community

Don't let a sense of false security blind you to the important issues of internet security and securing your valuable network resources.

Network security is an important subject that many small to mid-size businesses overlook. Simple problems such as configuring a router access-list or building a basic firewall can greatly improve your chances of avoiding system compromises.

This site is not intended to be an end-all, be-all security alert archive. Instead, we aim to provide the basics to advance your network security awareness. This site aims to guide you through beginner pc security, intermediate network protection, and also offer a peer environment for finding advanced help to address tougher security issues such as repairing system compromises, or develop advanced techniques for stopping DOS attacks and potentially crippling viruses and worms.

Network security is important for everyone to be aware of. Many of the threats that exist on the internet today are many times magnified because business or personal small network administrators simply ignore the threat of compromise, and script kiddies or more serious attackers can use these systems to forward attacks anonymously on to other victims.

Stop the cycle now. Let the chain of false security end with you.
