NETWORK SECURITY

USING
FIREWALLS

Submitted By:-

Need of Security System
 Activity like Airline Ticketing, Rail way
Reservation, Banking etc. are going on –
line & can perform by inter connected
computer networks.

 Users are give private data.


 Need of a system to keep private data
secured on the network.
 Network security employs certain
hardware and software method to restrict
access to private data which is known as
Firewall.
 Firewall is a combination of hardware and
software that intercepts data between
internet and your computer .
 Firewall must authorize data or people to
pass into the network.
 Implement network access policy that data
are examined & evaluated.
 Establish a security perimeter that locking
both the incoming and outgoing data.
How Do Hackers Get Into Your Pc ?
 Logging on to Internet will assigned a unique
identification number called the Internet protocol
(IP) address by Internet service provider .
 To access the computer, hackers needs to get
IP address and scan computer for any open
ports, program to crack password.
 Security becomes primary concern for
organization to connect private network to
internet.
 Tools used for network security are Firewall,
cryptography, encryption, digital signature and
passwords.
Firewall System
 The firewall system can be a route, a pc, a
host or a collection of hosts setup specially
to shield a site from protocol and service
that can be abused from host outside the
network. It is located at a higher level
gateway such as a site connected to the
Internet.
What A Firewall Should Contain ?
 Support security policy.

 Simple in design, easy to understand and maintain.

 Contain advanced authorization measures.

 Able to accommodate new services.

 Employ filtering technique for services.

 Use proxy service for FTP.

 Able to accommodate public access to certain system on Internet.

 Contain mechanism for logging network traffic.


Firewall Operations

 Firewall implements security rules .

 Gives control over how people use the


network .
What It Protects ?
 Remote login:

Someone connect to your system can’t able to view


or access files that are actually running on computer

 Application backdoors:

Provides a backdoor or hidden access .


Denial of service
 Hackers send a request to the server to
connect to a system .
 The server responds with an
acknowledgement and establish a
session.
 Server with these unanswerable session
request, the hacker causes the server to
slow down or eventually a crash.
E –mail bombs

 Personal attack.

 Someone sends the same E –mail


hundred or thousands of times until your
E –mail system can’t accept any more
messages.
Macros

 Many applications allow to create a script of


command that the application can run.

 This script is known as macro.

 Hackers are create their own macros


depending on the application program which
can destroy your data or rash your computer.
Viruses

 A small program that can copy itself to


other computers.
 Spread itself quickly from one system to
the next system.
 Viruses are producing from harmless
message to erase all of your data.
 Firewall required to install Anti –viruses
software on each computer and protect as
long as accept E –mail.

 Simply block every thing and then begin to


select what type of traffic you will allow .
 Good rule for business and required
experienced network administrator to
understand needs and knows what traffic
to allow .

 Firewall stops anyone outside logging to a


computer in your private network .
How Firewall Works ?
 Widely used Technique is Application –level
firewalls .

 Special –purpose code is installed on the


gateway for each application .

 A small program specifically designed for


network security is known as proxy service.
 Users are permitted access to proxy service but
never permitted to log on into the Application –
level gateway.

 Application –level gateway allow information to


flow between systems but don’t allowed direct
exchange of packets.

 Application –level gateway is referred as a


“bastion host”

 The outside client wants to connect to
inside server protected by Application –
level gateway.
 Telnet proxy never allows remote user to
log or have direct access to internal
server.
 The outside client, Telnets to the bastion
host, which authorization the user.
 After user authorization the outside client
access the user interface of the Telnet
proxy.
 The outside user specifies the destination
host.
 Telnet proxy makes its connection inside
server and forwards commands to inside
server on behalf of outside client.
