In-Depth in the News - "Protecting
Your Children from Cyber-Criminals with
Keylogger Software" (As reported
on Fox 7 News in May)
One Austin father wants other parents to
use the same technology Cyber-crooks use
to protect their children. Cyber-criminals
use keylogger software to steal passwords
and other vital information by capturing
every keystroke you make.
Cris DeWitt with In Depth Security says
parents should use it to monitor what their
children are doing online. He uses one at
home. It sends him a daily report and shows
what Web sites his children visited, how
long they were there, what the kids are
typing, and when they log on and log off.
And the good news, for parents that is,
is the software is hidden and hard to detect.
Two products recommended by Cris DeWitt
and In Depth Security include Netnanny and
EBlaster. To learn more about these products,
visit
www.netnanny.com and www.eblaster.com.

Free THAWTE Notary Services - In-Depth
Security is now a member of the Thawte Web
of Trust and Cris DeWitt, CISSP, is our
Thawte WOT Notary. As a result, we can now
assert your identity within the Thawte
Freemail WOT. So what's this "Thawte
Web of Trust" thing? The thawte Web
of Trust (WOT) is a Certification system
that allows your identity to be validated
for use in your Personal Certificate. These
free personal certificates (X.509) allow
you to sign and encrypt your email communications
and/or to identify you to servers that require
users to provide identification via X.509
digital certificates. The Thawte WOT is
an X.509 Certifying Authority (CA) modeled
after Phil Zimmermann's "Web of Trust"
concept (1980 - PGP) which replaces the
centralized ("top down") PKI system
with a network of trust statements made
by individuals about one another.
For more information or to request us
to notarize your ID for your Thawte Freemail
Certificate, please email us at notary@indepthsec.com

In-Depth featured on Fox 7 News
- As reported by multiple news services,
keylogger use is on the rise, with millions
of dollars at stake in stolen money and
ties to organized crime. On Monday, February
27, 2006, FOX 7 News came to In-depth Security
for expertise on how to prevent keyloggers
from exploiting your computer and potentially
stealing your passwords. The discussion
also included how to prevent an attacker
from getting ANY type of illicit software
installed on your system.
Most corporations have, or should have,
gateway firewalls that filter potentially
harmful attachments from email, Internet
downloads and virus traffic from various
network protocols, providing an adequate
safety net for their employees. However,
when these employees go home and turn on
their home systems, they are usually much
less protected. Therefore, it is imperative
that every computer user know the necessary
steps to keep their computer and personal
information protected. The number 1 way
to prevent being a victim is to educate
yourself on computer security. You don’t
have to become an expert, just a well-informed
computer user. Most modern attacks are attacking
you personally through social engineering
mechanisms, where you actually have to “do”
something (open the email attachment, click
the link, accept the download, etc.). Security
software cannot detect ALL of these behaviors,
so you need to be able to detect potentially
illicit behaviors as well. Also, keep your
system current on operating system patches,
anti-virus definitions, anti-spyware definitions
and use an email service that filters for
viruses and spam. Call us today at 512-263-8240
for details about classes we provide on
information security problems and solutions.

Sarbanes-Oxley
and Payment Card Industry Management Tool
Developed - Identity theft and credit
card fraud has become very big business. Recently,
US government security agencies disbanded
an online 4,000- member organized crime syndicate
for trafficking in stolen credit cards, goods,
and falsified documents . Other heavily publicized
incidents related to hacking, theft or loss
of confidential personal information demonstrates
the potential for significant financial losses
and a negative impact on consumer confidence.
These include:
- Bank of America's loss of approximately
1.2 million government charge card holder
account files in December of 2004 .
- As reported in May of 2005, Harvard University
Credit Union lost approximately 700 credit
card accounts, which included CEO Eugene
Foley's information that resulted in a personal
loss to him of over $2000.00 .
- Polo Ralph Lauren's loss by theft of approximately
180,000 card holder's account information
in April of 2005
Considering the large number of credit
card transactions that occur daily, face
to face and electronically, the risk of
financial loss is high. To reduce this risk,
credit card companies like Visa, MasterCard
and American Express, have instituted information
security standards (CISP - Cardholder Information
Security Program, AMEX Data Security Requirements)
that companies must adhere to in order to
maintain good standing with the credit card
companies and to avoid fines or even loss
of service. Combine these requirements with
the stringent Sarbanes-Oxley governmental
regulations, and companies must expend significant
effort to meet these multiple requirements.
To help demystify this myriad of requirements,
In-Depth Security has developed a tool that
maps the control objectives from Sarbanes-Oxley
with those of Visa/MasterCard and American
Express. Click here
for a preview of this valuable too. Order
your copy of this tool in its entirety by
contacting our sales department at 512.263.8240.
