- Tech Tip: Prevent hacker probing: Block bad ICMP messages
- By Mike MullinsWhile most network administrators do a fairlygood job of filtering TCP and UDP traffic, many forget to filterInternet Control Message Protocol ICMP traffic. ICMP traffic isnecessary for troubleshooting TCP/IP and for managing its flow andproper function. However, ICMP is also dangerous. Hackers can useit to map and attack...

- Transitioning the Public Internet to Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)
- IPv6 was developed to improve on its predecessor protocol, addressing many of the limitations that became apparent as the Internet grew. However, to generate improvements a completely new protocol that was not backwards-compatible with the existing IPv4 specification was required. This created a technological hurdle that few have been willing...

- Dynamic Model Checking of C Cryptographic Protocol Implementations
- This paper describes the Dolev-Yao C DYC cryptographic protocol message API. In addition to generating executable protocol implementations, DYC can be used to generate constraints on an attacker against the protocol. The resulting constraints can be handed to a constraint solver, which if successful will find an executable attack against...
