ID spoofing mówiąc prosto jest to podszywanie się pod np. numer innego odbiorcy. Więcej można przeczytać na Wikipedii

W internecie jest mnóstwo serwisów pozwalających się podszyć pod innego odbiorcę. W Polsce spotkałem się do tej pory z jednym serwisem wykrecnumer.pl jednak serwis został zablokowany w listopadzie bieżącego roku.

Jeżeli chcesz kogoś zaskoczyć i zadzwonić z jego numeru, mam nadzieję że dałem Ci pomocną radę jak tego dokonać

Con queste diaboliche card, chiami qualcuno e sul suo display appare il numero di un altro.

Spie come noi. È il titolo di un articolo pubblicato sull’ultimo numero di Manhattan, rivista bimestrale di New York, uno dei tanti che sono stati scritti sul caso Ali Wise. Negli Stati Uniti se ne parla da giugno, da quando la trentenne newyorchese ex p.r. di Dolce & Gabbana è stata arrestata, con l’accusa di aver fatto ripetute telefonate fantasma ed essere entrata centinaia di volte nella segreteria telefonica della sua rivale in amore, Nina Freudenberger, per ascoltare i messaggi e cancellarne alcuni. Soprattutto quelli del suo ex, Josh Deutsch, fondatore della Downtown Records e attuale fidanzato della Freudenberger. La cosa sorprendente non è tanto l’accanimento con cui Ali Wise si è dedicata alla guerra virtuale contro l’ex e la fidanzata, né il fatto che rischia quattro anni di carcere per stalking, quanto che abbia potuto farlo grazie al semplice utilizzo di una card formato tessera. Una carta dall’aspetto innocuo e divertente, con un nome che ricorda l’onomatopea di un cartone animato, in vendita negli Stati Uniti da cinque anni e usata da 3 milioni di americani.

Da un mese, attraverso il sito internet è disponibile anche nel resto del mondo, Italia compresa. Si chiama spoof card e invita a «essere chi vuoi essere»: chiamando un numero gratuito ed inserendo un pin precedentemente acquistato con 10 dollari (sì, tutto qui), è possibile scegliere quale numero far comparire sul telefono di chi chiamate. Abracadabra: qualsiasi numero. Non solo: si ha anche l’opzione di modificare la propria voce in modo irriconoscibile o, anche, di farla sembrare quella di una persona del sesso opposto. Ogni conversazione, oltretutto, può essere registrata. «È perfettamente legale» spiega Meir Cohen, ventottenne di origine israeliana che cinque anni fa ha creato la spoof card assieme a Eli Finkelman, suo amico “hacker nato”. Quel che rischia di essere illegale è l’utilizzo che si decide di farne. Nel 2007 una ragazza americana ha scelto di usare la spoof card per ricomparire nella vita di una “vecchia amica” chiamandola sul cellulare nel cuore della notte, e facendole credere che un uomo le stesse telefonando da dentro casa, mentre la stava «guardando dormire ». Uno scherzo da film horror, e un reato. Come quel tale che, fingendosi un sequestratore, ha convinto la polizia a fare irruzione nell’abitazione dei presunti ostaggi, facendo apparire sul display il loro numero di casa. Oggi non si possono più usare i numeri di telefono di banche, istituzioni, forze dell’ordine: Cohen è stato costretto a bloccarne lo spoofing a tutela della sicurezza. Ma tutto il resto è ancora possibile.

Il problema è che con una spoof card in mano ti senti come un bambino davanti a un barattolo di marmellata: puoi usarla per proteggere la tua privacy, o infilare il dito dove non dovresti. Un piacere misto a senso di colpa, irresistibile. Perché è facile cedere alla tentazione di entrare nelle segreterie telefoniche americane non protette da password, cui puoi accedere chiamando il tuo destinatario con il suo stesso numero. Dopotutto lo ha fatto anche Kim Kardashian nel suo reality show Keeping up with the Kardashians, per controllare se il fidanzato di sua sorella stesse ricevendo telefonate da altre. Può andarti bene come a Paris (Hilton), che per fare i dispetti alla sua amica Lindsay (Loan) ha ascoltato ed eliminato alcuni suoi messaggi vocali: una volta scoperta, le è stato semplicemente sospeso il servizio. Ma può anche andarti male, visto che è inequivocabilmente reato, soprattutto se ti fai prendere la mano come è successo ad Ali Wise. Puoi chiamare una persona che non vuole parlarti, costringendola a risponderti perché le telefoni dal numero del suo datore di lavoro, o di sua moglie. Puoi chiamare la tua migliore amica con una voce femminile diversa, fingendo di essere l’amante del suo ragazzo, e farle prendere un colpo. Puoi perfino chiamare con il numero del tuo uomo la donna che temi sia la tua rivale, per vedere come ti risponde al telefono. Che risponda «amore» o no, sappi che comunque tu stai rischiando. Grosso.

Seed of Chucky (also known as Child’s Play 5: Seed Of Chucky, Child’s Play 5 or SOC) is a 2004 American horror film, which is the fifth entry in the popular Child’s Play series. Seed of Chucky follows the events of Bride of Chucky and stars Jennifer Tilly (who plays herself and also voices Tiffany), Billy Boyd (as the voice of Glen/Glenda), and Brad Dourif (as Chucky). The film features rapper Redman, director John Waters and S Club star Hannah Spearritt. It was written and directed by Don Mancini, who created Child’s Play and has written all sequels to date. With this entry, Mancini marked his directorial debut.

The film, shot in Romania, continues the series’ evolution from the pure-horror genre of the first movie to a hybrid horror-comedy. Besides spoofing other horror movies, the film references domestic dramas and tabloid television. This film also counts as the first film in the series to contain nudity.

Jennifer Tilly

Trivia:

• The script was originally offered to Universal in 1998, who turned it down. Focus Features (a division of Universal Studios) finally picked up the movie in 2003.
• Filmed on the largest soundstage in Romania and the second-largest soundstange in Europe where Cold Mountain (2003) was also shot.
• Because Focus Features has a reputation for yielding eloquent, “artsy” independent films, Rogue Pictures was created as an off-shoot to release this movie.
• Jennifer Tilly wanted to lose weight to play herself in the movie, but she and Don Mancini inserted “fat jokes” into the script in case she didn’t make it.
• The TV spots for this movie displays an unusual disclaimer: Britney Spears Does Not Appear In This Movie. This disclaimer was inserted into TV spots because Britney’s management was concerned that people might be lead to believe that Britney actually appears in the movie. It is not her in the movie; but a look-alike.
• The wife of the man Tiffany calls to apologize to is the widow of the cop she killed at the beginning of Bride of Chucky (1998).
• The gender confused child of Chucky and Tiffany is named either Glen or Glenda by his parents. Glen or Glenda (1953) was Edward D. Wood Jr.’s film in which Wood himself portrayed the transvestite known as Glen or Glenda.
• When the floor manager at the beginning of the film shouts “Hey, Tiffany’s left arm is loose again” and then the arm grabs his crotch, this is an in-joke as revealed on the DVD commentary for Bride of Chucky (1998). Jennifer Tilly explains that Chucky’s left arm kept grabbing her breasts during shoots.
• The First film to be made by Rogue Pictures.
• As revealed on the DVD’s commentary the directors and producer had difficulty agreeing on the look of Glen. The director wanted to give him his own look and style but the producer felt that he should have features similar to Chucky because after all Glen is his son. As a result Glen was given blue eyes, red hair, and freckles like Chucky. Glen’s blue eyes and red hair however are a different shade than Chucky’s.
• As revealed on the DVD commentary because of the low budget the crew were unable to shoot the much bigger Chucky vs Glen fight that was in the shooting script.
• Chris Sarandon was approached to reprise his role as Det. Mike Norris from the first film, but turned it down due to scheduling conflicts.

This information was provided to Vintage by Tina Pavlik, owner/operator of The Romance Studio. It’s important for all of us who utilize websites and/or blogs.

Good morning. As many of you are also aware, our very good friends at Coffee Time Romance and More were hacked last week. It was a very serious incident that required the entire site go down and they are still working around the clock to restore it. Coffee Time Romance and More has the full support of all of us here at TRS and we hope yours as well. Like you, we’re really looking forward to having them back.

BUT the incident isn’t an isolated one. Within the last week, another site that I help a client with — TRS/Psyche Designs doesn’t host the site — met the same fate. What the hackers are doing is new, there is nothing that can be done to prevent it. I won’t go into a lot of technical jargon but these incidents made me think that I really wanted to put some information out there to our community — anyone with a web site or blog even if it doesn’t pertain to romance.

In simple terms, the hackers find a way to get into your web site and then post their wares on it — usually links to sites where you can illegally purchase prescription drugs, porn sites, and other sites where more than likely, there is malware that can infect your computer if you click on the links. Chances are you won’t. That being said, they can also load malware onto your site so that when a visitor arrives to visit you, their computer will be infected with a trojan/virus etc. that can either damage their computer or give the hacker access to that computer remotely. These tactics can be used for many reasons including identity theft.

Add to that the fact that Google bots, the ones that normally crawl your site at regular intervals to index you for the Google search engine, are now looking for malware and if they find it on your site, they will report it to Google. It will also appear as a warning tied to your site on the Google search engine. If this happened to TRS for example, when people googled us, they would see The Romance Studio with the line under the title reading — “This site may harm your computer.” Once your site has been cleared of any malware, you can request for Google to review your site and have that message removed. But it’s still another time consuming process and in the meantime, new visitors are told that your site is harmful and chances are they won’t come back. Waiting for Google to review your site again can take days or weeks.

What can you do to help keep your site safe? Many of you work with good, reputable web hosting companies and they likely are aware of these things already. But if you maintain your own web site or blog, here are some things you should know and can do to help keep your site as safe as possible.

1) Check your site regularly. I know from visiting many author web sites each day in the running of TRS, I’ll see sites that haven’t been update for weeks or months — even when I am in the way of knowing that author has new books out. =) If you aren’t paying attention to your site, you have no way of knowing if someone is trying to get in. Pay attention in particular to any area where there is outside user content — forums, blogs, guestbooks, etc. These are what spammers want to use to post their ill intended junk. These are usually the scripts they can find a hole in to give them access to your entire site. I’ve seen people get hacked through guestbook scripts mostly but now they are really hitting on site blogs like WordPress and forums very hard.

2) Check your statistics regularly. I have some web clients who are so good at keeping an eye on their stats. This will often give you a warning that someone is looking at your site. Maybe they are really really interested in your books or product but often an abnormal spike in hits can mean hackers are taking a very close look at your site and considering how they may use it. If you see such a spike, keep a close eye on your site and maybe consider changing your passwords. If someone manages your site, let them know immediately.

3) If you use a script on your site like WordPress or any type of web forum or guestbook, please check at least once a week for updates to the script. This is extremely important. Some updates are made because a vulnerability was discovered that a hacker can exploit. When updates come along, install them immediately.

4) Passwords. Even if you change your password often, please don’t make it easy for hackers by using a pet name with a number tacked on the end. Any hacker worth his salt can decode FLUFFY09 in less than a minute. A good password should be at least 8 characters long, should be a mix of upper and lower case letters, include numbers, and other symbols if allowed. I know people want to have passwords they can remember but in this day and age, simple passwords are a risk. Come up with a complex password (ex. Mh?>1h#ggAs) and simply write it down and keep this in a safe place. Change your passwords often. Don’t share your password with anyone not involved with the management of your site.

5) Check your site to see if Google has picked up malware. As a disclaimer, this isn’t to be used as a way to check your site at once quick and easy glance. If you submit your URL using the utility here, it will simply tell you if Google found anything suspicious on your site within the last 90 days. Check this periodically but don’t rely on it as a way to keep your site safe. If this utility tells you that your site has been reported for suspicious activity, you’ve already got a problem. http://blogoscoped.com/archive/2008-05-23-n62.html

6) Back up your site. Many hosting companies will tell you that you get backups. Sometimes it doesn’t mean a complete and full copy of your site that you can use to restore it if a hacker gets it. Sometimes it means an image you can look at. Often you CAN get a backup of your complete site from a hosting company but it will cost you extra — I’ve seen amounts from $50 – $100. You can take away this worry pretty easily by making a backup of your site on a regular basis. It doesn’t take long. If I can back up TRS using plain FTP in about an hour, and it’s a pretty large site, you might be able to back up your site in a matter of moments. Backing up your site once a week or once every other week can be a life saver. Also considering keeping a periodic copy on a disk. If you’re like me, bad things happen in groups. It would be my luck to have my site hacked and then my computer crash before I could restore it. Take no chances. Make sure you have a viable copy of your site at all times. The more up-to-date, the better.

7) Spam/Spoofing. I get a lot of email from folks interested in our web services asking what they can do about spam and wondering how they got an email from themselves that they didn’t send selling Viagra.

How do spammers get your email in the first place? They get them from your site. You’d think this would take a lot of effort but it takes actually very little effort. They use programs called spiders. The programs crawl sites looking for things like @ symbols and tags. They know there’s a good chance they’ll grab an email address from either of those instances. The program finds that and grabs your email. Your email then goes on the spammer’s list. Then it can be shared with other spammers but is often sold on lists to people marketing stuff you don’t want (or other spammers). So in a very short period of time, your email can be placed on literally thousands of spammer email lists. And you’re right to worry that may mean viruses and harmful things. Only it’s not just for your site and your email. What about your visitors? Which brings me to bad thing #2

Spoofing. What’s that? Well, once spammers have your email, they don’t just use it to send you hundreds of emails. They send out emails saying they are from YOU! They’ll send out thousands of emails in a single second peddling viagra and the email might say its from tina@tinapavlik.com. This is very easy to do. They don’t need access to your email or your web site. They just plug that email into their program as the “sent by” email. Maybe they’ll put in Tina Pavlik as the name or maybe not. That part doesn’t matter. What matters is that they are sending emails claiming to be you and there’s nothing you can do to stop them. They set things up so they can’t be easily traced or reported. That’s why they lie and use other people’s emails.

Once you’re being spoofed, people can report the spam that says its from you. Only ISPs won’t take the time to look into the matter to see if you really sent it. Some have automatic reporting systems that are rarely looked at by actual people. The end result? Enough people reporting these emails saying they are from you will get your domain black listed. Black listed means that if AOL black lists you because enough people at aol reported spam that you didn’t send but says it’s from you, they can keep anyone using AOL as a service or aol browsers from even being able to visit your site or receiving your emails. That’s bad. Very bad. And it can take months to get a site white listed again once this happens.

You want to have email without worry? I would suggest doing two things.

First, reconsider having a domain name email. I know that’s probably not what you want but if you get another email address (gmail, hotmail, etc), if someone spoofs it as I explained above, it won’t have an impact on your web site. They won’t black list gmail. TRS got rid of all of its @theromancestudio.com emails last year for this reason. Now if any of our gmail accounts get spoofed or reported? The worst thing that can happen is that we have to get a new email. But TRS itself, the site, won’t be reported. It’s safe. That’s not to say that spoofers can’t send out hacker@theromancestudio.com emails anyway and get us reported but we’ve found that these spoofing incidents dropped dramatically for us when we stopped using a domain name email.

I’d recommend a good free email account from gmail.com, yahoo.com, or hotmail.com. Gmail is my favorite. It’s free, offers limitless space, and has a pretty wonderful spam filter. It’s very user friendly.

Second, consider getting your email off the site if it is posted there. Does your current web host offer an email form you can place on your site? If so, that’s really the way to go. We use forms like this one at Psyche: http://psychedesigns.com/contact.php?firstname=Psyche&lastname=Designs and at TRS. Basically, the script hides the email from the spiders so they can’t grab it. Using a secure email form for your new email will start you off right. Since we went to this method, we maybe see 10-15 spam emails in a day. Still annoying but it’s a low number all things considered. And with gmail’s spam filter, you don’t have to sort through the spam to get to the emails you want — unless you want to. It’s still a good idea to eyeball it every couple of days.

Anyway, I hope you find some of this information useful. In the next few days, today we’ll be busy changing TRS over for October and we’re also scanning all of the sites we take care of in light of these events, we’ll be starting a new section of our forums dedicated to hacking issues. I’ll bet there are some of you out there with some other good information to offer and I think that sharing of these ideas helps keep us all a little safer.

Remember any of us can hacked at any time. Be vigilant. And let’s work together to help keep our sites — romance or otherwise — safe.

Thank you!

O Brasil está na segunda posição da lista mundial de países que geraram mais spam ou mensagens não desejadas durante o mês de agosto, com índice registrado de 12% nessas iniciativas. Essa é uma das conclusões do Relatório da Symantec sobre Spam publicado em setembro.

Segundo o levantamento, o spam representou mais de 87% de todo o correio eletrônico em nível mundial. Além do Brasil, Colômbia e Argentina, ambos com 2%, ficaram entre os dez primeiros lugares do ranking.

Entre as tendências identificadas pela Symantec durante o período está o fato de que as pequenas empresas, também afetadas pela crise econômica, experimentaram uma diminuição de gastos por parte dos consumidores e, em consequência, aumentaram a quantidade de promoções, especialmente durante as férias de inverno, festividades e mudanças de temporada, situação que foi aproveitada pelos spammers.

Além disso, os spammers estão encontrando novas maneiras de evitar os filtros. Uma delas é uma técnica conhecida como spoofing, que cria uma URL muito similar ao de uma marca ou empresa para que os usuários entrem no site e forneçam seus dados pessoais.

Outra forma dos spammers evitarem os filtros de spam é a utilização de palavras e expressos comuns, como saudações (“Olá” e “Como vai”) e notificações de erros (como “Mensagem Devolvida” e “Erro”).

Pada tugas Jaringan Komputer Lanjut kali ini saya akan membahas megenai Security Jaringan. Saya mengambil tema mengenai pelaku kejahatan pada sistem jaringan komputer dalam dunia maya atau bisa disebut dengan Cyber terorist.

PENDAHULUAN

Sebelum membahas lebih lanjut mengenai Cyber terorist, saya akan mengulas sedikit mengenai salah satu jenis pelaku cyber terorist yakni hackers dan crackers. Para hackers dan crackers juga dapat disebut dengan cyber terrorist, karena seringkali kegiatan yang mereka lakukan di dunia maya (Internet) dapat menteror serta menimbulkan kerugian yang besar terhadap korban yang menjadi targetnya, mirip seperti layaknya aksi terorisme. Keduanya mengeksploitasi dunia maya (internet) untuk kepentingannya masing-masing. Mungkin perbedaan tipis antara cyber terrorist dan hackers hanyalah pada motivasi dan tujuannya saja, dimana motivasi dari para cyber terrorist adalah untuk kepentingan politik kelompok tertentu dengan tujuan memperlihatkan eksistensinya di panggung politik dunia. Sementara motivasi para hackers atau crackers adalah untuk memperlihatkan eksistensinya atau adu kepintaran untuk menunjukan superiotasnya di dunia maya dengan tujuan kepuasan tersendiri atau demi uang.

Secara umum pengertian cyber terrorism adalah “suatu bentuk kegiatan terencana yang termotivasi secara politis yang berupa serangan terhadap informasi, sistim komputer, program komputer dan data sehingga mengakibatkan kerugian besar serta jatuhnya korban tak berdosa yang dilakukan oleh satu kelompok grup atau perorangan.”

CYBER TERRORIST DALAM SISTIM JARINGAN KOMPUTER

Berdasarkan hasil riset dan survey serta berbagai laporan tentang kejahatan komputer yang terjadi dewasa ini, diketahui bahwa saat ini tidak ada satupun jaringan komputer yang dapat diasumsikan 100% persen aman dari serangan virus komputer, spam, email bom dan sebagainya dari para hackers dan cyber terrorist. Seorang hacker atau cyber terrorist yang sudah berpengalaman dapat dengan mudah melakukan ‘breaks-in’ atau memasuki sistim jaringan komputer yang menjadi targetnya. Tidak perduli apakah didalam jaringan tersebut sudah mempunyai sistem pengamannya atau belum. Hal tersebut diperparah lagi dengan kenyataan bahwa banyak sekali situs-situs bawah tanah (underground sites) dalam Internet yang menawarkan informasi serta pengetahuan tentang bagaimana menembus sebuah sistim jaringan komputer (penetrated) sekaligus mengelabui sistem pengamanannya (security compromised). Informasi-informasi tersebut tersedia dalam bentuk kumpulan program, dokumentasi atau utiliti. Sehingga semakin memudahkan para cyber terrorist untuk melaksanakan niatnya terhadap target yang telah ditentukannya. Dengan memanfaatkan sistim informasi yang tersedia tersebut para cyberterrorist dapat menyampaikan “pesannya (messages)” ke seluruh dunia dengan cepat.

METODE / CARA KERJA CYBER TERORIST

Beberapa metode atau cara kerja yang sering digunakan para cyber terrorist dan hackers antara lain:

• Spoofing, yaitu sebuah bentuk kegiatan pemalsuan dimana seorang hacker atau cyber terrorist memalsukan (to masquerade) identitas seorang user hingga dia berhasil secara ilegal logon atau login kedalam satu jaringan komputer seolah-olah seperti user yang asli.

• Scanner, merupakan sebuah program yang secara otomatis akan mendeteksi kelemahan (security weaknesses) sebuah komputer di jaringan komputer lokal (local host) ataupun jaringan komputer dengan lokasi berjauhan (remote host). Sehingga dengan menggunakan program ini maka seorang hacker yang mungkin secara phisik berada di Inggris dapat dengan mudah menemukan security weaknesses pada sebuah server di Amerika atau dibelahan dunia lainnya.

• Sniffer, adalah kata lain dari Network Analyser yang berfungsi sebagai alat untuk memonitor jaringan komputer. Alat ini dapat dioperasikan hampir pada seluruh tipe protokol komunikasi data, seperti: Ethernet, TCP/IP, IPX dan lainnya.

• Password Cracker, adalah sebuah program yang dapat membuka enkripsi sebuah password atau sebaliknya malah dapat mematikan sistim pengamanan password itu sendiri.

• Destructive Devices, merupakan sekumpulan program-program virus yang dibuat khusus untuk melakukan penghancuran data-data, diantaranya Trojan horse, Worms, Email Bombs, Nukes dan lainnya.

SISTEM PENGAMANAN TERHADAP JARINGAN KOMPUTER

Setelah kita ketahui bersama bahwa semakin merajalelanya kejahatan di dunia maya baik yang dilakukan oleh para hacker ataupun crackers. Maka kita memerlukan suatu sistem pengamanan terhadap jaringan komputer. Alasannya adalah karena pada dasarnya kita semua menginginkan privasi, keamanan dan perasaan aman dalam hidup, termasuk dalam penggunaan jaringan komputer dan Internet. Kita mengharapkan hasil pekerjaan kita aman dan jauh dari kemungkinan dicuri, di copy atau dihapus. Kita juga menginginkan keamanan pada waktu saling berkirim email (electronic mail) tanpa khawatir ada pihak yang tidak bertanggung jawab (malicious users) membaca, merubah atau menghapus isi berita email tersebut.

Ada beberapa langkah dapat digunakan untuk memproteksi atau meningkatkan kemampuan proteksi sistim jaringan komputer, antara lain :

• merumuskan dan membuat sebuah kebijakan tentang sistim pengamanan yang handal (comprehensive security policy) serta menjelaskan kepada para pengguna tentang hak dan kewajiban mereka dalam menggunakan sistim jaringan komputer.

• Langkah selanjutnya, melakukan konsultasi dengan para pakar pengamanan sistim komputer untuk mendapatkan masukan yang professional tentang bagaimana meningkatkan kemampuan sistim pengamanan jaringan computer yang dimiliki. Melakukan instalasi versi terbaru dari Software atau utility juga dapat membantu memecahkan permasalahan pengamanan jaringan komputer. Selain itu, mempekerjakan seorang sistim administrator jaringan yang telah berpengalaman akan dapat mengelola secara professional dan aman sistim jaringan computer tersebut.

• Kemudian selalu menggunakan mekanisme sistim otentifikasi terbaru dalam jaringan (advanced authentication mechanism) dan selalu gunakan teknik enkripsi dalam setiap melakukan transfer data atau komunikasi data.

• Yang tidak kalah pentingnya adalah menginstalasi sistim Firewall pada jaringan komputer untuk melindungi proxy server dari ancaman para cyber terrorist.

PERALATAN PENANGKAL CYBER TERRORISM

Network Manager atau System Administrator tentu memerlukan berbagai peralatan (tools) untuk membantu mengamankan jaringan komputernya. Beberapa tools bahkan memang dibuat khusus dalam rangka melakukan testing sistim jaringan untuk mengetahui kekuatan dan kelemahan dari sebuah sistim jaringan komputer. Tools tersebut antara lain:

• SATAN (Security Administrator’s Tool for Analysing Network), peralatan yang dibutuhkan untuk melakukan analisa sistim jaringan komputer secara menyeluruh sehingga performance sekaligus titik kelemahan dari jaringan komputer tersebut dapat diketahui.

• TCP Wrapper untuk memonitor jaringan komputer (trafficking) terutama dalam hal lalu lintas paket data dalam jaringan yang menggunakan protokol TCP/IP (internet protocol) sehingga paket data yang lewat dapat dipantau dengan baik.

• Crack untuk melakukan password security testing dimana manfaatnya untuk mengetahui kelemahan dari password para pengguna, karena tidak semua pengguna tahu cara membuat password yang aman. Bahkan ada yang tidak menggunakannya sama sekali!

• Firewall, adalah sebuah sistim proteksi untuk melaksanakan pengawasan lalu lintas paket data yang menuju atau meninggalkan sebuah jaringan komputer. Sehingga paket data yang telah diperiksa dapat diterima atau ditolak bahkan dimodifikasi terlebih dahulu sebelum memasuki atau meninggalkan jaringan tersebut.

KESIMPULAN

Dari pembahasan diatas dapat disimpulkan bahwa Security Jaringan Komputer perlu untuk ditingkatkan lagi keamanannya agar para pelaku Kejahatan Komputer atau Cyber Terorist tidak bisa berbuat seenaknya terhadap sitem Jaringan Komputer karena dapat merugikan orang lain.
