Tidbits

A news item from SANS today.  Those of you running Sun Java JRE may want to ensure you are removing old versions upon upgrading, as any Java applet can go ahead and request what version of JRE it wants, making your upgrade effort for naught.  The diary entry includes links to install/uninstall instructions.

Also over at SecurityFocus there is an interview with Bill Cheswick, who started the Internet Mapping Project which eventually evolved into software for mapping corporate and government networks.  It’s a very good read, touching on firewalling, logging, NIDS, IPS, how to fight DDOS attacks, and the future of BGP/DNS.

I will be upgrading to Wordpress 2.1 sometime Wed or Thurs, as I mentioned in yesterday’s entry.
