 What’s In

You need to understand computer and network security. Failure to implement

proper security procedures can affect users, computers, and the general public.
Private information, company secrets, financial data, computer equipment, and items
about national security are placed at risk if proper security procedures are not
followed

What’s New

Computer and network security help keep data and equipment safe by giving
only the appropriate people access. Everyone in an organization should give high
priority to security, because everyone can be affected by a breach in security.
An attack that intentionally degrades the performance of a computer or
network can also harm an organization’s productivity. Poorly implemented security
measures that allow unauthorized access to wireless network devices demonstrate
that physical connectivity is not necessary for security breaches by intruders.

Security Attacks

To successfully protect computers and the network, a technician must understand

both of the following types of threats to computer security

 Physical:
Events or attacks that steal, damage, or destroy such ---
equipment as servers, switches, and wiring.
 Data:
Events or attacks that remove, corrupt, deny access to, allow access
to, or steal information.
Threats to security can come from inside or outside an organization, and the level
of potential damage can vary greatly. Potential threats include the following:

 Internal: Employees who have access to data, equipment, and the

network. Internal attacks can be characterized as follows:
o Malicious threats are when an employee intends to cause damage.
o Accidental threats are when the user damages data or equipment
unintentionally.
 External: Users outside an organization who do not have authorized
access to the network or resources. External attacks can be characterized as
follows:
o Unstructured attacks, which use available resources, such as
passwords or scripts, to gain access to and run programs designed
to vandalize.
o Structured attacks, which use code to access operating systems
and software.
Physical loss or damage to equipment can be expensive, and data loss can be
detrimental to your business and reputation. Threats against data are constantly
changing as attackers find new ways to gain entry and commit their crimes.

securoty.html
Viruses, Worms, and Trojan Horses

A virus is attached to small pieces of computer code, software, or document. The

virus executes when the software is run on a computer. If the virus spreads to other
computers, those computers could continue to spread the virus. A virus is transferred
to another computer through e-mail, file transfers, and instant messaging. The virus
hides by attaching itself to a file on the computer. When the file is accessed, the
virus executes and infects the computer. A virus has the potential to corrupt or even
delete files on your

A worm is a self-replicating program that is harmful to networks. A worm uses the

network to duplicate its code to the hosts on a network, often without any user
intervention.
A Trojan horse technically is a worm. It does not need to be attached to other
software. Instead, a Trojan threat is hidden in software that appears to do one thing,
and yet behind the scenes it does another.

9
Security Procedures
Regular testing provides details of any possible weaknesses in the current
security plan that should be addressed. A network has multiple layers of security,
including physical, wireless, and data.

Figure 4. Most Commonly Known Anti-Virus Software

Virus protection software, also known as antivirus software, is software designed to

detect, disable, and remove viruses, worms, and Trojans before they infect a
computer. Many organizations establish a written security policy stating that
employees are not permitted to install any software that is not provided by the
company.
Enabling Windows 7 Firewall

1. Open Windows Firewall by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Control
Panel. In the search box, type firewall, and then click Windows Firewall.
2. In the left pane, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off. If you're prompted for an
administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Turn Windows Firewall on or off link in Windows Firewall.
3. Click Turn on Windows Firewall under each network location that you want to help
protect, and then click OK.

If you want the firewall to prevent all programs from communicating, including
programs that you have previously allowed to communicate through the firewall,
select the Block all incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed
programs check box

Data Encryption
10
 Encrypting data involves using codes and ciphers. Data encryption can help
prevent attackers from monitoring or recording traffic between resources and
computers. A virtual private network (VPN) is an encryption system that protects
data as though it resides on a private network.

Port Protection
Every communication using TCP/IP is associated with a port number.
HTTPS, for instance, by default uses port 443. A firewall is a way of protecting a
computer from intrusion through the ports.
With port protection, the user can control the type of data sent to a
computer by selecting which ports will be open and which will be secured. Data
being transported on a network is called traffic.
How to Enable Firewall for Windows XP?

1. Click Start Button then choose Control Panel

2. Click the Network and Internet Connections option.
3. Then click the Network Connections option.
4. Double click the icon labeled “Local Area Connection”. The icon may have
a number after it, for example “Local Area Connection 5” Click on
Properties button.
5. On the “Advance “ tab select “Protect my computer and network by limiting
or preventing access to this computer from the Internet.
6. Click Settings, then on the ICMP tab select “Allow incoming echo request”.
Enabling Windows 7 Firewall

1. Open Windows Firewall by clicking the Start button, and then click Control
Panel. In the search box, type firewall, and then click Windows Firewall.
2. In the left pane, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off. If you're prompted
for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or
provide confirmation. Turn Windows Firewall on or off link in Windows
Firewall.
3. Click Turn on Windows Firewall under each network location that you want
to help protect, and then click OK.

If you want the firewall to prevent all programs from communicating, including
programs that you have previously allowed to communicate through the firewall,
select the Block all incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed
programs check box.

11
Wireless Security Techniques
Traffic flows through radio waves in wireless networks, so it is easy for
attackers to monitor and attack data without having to connect to a network
physically.
When installing wireless services, you should apply the following wireless
security techniques immediately to prevent unwanted access to the network:

o Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) was the first-generation security standard for
wireless network. Attackers quickly discovered that 64-bit WEP encryption
was easy to break
o Change the default administration password.
o Disable the broadcasting of the Service Set Identifier (SSID) to hide it from
other users
o Use MAC filtering to protect the network from other users.
o Change the default values of the SSID by entering the setup program for the
access point and renaming the SSID.
o Update to the latest available firmware.
o Install or activate a firewall, and adjust the settings to eliminate all traffic
except the desired network settings.
o Update to the latest available firmware.
o Install or activate a firewall, and adjust the settings to eliminate all traffic
except the desired network settings.
An attacker can access data as it travels over the radio signal. However, you can
use a wireless encryption system to encode data and thereby prevent unwanted
capture and use of the data. The following list describes the different levels of
wireless security, from most secure to least secure.

 Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol (LEAP): Also called EAP-

Cisco, LEAP is a wireless security protocol created by Cisco to address the
weaknesses in WEP and WPA
 Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA): An improved version of WEP. It was created
as a temporary solution until 802.11i (a security layer for wireless systems)
was fully implemented
 WEP 128: An enhanced encryption protocol combining a 104-bit key and a
24-bit initialization vector.
 WEP 64: The first-generation security standard for wireless network.
 No security: Although you can elect to implement no security whatsoever,
you leave your wireless network completely vulnerable to attack.

 What’s In

File Sharing is sharing of or offering access to digital information or resources,

including documents, multimedia (audio/video), graphics, computer programs,
images and e-books. It is the private or public distribution of data or resources in a
network with different levels of sharing privileges

What’s New

You have already leraned from the past lesson about computer network and
security. Now you are going to learn how to share files using a computer and a
printer.
File sharing can be done using several methods. The most common method
techniques include the following:

 Removable storage devices

 Centralized file hosting server installations on networks
 World Wide Web-oriented hyperlinked documents
 Distributed peer-to-peer networks

Printer Sharing

One of the primary reasons that networks were developed was to allow
groups of computer users to share peripheral devices such as printer. Sharing a
single printer among a group of users costs much less than buying a printer for each
computer.

Setting up printer sharing is simple with Windows XP. The following steps
enable a computer to share a printer:

Step 1. Choose Start > Printers and Faxes.

Step 2. Right-click the printer, and choose Properties.
Step 3. Click the Sharing tab.
Step 4. Click the Share this printer radio button.
Step 5. Keep or change the share name.
Step 6. Click Apply.

 What Is It

Common hazards encounter by computer technicians and users

A hazard is a situation in the workplace that has the potential to harm the
health and safety of people or to damage plant and equipment. The situation could
involve a task , chemical or equipment used. Hazard management is a continuous
process that can be used to improve the health and safety of all workplaces.
Physical Hazards

One of the most common physical hazards involving computer technicians is

cables running across the floor. If someone trips ,falls, and hurts himself because
because of a cable you can across the floor, someone(you, your employer, or your
customer) has a serious leagal negligence problem. If you need to temporarily run a
cable across the floor, place a danger sign similar to those “wet floor” signs used by
cleaning services.
Mechanical Hazards

When working on electric equipment, ask yourself “ is there anyway this

equipment could hurt me?”. You might stick your hand in a computer and suddenly
the paper feed arm moves, feeding, but a piece of your finger too.

29
Safety precautions when using a ladder:

1. Read the labels on the ladder, and follow any safety instructions
written on it.
2. Never stand on the top rung of the ladder. You could easily lose your
balance and fall.
3. Make sure that people in the area know you will be working there.
4. Cordon off the area with caution tape or safety cones.
5. When you are using a ladder that leans up against a wall, follow the
instructions written on the ladder, and have someone hold the ladder
to help keep it steady.
Occupational Health and Safety is planned system of working to prevent illness
and injury where you work by recognizing and identifying hazards and risks.
Occupational Health and Safety is also referring to the policies, procedures and
activities that aim to protect the health safety and welfare of a people at the
workplace.
Occupational Health and Safety standards Each student has a responsibility to
their colleagues and their organization to report and act upon any potential
workplace hazard. Students need to be aware of the type
of hazards that are possibly present in their work environment .
Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a planned system of working to prevent
illness and injury where you work by recognizing and identifying hazards and risks.
Health and safety procedure is the responsibility of all

persons in the computer and technology industries. You must identify the hazards
where you are working and decide how dangerous they are. Eliminate the hazard or
modify the risk that it presents.

Procedure

1. Identify the hazard.

2. Clear the area close to the hazard.

3. Partition the hazard off or clearly identify the area to protect other people from
harm.

4. If the hazard can be easily and safely cleared, then do so. If not…
5. Report the hazard to the appropriate person (such as teacher in charge, principal
etc.) to obtain assistance.

6. After clearing the hazard, fill out the correct documentation to assist in identifying
improved practice to reduce further incidence of hazards

30
All hazards must be reported using an Accidental Report form. This enables us to
track the kinds of hazards we have in our workplace, and take action when
necessary to make it safer for all student and clients.

 What Is It

GUIDELINES FOR TESTING CONFIGURED COMPUTER SYSTEM AND

NETWORK

Testing Your Computer Network

You've set up all your network switches, plugged in all the cables, and configured all
your computers. One task remains before you can declare your network is finished:
You must verify that the network works as expected. Here are a few simple tests you
can conduct to make sure your network is functional:

 Check the physical connections. Check that the Link light — the little red
or green light next to the RJ-45 port — is lit on every computer. You must
check this light both on the computer itself and on the switch or router the
computer is plugged into. If this light is not on, you have a connection
problem — most likely a bad cable.
 Verify that you can log in. When you're sure the physical connections are
good, you should attempt to log in to each of your network computers using a
valid domain user account.

38
  Check the network configuration. Click the Start button, type cmd and
press Enter. Then, enter the command ipconfig /all and press Enter. This
command will spit out numerous lines of information. The line you're looking
for should resemble this: IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.125
(Preferred) If this part of the output does not show a valid IP address, you
need to check that your IP configuration is set correctly and that your DHCP
server is working.
 Verify that the computers can ping each other. Another basic test you
should perform is to use the ping command from a command prompt to make
sure that the computers on your network can contact one another. Do several
ping tests. First, make sure that TCP/IP is up and running by having the
computer try to ping itself. Open a command prompt and type ping local host.
The output from this command will indicate whether or not the ping was
successful. Next, try to ping your servers by name. For example, if your file
server is named FileServer01, use the command ping File Server
