Anti Hacking Tools
Douglas Chick
 Hacking isn't what it use to be in the days when networks were breached
by young hackers sitting in their bedrooms late at night trying out their
newly learned skill from a BBS board. Today's hacking is carried out by
preprogrammed viruses that, self propagate themselves around the world and
trying every computer port and over-flow that will have them. Finding the
right tools for you and your company can be an endless search on the
Internet that can produce the results of software from no name companies
with no proven record. Software sales people will boast that their software
is the best on the market, but you can't trust a sales person to tell you
the truth. So you must either rely on your own product research or the names
the software vendor gives you from satisfied companies.
Listed below are some Anti-hacking
software that I've put together that I think can be relied on, for your home
or office protection, and even a couple you can put on your mothers
computer.

is ippl?
ippl is a daemon which logs IP packets sent to a computer. It runs in the
background, and displays information about the incoming packets.Criteria can
be used to specify what packets should be logged and what packets should be
ignored.

been done, SecureHost prevents the attack from occurring in the first place.

based on corporate policy. When any of the rules for proper application
behavior are violated, SecureHost stops the activity before any damage is
done.
