CISSP Client-Based Systems – Bk1D3T5St1

A Client-Based Systems in this the distributed processing environment establishes and uses a client-server relationship across a communications infrastructure. Traditionally, client-server systems implement the application as a standalone program on the client, while newer client-server applications leverage a common browser, and the application is developed within that context. Both approaches remain in widespread use, but evaluating the security posture of applications in either environment requires different skills and techniques. In a traditional Client-Based Systems system, …

Understand the Importance of Network Forensics

Leave a Comment / CHFI / By

Understand the Importance of Network Forensics in this this article Network Forensics is the implementation of sniffing, recording, acquisition, and analysis of network traffic and event logs to investigate a network security incident. Capturing network traffic over a network is simple in theory, but relatively complex in practice due to many inherent reasons such as the large amount of data flow and complex nature of Internet protocols. Recording network traffic involves a lot of resources. …
