Internet Security

Protocols and services must be kept secure


To ensure privacy of information
To discourage the spread of malicious software

Internet Protocols and Services





Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
Secure HTTP (S-HTTP) and Hypertext
Transfer Protocol Secure (HTTPS)
File Transfer Protocol (FTP)
Network File System (NFS)
Samba and Server Message Block (SMB)
Guide to Operating System Security
4
HTTP


TCP/IP-compatible application protocoltransports information over the Web
Most recent version: HTTP/1.1




Increases reliability of communications
Enables caching
Can send message responses before full control
information from a request is received
Permits multiple communications over a single
connection
Guide to Operating System Security
5
S-HTTP and HTTPS


Forms of HTTP used for more secure
communications
S-HTTP


Standards-based protocol that enables use of a variety of
security measures (including CMS and MOSS)
HTTPS


Essentially proprietary, but more compatible with
encryption for IP-level communications
Uses SSL as a subprotocol
Guide to Operating System Security
6
File Transfer Protocol (FTP)





TCP/IP protocol that transfers files in bulk data
streams
Uses two TCP ports (20 and 21)
Supports transmission of binary or ASCII
formatted files
Commonly used on the Internet
Downloading files can be risky

Network File System (NFS)





Designed for UNIX/Linux systems for file
sharing
Connection-oriented protocol that runs within
TCP
Uses remote procedure calls via TCP port 111
Sends data in record streams
For security, let only authorized computers use
NFS on host computer
