  3. General Study Help • I'm looking for understanding • What infrastructure technologies are (names) • What infrastructure technologies do (purpose) • What are the security issues (secure) • Slides only give overview • Read wikipedia and 24x7 chapters for more understanding • Ask me questions via email for better understanding • Study together if you need help

  4. General Study Help • I'm NOT looking for memorization • You don't need to know ports • you can always look these up • RFCs are useful for understanding, but the numbers are not important • Knowing some history will be useful and help answer questions, but no need to memorize dates

  5. NTP & Syslog • Understand NTP Stratums • Stratum 0 is the clock source, etc • Why is clock synchronization important • Use Wikipedia for additional understanding • Syslog • Know about facilities and wildcards • Benefits of logging • Know security vulnerabilities and mitigations

  6. SSH • SSH configuration & key authentication • password and key authentication • password vulnerabilities and mitigation • what the private key does • what file holds the public key (~/.ssh/authorized_keys) • what denyhosts does  • anatomy of the ssh/scp command

  7. DNS • DNS understanding will be most important • Understand zones and tree organization • root servers • Resource records • Question might ask what are some resorce records and what are they used for • Glue records • I want you to understand how these work • Understand how addresses are resolved • Slide graphic • Interpret a dig command • NXDOMAIN or NOERROR • ANSWER SECTION

  8. DNS • DNS security • What are the vulnerabilites • Why use DNSSEC • DNS is used with all other technologies in our lab • Understanding of how DNS works with... • Kerberos • SMTP • MX records

  9. Keberos and LDAP • Difference between authentication and authorization • PAM and PAM stacks • Kerberos process and components •  Client/Auth Server/Service Server •  Ticket granting process • LDAP • Directory stucture (you may need to develop one) • LDAP operations and what they do • LDAP "Usage" slide • What LDAP is used for and good at • What LDAP is not good at

  10. TLS and E-Mail • What does Trasport Layer Security do/provide • Understand Client/Server interaction (chart) • Uses PKI (asymmetric) first - needs CA's • Exchanges a symmetric session key • uses symmetric for speed  • E-mail - SMTP • MX records and mail server priorities • Know what the mail header shows  • MIME and what it is used for • Know security/spam issues and mitigation • security - use TLS • spam - blacklists, whitelists, and greylists

  11. SPF Evaluation • SPF • DNS - SPF records • mechanisms • modifiers • limitations - when it does not work

  12. Networked File Systems • Know what networked file systems are used for • NFS is a networked file system • NFS security issues • trusted client • RPC • Distributed file systems • How are they better than traditional networked file systems? • Clustered file systems • Different from distributed because they provide block level access (ie they look like a disk) • SANS • block level access to multiple servers  • provide fault protection (chart)
