Large scale DDos attacks have been underway against Kyrgyzstan Internet service providers (ISPs) for several days. This further establishes the emergence of the ‘Cyber Iron-Curtain’ as shown in the schematic diagram above. For examples, the key national web server site Asiainfo.kg and the Kyrgyzstan official domain registration service Domain.kg have only been available intermittently from Jan 18th 09. We are able to confirm the ‘usual suspects’ of well known organized cybercrime servers have been involved, (see Part 2 for details). Although upstream providers in Russia and Kazakhstan have ironically been stating they are refusing to pass traffic because of the scale of the attacks.

For the third time in two years, Russian computer hackers (and cyber crime gangs) have shut down Internet service in a neighboring country that had offended the Russian government. Back in 2007, it was Estonia. Last year it was Georgia (whose leader had regularly insulted Russian leader Vladimir Putin, often in a very personal way.) This year it's Kyrgyzstan, which is resisting Russian attempts to control world access to Kyrgyzstan's oil and natural gas fields.

The overall aim of the passed security analysis was to evaluate the BlackBerry Enterprise Solution against well-accepted principles of the IT security community. Fraunhofer Institute SIT testifies the solution’s compliance with state-of-the-art security, provided the published configuration of the solution is used according to Fraunhofer recommendations. Among these recommendations is that companies should change the standard BlackBerry smartphone encryption setting to use AES encryption, and modify the server setup. Adhering to Fraunhofer configuration provides strong protection against known attack methods. It results in a loss of some management features, but does not reduce core functionality.

another free WAF product on IIS called Webknight and found it to be easy to config and full of nice features. The default configuration file is reasonably tight. In most cases, you would probably want to loosen things up so Webknight won't break your site with false positives. It inspects SQL injection in header, cookies, URL and in POST data. The detection is based on hitting two of the preset SQL keywords. For most cases, this generally works well. It may render false positives with some more complex textarea field that expect various text. Overall, Webknight is a good WAF that can fulfill basic protection needs.
