Samba 4 (2. Auflg.)
Das Handbuch für Administratoren in aktualisierter 2. Auflage. Aktuell zu Samba 4.14.Dieses Buch gibt Ihnen eine umfangreiche Anleitung für die Einrichtung und den Betrieb einer Samba-4-Umgebung.Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf der Verwendung von Samba 4 als Active Directory-Domaincontroller. Dabei werden alle Schritte zu deren Verwaltung beschrieben bis hin zur Behebung eines Ausfalls von Domaincontrollern.Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt ist die Verwaltung von Fileservern in einer Netzwerkumgebung, sei es als einzelner Server oder als Cluster. Bei der Einrichtung des Clusters wird dabei komplett auf Open-Source-Software gesetzt. Auch die Einbindung von Clients – von Windows, Linux und (neu) macOS – kommt nicht zu kurz. Zudem wird die neue Möglichkeit der GPOs für Linux-Clients erklärt. Die Einrichtung von zwei DHCP-Servern für die ausfallsichere DDNS-Umgebung wird mit allen Schritten und Skripten beschrieben.Gerade als Linux-Administrator ist man es gewohnt, alles möglichst über Skripte auf der Kommandozeile durchführen zu können. Deshalb gibt es zu diesem Bereich ein eigenes Kapitel.Auch die Durchführung der Migration von Samba 3 auf Samba 4 oder von einem Windows Active Directory auf ein Samba 4 Active Directory wird ausführlich erläutert. Das Buch ist somit eine gute Grundlage für Einsteiger und erfahrene Administratoren.Aus dem Inhalt:Installation aus verschiedenen Repositories und DistributionenEinrichten und Testen von DomaincontrollernBenutzerverwaltungGrundlagen zu GruppenrichtlinienEinrichtung servergespeicherter Profile und Ordnerumleitung via GPOsEinrichtung von RODC (Read Only Domain Controller)Ausfallsichere DDNS-InfrastrukturFileserver in der DomäneFreigaben einrichten und verwaltenEinrichtung des VirusfiltersClients in der DomäneCluster mit CTDB und GlusterFSSchemaerweiterungEinrichten von VertrauensstellungenMigrationSamba 4 als PrintserverHilfe zur FehlersucheInstallation mit Ansible Leseprobe (PDF-Link)

Cybersecurity and Third-Party Risk
MOVE BEYOND THE CHECKLIST AND FULLY PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THIRD-PARTY CYBERSECURITY RISKOver the last decade, there have been hundreds of big-name organizations in every sector that have experienced a public breach due to a vendor. While the media tends to focus on high-profile breaches like those that hit Target in 2013 and Equifax in 2017, 2020 has ushered in a huge wave of cybersecurity attacks, a near 800% increase in cyberattack activity as millions of workers shifted to working remotely in the wake of a global pandemic.The 2020 SolarWinds supply-chain attack illustrates that lasting impact of this dramatic increase in cyberattacks. Using a technique known as Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), a sophisticated hacker leveraged APT to steal information from multiple organizations from Microsoft to the Department of Homeland Security not by attacking targets directly, but by attacking a trusted partner or vendor. In addition to exposing third-party risk vulnerabilities for other hackers to exploit, the damage from this one attack alone will continue for years, and there are no signs that cyber breaches are slowing.Cybersecurity and Third-Party Risk delivers proven, active, and predictive risk reduction strategies and tactics designed to keep you and your organization safe. Cybersecurity and IT expert and author Gregory Rasner shows you how to transform third-party risk from an exercise in checklist completion to a proactive and effective process of risk mitigation.* Understand the basics of third-party risk management* Conduct due diligence on third parties connected to your network* Keep your data and sensitive information current and reliable* Incorporate third-party data requirements for offshoring, fourth-party hosting, and data security arrangements into your vendor contracts* Learn valuable lessons from devasting breaches suffered by other companies like Home Depot, GM, and EquifaxThe time to talk cybersecurity with your data partners is now.Cybersecurity and Third-Party Risk is a must-read resource for business leaders and security professionals looking for a practical roadmap to avoiding the massive reputational and financial losses that come with third-party security breaches.GREGORY C. RASNER is the lead of Cyber Third-Party Risk at Truist Financial Corporation. He has extensive experience in cybersecurity and technology leadership in banking, biotech, software, telecom, and manufacturing. He is the author of several published articles on Third Party Risk and is a sought-after keynote speaker in this area.Foreword xviIntroduction xviiiSECTION 1 CYBERSECURITY THIRD-PARTY RISKCHAPTER 1 WHAT IS THE RISK?

Wireless and Mobile Hacking and Sniffing Techniques
Sniffing is the process of monitoring and capturing all the packets passing through a given network using sniffing tools. It is a form of tapping phone wires and get to know about the conversation. It is also called wiretapping applied to the computer networks.Phishing is a cybercrime in which a target or targets are contacted by email, telephone or text message by someone posing as a legitimate institution to lure individuals into providing sensitive data such as personally identifiable information, banking and credit card details, and passwords.There are several ways how hackers can gain access to a public WiFi network and infiltrate connected devices to steal data. The most common practice that hackers use is called sniffing. This method allows hackers to hijack any packet of data that is being transmitted between a device and a router.The mobile device has become an inseparable part of life today. The attackers are easily able to compromise the mobile network because of various vulnerabilities, the majority of the attacks are because of the untrusted apps. SMS is another way the attackers are gaining access to the mobile devices by sending phishing messages/spam messages to userThis report covers the main Wireless and Mobile Hacking and Sniffing Techniques.

Footprinting, Reconnaissance, Scanning and Enumeration Techniques of Computer Networks
Reconnaissance is a set of processes and techniques (Footprinting, Scanning & Enumeration) used to covertly discover and collect information about a target system. During reconnaissance, an ethical hacker attempts to gather as much information about a target system as possible.Footprinting refers to the process of collecting as much as information as possible about the target system to find ways to penetrate into the system. An Ethical hacker has to spend the majority of his time in profiling an organization, gathering information about the host, network and people related to the organization. Information such as ip address, Whois records, DNS information, an operating system used, employee email id, Phone numbers etc is collected.Network scanning is used to recognize available network services, discover and recognize any filtering systems in place, look at what operating systems are in use, and to protect the network from attacks. It can also be used to determine the overall health of the network.Enumeration is defined as the process of extracting user names, machine names, network resources, shares and services from a system. The gathered information is used to identify the vulnerabilities or weak points in system security and tries to exploit in the System gaining phase.The objective of the report is to explain to the user Footprinting, Reconnaissance, Scanning and Enumeration techniques and tools applied to computer networks The report contains of the following parts:Part A: Lab Setup Part B: Foot printing and ReconnaissancePart C: Scanning MethodologyPart D: EnumerationI am Dr. Hidaia Mahmoud Mohamed Alassouli.

Common Windows, Linux and Web Server Systems Hacking Techniques
A Trojan horse or Trojan is a type of malware that is often disguised as legitimate software. Trojans can be employed by cyber-thieves and hackers trying to gain access to users' systems. Users are typically tricked by some form of social engineering into loading and executing Trojans on their systems. Once activated, Trojans can enable cyber-criminals to spy on you, steal your sensitive data, and gain backdoor access to your system.A computer virus is a type of computer program that, when executed, replicates itself by modifying other computer programs and inserting its own code. If this replication succeeds, the affected areas are then said to be "infected" with a computer virus. Computer viruses generally require a host program.System hacking is defined as the compromise of computer systems and software to access the target computer and steal or misuse their sensitive information. Here the malicious hacker exploits the weaknesses in a computer system or network to gain unauthorized access to its data or take illegal advantage.Web content is generated in real time by a software application running at server-side. So hackers attack on the web server to steal credential information, passwords, and business information by using DoS (DDos) attacks, SYN flood, ping flood, port scan, sniffing attacks, and social engineering attacks.This report covers the common techniques and tools used for System, Windows, Linux and Web Server Hacking. The report contains from the following sections:Part A: Setup Lab:Part B: Trojens and Backdoors and VirusesPart C: System HackingPart D: Hacking Web ServersPart E: Windows and Linux HackingI am Dr. Hidaia Mahmoud Mohamed Alassouli.

Extending Kubernetes
Rely on this comprehensive guide to understand the extension patterns and discover the extension plugins for Kubernetes.In this book, state-of-the-art extension patterns and extension points of Kubernetes are covered in depth with real-life use cases and examples. There are comprehensive discussions in the text on all possible aspects of Kubernetes, starting from end-user to the fully-automated controller development. The book focuses on creating applications that work on Kubernetes and also interact and operate Kubernetes itself.The book starts with a recap of Kubernetes, its rich configuration options, extension patterns, and points. The journey of extending Kubernetes starts with the CLI tool plugins. By the end of this section, you will be able to create and manage kubectl plugins. Then, the API access plugins with authentication and authorization webhooks are presented. In this section, you will learn how to extend and interfere with the API flow of Kubernetes. You then move on to learn how to extend Kubernetes API with new resources and controllers. You will make Kubernetes API work for you by creating a Kubernetes operator. Extensions for Kubernetes schedulers are covered to create a custom scheduler and run it side-by-side with the default scheduler. Finally, the last extension points will be discussed for the infrastructure, such as networking or storage. At the end of the text, you will learn the upcoming extension points. This book is designed to cover all the extension points of Kubernetes with state-of-the-art implementations.This book is intended for those who wish to understand Kubernetes in depth and go further by making Kubernetes work for their custom requirements. By the end of this book, readers with a cloud-native mindset will broaden their vision to create future-proof applications. Rather than focus on overwhelming theoretical information and YAML files for Kubernetes resources, readers are provided with the philosophy behind Kubernetes extensions. With real-life examples and hands-on development steps, you will be more confident in working with Kubernetes.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN* Know the Kubernetes extension patterns and available extension points * Be familiar with the philosophy behind Kubernetes extensions and how they should be integrated into the clusters* Design Kubernetes extensions and make Kubernetes work for you* Develop, deploy, and operate plugins for Kubernetes ranging from the CLI tool to custom resources, schedulers, infrastructure, and more * Study real-life use cases for extending Kubernetes with code examplesWHO THIS BOOK IS FORSoftware engineers, developers, DevOps engineers, cloud security analysts, architects, and managers who have Kubernetes in their short- and long-term plansONUR YILMAZ is a senior software engineer at a multinational enterprise software company.

Comparison between Internet Fax Services
Internet faxing uses the same principles as facsimile transmission, but it uses a Web interface instead of a fax machine. It can be a flexible, inexpensive option for transmitting documents.Internet fax services usually assign a fax number to each person who signs up for the service. people can send faxes to this number, and customers can send faxes via e-mail without using a fax machine.To send a fax through an Internet fax service:• The sender attaches a document to an e-mail message. The document can be a scan of a paper document, or it can be created in a program like Microsoft Word.• The sender addresses the message to the recipient's fax number, followed by the name of the faxing service (for example: 18005551234@emailfaxes.com).• The service translates the attachment so that a fax machine can read it.• The service sends the data across the phone line.• The recipient's fax machine decodes the data and prints the fax.To receive a document from a traditional fax machine through an Internet fax service:• The sender dials the fax number that the service has assigned to the recipient.• The fax machine translates the data and transmits it over the phone line.• The service receives the data, translates it into an image file and sends the image to the recipient's e-mail address.• The recipient opens the em-ail message and the attachment and views the file.As getting cheap internet fax service is important, I tried to look for cheap internet fax service that can fax to any country worldwide and can also use PayPal as it is safe payment than credit card. Unfortunately, I could not find cheap fax service for international destination. All internet fax services offer only cheap services to the free zones countries such as usa and Canada. I could not find cheap service to international destinations.Maybe the best of my search for faxing to international destination was FAX.PLUS that allows also paypal. But when I tried to subscribe to basic plane using paypal, paypal asked me to give them permission to access my registered credit card, and I refused that and so I could not subscribe.I will divide web sites that I had look to their internet fax services in the following groups1-Part1: Websites that accepts paypal payments and supports faxing to international countries. Some of these are:• Gotfreefax• fax.to• Faxfresh• PamFax.biz• Faxzero• FAX.PLUS2-Part2: Websites that accepts only credit/debit card payments and supports faxing to international countries• Hellofax• J2 global services vendors. It includes Metrofax, myfax, smartfax, efax, trustfax, rapidfax and fax.com3-Part3: Websites that supports faxing to usa and Canada only• Nextiva• FAXAGE• FAXBetterIn this report, I will compare the internet fax services according to the cost for sending fax to United Arab Emirate. I will assume that I have three pages to be sent to any fax number in UAE.I am Dr. Hidaia Mahmoud Mohamed Alassouli.
