Written by two AT&T Bell Labs researchers who helped break the infamous "Berferd" hacker case, this book gives you invaluable advice and practical tools for protecting your organization's computers from the very real threat of a hacker attack through the Internet. The authors show you step-by-step how to set up a firewall gateway-a dedicated computer equipped with safeguards that acts as a single, more easily defended, Internet connection.
