We still have spaces available at this weekend's security symposium.
This is our student chapter's first attempt at this sort of thing,
so we're stressing on attendance :-)
If you are interested in attending, please email acm@polyslo.calpoly.edu
and let us know you are coming, we will be accepting registrations
at the door. We will email directions back out to you.
Announcing, "Unix and Networking Security"
Sunday, 12 May, 1991, 9:00AM - 5:00PM
California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo
Sponsored by Cal Poly Student Chapter, ACM
Featuring
Eugene Spafford
Computer security is more than preventing breakins. It also involvs
cleaning up after a breakin. CLeanup may involve restoration of the
system, finding alterations and changes, determining disclosures,
finding the cause of the breakin and fixing it, and initiating legal
action.
Dr. Spafford will discuss how to prepare for a breakin, and how to go
about cleaning up a UNIX system adfter such a breakin has occured. He
will include material on common things to check for (backdoors, trojan
horses, altered audit logs), and how to determine what needs to be done
next.
Pete Shipley
With the advent of larger numbers of computers connected to networks,
both local and internet, the problem of maintaining a secure environment
becomes an increasingly larger and more complex job.
"NetSweep" is a network security test sweep. The purpose of this system
to detect possible security problems on a remote system and generate
a written report.
The "NetSweep" network security system's design and implementation will
be described.
Romy Myers
AT&T and The Wollongong Group have joined efforts to develop a Secure
TCP/IP, called TCP/MLS, to be used on AT&T's B1 rated secure operating
system, called MLS UNIX. MLS UNIX provides security by labeling all
data on a system with a sensitivity label, restricting users and devices
to a clearance range, and recording security relevant information in
a security audit trail. This development effort involved changing the
current TCP/IP protocol suite to adhere to the security polocies
enforced by MLS UNIX as well as the polocies defined by the National
Computer Security Center in the Trusted Network Interpretation (Red Book).
Cost for the symposium is $25, or $20 for ACM and IEEE members. Members
of local student chapters qualify. Attendance is limited, so respond as
soon as possible.

I just saw this on May 13th. If I'd seen it on or before the 11th I might have driven up, if only for a chance to meet Spaff in person. Please post earlier in the future. Thank you. (I know it was a final posting. Apparently none of the others got here in this group). Ob hack: A screen oriented configurator utility to set up the context for various robot drivers. It's written with curses(3X) and tries to be both bsd and SYSV compatible (not to mention idio ... er ... user friendly). Aahhrrgg again!
