Electronic Resources for Security Related Information, CIAC-2307 R.1

Abstract

Information Technology (IT) security professionals are battling network attackers. Each of the professionals from the operations level down to the assistant computer security officer, whether classified or unclassified, manager or user must maintain their ability to recognize the threat and acquire the appropriate countermeasures. They must gain and maintain knowledge and ability to use the ever increasing resources on parity with the attackers. This paper opens the door for the novice and enlarges the opening for the expert. It increases the reader s threat awareness and enables effective and efficient use of the resources that attackers will certainly use against us. In short, cognizance of electronic resources is critical they are the common ground of both information technology threats and countermeasures. The attackers use the resources with abundant facility; we must become at least as proficient.
