As Id did the port to MS-DOS, I can assure you, that the sources have been
ported in a way, that you can compile them with Unix as well as with MS-DOS.
But the MS-DOS package doesn't contain the Unix MakeFile and man pages.

If you would like to have the Unix archive, please contact ilh@lcs.mit.edu

version of the t1utils.

You might want to look at DISKSECURE: shareware, and available on many ftp
sites that carry antiviral software.

The commercial Virus0Buster has a program that runs in CONFIG.SYS.  Advanced
Security had a program that ran from the MBR, but is no longer sold (good
thing too.)

I've used RAMPART before.  I haven't actually tried to break in, but it
should provide protection at least through the intermediate user.  It provides
the ability to "lock" a hard drive (through encryption?) so it seems relatively
secure.

I believe the U. S. military uses it.

There are a number of systems which encrypt the hard disk and only let you in
with the right password.

The one I have on my shelf is called Protec, from International Data Security
Inc. It gives you all the features of mainframe access control - different 
users restricted to different directories, audit trials, the whole treeful of 
pretty parrots.

I once evaluated it for a client; it seems to work OK (and was apparently 
first developed for the USAF). Now I use a Sun it's no good to me. What am I

After a long fight I've managed to convince my higher powers that 
connections to the outside world are a Good Thing. However, they
want us to have a 6 month trial, after which we will review its
usage. So, I'm looking for a way of getting ftp (and possibly
telnet and rlogin, but these aren't so important) to log:

	o who invoked it
	o from what machine it was invoked
	o where did it connect to
	o what was downloaded

I've thought about doing this with by writing a shell script wrapper to
ftp but I'm sure someone somewhere must already have done it.

Can someone point me in the right direction ?

Thanks

But that is the applicable way. If you have access to the hardware, you can 
break every machine. If you use PCs or Workstations and have this machine
in your office, you can only expect to have external security.
I mean, you can not break in without opening the machine.

If you have external (SCSI?) disks, it is possible to read the disk with 
another than the dedicated machine.

> There's no way to protect a PC from use by unauthorized users ..

I do not agree! Only if you let have the potentially unauthorized users
access to the hardware. If they dont have access to the hardware,
they can't break in.
For example you connect monitor, keyboard, mouse, tablet and 
diskette drive through a small hole in the wall to the workstation in
another (locked!!!) room. Then it depends only on the software.

If you don't mind for people booting your PC with MSDOS 5.0,
editing the disk and changing the line in config.sys that says
DEVICE=C:\DRDOS\LOGIN.EXE to something like
REM CE=C:\DRDOS\LOGIN.EXE
and then boot your computer again.
You could put a BIOS password but then if someone takes the battery out you're done
again.

DES is strong enough. In fact, you have to choose very carefully, if
you want to get weak keys... :-) There are only 4 weak keys in the
whole 2^56 keyspace...

To those who are suggesting that encrypting the hard disk makes the
system "secure": please, don't forget that security and secrecy is not
one and the same thing. Security also includes integrity, reliability,
and availability. And, on a PC I can boot from a diskette and format
the whole encrypted partition without problems! Therefore, the
encrypted partitions help improving the secrecy of the system, not the
security...

1) It's a bit too much to recomend to somebody to change the whole
operating system, if he just needs a password requesting program.

2) A password in CONFIG.SYS is just as laughable as one in
AUTOEXEC.BAT.

3) The login password protection in DR-DOS 6.0 can be bypassed with
just a bootable diskette and DEBUG. Of course, if you have something
more convenient, like Norton Utilities, the task becomes really easy.

It depends on the encryption method used. If it is DES, or something
equally strong, you are simply out of luck.

Exactly. Encryption can prevent only read access on a PC, not write
access. The attacker still has the possibility to destroy your data.
Here only a hardware solution can help - one that enforces physical
security.

  The Dell I use has a password option in the BIOS setup that I can
use.  It can be bypassed by setting the EPWD jumper on the mother-
board, but I have a cable lock and have locked the case lock, so you
will need a cutting torch or shears to pop the case.

  My Macintosh uses a program that encrypts everything on the hard
disk with DES.  On bootup, the driver asks for the key, and the driver
takes care of the (de)crypting.  

Sane, simple, and secure.

  I have basically tried all security setups for Mac, and
none is as safe and secure as the Hard Disk Toolkit set to
encrypt all on your HD.  Most of the Mac security progs will
trash your HD because they dork with your FAT and alloc info.

I just wish the Mac had a BIOS password option, but Macs will
never be secure machines unless there is a rewrite of the OS.

I asked about this at the USENIX Unix Computer Security Symposium in
Baltimore a few weeks ago and Gene Spafford told me that this appears to be
an urban legend.  I don't have the details, but I believe he cited a search
of LEXIS by some researchers looking for just the case you mention and
nothing was found.

That's not to say that someone didn't start to bring the case and then
dropped it before it got to trial.

Sorry I don't have some details for you.

Then again, DES isn't that strong if your keys aren't chosen carefully (for a

There;s a company, Secura PC, that makes a hardware/software device.  You
have a little chip (That can go on your keyring) and you touch it two
these two contacts on bootup, it has a unique, 256bit, key that's read serially
in 1/20 second, and then, when combined with a password, unlocks your 
computer.  Ah, but youc an boot of a floppy, you say.  Not when the program
encrypts every sector on your harddrive.

However, I've had problems getting it to work, I'm not sure if their
encryption scheme is any good (256 bits, come on!) and there's performance
degradation (10-15%) on all harddrive reads/writes.  I'm going to return
it, but am worried they'll rip me off.  Such is life (they've also got
atrocious support - i've called twice and was given bad advice, and I've
left messages, in the middle of the day, and haven't been called back.)

I heard or read of a case a while back where the hacker
who was being proseuted was exonerated because the system
that he broke into printed a "welcome" greeting.

Can anybody point me to some info about this, preferably 
something in print?

Thanks.
