DVR Internet Systems - The Way to Make Security Video Access Storage Simple

Digital video recording systems with internet connectivity have taken home and business security to a whole new level, especially when they're coupled with a broadband internet link that can transmit video to personal computers and smartphones. On-the-go people are increasingly turning to internet and smartphone application integration to keep an eye on things at home and business. Thanks to a DVR internet camera system and a smartphone application, it's a little easier to relax on vacation in Fiji knowing you can check on things at home by simply turning on a cell phone application.

A variety of applications available to smartphone users now make it easier than ever to connect a DVR camera system to an online connection that sends updated video feeds directly to the phone.

Many of the phone applications, even some that are free, offer up to four video feeds on one screen. This makes them ideal for business owners who want to keep an eye on multiple retail locations at one time.

Inside Look at a Moment's Notice
The convenience and ease with which smartphones and some DVR internet systems can be integrated are also freeing business owners and families alike from the typical worries they may face when they're away. For example, if you have placed your DVR cameras strategically in either large areas or small areas, now you can check on your home or business for items left behind or appliances left on in haste, no matter where you are. Another favorite pastime of homeowners is the flexibility to monitor the family pet after a long day at work. Now it's as easy as logging in via your computer for a quick peek at Fido.

Video Storage Security
DVR internet systems typically store video to a hard drive or attached storage device, but some can also be linked to the internet to have video relayed to a secure online storage location if necessary. This makes the systems valuable for insurance purposes in case of fires, tornadoes or extreme disasters that might also destroy any video stored on local hard drives housed with the system.

Remote storage also protects your video footage from criminals who may be more savvy than the average criminal, preventing them from destroying a video storage device or taking it with them.

The digital internet system is a valuable tool for securing the safety and peace of mind we desperately need.

Wireless Network Regulatory Compliance and Security - Questions I Have Asked When Wi-Fi Is in Use

A couple of weeks ago, my nephew had a seizure. He's ok. We did all of the right things and got him the help that he needed. He eventually ended up at a local emergency room. While I was there waiting on the test results to get back, I started to take note of the technology the hospital was using. The biggest observation that I made is that they use Electronic Medical Records (EMR) -- no paper charts. Each observation room had its own computer and there were wireless mobile stations a few feet down the hall. So that led me to ask, "How compliant are they with HIPAA Standards in this wireless environment?"

Yesterday, I was at a local grocery store. I only picked up a handful of items, so I decided to use the self checkout aisle. Unfortunately, my terminal froze on one of the items I was trying to buy. I politely put my hand up to get the attention of the attendant, thinking that she was going to come over and do something to my terminal to get me going again. She didn't come to me. What she did instead was to pull out the stylus on her hand-held wireless computer, made a few taps and voila... I was up and running again. So that led me to ask, "How compliant are they with PCI Standards in this wireless environment?"

Now in two different scenarios, I've asked two questions. Both are the same question and focus on a single technology-wireless networks. The only difference is that I inserted a different standard. One primarily focuses on protecting Electronic Personal Health Information -- HIPAA, and the other primarily focuses on protecting credit card information -- PCI. The installation of a wireless network introduces a new set of issues that have to be addressed in order to be compliant with these standards.

What are some of these issues?
There is no physical medium by which your data is passed. With the data passing through the air, how do you contain access to it?Traditional means to secure a wired network won't all work on a wireless network.Attackers can attack a wireless network without having to go through an internet connection or firewall and remain anonymous.

So what are "some" security measures that could be put in place to address these issues and have a secure wireless network?
Make sure your data is encrypted if you handle sensitive information and/or that your wireless connection is encrypted. Even if someone is observing your signal, they won't be able to understand what they're viewing.
Make sure there is a method in place to authenticate each user as well as a method to authenticate the wireless network you're using. This is called mutual authentication.
Use a Virtual Private Network or a VPN whenever possible. If you have a wireless network connected to your wired network, you should be using a VPN.
Implement a Location-Based Wireless Security System. A Location-Based Wireless LAN security system gives you the ability to precisely determine the physical location of all wireless devices, in and around your RF environment. It continues to monitor your environment 24/7 and implements security protection mechanisms in real-time to address issues such as policy violations, rogue devices, vulnerabilities and threats.

Wireless networks are here to stay and should at least have the 4 security measure mentioned above in place. Wireless networks offer mobility, convenience and a relentless connection to the network, and it's something that every business (even those with a "No Wi-Fi Policy") is going to have to address, especially those that are subjected to standards like HIPAA, PCI, SOX, DOD Directive 8100.2 and GLBA, just to name a few.

Email Security System on the Net

A lot of data is being sent over the internet via emails. Most of these data is important and require to be protected from the unauthorized persons. Several trials have been done to secure the data sent through emails. One method of securing the emails is to encrypt the data before sending and this is decrypted when reaches to the destination.

Encryption is a type of distortion of the data in a way so that if an unauthorized person anyhow gets access of the data, he could not be able to read it in correct form meaning thereby the data is unusable to the person who is not authorized to get it. This is most accepted form of securing the email data from getting hacked or theft by some means. This is also known as cryptogenic method of protection. For starting the data to be encrypted, TCP or IP is needed to be prepared first and then the protection of internet communication is protected. For protecting the traffic on the net, the method is recognized as TLS and SSL in the technical terms. The email data protection is referred to as PGP and this is a quite reliable method for a system to be put upon.

The third type of protection is needed in for securing the internet layers. The process of protecting the internet layers is done by a method which is better referred to as IPsec. By this method, the communication is made secure by first preparing the TCP and IP. All these methods of securing either the data of email or communication or that of the internet layers have been brought by the IETF. These security methods protect the data at the IP level and are thus reliable enough to be used. This is how the data on the internet is made to be protected.

The Importance of Application Level Security for Your Network

While many businesses understand the need for network level security practices in the form of firewalls, ISP filtering and public DNS precautions, less well-known are the security practices required to maintain adequate application level security.

Some malware is designed to bypass a firewall, burrow into existing applications and compromise security from within a computer or a business network. Furthermore, with the rise of business web applications that may or may not work within the auspices of a network firewall, security may be compromised through e-commerce applications, interactive programs on your business website, or other electronic channels of communication between your customers and your business. Finally, the possibility of internal sabotage from the desk of someone who already has access to your network should not be taken lightly in this day and age.

There are, therefore, a wide range of application level vulnerabilities that need to be patched in order to have a watertight security system. Each application needs to have its own monitor to determine whether or not it is behaving appropriately. Inappropriate application behavior can be caused by malware, direct hacking, or internal sabotage from a user who already has access to the system. Some of the ways that this behavior can be monitored and controlled are:

* Standards Validation - Make sure that a program's communication complies with protocol standards and shut it down if it doesn't. These standards are designed and/or implemented by a network administrator for this express purpose. If your network doesn't have explicit protocol standards, you can still have your network raise red flags if a particular action taken by an application doesn't adhere to expected usage.

For instance, if a file downloading program typically only downloads one file at a time, but that program is downloading all the files in the database, this may not be a violation of protocol standards, but it's certainly strange behavior that should be looked into.

* Data Limitation - If one application in a network is compromised, it's a problem that can be fixed. If the application sends corrupted data to other machines and programs in the network, which then replicate and send the malicious code, then you have an epidemic that can be nearly impossible to get a handle on. One of the most important parts of an application level security system involves limiting the amount of data that applications can send to one another.

* Application Control - If a web application is supposed to receive electronic payments and deposit them into a company bank account, that's all it should ever do. Application level security can ensure that it simply doesn't have the access to do anything else. This way, even if malicious code causes the application to attempt to re-route the payments to a hacker's account, your security won't allow it.

Outsourcing and Application Level Security

Maintaining a secure system is very difficult on the application layer, and requires the oversight of an information security professional. It's not that it requires constant monitoring, but it does require some attention in order to make sure that hacking attempts get shut down before they cause too much damage.

You have two choices: you can either hire a full-time information security professional to sit around for most of the day waiting for something bad to happen, or you can outsource your application level security to a trusted information security company for a lot less money, time and effort. The choice should be an easy one to make.

Security Camera Surveillance - Protects Elderly Kin

Turning to security camera surveillance as a way to protect elderly relatives probably never crossed the minds of most families 10 years ago. Today, the practice is almost routine.

Every 10 seconds another baby boomer reaches retirement age. That growing elderly population, along with an entirely new set of threats facing elderly family members, has made increased attention to personal safety a necessity for sons, daughters and caregivers of elderly family members.

For post-retirement parents and family members with the extra challenges of chronic illness, Alzheimer's disease and dementia, the threats are even more prevalent, whether care is given at home or in a nursing home. For them, security camera surveillance can add an extra layer of safety and security.

When the Unthinkable Happens
A recent news article told the story of three men who knocked on the door of an elderly woman's condo and talked the dementia sufferer into going with them to several local retail stores.

Unaware of what was happening, the woman obliged, and by the end of the day the men had persuaded her to apply for credit accounts in each of the stores. Then the men went on a shopping spree that ended up costing the woman more than $10,000.

When the bills started arriving, worried family members were only able to piece together the details of what happened by using security camera surveillance video from the stores where the accounts had been opened.

The story both highlighted the vulnerability of many senior citizens, as well as the value of having the safety net of security surveillance videos.

Elderly Facing Multiple Risks
The potential for health emergencies, elder abuse, stolen prescriptions, identity theft and general mistreatment or under attention has given rise to a new generation of family members turning to security camera surveillance as a solution for ensuring the health and security of their loved ones.

The National Research Council Panel to Review Risk and Prevalence of Elder Abuse estimates that between 2% and 10% of seniors in nursing homes have been victims of abuse or theft.

Being able to keep an eye on loved ones via camera feeds has given concerned family members both peace of mind and the ability to maintain work schedules while still providing the needed attention.

In-Home or Care Center Situations
An at-home security camera surveillance system installation can provide peace of mind when family members want to feel security in their part-time, in-home caregiver's service. An in-home system can also alert family members with remote monitoring capabilities to health emergencies with ample time to respond.

These in-home systems also allow family members more information in the event of an ill or infirm relative who wanders off or leaves the premises.

Before installing a security camera surveillance system in an elderly relative's room in a care facility, you'll want to first be sure you've reviewed any contracts and spoken with an administrator first.

In some states, it's legal to possess a camera that's in personal belongings that stay with the elderly person, such as a stuffed animal, pen or wristwatch.

Also, some states, such as Texas, have already passed legislation that allows these "granny cams."

When in doubt, be sure to ask someone in a position of authority in any care center you've contracted with.

Cyberterrorism Is the Biggest Threat to National Security

Cyberterrorism is a term used "...to describe the use of Internet based attacks in terrorist activities, including acts of deliberate, large-scale disruption of computer networks, especially of personal computers attached to the Internet, by the means of tools such as computer viruses" according to Wikipedia.

The UK Government published its National Security Strategy A Strong Britain in an Age of Uncertainty in October 2010 which outlined the reappraisal of Britain's role in the world, the risks to national security and their implication for the UK. This report set the context for today's strategic defence review (SDR), the coalition administration said cyber attacks, international terrorism and natural disasters are the major threats to the UK. In an age of suicide bombers, this seemed like a surprising statistic.

However, it is a worrying threat - as hackers gaining access to nuclear power plants could lead to catastrophic consequences. Cheltenham's British intelligence agency, GCHQ, has also stated that the UK's critical infrastructure, such as power grids, faces a "real and credible threat" of cyberattack. The days of a geeky misguided youngster causing mischief in his bedroom by creating a virus appear to be long gone. Although minor (although, obviously not adjudged to be minor amongst the victims) "cyber terrorist" attacks regularly take place via hackers and criminal gangs - but in recent years "alleged" more serious attacks have been launched by countries against each other according to well respected officials.

The most famous being in 2007 when electronic attacks seriously harmed Estonia's government, banking and media website, where a hacker (or hackers) in Russia managed to hit them with an impressive number of simultaneous connections coming from all over the globe. A virus called 'Stuxnet' was also created, according to reports run in various British media, to harm Iran's nuclear programme. This (according to a report in The Telegraph) was "...a collaboration between at least one Western power and the Israeli secret service" a British cyber security expert has claimed.

The role of computer forensics experts is set to become an important aspect of the UK's national security and it is reassuring to see that this issue is being researched from "the very top" of British Government.

Andrew has written many articles with his media work with computer forensics and mobile phone forensics experts Intaforenics.

Managed Internet Security: Could This Be the Right Solution for Your Business?

Managed Internet security is a popular solution for many businesses, and can be surprisingly cost-effective.

For nearly all businesses today, an Internet connection is indispensible. However, an Internet connection opens up your business to all manner of new threats, such as viruses, hackers, bandwidth theft, or inappropriate internet use by insiders. There is a very real need to take steps to safeguard your firm's information security. However, many businesses, especially smaller firms, lack the relevant technical expertise and resources in-house. For them, the right solution will managed internet security, whereby their computer security needs are outsourced to a specialist security firm to be managed on their behalf.

The growth of managed Internet security is a logical extension of the outsourcing of business processes that has been known for many years, such as the outsourcing of the payroll, finance, IT or training functions. However, as a relatively recent development it lacks the high profile available to these other outsourced business processes. This is regrettable, since managed Internet security is a vital development in the on-going fight against computer threats, and can form an essential part of a firm's information risk management strategy.

There are several areas where an organisation's computer security can be outsourced to specialist firms, such as the following core aspects.

Monthly web application scanning services: Regular monthly security scanning of your web applications can be indispensible in identifying vulnerabilities that could be exploited by hackers. The automated scan should ideally be supplemented by a manual review by an experienced tester, as automated tools will not yield all possible data on their own.

Monthly network vulnerability assessments: In a similar way, a monthly review of your network's security can catch problems before hackers find them, so that they can be corrected. This regular scan will complement the less frequent full penetration testing.

PCI Audit: This type of testing is mandatory for all companies licensed under the Payment Card Industry (PCI) regulations. It needs to be undertaken regularly by a suitably qualified company.
Your company's managed internet security solution can also be complemented by outsourcing your general information security management needs. This can be either on a permanent or a short-term basis, making use of expertise from a specialist computer security firm.

Whatever type of service is selected by your business, you will almost certainly find that it is more cost-effective than developing the same resource in-house, especially in the case of smaller companies that do not have the resources to hire their own specialist staff. The managed Internet security solution is also more flexible, in that it can be discontinued at short notice, or alternatively increased at short notice. It avoids the need to acquire specialised technical software, or to spend time keeping one's technical knowledge up-to-date. For all but the largest companies, therefore, managed Internet security is a clear winner in terms of cost versus benefit, and should be seriously considered by all companies with an Internet connection.
