Data in Motion</h2></div></div></div><div class="para"> Data in motion is data that is being transmitted over a network. The biggest threats to data in motion are interception and alteration. Your user name and password should never be transmitted over a network without protection as it could be intercepted and used by someone else to impersonate you or gain access to sensitive information. Other private information such as bank account information should also be protected when transmitted across a network. If the network session was encrypted then you would not have to worry as much about the data being compromised while it is being transmitted. </div><div class="para"> Data in motion is particularly vulnerable to attackers because the attacker does not have to be near the computer in which the data is being stored rather they only have to be somewhere along the path. Encryption tunnels can protect data along the path of communications.

This is useful to maintain integrity of the message or file and also protects the confidentiality of the information contained within the file or email. In the case of email, GPG provides dual protection. Not only can it provide Data at Rest protection but also Data In Motion protection once the message has been sent across the network. </div><div class="para"> File based encryption is intended to protect a file after it has left your computer, such as when you send a CD through the mail. Some file based encryption solutions will leave remnants of the encrypted files that an attacker who has physical access to your computer can recover under some circumstances. To protect the contents of those files from attackers who may have access to your computer, use file based encryption combined with another solution such as full disk encryption.

LUKS Implementation in Fedora</h3></div></div></div><div class="para"> Fedora 9, and later, utilizes LUKS to perform file system encryption. By default, the option to encrypt the file system is unchecked during the installation. If you select the option to encrypt you hard drive, you will be prompted for a passphrase that will be asked every time you boot the computer. This passphrase "unlocks" the bulk encryption key that is used to decrypt your partition. If you choose to modify the default partition table you can choose which partitions you want to encrypt. This is set in the partition table settings Index: sect-Security_Guide-Option_Fields-Access_Control.html =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/fedora/web/html/docs/security-guide/f10/en_US/sect-Security_Guide-Option_Fields-Access_Control.html,v retrieving revision 1.6 retrieving revision 1.7 diff -u -r1.6 -r1.7 --- sect-Security_Guide-Option_Fields-Access_Control.html 27 Jan 2009 13:50:52 -0000 1.6 +++ sect-Security_Guide-Option_Fields-Access_Control.html 28 Jan 2009 00:04:29 -0000 1.7 @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> -<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title>2.5.2.2.2.

Any open ports can be evidence of an intrusion. </div><div class="para"> There are two basic approaches for listing the ports that are listening on the network. The less reliable approach is to query the network stack using commands such as <code class="command">netstat -an</code> or <code class="command">lsof -i</code>. This method is less reliable since these programs do not connect to the machine from the network, but rather check to see what is running on the system. For this reason, these applications are frequent targets for replacement by attackers. Crackers attempt to cover their tracks if they open unauthorized network ports by replacing <code class="command">netstat</code> and <code class="command">lsof</code> with their own, modified versions.
