Greetz everyone. Good job on the newsletter everyone. ;)
I was wondering what topics and 'advanced' material was going to be
included in the next newsletter. What topics do you have so far?
Just curious.. hopefully I can think of a good topic to contribute to the
newsletter.. any ideas or suggestions?

Well Im not sure what Ennis had in mind but if I might be able to put forward some suggestions..
- how about how one would do a security audit
- how to plan a "wargame" to practise your security and hacking skills
- social engineering (what it is and how to defend against it)
- Physical security (what are the things we often overlook)
- pros and cons of IPv6
- how to identify a vulnerability versus system bug and how to create an exploit to point out the vulnerability
- what happens, generally, when an exploit is used
- cryptography topics (from latest algorithms to future puzzles)
- humourous stories as usual, whether security based or computer based
- what you need to know for security certification and what certifications are out there
- where to effectively put an IDS, what an IDS does, etc..
- what is a honeypot and how to use one and where to put one
Of course, any other topics are welcomed. If you have ideas PM me or if you have an article send it to me at [email protected]. =)
Hey I would like to know about if programming is going to be involved in this newsletter
or in the future. I would like to do a COBOL tutorial if possible. I'm sure that people would like to share there knowledge to others about programming or even how to do certain concepts that many other internet sites don't offer.
Yes I know COBOL isn't very popular and many don't like it but it's what I can program in and it's somthing I can share with others.
By all means Free0n, send in an article on programming. As I said, if it's not listed and you have an idea by all means send it in.. COBOL is still used on the AS/400 isn't it? Is there a security aspect to it that might be worthwhile to consider that sometimes programmers forget about?
Just because I didn't list it doesn't mean we don't want it.. just didn't think about it at that time. ;)
Thanks for the ideas MsMittens.. I'm not sure which topic to cover,
they all seem interesting. :)
Ennis, what did you have in mind for the advanced topics?

Thanks Ms. Mittens for your suggestions. I thinks I'll do a short article on how one would do a security audit. I've already sent you a copy of what I've wrote so far but I'm not sure if you've read it or not.. After you've went over it tell me what you think and feel free to modify anything you see necessary.Quote:

Hello Msm and Ennis!
Good day to you!!! I was wondering if I can discuss in the Web Development Section some tips and tricks in handling images, layout and color. The tutorial part on the other hand, is a sub-section on slicing images via photoshop.
A blessed day to all!!!
... It's me Alexzel :D

That would be nice for the Web Development Section!
The topics suggested by MsMittens promise a lot.
I hope all those are going to be in the newsletter... ;)
Hello Msm and Ennis
it would be nice to have some programming aspects as well, mainly network sockets and so and so , preferably in C or in java.
The topics in the last one were nice
i would really like to see the exploit sections. how to make them , what do they do, and how to patch them. this is something i've been trying to look into for a while now. i also think there should be something for the big time newbies about linux. such as: the advantages, disadvantages, which one to pick, basic installation procedures, partitioning, basic commands, setting up internet etc... hey, maybe i'll write that one up?
some sort of tutorials on perl will do. i am sure they will appreciate the power of perl scripting/programming.
Maybe somthing in the line of cgi? That way people can get a some c and perl.....
some c basics would be nice..
perl too...
but how about "porkupine" firewalls and creative redirections..
like that fire on telnet thingy i showed u ppl...
ppl think you have a lame puter on an ip...
buth what they don't know is that there are many puters and u just see a firewall that looks like a lame puter...
Setting up a home lan with internet connection including hardware and software issues.
Hardware firewalls, what are they, how are they used and are they worth the $$$, at what level is it time to get one (compared to a software firewall)
Maybe a bit too basic.. but there are alot of newbies :)
I decided instead of bumping this up to put in a quick reply. We are still looking for more articles for AntiOnline Newsletter #2. I've put suggestions at the beginning of this thread but we're not limited to just those articles. If you have something you'd like to submit, please do so. ;)
You can send it to me via Private Message or email me at [email protected].
Deadline for submissions: Friday February 22, 2002 Midnight EST
How about setting up a secure WLAN?
Implementing a VPN?(site to site and remote user to site configs)?
Actual attacks on personal firewalls and tests like Outbound(to show that Sygate is better than them all)
Setting up a honeynet/tarpit for home.
Programming basics would be good, as Jinx said. Though I think in general maybe basics across a wide range of subjects might be an idea, as there are alot of seriously computer savvy people on AO. And I for one would like more of a chance to learn of them! ;)
Being selfish and just having got Linux, I'd like to see a basics on Linux included!
Another idea might be to supply direct web site links on a whole range of subjects. I know Ennis recently made a post which included this....
:hiphop:
Idea: an article on PHP?
I'm just kinda starting to learn it and I would like to see something on how to incorporat it into security. If you even can?
Thanks.
Am sure whatever articles you decide on it'll be just as intresting as the last one keep up the good work ;)

btw: midridth - a friend of mine has just started learning how php can be intergrate into flash, he was showing/explaining a bit of it too me and it is seriously intresting :)
It'd be good if the newletter was available in HTML format. I find that PDF's are a pain in the ass to view. Keep up the good work =).
Yup, html format would be nice.
Besides PGP, RSA would be interesting. Ofcourse a comparison between the two. :)
Maybe do a article about Ennis and his 1000th post... An AO biography or something like that :)
Hey I did an article about my time at AO, so you'll get to see when the newsletter is out!!!
Any articles to MsMittnes NOW!!!!!!
Yeah ;) :)Quote:
