New ExchangeDefender Engine

Since December 15th we have been testing a new ExchangeDefender antispam engine that has gone into production, January 5th. The new engine improves SPAM filtering efficiency by nearly 800% and shows about 5% less false positives than the current engine.

This new system has been running in the background transparently simultaneously with our previous engine and did not impact operations. We have started to notice new trends in SPAM lately and have moved to improve filtering of the items that have not been accurately picked up by the network.

We want to thank you for submitting SPAM through our ExchangeDefender Outlook 2007 agent as that has been critical in our ability to better protect you from junk. If you have not yet installed the new ExchangeDefender Outlook 2007 plugin, or the new ExchangeDefender Desktop please do so today. They are available for download on the homepage at www.comtech-netwoking.com/ActiveCare/downloads.htm

Enjoy your new, cleaner mailbox!

Day Light Savings Time Changes

Time is critical when it comes to security. Logs, access time, and authentication all need to exhibit the precise time if they're going to work correctly. And synchronization of that time across your enterprise is vital.

If you operate a network in the United States, impending changes to Daylight Saving Time (DST), courtesy of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, is going to affect your operations. Let's look at what these changes entail.

What's the problem?

Most of us are familiar with the DST rule of thumb: Spring forward, Fall back. While the concept will remain the same, the details are changing this year.

Previously, DST began on the first Sunday of April and ended on the last Sunday of October. This year, thanks to an energy bill President Bush signed in August 2005, DST begins three weeks earlier on March 11. (DST also ends one week later; this year, it ends November 4.)

Besides having to manually change some clocks, how does this affect your organization? It depends on what type of hardware and software you have in your enterprise.

For example, if you run Microsoft systems on your network, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003 are good to go. Both OS versions either have the changes built-in or the changes were part of a previous service pack—one more reason to make sure you're up to date on the latest service pack. But you'll need to update other Windows systems. Don't wait until March 9 to make sure. Call ComTech Computer Services, for assistance. (254) 770-1210

However, regardless of what software you're running on your network, the possible effects of an unevenly applied time change can have a variety of effects on your security operations.

Mike Mullins has served as an assistant network administrator and a network security administrator for the U.S. Secret Service and the Defense Information Systems Agency. He is currently the director of operations for the Southern Theater Network Operations and Security Center.

Have you ran your updates lately. Microsoft is in a constant fight to stay in front of the hackers and one of the ways they do that is by creating Critical Updates, for their operating systems. If you do not run critical updates on a monthly basis you can be more susceptible to viruses than not.  Running the updates is not a guarantee that you will not get a virus or a worm but it helps prevent the known holes that most hackers go hackers after.
