  Well as per the introduction document, I'm dropping a line to the list
to introduce myself. I'm a Comp. Sci. undergrad here at SUNY Albany, with
interests in networking and multiuser security. I work for a local ISP,
and assist the CS Department as an administrator of one of the undergrad
unix clusters. The particular situation I'm in as admin of this site is
that the stipulations of the grant for the lab dictate that it be an
open-access oriented system, so restricting user abilities isn't much of
an option to increase security. In any case, I'm interested to see the
content of this forum.

Hello!

  I joined your list and want to introduce myself.

I am system administrator and student concurrently.

I have three official IBM certificates:
  AIX Support Professional
  AIX System Administrator
  AIX Advanced System Administrator

About a month ago I have found serious hole in AIX - any user can read any
file without any effort (such as put an RISC assembler code in overloaded
buffer, etc ), simply command line. IBM issues path in three days.
I had experience in security, put SSL telnet, ftp, http on my system,
but I newer think that this problem is too big!

I decide to study security much more better.

Thank you!

andy

     I've been on the side-lines reading everyone's correspondence for 
     quite some time...however, today I have found time to jump in and 
     introduce myself.  I work for a new company and am tasked with 
     security.  Titles aren't of much importance here, but basically I:   
     recommend policies, standards, and procedures; assist teams in the 
     selection and implementation of protective measures; evaluate new 
     technology and recommend strategies; identify possible 
     vulnerabilities; coordinate and assist in the development of BRAs; 
     support all areas as a consultant; and monitor changes to laws and 
     regulations law well as technologies.  These security chats provide 
     information needed to keep our security administrators informed...as 
     no one knows everything.  Thus far, everyone has done an excellent job 
     in providing valuable information....so I commend you all!

     Karen
