Linux Firewalls Attack Detection and Response

You'll learn how to deploy iptables as an IDS with psad and fwsnort and how to build a strong, passive authentication layer around iptables with fwknop."--BOOK JACKET.Rash, Michael is the author of 'Linux Firewalls Attack Detection and Response' with ISBN 9781593271411 and ISBN 1593271417.
