Keywords: Security/Encryption (Technologies)

Author:Dr. Simon Liu, Director, Office of Computer and Communications
Abstract:At the February 2002 CENDI meeting, Dr. Liu explained that the biggest threats for computer security at NLM are from information gathering and viruses and that the challenge is to maintain performance and reliability in the face of these threats. The current security architecture at NLM includes three zones, however, in 2002, they will be moving to a five zone architecture. The new architecture separates the internal IDS from the incident monitoring and for public servers from the private servers. Dr. Liu characterized the new system as being multidimensional in nature. He closed by saying that good security is better than perfect security that can never be implemented.
