- Daily monitoring and logging of
- logins (ssh, telnet, ftp, and others)

How can you help on improving security?
- Select good password. See
Hints on selecting good password document.
- Reboot your workstation to get the latest security and
system updates when you receive notice of new patches release. See
What's new for the
latest software and patches releases.
- Use ssh instead of telnet and
sftp instead of ftp to prevent
clear password passing over the network.
- Remember that giving

permission on an Access Control List

enables
over 20 millions Internet users aroundthe globe to read
or write your files -- do not do this!
