As to be protected from the analyzer of the protocols

Let us be specified immediately - in the councils concerning that how to protect from the analyzer of protocols, require only those, who desire to give the rebuff to computer burglars, who use analyzers of protocols for organizing the attacks on the computer systems, connected to the network. In the hands of net administrator the analyzer of protocols is the highly useful tool, which helps it to find and to remove malfunctions, to get rid of the bottlenecks, which decrease the capacity of network, and to in proper time reveal the penetration into it of computer burglars.

But to advise is possible following. First, to attempt to acquire by the net adapter, which principally cannot function in the disorderly regime. Such adapters in nature exist. Some of them do not support disorderly regime at the apparatus level (such minority), and rest simply are supplied with driver which it does not allow work in the disorderly regime, although this regime is realized by apparatus. In order to find the adapter, which does not have disorderly regime, sufficient to be connected with the service of technical support to any company, which trades in the analyzers of protocols, and to explain, with what adapters their program packets do not work. In the second place, taking into account that the specification RS99, prepared in the depths of corporations Microsoft and Intel, requires the unconditional presence in the net map of disorderly regime, to acquire the contemporary net intellectual switchboard, which buffers the communication in the memory transferred by the network and is sent it as far as possible accurately for address. Thus the necessity for the "hearing" by the adapter of entire traffic in order to narrow from it the communications, addressee of which is this computer, it drops off.

Thirdly, not to allow the unsanctioned introduction of the analyzers of protocols to the computers of network. Here should be used means from the arsenal, which is used for dealing with the program layings and in particular - with the Trojan programs (installation of fire walls) fourthly, to cipher entire traffic of network. There is a wide spectrum of the program packets, which make it possible to make this sufficiently effectively and reliably. For example, the possibility of the coding of post passwords is allowed by the superstructure above the post protocol POP (Post Office Protocol) - by protocol APOP (Authentication POP). With the work with APOP by the network each time is transferred the new encrypting combination, which does not make possible for criminal to extract any practical benefit from the information, intercepted with the aid of the analyzer of protocols. Problem only in the fact that today not all mail servers and clients support APOP.

Another product by the name Secure Shell, or in abbreviated form - SSL, was originally developed by the Finnish company SSH Communications Security (http:// www.ssh.fi) and at present has the set of the realizations, accessible free of charge through Internet. SSL is the protected protocol for the realization of the safe transfer of communications along the computer network with the aid of the coding.
