Hi list, Some time ago I was faced with the task of testing a newly deployed anti-malware solution for a corporate enterprise with 20,000+ desktops. We wanted to check whether overtly malicious content would reach the desktop browser. If it was detected and blocked, where? (e.g. ISA proxies, URL content filters, SSL inspection, IDS/IPS, firewall HTTP inspection policy, web inline antivirus, IE/firefox/chrome blacklists or desktop antivirus). Rather than testing a live malware infected website, we created http://www.wicar.org/ to remove the uncertainty in the event none of the implemented security controls had prevented the [unknown] payload reaching the desktop. There is a mailing list (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/wicar) and git (https://github.com/wicar) if anyone wishes to contribute. -Patrick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Securing Apache Web Server with thawte Digital Certificate In this guide we examine the importance of Apache-SSL and who needs an SSL certificate.
