Several years (around 2001-2002) ago, I thought IT security will become an important focus, and I started a business named "Right Security Consultants", and provided these services:

  • Configuration of various operating systems
  • Configuration of software and hardware
  • Software development, and development of scripts
  • Penetration of customer’s networks

Around mid 2005, I focused my efforts on providing software development support by joining (then) Borland as a Technical Support Engineer.

Over the years, I have kept my eyes occasionally on the security scene. At some point in the past, I had written a blog entry to remind myself to look at the Metasploit Framework as I was consulted back then on some security issues, and Metasploit Framework was mentioned.

And today... I was reading some PDFs on Enterprise Security Management, and I thought I'll fire a question on Enterprise Security Management, and I learnt that Security Management now includes the following:

  • Backup
  • Antivirus
  • Firewall
  • IDS
  • Vulnerability Assessment (Specifically Automated Vulnerability Detection System)
  • Vulnerability Scanning and Risk Assessment (or Web Site Security Audit products)
  • Patch Management

Previously, I was only aware of some of those, and not all of them...

So... I learnt something new today. :-)
