The Recommendation provides taxonomy of security threats from an organization point of view. Cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities including the most common hackers tool
19、s of the trade are presented. Threats are discussed at various network layers. Various Cybersecurity technologies that are available to remedy the threats are discussed including: routers, firewalls, antivirus protection, intrusion detection systems, intrusion protection systems, secure computing an
20、d audit and monitoring. Network protection principles such as defence in depth, access management with application to Cybersecurity are discussed. Risk management strategies and techniques are discussed including the value of training and education in protecting the network. Examples for securing va
21、rious network based on the discussed technologies are also discussed.,ITU Open Forum on Cybersecurity, 6 December 2008,Core Security Recommendations (cont.),10 of 23,ITU-T Recommendation X.1206 A vendor-neutral framework for automatic notification of security related information and dissemination of
22、 updatesSummary This Recommendation provides a framework for automatic notification of security related information and dissemination of updates. The key point of the framework is that it is a vendor-neutral framework. Once an Asset is registered, updates on vulnerabilities information and patches o
23、r updates can be automatically made available to the users or directly to applications regarding the Asset.,ITU Open Forum on Cybersecurity, 6 December 2008,Core Security Recommendations (cont.),11 of 23,Recommendation ITU-T X.1207 Guidelines for telecommunication service providers for addressing th
