Intranet Security using a LAN Packet Sniffer to Monitor Traffic

This paper was designed to provide Intranet traffic monitoring by sniffing the packets at the local Area Network (LAN) server end to provide security and control. It was implemented using five computer systems configured with static Internet Protocol (IP) addresses used in monitoring the IP traffic on the network by capturing and analyzing live packets from various sources and destinations in the network. The LAN was deployed on windows 8 with a D-link 16-port switch, category 6 Ethernet cable and other LAN devices. The IP traffics were captured and analyzed using Wireshark Version 2.0.3. Four network instructions were used in the analysis of the IP traffic and the results displayed the IP and Media Access Control (MAC) address sources and destinations of the frames, Ethernet, IP addresses, User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The outcome can aid network administrators to control Intranet access and provide security.

A Strategic Cyber Crime and Security Awareness Information System using a Dedicated Portal

A real time portal (www.ganamoscybersecure.org) to enlighten people on how to protect their data in the web, the strategies adopted by cyber criminals to succeed in exploiting their victims as well as the mistakes made by people and organizations that make them prone to the menace of cyber crime has been designed in this paper. Critical observations were made over time on the degree of awareness and attitudes of people and organizations in some parts of South Africa and Nigeria towards information security. Interviews were conducted using structured questionnaire to elicit information. The outcome showed that most individuals and organizations lack adequate awareness on strategies adopted by cyber criminals, and pay little attention to securing their online data. The application of the services provided by the portal designed would be a sine qua non for contending with the menace of cyber crime.act:
