6.3 Summary

In this chapter we have proposed solutions to the security problems on the host that were presented in Chapter 3. For most of the host security problems, we have presented easy-to-implement software solutions. It is only for the problem of misconfigured software that a clear-cut and effective solution could not be devised or implemented. The next chapter attempts to provide solutions to security problems that exist on the network.
