• Encourage your company or organization to develop a comprehensive security plan.
Good network administration takes into account what hackers can do and prepares

employees about the importance of security and how to minimize risk. Produce lists like

• Never give out a password or any sensitive information to an unsolicited telephone call or
e-mail.
• Never e-mail sensitive information such as passwords, credit card information, etc.,

• Never submit sensitive information via a web page unless the web site uses secure
connections. You can identify a secure connection by looking for a small “key” icon on
the bottom of your browser (Internet Explorer 3.02 or better or Netscape 3.0 or better). If
a web site uses a secure connection, it is safe to submit information. Secure web
transactions are quite difficult to crack.

throwing it away. Some hackers dig through the trash of companies or individuals for
information that might help them in an attack.

9.7 Packet Filtering Vs Firewall
Below are some comparisons between the ZyXEL Device’s filtering and firewall functions.
9.7.1 Packet Filtering:
• The router filters packets as they pass through the router’s interface according to the filter
rules you designed.
• Packet filtering is a powerful tool, yet can be complex to configure and maintain,
especially if you need a chain of rules to filter a service.
• Packet filtering only checks the header portion of an IP packet.
