Abstract :
In recent years, many organizations have shifted their computing facilities from central mainframes (accessed from simple terminals via serial lines) to servers accessed from personal computers via a local area network (LAN). The switch to LANs removed some old problems and introduced some new problems. Although many of the new problems are not particularly to do with security, this paper only considers security problems
