BID -- Security Update

[Warthog]

Just an update-

--------------------------------------
NetworkICE announced today "BID is a great tool, but doesn't block everything. We suggest the use of ZoneLab's ZoneAlarm. The conjunction of the two will catch everything coming in and prevent unauthorized programs from accessing the outside world"
-NewYorkTimes
--------------------------------------

So, I guess it'd be a good idea to follow this!

[thinking to self]So, that's who makes BlackICE. I didn't know that.[/thinking to self]

Wow! That's certainly a surprising to say!
Do you have a link to where you read this? Or was it in the actual paper?

That's just rather interesting for them to admit that.

That just affirms what many of us have known, and have been practicing and posting here, for months! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif lol

Sweet! I have the combo and it's great! Best $30 and free combo I've used http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif Now if ZA would only start reporting WHAT kind of attack I'm getting, that'd be great! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif

Warthog, Please post the site or the article where you got this info. Nothing about it here: http://www.networkice.com/ the BID website. I've tried using BID and ZoneAlarm together and my system kept crashing whenever I went on-line. Is this just the opinion of someone at the NY Times or from NetworkIce? http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
