<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Application level security measures control how
|
||
|
|
users can interact with specific applications. In general, you should configure
|
||
|
|
security settings for each application that you use. However, you should take
|
||
|
|
special care to set up security for those applications and services that you
|
||
|
|
will be using from, or providing to, the Internet. These applications and
|
||
|
|
services are vulnerable to misuse by unauthorized users looking for a way
|
||
|
|
to gain access to your network systems. The security measures that you use
|
||
|
|
need to include both server-side and client-side security exposures.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
||
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />While it is important to secure each application that you
|
||
|
|
use, the security measures play a small part in your overall security policy
|
||
|
|
implementation.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
