Q.2 Network security is an issue at firms of all sizes.
Even the best of information-technology (IT) departments constantly face new
challenges as they try to keep their firms' systems secure. The only completely
secure computer is one that is not connected to a network or the Internet - and
we all know that is not an option in today’s workplace. With that in mind, we
need to find ways to mitigate the threats of data loss both in transition and
on digital media.
Data encryption, one of the
best and most commonly used methods of determining data theft and hacking, is
transparent to the end user. Encryption is the act of adding a cipher or string
of characters to raw data (such as binary computer files), and in doing so,
creating "ciphertext," or encoded blocks of text. In effect,
encryption takes data that is easily viewable and "translates" it
into a coded language that is very difficult to read. The computer system has
to remove the cipher to convert it back to usable data by the end user.
Encryption is used primarily in three security scenarios: SSL Web encryption,
digital media encryption and email encryption.
SSL encryption
To most users, the padlock in
the corner of their Web browser that shows up on certain Web pages is an
indication that the information they are sending or retrieving over the
Internet is secure. Any site can be encrypted by simply purchasing and applying
a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Certificate to the site. SSL encryption allows for
the transmission of sensitive data between people and sites, eliminating the
worry about whether that information is floating around the Internet in
plain-text format.
One of the rapidly growing uses
of SSL encryption in the accounting industry is securing Web portal access.
More and more companies are allowing employees to connect to their network
remotely and are implementing SSL Virtual Private Networks (VPN), which require
individual passwords to trigger decryption of the information to secure the traffic.
Additionally, clients are logging into the network via portals to extranets
holding their secure data.
Spring 2012
This is what a complete SSL
transaction involves:
* An end user requests access
to a secure page via a Web browser, usually https:// and over port 443. Port
443 was defined by Netscape as the standard port number for secure
communications via the Web and is still used as the secure port today.
* The contacted server
transmits its public key with its certificate. The browser verifies that the
certificate was issued by a trusted party, that the certificate is valid and
that the certificate is affiliated with the site contacted.
* The browser then uses the public
key to encrypt a random symmetric encryption key and sends it to the server
with the encrypted URL required, as well as other encrypted http data.
* The Web server decrypts the
symmetric encryption key using its private key and uses the symmetric key to
decrypt the URL and http data.
* The Web server sends back the
requested Web document and http data encrypted with the symmetric key.
* The Internet browser decrypts
the data and Web page using the symmetric key and displays the information.
Here's a diagram of how that
description works for a CPA firm client:
Encrypted digital media
Traditionally, accounting firms
went to great lengths to secure client data in their office and in off-site
storage, but little attention was paid to the data traveling with the auditors
on a daily basis. That, coupled with the increased popularity of telecommuting,
has increased the necessity of encrypting digital media such as hard drives,
flash digital media drives, PDAs and smart phones to insure the security of your
firm's data. Both hardware and software manufacturers have identified the need
for such encryption, and many are including such solutions in their products.
The initial push for digital
media encryption began with the need to secure hard drives. Several technology
platforms emerged, leading to a debate between whole-disk encryption versus
encryption vaults, which finally lead to the realization that both should be
used in conjunction for optimal results. The approach of whole-disk encryption
is that the hard drive is useless without the encryption password once the
computer is shut down. The encrypted-vault model was especially useful on
computers with shared access, as each user has their own encrypted space that
cannot be accessed by other users. Each user can encrypt a folder on the
computer that no one else even realizes is there. Whole-disk encryption is the
most prevalent technology, but in many scenarios, both encryption techniques
are used together for maximum security.
This is how encrypted digital
media works in our everyday environment: Look around your desk, in your pockets
or purse. You'll probably find a USB flash drive. USBs are extremely portable,
easy to use, readily available, inexpensive and can hold large
Spring 2012
amounts of data. The same
characteristics that make these drives so popular are exacdy why they are such
a security threat. Browse the Internet, and you will find a significant number
of instances where lost drives have caused companies to lose critical and
confidential data. The chances are good that encrypted USBs, which are readily
available but more costly, can prevent such losses.
Many PDAs and smart phones can
be encrypted as well. Generally, the entire device is not encrypted; instead,
the storage digital media card is protected (similar to the encryption vault
model). Even though most devices have remote wipe capabilities that remove all
data and return the phone to factory defaults, if the phone or PDA is lost and
the person who finds it does not connect to the Web, the data could be
compromised. Current versions of Microsoft Exchange have included the ability
to encrypt the PIM. VOL (which is the information storage on a Wondows Mobile
phone) on Windows Mobile phones, which includes e-mail and calendars, temp
folders and the user's document folders. Additionally there are third-party
solutions that accomplish the same security, but will work across multiple
phone platforms, such as GaurdianEdge SmartPhone Protection which protects
iPhone, Palm and Windows Mobile phones.
The scalability of the
encryption products on the market are extremely varied, as some are targeting
an individual device while others are delivered and managed through network
policies.
Encrypted e-mail
As e-mail continues to grow and
gain vitality in corporations' communication systems, so has the need to
protect this information in transit from company to company. This is currently
the least-used area of encryption and has met with some resistance since it is
often difficult to implement and use. Companies are using encrypted e-mail and
secure file transfer technologies to protect communications between their
employees and clients, but more importantly are protecting sensitive content in
the e-mails. Clients of CPA firms have a reasonable expectation that any
financial or personal information (such as Social Security Numbers, bank
account information, pay stubs, etc.) sent via e-mail is encrypted, and
legislation is quickly catching up to the technology (see ,e.g., Personal Data
Privacy and Security Act of 2005 and Gramm-LeachBiley Act).
Currently, several different
methods are used to encrypt e-mails:
* Endpoint to Endpoint: This
means that the e-mail is encrypted from when it is sent until it is received.
This method is the most secure, but also the hardest to implement and manage.
* Gateway to Endpoint: In this
model, there is a server or appliance at the edge of the sender's network that
encrypts the e-mail as it leaves the company. This Sender may not even be aware
that the e-mail is encrypted as it requires no extra action, the only extra
work is on the recipient.
* Gateway to Gateway: This
model is ideal as there is no extra work for the sender or recipient, but to
accomplish this model, you have to implement the compatible
Spring 2012
solution on both sides, which
in many cases is not possible, especially in a client-service model.
* Gateway to Web: This model is
probably the most popular model, as it creates an e-mail as composed and a file
is attached to it. The file is stripped off and stored on a server in an
encrypted vault. The recipient receives the e-mail, which now contains a URL
pointing to the file on the secure server. After an authentication process, the
person outside the company can download the file. Typically with this method
the file is only saved on the secure server for a short period of time, and the
file has to be resent if the email is not retrieved within that time. This
solution also solves size limitation issues on e-mails as the e-mail systems do
not see the secured file as an attachment.
