security issues in TCP/IP

write the paper about past security issues in TCP/IP version 4, or how these issues have been addressed with TCP/IP version 6. You can write a generic paper that covers the most important issues or a paper that details the cause and effect of just one security issue related to the protocol suite. Example Topics 1. Security Problems in the TCP/IP Protocol Suite 2. IPv6 Security Overview a. Security improvements over IPv4 b. Concerns, Potential Threats and Measures 3. Explain basic concepts and principles for maintaining computer and network security. 4. Explain the anatomy of an IP attack. 5. Explain and recognize common points of attacks inherent in TCP/IP architecture 6. How will old and new hardware be affected by the use of both IPv4 and IPv6 on your network? What will you have to do to secure both versions at the same time? 7. Prevent TCP/IP processing, trusted vs. nontrusted processes or daemons 8. Protect system resources when you allow TCP/IP applications to run on your system. 9. Components utilized to enhance TCP/IP Security a. Packet Rules b. HTTP Proxy Server c. VPN (Virtual Private Networking) d. SSL (Secure Socket Layer) e. SSH (Secure Shell) 10. Security considerations for point to point protocol a. DHCP server b. TFTP or FTP server c. REXEC Server d. RouteD e. DNS Server f. HTTP Server 11. TCP/IPv6 and IPSec a. Authentication HeaderEncapsulating Security Payload Header 12. Any new and emerging attacks that you have read or heard about
