Re: Domino ID Files Best Practices

Sean,

Your uses have access to the NAB via Notes.  Unless of course you make 
them store all their coworkers email addresses in their local address 
books and do not allow lookups in the NAB.  Thus they can read the NAB and 
then detach the ID file, eh?

Re: Domino ID Files Best Practices










C +API tool to hack a notes id? LOL.....  That tool does a dictionary
attack.

Nothing special about that. The only thing is special is they bypassed the
time-out.

What security does the user ID have to the system? Say an Admin ID?

I would be interested in seeing how you can get the NAB off of the server
if you do not have access to the server.
The owner of all of objects is QNOTES. Kind of hard to get the file to 
pull
the id out of it. I also am using encrypted NABs
on my mail servers as well so even if you got the NAB you could not open 
it
with another notes client.

The NAB on my servers is not accessible from the web,  default and
anonymous is NO ACCESS. We don't store IDs there anyway.
We store them elsewhere and of course on the PCs with the notes client,
such as my admin id on the PC I am using to
compose this email. So if you hacked my Windows Laptop then stole my id,
would it not be Windows Security that is the issue?
The only way to get and ID  is via a Microsoft Windows Hack to steal the 
ID
off of a PC. Then run this PASSWARE tool
to hack the id password.

The answer would be not to use Windows and notes IDs? That would not be
practical.

Don't keep IDs on computers anywhere? That would not be practical.

No networked computers works as well ala "Battle Star Gallactica"????  We
all know we can do anything without networking..............

lf you are concerned about notes id security then the  answer is to not
have the notes IDs stored anywhere, and use a smartcard or biometric id
instead of a standard notes id. If your NAB is secured properly it is much
safer than on a Windows File Server or on a Windows PC...........

Here are some products that add that extra layer of ID security. Notes
supports smart cards and Bio-Metic ID systems.

ActivCard Gold 2.2 product
Gemplus 3.1 product
Gemplus 2.0 product
Rainbow iKey 2032 product
Schlumberger Cyberflex 4 product
