We are all somewhat familiar with Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPSs). But what is all this talk of Web Application Firewalls (WAFs)? What is a Web Application Firewall and how does it differ from an IPS? First, let’s take a quick look at Intrusion Prevention, its benefits and some short-comings. Then we will discuss WAFs and how they differ from and augment IPSs.

Twee belangrijke zaken om rekening mee te houden voor de uitvoer:
1. Admin user is op basis van DisplayName in het geval van spaties quoten gebruiken “ …”
2. Het script kijkt naar de default OU’s voor zowel user als het aanmaken van de computer in de AD. (Default OU Users OU Computers) zorg dat de Admin gebruiker daar staat.
Start nu een elevated cmd:
Cd c:\temp
C:\temp> CreateComputerAccount.vbs <nieuwe computer account> <pwd account> <FQDN> <Domeincontroller> <Admin user> <admin user pwd>
Security advies:
NTLM aanpassingen in de locale security policys op de DC: (bv: auditing en ntlmv2)

sh runn timeout (check default timeout settings)

access-list oracle-1521 permit tcp host 10.26.x.x host 10.25.x.x (or make the access-list specific for a certain protocol)

class-map oracle-1521
match access-list oracle-1521
exit

policy-map global_policy
class oracle-1521
set connection timeout tcp 0:0:0 reset (setting no timeout for the specific access-list, DCD will determine with probes if the session needs to be torn down)
