Public Sticky notes
This paper does not cover procedures for securing a machine that is
already on a network. As a rule, no machine should be placed on any network
prior to its having been secured against local and remote attack. If a
machine has already been compromised, none of the following procedures will
improve the system's security. In most cases, depending on the skill of the
intruder, the machine will likely already be trojaned or backdoored. Applying
the following security procedures on such a machine would only provide a
false sense of security.
