    Hi all,

    I am new to this list, and I am working on fire wall
    vulnerabilities.
    I strongly believe that fire walls are not enough
    today against increasingly sophisticated attackers.
    I have done research into IP fragmentation attacks and
    I am implementing test programs based on such data.
    see:
    http://www.zvon.org/tmRFC/RFC1858/Output/chapter2.html.

    But I still believe that other vulnerabilities may
    still exist, as they say security is a continous
    process.
    I hope to compile a paper detailing the procedures and
    results of my research, and I would really appreciate
    any pointers to current infomation/papers or advice.

    I will be grateful for any help rendered.
    Thank you.

    Edward
