Joseph was the Web site administrator for the Mason Insurance in New York, who's main
Web site was located at www.masonins.com. Joseph uses his laptop computer regularly to
administer the Web site. One night, Joseph received an urgent phone call from his friend,
Smith. According to Smith, the main Mason Insurance web site had been vandalized! All of
its normal content was removed and replaced with an attacker's message ''Hacker
Message: You are dead! Freaks!” From his office, which was directly connected to Mason
Insurance's internal network, Joseph surfed to the Web site using his laptop. In his

the problem. The Web site appeared defaced when his friend visited using his DSL
connection. So, while Smith and his friend could see the defaced page, Joseph saw the
intact Mason Insurance web site. To help make sense of this problem, Joseph decided to
access the Web site using hisdial-up ISP. He disconnected his laptop from the corporate
internal network and used his modem to dial up the same ISP used by Smith. After his
modem connected, he quickly typed www.masonins.com in his browser to reveal the
following web page:
After seeing the defaced Web site, he disconnected his dial-up line, reconnected to the
internal network, and used Secure Shell (SSH) to log in directly to the Web server. He ran
