Principle of Easiest Penetration,An intruder must be expected to use any
available means of penetration,This will not necessarily be the most
obvious means,nor will it necessarily be the one against which the most
solid defense has been installed.
最容易攻破原理 。 入侵者必定要使用一种可以攻破的方法, 这种方法既不
可能是最常用的, 也不可能是针对已经采取了最可靠的防范措施的方法 。
This principle says that computer security specialists must consider all
possible means of penetration,because strengthening one may just make
another means more appealing to intruders,We now consider what these
means of penetration are.

10.1.2 KINDS OF SECURITY BREACHES
In security,an exposure is a form of possible loss or harm in a
computing system; examples of exposures are unauthorized disclosure
of data,modification of data,or denial of legitimate access to
computing, A vulnerability is a weakness in the security system that
might be exploited to cause loss or harm.
在计算机系统中, 暴露是一种使安全完全丧失或受到伤害的一种形式；
暴露的例子是非授权的数据公开, 数据修改或拒绝合法的访问计算机 。
脆弱性是安全系统中的薄弱环节, 它可能引起安全的丧失或伤害 。

10.1.2 KINDS OF SECURITY BREACHES
A human who exploits a vulnerability perpetrates an attack on the system.
Threats to computing systems are circumstances that have the potential
to cause loss or harm; human attacks are examples of threats,as are
natural disasters,inadvertent human errors,and internal hardware or
software flaws,Finally,a control is a protective measure-an action,a
device,a procedure,or a technique-that reduces a vulnerability.
人可利用脆弱性对系统进行罪恶的攻击 。 对计算机系统的威胁是引起安
全丧失或伤害的环境；人们的攻击是威胁的例子, 如自然灾害, 人们非
故意错误和硬件或软件缺陷等 。 最后, 控制是一种保护性措施 —— 控制
可以是一种动作, 一个设备, 一个过程或一种技术 —— 减少了脆弱性 。

10.1.2 KINDS OF SECURITY BREACHES
(1) In an interruption,an asset of the system becomes lost or
unavailable or unusable,An example is malicious destruction
of a hardware device,erasure of a program or data file,or
failure of an operating system file manager so that it cannot
find a particular disk file,
(1)在 中断 情况下, 系统资源开始丢失, 不可用或不能用 。 例
如, 蓄意破坏硬件设备, 抹除程序或数据文件或造成操作系
统的文件管理程序故障, 以致不能找到某一磁盘文件 。

10.1.2 KINDS OF SECURITY BREACHES
(2) An interception means that some unauthorized party has gained access
to an asset,The outside party can be a person,a program,or a computing
system,Examples of this type of failure are illicit copying of program or
data files,or wiretapping to obtain data in a network,While a loss may be
discovered fairly quickly,a silent interceptor may leave no traces by
which the interception can be readily detected.
(2)截取 是指某一非特许用户掌握了访问资源的权利 。 外界用户可以是
一个人, 一个程序或一个计算机系统 。 这种威胁的例子如程序或数据文
件的非法拷贝, 或私自接线入网去获取数据 。 数据丢失可能会很快被发
现, 但很可能截取者并不留下任何容易检测的痕迹 。

10.1.2 KINDS OF SECURITY BREACHES
(3) If an unauthorized party not only accesses but tampers with an asset,
the failure becomes a modification,For example,someone might modify
the values in a database,alter a program so that it performs an additional
computation,or modify data being transmitted electronically,It is even
possible for hardware to be modified,Some cases of modification can be
detected with simple measures,while other more subtle changes may be
almost impossible to detect,
(3)如果非授权用户不仅可以访问计算机资源，而且可以篡改资源，则威
胁就成为 修改 了。例如，某人可以修改数据库中的值,更换一个程序，
以便完成另外的计算，或修改正在传送的数据,甚至还 可能修改硬件。
某些情况下可以用简单的测量手段检测 出所做的修改，但某些微妙的
修改是不可能检测出来的。

10.1.2 KINDS OF SECURITY BREACHES
(4) Finally,an unauthorized party might fabricate counterfeit
objects for a computing system,The intruder may wish to add
spurious transactions to a network communication system,or add
records to an existing data base, Sometimes these additions can be
detected as forgeries,but if skillfully done,they are virtually
indistinguishable from the real thing.
(4)最后, 非授权用户可以 伪造 计算机系统的一些对象 。 入侵者
妄图向网络通信系统加入一个假的事务处理业务, 或向现有的数
据库加入记录 。 有时, 这些增加的数据可以作为伪造品检测出来,
但如果做得很巧妙, 这些数据实际上无法与真正的数据分开 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
If the receiver of the encrypted data wants to read the original data,the
receiver must convert it back to the original through a process called
decryption,Decryption is the inverse of the encryption process,In order to
perform the decryption,the receiver must be in possession of a special piece of
data called the key.
如果接收到加密数据的人要看原来的数据, 就必须把数据转换为原来
的形式, 这个过程称为 解密 。 解密是加密过程的逆过程 。 为了进行解密, 接
收者必须有称为密钥的特殊数据 。
The two main competing cryptography schemes are known as the
secret-key (symmetric) system and the public-key (asymmetric) system,The
secret-key system uses a single,wholly secret sequence both to encrypt and to
decrypt messages,The public-key system uses a pair of mathematically related
sequences,one each for encryption and decryption [1].
现在有两种主要的, 相互竞争的密码术：秘钥 （ 对称 ） 和公钥 （ 不对

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
Secret-key encryption
One of the most popular secret-key encryption schemes is IBM’s Data
Encryption System (DES),which became the U.S,federal standard in 1997.
the standard form uses a 56-bit key to encrypt 64-bit data blocks.
The following is a notation for relating plaintext,ciphertext,and keys,We will
use C=E k (P) to mean that the encryption of the plaintext P using key k gives
the ciphertext C,similarly,P=D k (C) represents of decryption of C to get the
plaintext again,It then follows that D k ( E k (P))=P
密钥加密
IBM的数据加密系统 (DES)是最流行的密钥加密方案之一 。 1977年, 该方案成
为美国联邦标准 。 该标准形式采用 56位的密钥对 64位的数据块进行加密 。
下面是有关明文, 密文和密钥关系的表示法 。 我们用 C=E k (P)表示用密钥 K
对明文 P加密, 得到密文 C。 类似的, P=D k (C)代表对 C解密得到明文 。 因而
遵循,D k (E k (P))=P

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
DES has been studied by many of the world’s leading
cryptographers,but no weaknesses have been uncovered,To crack
a DES-encrypted message a hacker or commercial spy would need
to try 255 possible keys,This type of search would need days of
computer time on the world’s fastest supercomputers,Even then,
the message may not be cracked if the plaintext is not easily
understood [2].
为了打开一个 DES加密的报文, 黑客或商业间谍需要试验 255种可
能的密钥, 这种搜索在世界上最快的巨型机上也需好几天的计算
机时间 。 如果未加密的, 明文, 是不易理解的, 即使算出报文也
可能解不开 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
Developers using DES can improve security by changing the keys
frequently,using temporary session keys,or using triple-
encryption DES,With triple DES,each 64-bit block is encrypted
under three different DES keys,Recent research has confirmed
that triple-DES is indeed more secure than single-DES,The User
Data Masking Encryption Facility is an export-grade algorithm
substituted for DES in several IBM products,such as the
Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) [3].
使用 DES的开发人员可以通过频繁更改密钥, 使用临时的会话密
钥或使用三重加密 DES来提高安全性 。 使用三重 DES时, 每个 64
位数据块用三种不同的 DES密钥加密 。 最新研究已确认三重 DES
确实比单重 DES更安全 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
Public-key encryption
The key distribution problem has always been the weak link in
the secret-key systems,Since the encryption key and decryption
key are the same( or easily derived from one another) and the
key has to be distributed to all users of the system,it seemd as if
there was an inherent built-in problem,keys had to be protected
from theft,but they also had to be distributed,so they could not
just be locked up in a bank vault.
公钥加密
密钥的分布问题在秘钥系统中一直是一个薄弱环节 。 因为加密
密钥和解密密钥是相同的 （ 或彼此容易推出来 ） 并且这个密钥
必须分配给该秘钥系统的所有用户, 这好像是存在一个固有的
内部问题, 必须保护密钥不被偷窃, 但又必须分布出去, 所以
它们不可能只是锁在银行的地下室里 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
Encryption can be used to protect data in transit as well as data in
storage,Some vendors provide hardware encryption devices that
can be used to encrypt and decrypt data,There are also software
encryption packages which are available either commercially or as
free software.
加密可以用来保护传输中的数据和存储器中的数据 。 一些厂家提
供硬件加密设备, 用来加密和解密数据 。 也可买到软件加密程序
包或作为自由软件免费获得 。
Encryption can be defined as the process of tasking information
that exists in some readable form (plaintext) and converting it into
a form (ciphertext) so that it cannot be understood by others.
加密 可以定义为把现有的, 以某种可读形式 （ 明文 ） 的信息转换
成其他人不能理解的形式 （ 密文 ） 的过程 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
In public key cryptosystem,the encryption and decryption keys were
different,and plaintext encrypted with the public key can only be deciphered
with the private key from the same pair,Conversely,plaintext encrypted
with the private key can be decrypted only with the public key[4] ( it is used
in electronic signatures),The notations for these are as follows.
C=E k (P),P=D k1(C)=D k1 (E k (P)) or
C=D k1 (P),P=E k (C)=E k (D k1 (P))
在公钥秘钥系统中, 加密和解密密钥是不同的 。 并且用公开密钥加密的明文只能用
同一对密钥中的秘密密钥解密 。 相反, 用私有密钥加密的明文只能用公开密钥解密
（ 它用于电子签名 ） 。 这些关系的表示法如下,(见上式 ）
Here k is a public key and k1 is private key( or secret key),Users can make their
public keys freely available or place them at a key distribution center for others to
access,However,the private key must be kept safe,In public-key systems there is no
need to find a safe channel for communicating a shared secret key.
这里 K是公开密钥, K1是私有密钥 （ 或秘密密钥 ） 。 用户可以让他们的公开密钥自
由地使用, 或把它们放在密钥分配中心供其他人存取 。 然而, 私有密钥必须安全的
保存 。 在公开密钥系统, 无需找一条传送共享的私有密钥的安全通道 。

10.3 How Firewalls Work
Basically,a firewall is a barrier to keep destructive forces away from
your property,In fact,that’s why it’s called a firewall,Its job is similar to a
physical firewall that keeps a fire from spreading from one area to the next.
实质上, 防火墙就是一个屏障, 保护私有财产不受破坏 。 事实上, 这
就是它被称为防火墙的原因 。 它的作用类似于一堵防止火灾从一处蔓延到
另一处的实实在在的防火墙 。
What it does
A firewall is simply a program or hardware device that filters the
information coming through the Internet connection into your private
network or computer system,If an incoming packet of information is
flagged by the filters,it is not allowed through.
防火墙做什么
一个防火墙就是一个程序或者一台硬件设备, 用于过滤通过 Internet连接
进入你的专用网或计算机系统中的信息 。 如果一个输入的信息包被过滤器
做了标记, 它就不允许通过 。
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-26
10.3 How Firewalls Work
Firewalls use one or more of three methods to control traffic flowing in and
out of the network:
(1) Packet filtering,Packets (small chunks of data) are analyzed against a
set of filters,Packets that make it through the filters are sent to the
requesting system and all others are discarded.
(2) Proxy service,Information from the Internet is retrieved by the firewall
and then sent to the requesting system and vice versa.
防火墙使用下列三种方法之一或几种来控制进出网络的通信：
（ 1） 数据包过滤：数据包 （ 小块数据 ） 由一组过滤器进行分析 。 能通过
过滤器的数据包被发送到发出请求的系统, 其它的被丢弃 。
（ 2） 代理服务：来自 Internet的信息通过防火墙进行检索, 然后发送到
提出请求的系统, 反之亦然 。
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-27
(3) Stateful inspection,A newer method that doesn’t examine the
contents of each packet but instead compares certain key parts of the
packet to a database of trusted information,Information traveling from
inside the firewall to the outside is monitored for specific defining
characteristics,then incoming information is compared to these
characteristics,If the comparison yields a reasonable match,the
information is allowed through,Otherwise it is discarded.
（ 3） 状态检查：一种更新的方法, 并不检查每个数据包的内容, 而是
将数据包的某个关键部分与一个可信的信息数据库比较 。 从防火墙内
部传输到外部的信息可根据特别规定的特性进行监控, 然后将输入信
息与这些特性相比较, 若生成一个合理的匹配, 则信息允许通过, 否
则就丢弃 。
10.3 How Firewalls Work
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-28
The level of security you establish will determine how many of these threats
can be stopped by your firewall,The highest level of security would be to
simply block everything,Obviously that defeats the purpose of having an
Internet connection,But a common rule of thumb[3 is to block everything,
then begin to select what types of traffic you will allow,You can also restrict
traffic that travels through the firewall so that only certain types of
information,such as e-mail,can get through,For most of us,it is probably
better to work with the defaults provides by the firewall developer unless
there is a specific reason to change it.
你所设定的安全级别将决定这些威胁有多少能够被你的防火墙所阻止 。 最
高安全级别就是阻断一切 。 很显然, 这就失去了进行 Internet连接的意义 。
但通常的经验做法是阻断一切, 然后, 开始选择你将允许什么类型的通信 。
你还可以限制通过防火墙的通信, 以便只有几种信息通过, 如电子邮件 。
对我们大多数人来说, 除非有特殊的理由要改变它, 否则最好在防火墙开
发商提供的默认条件下工作 。
10.3 How Firewalls Work
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-29
One of the best things about a firewall from a security standpoint is
that it stops anyone on the outside from logging onto a computer in
your private network,While this is a big deal[4] for businesses,most
home networks will probably not be threatened in this manner.
从 安全的角度来看, 防火墙的一个优点就是它能阻止任何外来人登
录到专用网中的一台计算机上, 这对企业很重要, 大多数家庭网
在这种方式下可以不受威胁 。

of a hardware device,erasure of a program or data file,or
failure of an operating system file manager so that it cannot
find a particular disk file,
(1)在 中断 情况下, 系统资源开始丢失, 不可用或不能用 。 例
如, 蓄意破坏硬件设备, 抹除程序或数据文件或造成操作系
统的文件管理程序故障, 以致不能找到某一磁盘文件 。

(2) An interception means that some unauthorized party has gained access
to an asset,The outside party can be a person,a program,or a computing
system,Examples of this type of failure are illicit copying of program or
data files,or wiretapping to obtain data in a network,While a loss may be
discovered fairly quickly,a silent interceptor may leave no traces by
which the interception can be readily detected.
(2)截取 是指某一非特许用户掌握了访问资源的权利 。 外界用户可以是
一个人, 一个程序或一个计算机系统 。 这种威胁的例子如程序或数据文
件的非法拷贝, 或私自接线入网去获取数据 。 数据丢失可能会很快被发
现, 但很可能截取者并不留下任何容易检测的痕迹 。

(3) If an unauthorized party not only accesses but tampers with an asset,
the failure becomes a modification,For example,someone might modify
the values in a database,alter a program so that it performs an additional
computation,or modify data being transmitted electronically,It is even
possible for hardware to be modified,Some cases of modification can be
detected with simple measures,while other more subtle changes may be
almost impossible to detect,
(3)如果非授权用户不仅可以访问计算机资源，而且可以篡改资源，则威
胁就成为 修改 了。例如，某人可以修改数据库中的值,更换一个程序，
以便完成另外的计算，或修改正在传送的数据,甚至还 可能修改硬件。
某些情况下可以用简单的测量手段检测 出所做的修改，但某些微妙的
修改是不可能检测出来的。

(4) Finally,an unauthorized party might fabricate counterfeit
objects for a computing system,The intruder may wish to add
spurious transactions to a network communication system,or add
records to an existing data base, Sometimes these additions can be
detected as forgeries,but if skillfully done,they are virtually
indistinguishable from the real thing.
(4)最后, 非授权用户可以 伪造 计算机系统的一些对象 。 入侵者
妄图向网络通信系统加入一个假的事务处理业务, 或向现有的数
据库加入记录 。 有时, 这些增加的数据可以作为伪造品检测出来,
但如果做得很巧妙, 这些数据实际上无法与真正的数据分开 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
If the receiver of the encrypted data wants to read the original data,the
receiver must convert it back to the original through a process called
decryption,Decryption is the inverse of the encryption process,In order to
perform the decryption,the receiver must be in possession of a special piece of
data called the key.
如果接收到加密数据的人要看原来的数据, 就必须把数据转换为原来
的形式, 这个过程称为 解密 。 解密是加密过程的逆过程 。 为了进行解密, 接
收者必须有称为密钥的特殊数据 。
The two main competing cryptography schemes are known as the
secret-key (symmetric) system and the public-key (asymmetric) system,The
secret-key system uses a single,wholly secret sequence both to encrypt and to
decrypt messages,The public-key system uses a pair of mathematically related
sequences,one each for encryption and decryption [1].

Secret-key encryption
One of the most popular secret-key encryption schemes is IBM’s Data
Encryption System (DES),which became the U.S,federal standard in 1997.
the standard form uses a 56-bit key to encrypt 64-bit data blocks.
The following is a notation for relating plaintext,ciphertext,and keys,We will
use C=E k (P) to mean that the encryption of the plaintext P using key k gives
the ciphertext C,similarly,P=D k (C) represents of decryption of C to get the
plaintext again,It then follows that D k ( E k (P))=P
密钥加密
IBM的数据加密系统 (DES)是最流行的密钥加密方案之一 。 1977年, 该方案成
为美国联邦标准 。 该标准形式采用 56位的密钥对 64位的数据块进行加密 。
下面是有关明文, 密文和密钥关系的表示法 。 我们用 C=E k (P)表示用密钥 K
对明文 P加密, 得到密文 C。 类似的, P=D k (C)代表对 C解密得到明文 。 因而
遵循,D k (E k (P))=P

DES has been studied by many of the world’s leading
cryptographers,but no weaknesses have been uncovered,To crack
a DES-encrypted message a hacker or commercial spy would need
to try 255 possible keys,This type of search would need days of
computer time on the world’s fastest supercomputers,Even then,
the message may not be cracked if the plaintext is not easily
understood [2].
为了打开一个 DES加密的报文, 黑客或商业间谍需要试验 255种可

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
Developers using DES can improve security by changing the keys
frequently,using temporary session keys,or using triple-
encryption DES,With triple DES,each 64-bit block is encrypted
under three different DES keys,Recent research has confirmed
that triple-DES is indeed more secure than single-DES,The User
Data Masking Encryption Facility is an export-grade algorithm
substituted for DES in several IBM products,such as the
Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) [3].
使用 DES的开发人员可以通过频繁更改密钥, 使用临时的会话密

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
Public-key encryption
The key distribution problem has always been the weak link in
the secret-key systems,Since the encryption key and decryption
key are the same( or easily derived from one another) and the
key has to be distributed to all users of the system,it seemd as if
there was an inherent built-in problem,keys had to be protected
from theft,but they also had to be distributed,so they could not
just be locked up in a bank vault.
公钥加密
密钥的分布问题在秘钥系统中一直是一个薄弱环节 。 因为加密
密钥和解密密钥是相同的 （ 或彼此容易推出来 ） 并且这个密钥
必须分配给该秘钥系统的所有用户, 这好像是存在一个固有的
内部问题, 必须保护密钥不被偷窃, 但又必须分布出去, 所以
它们不可能只是锁在银行的地下室里 。

10.2 Modern Cryptography- Data Encryption
In public key cryptosystem,the encryption and decryption keys were
different,and plaintext encrypted with the public key can only be deciphered
with the private key from the same pair,Conversely,plaintext encrypted
with the private key can be decrypted only with the public key[4] ( it is used
in electronic signatures),The notations for these are as follows.
C=E k (P),P=D k1(C)=D k1 (E k (P)) or
C=D k1 (P),P=E k (C)=E k (D k1 (P))
在公钥秘钥系统中, 加密和解密密钥是不同的 。 并且用公开密钥加密的明文只能用
同一对密钥中的秘密密钥解密 。 相反, 用私有密钥加密的明文只能用公开密钥解密
（ 它用于电子签名 ） 。 这些关系的表示法如下,(见上式 ）
Here k is a public key and k1 is private key( or secret key),Users can make their
public keys freely available or place them at a key distribution center for others to
access,However,the private key must be kept safe,In public-key systems there is no
need to find a safe channel for communicating a shared secret key.
这里 K是公开密钥, K1是私有密钥 （ 或秘密密钥 ） 。 用户可以让他们的公开密钥自
由地使用, 或把它们放在密钥分配中心供其他人存取 。 然而, 私有密钥必须安全的
保存 。 在公开密钥系统, 无需找一条传送共享的私有密钥的安全通道 。

10.3 How Firewalls Work
Basically,a firewall is a barrier to keep destructive forces away from
your property,In fact,that’s why it’s called a firewall,Its job is similar to a
physical firewall that keeps a fire from spreading from one area to the next.
实质上, 防火墙就是一个屏障, 保护私有财产不受破坏 。 事实上, 这
就是它被称为防火墙的原因 。 它的作用类似于一堵防止火灾从一处蔓延到
另一处的实实在在的防火墙 。
What it does
A firewall is simply a program or hardware device that filters the
information coming through the Internet connection into your private
network or computer system,If an incoming packet of information is
flagged by the filters,it is not allowed through.
防火墙做什么
一个防火墙就是一个程序或者一台硬件设备, 用于过滤通过 Internet连接
进入你的专用网或计算机系统中的信息 。 如果一个输入的信息包被过滤器
做了标记, 它就不允许通过 。
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-26
10.3 How Firewalls Work
Firewalls use one or more of three methods to control traffic flowing in and
out of the network:
(1) Packet filtering,Packets (small chunks of data) are analyzed against a
set of filters,Packets that make it through the filters are sent to the
requesting system and all others are discarded.
(2) Proxy service,Information from the Internet is retrieved by the firewall
and then sent to the requesting system and vice versa.
防火墙使用下列三种方法之一或几种来控制进出网络的通信：
（ 1） 数据包过滤：数据包 （ 小块数据 ） 由一组过滤器进行分析 。 能通过
过滤器的数据包被发送到发出请求的系统, 其它的被丢弃 。
（ 2） 代理服务：来自 Internet的信息通过防火墙进行检索, 然后发送到
提出请求的系统, 反之亦然 。
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-27
(3) Stateful inspection,A newer method that doesn’t examine the
contents of each packet but instead compares certain key parts of the
packet to a database of trusted information,Information traveling from
inside the firewall to the outside is monitored for specific defining
characteristics,then incoming information is compared to these
characteristics,If the comparison yields a reasonable match,the
information is allowed through,Otherwise it is discarded.
（ 3） 状态检查：一种更新的方法, 并不检查每个数据包的内容, 而是
将数据包的某个关键部分与一个可信的信息数据库比较 。 从防火墙内
部传输到外部的信息可根据特别规定的特性进行监控, 然后将输入信
息与这些特性相比较, 若生成一个合理的匹配, 则信息允许通过, 否
则就丢弃 。
10.3 How Firewalls Work
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-28
The level of security you establish will determine how many of these threats
can be stopped by your firewall,The highest level of security would be to
simply block everything,Obviously that defeats the purpose of having an
Internet connection,But a common rule of thumb[3 is to block everything,
then begin to select what types of traffic you will allow,You can also restrict
traffic that travels through the firewall so that only certain types of
information,such as e-mail,can get through,For most of us,it is probably
better to work with the defaults provides by the firewall developer unless
there is a specific reason to change it.
你所设定的安全级别将决定这些威胁有多少能够被你的防火墙所阻止 。 最
高安全级别就是阻断一切 。 很显然, 这就失去了进行 Internet连接的意义 。
但通常的经验做法是阻断一切, 然后, 开始选择你将允许什么类型的通信 。
你还可以限制通过防火墙的通信, 以便只有几种信息通过, 如电子邮件 。
对我们大多数人来说, 除非有特殊的理由要改变它, 否则最好在防火墙开
发商提供的默认条件下工作 。
10.3 How Firewalls Work
Chapter 10 Computer and Network Security
计算机专业英语 10-29
One of the best things about a firewall from a security standpoint is
that it stops anyone on the outside from logging onto a computer in
your private network,While this is a big deal[4] for businesses,most
home networks will probably not be threatened in this manner.
从 安全的角度来看, 防火墙的一个优点就是它能阻止任何外来人登
录到专用网中的一台计算机上, 这对企业很重要, 大多数家庭网
在这种方式下可以不受威胁 。

名词词组 +介词词组 。 间或也用一个疑问句作标题 (多用在人文社会科学领
域 ),但一般不用陈述句或动词词组作标题 。
一, 名词性词组
名词性词组由名词及其修饰语构成 。 名词的修饰语可以是形容词, 介词
短语, 有时也可以是另一个名词 。 名词修饰名词时, 往往可以缩短标题
的长度 。 以下各标题分别由两个名词词组构成 。 例如：
Latent demand and the browsing shopper (名词词组 +名词词组 )
Cost and productivity (名词 +名词 )
