Intrusion Detection
They come in any way they can. They will scan all ports to find out what is open. they will attack your webserver with every know vulnerability, the will brut force password protected accounts, they will try every thing they can to get into your network.
But you can keep them out. There are many things you can do to protect your network and keep intruders from acquiring your data, reading your mail, or destroying your files.
The first line of defense is a firewall. This will block all ports by default and then you can allow certion ones opened that you choose, and with some equipment you can specify more detail security on such ports. Better firewalls will let you shift the port off of the standard port so the intruder doesnt readily know what protocol to use. Some will allow only certiian people or locations to connect, and on others you can even specify what time windows to allow such connections.
Next, there are smarter components, routers and firewalls, that look deeper into the data that moves accross thier barriers. Those that do stateful packet inspection can determine, in many cases, if the traffic on the network is of a known malicious source or type of virus, worm, or hack attempt.
Logging and auditing machine access, account access, and file access of particularly sensitive data can help in determining if there have been any attempts ot comprimise your security. Other features of operating systems include login time ranges, login fail account lockout or timeout. multiple layers of passwords and encryption, as well as live network monitoring for suspicious behavior.
