APACHE WEB SERVER
Apache Web Server
Apache is generally recognized as the world's most popular Web server
(HTTP server). Originally designed for Unix servers, the Apache Web server has been ported to
Windows and other network operating systems (NOS). The name "Apache" derives from the
word "patchy" that the Apache developers used to describe early versions of their software.
The Apache Web server provides a full range of Web server features,
including CGI, SSL, and virtual domains. Apache also supports plug-in modules for extensibility.

BENEFITS OF WEB
SERVER
INTRODUCTION TO SECURITY
The protection of information and information systems from
unauthorized access, use, or disruption.
INTERNET
SECURITY
Internet security is a term that describes security for activities and
transactions made over the internet. It’s a particular component of the
larger ideas of cyber security and computer security, involving topics
including browser security, online behavior and network security.
Computer worm: A computer worm is a software program that copies itself from
one computer to the next. It does not require human interaction to create these
copies and can spread rapidly and in great volume.
Spam: Spam refers to unwanted messages in your email inbox. In some cases, spam
can simply include junk mail that advertises goods or services you aren't interested
in. These are usually considered harmless, but some can include links that will install
malicious software on your computer if they're clicked on.
IDENTIFIYING NETWORK
STATIONS
In an internet, networks are numbered and, within
each network, each network interface is numbered. Hence, it is possible to
identify each network station (computer) with at least one number which consists
of the network number followed by the interface number. This number is known
as the IP (Internet Protocol) number of the station. Stations which have more
than one network interface will have more than one IP number and have the
potential of forwarding packets of information from one network to another.
Messages are sent from one station to another station using message formats
consisting of a pair of items; (message-header, message-data).
