I am seeking work experience with a firm in Sydney, Australia who is involved with computer networks, particularly in the field of network security...:-) I have a passion for network security and that is the direction that I want to end up going. I go to the University of Sydney studying Telecommunications Engineering combined with Commerce, however I only go to uni 24 hours a week, leaving me plenty of other time to attend a job, especially on weekends. As the University is based near the CBD it would be extremely convenient if the firm was located somewhere in this area, although I am very flexible. I would be more than happy to work at no charge for a few weeks on a trial basis, if there was a view to future permanent part-time employment. Any network security based role would be greatly appreciated.
My skills are as follows: - set up a Windows 2000 network consisting of 3 domains and about 10 client computers - set up several SQL 2000 servers and connected clients - set up a IIS webserver hosting several different websites and using ASP pages to access the SQL server databases - Assessed a network to isolate the exact commands where ASP pages were taking significant amounts of time due to excessive and incorrect database retrieval calls using various network monitoring tools. - Set up a firewall and internet sharing gateway on several Windows versions (95, 98, 2000) - Am experienced with Linux, including setting up firewalls and dealing with proxy and DNS servers. - Connected Windows 95, 98, 2000 and Redhat 7.2 terminals to share files and an internet connection over the network. - Created a remote dial-in server enabling the user to access the internet and network files from home. - Have used many Linux network tools such as Ethereal and Nmap. - Am familiar with protocols such as DNS, WINS, DHCP, TCP/IP, SMTP etc. - I am a extremely competent Java programmer and can also program in BASIC. - Am very familiar with most Microsoft products and their many "features" ;-) - I am involved in the University Computer Science Society writing and editing technical articles. - Have dealt with penetration attempts and virus infections. - Understand the technical aspects of many attacks, including buffer overflows and DoS attacks. If this sounds mildly interesting please contact me by email at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I can provide several references if required. Thank you for your time, -Scott.
