This paper is the final in a series of papers that describe a new plug-in for enabling the integration of the IntelliJ IDEA IDE with the JBoss application server. The JBoss plug-in was first conceived and implemented by Martin Fuhrer at Fuhrer Engineering. Parts 1, 2 and 3 discussed how to download and install the plug-in, how to create a project containing a web module, a session bean, a servlet, and an application module for deployment to JBoss. This paper discusses deployment and execution, showing how to create a remote deployment method using SSH Transfer, and a run configuration for both local and remote deployment. 1 PREPARING FOR DEPLOYMENT Without an automated environment, deployment is often a painful process resulting in developers spending a great deal of time performing application deployment tasks. Most organizations strive for better management of this critical phase in the development cycle. By automating these tasks, a team can execute deployment in less time with more repeatable, predictable and measurable results. The IntelliJ IDEA provides built-in deployment support for J2EE applications that we will use via the JBoss plug-in. This integrated deployment environment will allow us to connect to the JBoss application server and copy the application module (the EAR file) to it automatically. For remote deployment, before deploying the application to the JBoss server, you have to create a deployment method. Local deployment is the simplest and does not require any additional setup, but in most environments, the application server resides on a remote THE JBOSS INTEGRATION PLUG-IN FOR INTELLIJ IDEA 12 JOURNAL OF OBJECT TECHNOLOGY VOL. 4, NO. 9 machine. There are several remote deployment methods available. The following deployment methods are available in IntelliJ IDEA via the JBoss plug-in: Local This deployment method is used when the JBoss server is running on the developer’s machine. No additional setup is required. SSH Transfer Provides a secure connection between the local client and a remote host. To make the application accessible by the JBoss server, the EAR file is transferred to the remote machine using an SSH (Secure Shell Client) connection prior to deployment. The SSH connection is using SSH2 with either password or public key authentication. You have to specify a temporary directory on the remote machine where the EAR file is temporarily stored, e.g. /tmp. FTP Transfer This works exactly like the SSH transfer deployment method, but an FTP connection is used to transfer the EAR file instead of an SSH connection. The FTP connection may be either active or passive. Shared Filesystem This may be used when both the local developer’s machine and the remote deployment machine have a common filesystem, e.g. through NFS, Samba, or whatever. You have to specify a local path and a remote path, both pointing to the same shared directory. HTTP Callback With HTTP callback the EAR file isn't transferred to the remote machine, but the JBoss server is told to open an HTTP connection back to the developer’s machine and load the EAR file from there. This implies that the developer’s machine has to be visible by the remote machine, i.e. the developer’s machine may not be connected to the network through DHCP. To create a new SSH Transfer deployment method select the File:Settings menu item to bring up the Settings dialog box. Select the JBoss Plugin control device, as shown in Figure 1.1.

The network management protocol SNMP has its flaws,but it has not solved by itself. So other secure protocol must be borrowed to deal with the flaws of SNMP. It is a good method that the Secure Shell Protocol(SSH) can resolved the flaws of SNMP. In this paper the Secure Shell Security Model is constructed based on the SSH and analyzed its performance, which is good to the network security management.

Communication plays a very important and indeed a crucial part in our daily lives. Electronic mail, data transfer, and the development of the Internet have changed the way the world communicates. As the Internet grows in popularity and therefore also in size, more and more transmissions take place, mainly because the technology is more readily available and applications have become more user friendly, allowing entry to less sophisticated users over a broad spectrum. Intertwined herewith, is the significant increase in business related use and transmission of critical data, ultimately leading to a significant increase in security risks. This has attracted and encouraged the entry of common criminals with a high level of computer based skills. Most data transfers are mainly text based, not secure and vulnerable to various forms of security risks. The open and distributed structure of the Internet has caused this major global security problem - for businesses and the individual. In the case of an individual, a security breach is localised, whereas with businesses the implications are far reaching. Leakage of intellectual property, confidential information and/or financial information could greatly harm businesses and their stakeholders. This presentation looks at a model that uses SSH for securing an insecure channel like Internet, whilst integrating smart cards for client authentication and encryption and decryption of data

Malicious agents increasingly use encrypted tunnels to communicate with external servers. Communications may contain ransomware keys, stolen banking details, or other confidential information. Rapid discovery of communicated contents through decrypting tunnelled traffic can support effective means of dealing with these malicious activities.Decrypting communications requires knowledge of cryptographic algorithms and artefacts, such as encryption keys and initialisation vectors. Such artefacts may exist in volatile memory when software applications encrypt. Virtualisation technologies can enable the acquisition of virtual machine memory to support the discovery of these cryptographic artefacts.A framework is constructed to investigate the decryption of potentially malicious communications using novel approaches to identify candidate initialisation vectors, and use these to discover candidate keys. The framework focuses on communications that use the Secure Shell and Transport Layer Security protocols in virtualised environments for different operating systems, protocols, encryption algorithms, and software implementations. The framework minimises virtual machine impact, and functions at an elevated level to make detection by virtual machine software difficult.The framework analyses Windows and Linux memory and validates decrypts for both protocols when the Advanced Encryption Standard symmetric block or ChaCha20 symmetric stream algorithms are used for encryption. It also investigates communications originating from malware clients, such as bot and ransomware, that use Windows cryptographic libraries.The framework correctly decrypted tunnelled traffic with near certainty in almost all experiments. The analysis durations ranged from sub-second to less than a minute, demonstrating that decryption of malicious activity before network session completion is possible. This can enable in-line detection of unknown malicious agents, timely discovery of ransomware keys, and knowledge of exfiltrated confidential information.
