Hi,
The most common attack types and worms exploit known vulnerabilities are
listed on http://www.sans.org/top20/ - also there is a section at the bottom
detailing which ports to block on the firewall. Although it is far better to
deny all which is not specifically allowed by the firewall as opposed to
individually blocking specific ports.
Hope this helps.

Subject: most avtive attack type
Hello everyone,
I was wondering what the most common type of attack to expect to get hit
with over a network is.
I will be protecting a MS based network.
The other thing i was thinking is in this senerao what type of attacks
should you be watching out for?
senerao: Small TCP/IP network (sub 6 pcs) All have the latest MS client or
server OSes fully patched.
IPSec running as a firewall, all trafic monitered/logged, services
configured (and disabled) 1 Software router, 1 Hardware router (firewall
running on each) im thinking thats about it.
Thanks for the help it is greatly apricated
