| Abstract | There are numerous network security and access control issues to be considered when implementing a client/server system. As the server is usually the central location for critical data, adequate physical security and operational security measures need to be taken to insure the safety of the data. Although there are a large number of tools available to perform security and control functions on mainframe systems, there are significantly less tools available that are designed specifically for client/server systems. Until these tools are developed, companies must exercise extreme caution when placing mission critical applications on a client/server system. The end-user computing evolution provided computing power at the workplace, and resulted in end-user demand for access to corporate data with little regard for the security of that data.
