Internet service providers are often called gatekeepers, the companies that open up the online world to a computer user. It is this very role, however, that has placed them in an uncomfortable position in a post-Sept. 11 world. As law-enforcement authorities ratchet up efforts to track and combat terrorist and other criminal activity online, ISPs are walking a treacherous tightrope between complying with international privacy laws and meeting investigators' mounting requests for information.

Within research under way in the Defense Department, backup and recovery efforts take the form of self-healing systems. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is focusing on the concept in its Hierarchical Adaptive Control for Quality of Service Intrusion Tolerance (HACQSIT) initiative. The HACQIT architecture calls for critical applications to run on separate local-area networks, isolated by an out-of-band computer - one that is outside the primary system - with monitoring, control and fault diagnosis software.
