These are very broad questions that will take some time and
research on your part. You could start with

http://www.csl.sri.com/neumann/

which is Peter Neumann's page which has a lot of relevant links, including
information on how to obtain and read back articles of a moderated
newsgroup called RISKS. You should read through a few back issues of
those to get a sense of what current risks are on the internet.

A useful collection of links is at

http://www.cs.purdue.edu/coast

The Purdue page holds the largest collection of security tools, papers, links,
info, you name it!

http://www.cert.org
will tell you about recent computer security incidents on the internet.
CERT studies internet vulnerabilities and issues alerts and patches.
