For one-semester courses on Network Security for computer science, engineering, and CIS majors.

This text provides a practical, up-to-date, and comprehensive survey of network-based and Internet-based security applications and standards. It includes a concise treatment of the discipline of cryptography, covering algorithms and protocols underlying network security applications, encryption, hash functions, digital signatures, and key exchange.

Features

  • Up-to-date treatment of Web security discusses the two most important Web security standards–SSL/TLS and SET.
  • Unified presentation of intruders and viruses shows students the distinct threats and similarities of hackers and viruses, in order to promote a greater understanding of both topics.
  • Coverage of both PGP and S/MIME for electronic mail security familiarizes students with the two most important approaches to e-mail security, enabling them to gain an understanding of both schemes at a detailed technical level.
  • Treatment of firewalls explores this integral part of any network security capability.
  • Concise overview of cryptography, authentication, and digital signatures gives students a solid yet concise look at the fundamental algorithms and techniques underlying network security.
  • Chapter-end homework problems introduce students to new concepts and techniques, and reinforce material in the text with more than 100 problems.
  • Optional research projects guide students, via a series of assignments, through researching a particular topic on the Internet and writing a report.
  • Optional programming projects enable students to cover a broad range of topics and implement them in any suitable language on any platform.
  • Reading/Report assignments direct students to read and then write a short report on an assigned paper listed in the literature.
  • Internet mailing list enables instructors using the text to exchange information, suggestions, and questions with each other and the author.
  • Accessible presentation of authentication tools and applications includes Kerberos and X.509v3 digital certificates.
