Contemporary societies have increasing dependence on computers and
computer networks, and the increasing popularity of mobile
computing, have given rise to numerous computer security problems.
Yet despite a high proliferation of expert remedies, a viable and
comprehensive solution to these security issues remains elusive,
and society continues to suffer at the hands of cyber criminals,
vandals and hackers.
This authoritative Guide to Computer Network Security explores
computer network infrastructures and protocol design security
flaws, and discusses current security solutions and best practices
in both fixed and mobile computer networks. The book broadly
surveys thought-provoking security issues, discussing and raising
questions about the impact of new technologies and protocols (with
particular emphasis on the rapid growth and skyrocketing interests
and use in mobile technologies). It further explores the security
threats and vulnerabilities in the current network infrastructure
and protocols, and outlines current security efforts. The text
assumes a modest familiarity with basic computer programming and
networking.
