Introduction to Computer Security

Description

The Complete Guide to Computer, Network, Application, and Data Security

In this book, widely respected consultant and educator Matt Bishop presents a clear and useful introduction to the art and science of information security. Bishop’s insights and realistic examples will help any practitioner or student understand the crucial links between security theory and the day-to-day security challenges of production IT environments.

Bishop thoroughly introduces fundamental techniques and principles for modeling and analyzing security. Readers learn how to express security requirements, translate requirements into policies, implement mechanisms that enforce policy, and ensure that policies are effective. Along the way, Bishop explains how failures may be exploited by attackers–and how attacks may be discovered, understood, and countered.

Elements of computer security, including confidentiality, integrity, and availability

Operational issues, cost-benefit and risk analyses, legal and human factors

Planning and implementing effective access control

Defining security, confidentiality, and integrity policies

Using cryptography and public key systems, and recognizing their limits

Understanding and using authentication: from passwords to biometrics

Security design principles: least-privilege, fail-safe defaults, open design, economy of mechanism, and more

Controlling information flow through systems and networks

Assuring security throughout the system lifecycle

Malicious logic: Trojan horses, viruses, boot sector and executable infectors, rabbits, bacteria, logic bombs–and defenses against them

Vulnerability analysis, penetration studies, auditing, and intrusion detection/prevention

Applying security principles to networks, systems, users, and programs

Introduction to Computer Security draws upon Bishop’s widely praised Computer Security: Art and Science, without the highly complex and mathematical coverage that most practitioners and undergraduate students would find difficult or unnecessary. The result: the field’s most concise, accessible, and useful introduction.
