Guide to Internet Cryptography
Research over the last two decades has considerably expanded knowledge of Internet cryptography, revealing the important interplay between standardization, implementation, and research. This practical textbook/guide is intended for academic courses in IT security and as a reference guide for Internet security. It describes important Internet standards in a language close to real-world cryptographic research and covers the essential cryptographic standards used on the Internet, from WLAN encryption to TLS and e-mail security. From academic and non-academic research, the book collects information about attacks on implementations of these standards (because these attacks are the main source of new insights into real-world cryptography). By summarizing all this in one place, this useful volume can highlight cross-influences in standards, as well as similarities in cryptographic constructions. Topics and features: · Covers the essential standards in Internet cryptography · Integrates work exercises and problems in each chapter · Focuses especially on IPsec, secure e-mail and TLS · Summarizes real-world cryptography in three introductory chapters · Includes necessary background from computer networks · Keeps mathematical formalism to a minimum, and treats cryptographic primitives mainly as blackboxes · Provides additional background on web security in two concluding chapters Offering a uniquely real-world approach to Internet cryptography, this textbook/reference will be highly suitable to students in advanced courses on cryptography/cryptology, as well as eminently useful to professionals looking to expand their background and expertise. Professor Dr. Jörg Schwenk holds the Chair for Network and Data Security at the Ruhr University in Bochum, Germany. He (co-)authored about 150 papers on the book's topics, including for conferences like ACM CCS, Usenix Security, IEEE S&P, and NDSS.
The Rough Guide to Internet
This guide to the Internet covers everything you need to know from getting connected to building your own Web page. There are also chapters covering on-line shopping, Internet radio and music, including a guide to navigating the MP3 maze, plus information on the next generation browsers.
Internet Security
Knowledge of number theory and abstract algebra are pre-requisitesfor any engineer designing a secure internet-based system. However, most of the books currently available on the subject areaimed at practitioners who just want to know how the various toolsavailable on the market work and what level of security theyimpart. These books traditionally deal with the science andmathematics only in so far as they are necessary to understand howthe tools work. Internet Security differs by its assertion that cryptography is thesingle most important technology for securing the Internet. Toquote one reviewer "if every one of your communication partnerswere using a secure system based on encryption, viruses, worms andhackers would have a very hard time". This scenario does notreflect the reality of the Internet world as it currently stands.However, with security issues becoming more and more importantinternationally, engineers of the future will be required to designtougher, safer systems. Internet Security: * Offers an in-depth introduction to the relevant cryptographicprinciples, algorithms protocols - the nuts and bolts of creating asecure network * Links cryptographic principles to the technologies in use on theInternet, eg. PGP, S/MIME, IPsec, SSL TLS, Firewalls and SET(protecting credit card transactions) * Provides state-of-the-art analysis of the latest IETF standardsplus summaries and explanations of RFC documents * Authored by a recognised expert in security Internet Security is the definitive text for graduate students onsecurity and cryptography courses, and researchers in security andcryptography areas. It will prove to be invaluable to professionalsengaged in the long-term development of secure systems.
