Security of Information and Communication Networks

Beschreibung

A complete treatment of securing and transporting information over a secure network Although information security and communication network security are extremely hot topics, few books combine both areas in a substantive manner. Security of Information and Communication Networks fills the important need for a complete conceptual treatment of both securing information and transporting it over a secure network. Written in simple language and with minimal mathematics, it thoroughly describes: * Mathematical foundations * Ciphers and algorithms * Cryptographic key distribution systems * Chaotic cryptographic systems * Communication security layers classifications * Network security * Quantum networks and quantum key distribution * Next-generation optical network security * Biometrics and communication networks Complemented with figures and graphs to illustrate mathematical and network security concepts, this is a practical reference book for students, professionals, researchers, practitioners, and others in business and government who need to gain a conceptual, rather than a technical, understanding of this important topic. It also serves as a valuable supplemental text for courses in cryptography, information security, communications security, and networking security.
Information and communications security is a hot topic in private industry as well as in government agencies. This book provides a complete conceptual treatment of securing information and transporting it over a secure network in a manner that does not require a strong mathematical background. It stresses why information security is important, what is being done about it, how it applies to networks, and an overview of its key issues. It is written for anyone who needs to understand these important topics at a conceptual rather than a technical level.
