In 1996, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) was enacted to protect health information by establishing transaction standards for the exchange of health information, security standards, and privacy standards for the use and disclosure of individually identifiable health information. Entities directly impacted by this act are health plans, health clearinghouses and healthcare providers (“TLC HIPAA Overview”, n.d.).
Although there are other rules incorporated in HIPAA, the Security Rule has the most direct impact on hospital technology systems including network infrastructure. This rule addresses security measures such as user authentication, access controls, audit trails, controls of external communication links and access, physical security, systems back up, and disaster recovery. With increasingly more information being stored and transmitted electronically, the Security Rule works to identify and regulate these activities (Gue, n.d.). |

Wireless Communications over MIMO Channels Sep 2006
Wireless Communications over MIMO Channels: Applications to CDMA and Multiple Antenna Systems covers both, state-of-the-art channel coding concepts and CDMA and multiple antenna systems, rarely found in other books on the subject.
Furthermore, an information theoretical analysis of CDMA and SDMA systems illuminate ultimate limits and demonstrates the high potential of these concepts. Besides spatial multiplexing, the use of multiple transmit antennas in order to increase the link reliability by diversity concepts (space-time coding) is described. Another focus is the application of error control coding in mobile radio communications
Accompanying appendices include: basic derivations, tables of frequently used channel models, chain rules for entropy and information, data processing theorem, basics of linear algebra, Householder reflection and Givens rotation, and the LLL algorithm for lattice reduction. |

As more and more home and business users adapt wireless technologies because of their ease of use and affordability, these devices are coming under attack by the malicious who are after your data and by the casual user looking for free bandwidth. In this paper, I will explain how wireless attacks are done on Wired Equivalency Privacy (WEP) networks, other common network attacks and then present several options to defend wireless networks. |
