Encryption in a Windows Environment: EFS File, 802.1x Wireless, IPSec Transport, and S/MIME Exchange, Digital Shortcut
With the current business, government, and institutional focus on security, organizations are scrambling to make their networks more secure. Although encryption is nothing new to Windows, recent advances in Microsoft® Windows 2003 and Microsoft® Windows XP have drastically simplified the support of encryption technologies in Windows environments. Delivered in Adobe PDF format for quick and easy access, Encryption in a Windows Environment: EFS File, 802.1x Wireless, IPSec Transport, and S/MIME Exchange, 1/e covers the installation and operation of EFS file encryption, IPSec communications encryption, 802.1x wireless encryption, L2TP mobile encryption, as well as the auto-enrollment of certificates that drastically simplifies the administration of encrypted communications. The encryption technologies addressed in this digital Short Cut are included in all copies of Microsoft® Windows 2003 and Microsoft® Windows XP.

This first-of-its-kind book, from expert authors actively contributing to the evolution of Bluetooth specifications, provides an overview and detailed descriptions of all the security functions and features of this standard’s latest core release. After categorizing all the security issues involved in ad hoc networking, this hands-on volume shows you how to design a highly secure Bluetooth system and implement security enhancements. The book also helps you fully understand the main security risks involved with introducing Bluetooth-based communications in your organization.This cutting-edge resource examines all known attacks on Bluetooth security mechanisms and their implementations, demonstrating how some of these known weaknesses can be avoided with appropriate defensive measures. The book presents concrete examples of how to design security solutions for some Bluetooth applications and products built on these applications. You find real-world case studies including technical algorithms, mechanisms and protocols, and security architectures. These architectures offer valuable guidelines for use in building Bluetooth and non-Bluetooth-specific security mechanisms.

Advanced Wireless Networks 4G Technologies June 2006
The comprehensive guide to the current status and future potential of advanced wireless networks.
This text provides systematic coverage of the latest global research results in the field of advanced wireless technology networks at a time when the industry is paving the way for 4G. The author adopts a logical approach, beginning each chapter with an introduction to the topic in question, before moving on to more complex ideas for system analysis. The discussion incorporates the physical layer, multiple access, the adaptive link layer, the adaptive Media Access Control Layer (MAC), teletraffic modeling and the adaptive Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) layer. There is then a detailed analysis of crosslayer optimization, mobility and handoffs, adaptive resource management, ad hoc and sensor networks, security and active networks. Strong sections on network deployment, network management, wireless information theory and energy efficient networks follow. Finally, QoS management and internet economics issues are explored in depth. The scope is thus wide-ranging, yet detailed and amply illustrated with real-life examples. It is a timely resource for those interested in understanding the current approaches and evolving directions for wireless networking. |

Wireless connectivity is now a reality in most businesses. Yet by its nature, wireless networks are the most difficult to secure and are often the favorite target of intruders. Some of the primary threats are the result of the following factors: *Denial of service (DoS) and other network layer attacks *Unauthorized access across the perimeter and within the organization Application layer intrusions and attacks, both from within and outside the network Extended connectivity through remote access and extranets *An increase in unmanaged or ill-managed endpoint devices *New applications like VoIP, instant messaging, and peer-to-peer This book provides the busy network administrator with best-practice solutions address these threats and to maintain a secure and accessible wireless network. The book endorses the principle that the best strategy is to deploy multiple layers of security, each reinforcing the other. Yet it never strays from its emphasis on the practical; that any tool or methodology that is deployed must work reliably, allow sufficient access, and require a minimal amount of maintenance. |
