Wiliiam Stallings' Network Security: Applications and Standards, 4/e is a practical survey of network security applications and standards, with unmatched support for instructors and students.
In this age of universal electronic connectivity, viruses and hackers, electronic eavesdropping, and electronic fraud, security is paramount. Network Security: Applications and Standards, 4/e provides a practical survey of network security applications and standards, with an emphasis on applications that are widely used on the Internet and for corporate networks. An unparalleled support package for instructors and students ensures a successful teaching and learning experience.
Adapted from Cryptography and Network Security, Fifth Edition, this text covers the same topics but with a much more concise treatment of cryptography. Network Security, 4/e also covers SNMP security, which is not covered in the fifth edition.
Highlights include: expanded coverage of pseudorandom number generation; new coverage of federated identity, HTTPS, Secure Shell (SSH) and wireless network security; completely rewritten and updated coverage of IPsec; and a new chapter on legal and ethical issues.

Network Security Applications: Covers important network security tools and
applications, including Kerberos, X.509v3 certificates, PGP, S/MIME, IP Secu-
rity, SSL/TLS, SET, and SNMPv3. III.
System Security: Looks at system-level security issues, including the threat of
and countermeasures for intruders and viruses, and the use of firewalls and
trusted systems. This book i A more detailed, chapter-by-chapter summary appears at the end of Chapter ~

The page includes links to relevant sites, transparency masters of figures in the book in PDF (Adobe Acrobat) format, and sign-up information for the book's Internet mailing list. The Web page is at shore/-ws/NetSec.html. An Internet mailing list has been set up so that instructors using this book can exchange information, suggestions, and questions with each other and with the author. As soon as typos or other errors are discovered, an errata list for this book will be available at shore/-ws. Projects for Teaching Network Security For many instructors, an important component of a cryptography or security course is a project or set of projects by which the student gets hands-on experience to rein force concepts from the text. This book provides an unparalleled degree of support for including a projects component in the course. The instructor's manual not only includes guidance on how to assign and structure the projects, but also includes a set of suggested projects that covers a broad range of topics from the text:
· Research Projects: A series of research assignments that instruct the student
to research a particular topic on the Internet and write a report. ·
Programming Projects: A series of programming projects that cover a broad range of topics and that can be implemented in any suitable language on any platform. ·
Reading/Report Assignments: A list of papers in the literature, one for each chapter, that can be assigned for the student to read and then write a short report. See Appendix B for details. Realtionship to Crytography and Network Security, Second Edition This book is on spin-off from Cryptography and Network Security, Second Edition (CNS2e). CNS2e provides a substantial treatment of cryptography, including detailed analysis of algorithms and a significant mathematical component, the whole of which covers over 300 pages. Network Security Essentials: Applications and Standards (NSEle) provides instead a concise overview of these topics in Chapters 2 and 3. NSEle includes all of the remaining material of CNS2e, with updates. NSEle also covers SNMP security, which is not covered in CNS2e. Thus, NSEle is intended for college courses and professional readers where the interest is primarily in the application of network security, without the need or desire to delve deeply in to cryptographic theory and principles.
As we enter the age of universal electronic connectivity in which viruses, hackers, electronic eavesdropping, and electronic fraud can threaten the prosperity and productivity of corporations and individuals, security is increasingly important. Fortunately, the discipline of network security has matured, leading to the development of practical, available applications to enforce network security. This book provides an integrated, comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of internet-based security tools and applications vital to any treatment of data communications or networking.
Best-selling author and four-time winner of the TEXTY Award for the best computer science and engineering text, William Stallings provides a practical survey of both the principles and practice of network security.
Well organized to provide the optimal sequence for classroom instruction and self-study, this text includes these key features.
