Comprehensive in approach, this introduction to network and internetwork security provides a tutorial survey of network security technology, discusses the standards that are being developed for security in an internetworking environment, and explores the practical issues involved in developing security applications.

Ten chapters take the reader through a whirlwind tour that starts with a basic overview, is followed by a description of encryption, cryptology, authentication, and viruses, and ends with a description of current security practices. Covering encryption and authentication, the initial analysis of basic methods and tricks is enlivened by graphics, tables, and examples from popular fiction and history. The second half examines algorithms, authentication, and security for E-mail and networks. The quite readable text, accompanied by plenty of illustrations and tables, make this book a good place to turn to understand the complexities of viruses, cryptanalysis, or digital signatures. The math may frighten away the more numberphobic readers, but overall this text provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to security. (For instructors, there's even an Internet mailing list on security issues; information on it can be found in the preface.)
