Guide To Security For Wimax Technologies Draft

Provides info. to org. about WiMAX security capabilities. WiMAX is based on the IEEE 802.16 family of standards. Discusses the security of the WiMAX air interface and of user subscriber devices; data confidentiality; data integrity; and replay protection. NIST recommends specific courses of action that fed. agencies can take to improve the security of their wireless communications; these recommended practices can also assist other org. considering the implementation of WiMAX systems. This guide explains the technology components that compose the WiMAX operating environments, the development of the IEEE 802.16 family of standards, and the product certification program conducted by the WiMAX Forum. Illus. A print on demand report.

The purpose of the National Institute of Standards and Technology Special Publication 800-127, Guide to Securing WiMAX Wireless Communications, is to provide information to organizations regarding the security capabilities of wireless communications using WiMAX networks and to provide recommendations on using these capabilities. WiMAX technology is a wireless metropolitan area network (WMAN) technology based upon the IEEE 802.16 standard. It is used for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, fixed last-mile broadband access, long-range wireless backhaul, and access layer technology for mobile wireless subscribers operating on telecommunications networks.~

WiMAX technology is a wireless metropolitan area network (WMAN) communications technology that is largely based on the wireless interface defined in the IEEE 802.16 standard. The industry trade association, the WiMAX Forum, coined the WiMAX trademark and defines the precise content and scope of WiMAX technology through technical specifications that it creates and publishes.2 The original purpose of IEEE 802.16 technology was to provide last-mile broadband wireless access as an alternative to cable, digital subscriber line-, or T1 service. Developments in the IEEE 802.16 standard shifted the technology's focus toward a more cellular-like, mobile architecture to serve a broader market. Today, WiMAX technology continues to adapt to market demands and provide enhanced user mobility. This document discusses WiMAX wireless communication topologies, components, certifications, security features, and related security concerns.

The Wiley Handbook of Science and Technology for Homeland Security is an essential and timely collection of resources designed to support the effective communication of homeland security research across all disciplines and institutional boundaries. Truly a unique work this 4 volume set focuses on the science behind safety, security, and recovery from both man-made and natural disasters has a broad scope and international focus. The Handbook: Educates researchers in the critical needs of the homeland security and intelligence communities and the potential contributions of their own disciplines Emphasizes the role of fundamental science in creating novel technological solutions Details the international dimensions of homeland security and counterterrorism research Provides guidance on technology diffusion from the laboratory to the field Supports cross-disciplinary dialogue in this field between operational, R&D and consumer communities

NTMS’2007 was the first IFIP International Conference on New Technologies, Mobility and Security that was held from May 2 to May 4, 2007 in Paris, France. It was aimed at fostering advances in the areas such as New Technologies, Wireless Networks, Mobile Computing, Ad hoc and Ambient Networks, QoS, Network Security and E-commerce. It provided a dynamic forum for researchers, students and professionals to present their research and development in these areas.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 13th International Workshop on Communication Technologies for Vehicles, Nets4Cars/Nets4Trains/Nets4Aircraft 2018, held in Madrid, Spain, in May 2018. The 17 full papers presented together with 2 demo papers in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The volume features contributions in the theory or practice of intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and communication technologies for: - Vehicles on road: e.g. cars, tracks and buses; - Air: e.g. aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles; and - Rail: e.g. trains, metros and trams.

Based on related courses and research on the cyber environment in Europe, the United States, and Asia, Cyberspace and Cybersecurity supplies complete coverage of cyberspace and cybersecurity. It not only emphasizes technologies but also pays close attention to human factors and organizational perspectives.Detailing guidelines for quantifying and me
