Internet Security Protocols

Implement end-to-end and gateway security for IP networks. "Internet Security Protocols: Protecting IP Traffic" is a complete networking professional's guide to providing end-to-end and gateway Internet security for the user's information. World-renowned consultant Uyless Black covers the essential Internet security protocols designed to protect IP traffic. The book's coverage includes: Key Internet security challenges: privacy, secrecy, confidentiality, integrity of information, authentication, access control, non-repudiation, denial of service attacks Dial-in authentication with CHAP, RADIUS, and DIAMETER The role of IPSec in acquiring privacy and authentication services The Internet Key Distribution, Certification, and Management Systems (ISAKMP and IKE) Security in mobile Internet applications From the basics of firewalls to the latest public key distribution systems, Uyless Black reviews the alternatives for securing Internet traffic. If you're responsible for securing information traveling on IP networks, "Internet Security Protocols" is a fine source for the authoritative answers you're looking for.

Table of contents

The purpose of designing this book is to discuss and analyze security protocols available for communication. Objective is to discuss protocols across all layers of TCP/IP stack and also to discuss protocols independent to the stack. Authors will be aiming to identify the best set of security protocols for the similar applications and will also be identifying the drawbacks of existing protocols. The authors will be also suggesting new protocols if any.

This survey focuses on the verification of specifications of protocols in the symbolic model. Even though it is fairly abstract, this level of verification is relevant in practice as it enables the discovery of many attacks. ProVerif is an automatic symbolic protocol verifier. It supports a wide range of cryptographic primitives.

This pioneering guide to Internet and intranet security is the first to cover all of the relevant technologies in one comprehensive reference, and enhances the ability to create and deploy secure architectures. It gives users the knowledge needed for improved productivity, whether setting up commerce on line, assembling a firewall, or selecting access controls and cryptographic protocols to secure TCP/IP-based networks.

Internet is spreading day by day. The security issue of Internet is a challenging job. The business organizations and people require secure communications over the internet. Moreover, in online business shoppers must feel completely assured that their credit card and banking details are secure and cannot be accessed by hackers. This book describes the concepts of network security algorithms for secure communication and e-commerce transactions in a simplified way. I have tried to provide the solution to understand the Complex concepts with the help of flow diagrams and examples. Major topics covered in this book are –Internet and TCP/IP protocol suite, Symmetric key cryptography, DES (Data Encryption Standard), IDEA (International Data Encryption Algorithm), AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), Asymmetric key cryptography, RSA algorithm, digital envelop and digital signature, Message digest, MD5 algorithm, SHA (Secure Hash Algorithm), SSL (Secure Socket Layer), SHTTP (Secure HTTP), SET (Secure Electronic Transaction), 3D secure protocol, Electronic money, PEM (Privacy Enhanced Mail), PGP (Pretty Good Privacy), S/MIME (Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions), Firewall, IPsec (IP Security Protocol), VPN (Virtual Private Network).
