Network Security [PDF ebook] 
Current Status and Future Directions

A unique overview of network security issues, solutions, and
methodologies at an architectural and research level

Network Security provides the latest research and addresses likely
future developments in network security protocols, architectures,
policy, and implementations. It covers a wide range of topics
dealing with network security, including secure routing, designing
firewalls, mobile agent security, Bluetooth security, wireless
sensor networks, securing digital content, and much more.

Leading authorities in the field provide reliable information on
the current state of security protocols, architectures,
implementations, and policies. Contributors analyze research
activities, proposals, trends, and state-of-the-art aspects of
security and provide expert insights into the future of the
industry.

Complete with strategies for implementing security mechanisms and
techniques, Network Security features:

* State-of-the-art technologies not covered in other books, such as
Denial of Service (Do S) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDo S)
attacks and countermeasures

* Problems and solutions for a wide range of network technologies,
from fixed point to mobile

* Methodologies for real-time and non-real-time applications and
protocols
