Product Description

Product Description
"This book provides an excellent overview of how encryption is used, its strengths and weaknesses, and what to look for when building or choosing real-world solutions. This is a must-have book for anyone considering the deployment of an important system relying on modern cryptography." - Marcus J. Ranum Chief Scientist, V-ONE Corporation Here, in one comprehensive, soup-to-nuts book, is the solution for Internet security: modern-day cryptography. Written by a security expert with a wealth of practical experience, this book covers network and Internet security in terms that are easy to understand, using proven technology, systems, and solutions. From the client workstation to the Web host to the e-mail server, every aspect of this important topic is examined and explained. The once-daunting subject of cryptography is demystified and applied to today's security challenges. Topics include: *Essentials of cryptography *Networking and Internet fundamentals *Encryption building blocks *Virtual private networks *Legal considerations *Setting realistic security objectives *Secured electronic mail *World Wide Web transaction security *Internet Firewalls This book is written for people who want to move data safely across the Internet and protect corporate resources from unauthorized access. Using real-life case studies, examples, and commercially available software products, cryptography is presented as a practical solution to specific, everyday security challenges. 0201924803B04062001

From the Author
A practical guide to products and techniques
This book is intended for people who need to make technical decisions about cryptographic security but have little knowledge of cryptography. This includes people responsible for important data, like business analysts and managers, as well as those who must install and maintain the protections, like information system administrators and managers. Cryptographic concepts are explained using diagrams to illustrate component relationships and data flows. At every step we examine the relationship between the security measures and the vulnerabilities they address, to guide readers in safely applying cryptographic techniques.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent., 8 Jun 2000
I am an experienced networking guy with a need to understand security. This book is an excellent introduction to cryptography-based security for anyone who already understands networking. I found it to be very readable, so much so that I read it all the way through like a novel - which is unusual! Not as deep as Schneier's "Applied Cryptography" but they make an excellent pair.

5.0 out of 5 stars Right to the Point, 21 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This book at will give you just what you want to know. If you want to get into the bits and Bytes then you read every page and you will be a cryptography expert. If however you just need a broad understanding of the subject then skipping the Bits and bytes will do fine. I sell VPN solutions for a living and this book was a real help.
