From the Author
A new book on Internet security!"Internet and Intranet Security" addresses security technologies for TCP/IP-based networks, such as the Internet, as well as intranets and extranets. In particular, it covers the firewall technology to provide access control services, as well as cryptographic protocols to provide communication security services (authentication, data confidentiality, data integrity, and non-repudiation services). There is also a companion book entitled "Authentication Systems for Secure Networks" that elaborates on authentication and key distribution systems that are available today.
