Download or read book IM Instant Messaging Security written by John Rittinghouse, PhD, CISM and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-07-19 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a significant need for a comprehensive book addressing the operational and day-to-day security management requirements. IM, used in enterprise networks can easily be reconfigured and allow for potentially nonstop exposure; they require the level of security be scrutinized carefully. This includes inherent security flaws in various network architectures that result in additional risks to otherwise secure converged networks. A few books cover components of the architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security, but none of them address IM issues in a manner that is useful for the day-to-day operations and management of enterprise networks. IM Security is intended to bridge this gap. There are no current books that cover components of the architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security. No book we know of addresses IM security in a manner useful for day-to-day operations and management of IM-capable networks in today’s corporate environment. Up-to-date coverage of architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security Addresses IM security for day-to-day operations and management of IM-capable networks in today’s corporate environment

Download or read book Securing IM and P2P Applications for the Enterprise written by Marcus Sachs and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-12-12 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for system administrators and security professionals who need to bring now ubiquitous IM and P2P applications under their control. Many businesses are now taking advantage of the speed and efficiency offered by both IM and P2P applications, yet are completely ill-equipped to deal with the management and security ramifications. These companies are now finding out the hard way that these applications which have infiltrated their networks are now the prime targets for malicious network traffic. This book will provide specific information for IT professionals to protect themselves from these vulnerabilities at both the network and application layers by identifying and blocking this malicious traffic. * A recent study by the Yankee group ranked "managing and securing IM and P2P applications" as the #3 priority for IT managers in 2004 * The recently updated SANS/FBI top 10 list of vulnerabilities for computers running Microsoft Windows contained both P2P and IM applications for the first time * The recently released Symantec Threat Assessment report for the first half of 2004 showed that 19 of the top 50 virus threats targeted IM or P2P applications. Despite the prevalence of IM and P2P applications on corporate networks and the risks they pose, there are no other books covering these topics

Download or read book Cryptography and Network Security written by V.K. Jain and published by KHANNA PUBLISHING HOUSE. This book was released on 2013 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been written keeping in mind syllabi of all Indian universities and optimized the contents of the book accordingly. These students are the book's primary audience. Cryptographic concepts are explained using diagrams to illustrate component relationships and data flows. At every step aim is to examine the relationship between the security measures and the vulnerabilities they address. This will guide readers in safely applying cryptographic techniques. This book is also intended for people who know very little about cryptography but need to make technical decisions about cryptographic security. many people face this situation when they need to transmit business data safely over the Internet. This often includes people responsible for the data, like business analysts and managers. as well as those who must install and maintain the protections, like information systems administrators and managers. This book requires no prior knowledge of cryptography or related mathematics. Descriptions of low-level crypto mechanisms focus on presenting the concepts instead of the details. This book is intended as a reference book for professional cryptographers, presenting the techniques and algorithms of greatest interest of the current practitioner, along with the supporting motivation and background material. It also provides a comprehensive source from which to learn cryptography, serving both students and instructors. In addition, the rigorous treatment, breadth, and extensive bibliographic material should make it an important reference for research professionals. While composing this book my intention was not to introduce a collection of new techniques and protocols, but rather to selectively present techniques from those currently available in the public domain.
