Description: This reference work looks at modern concepts of computer security.
It introduces the basic mathematical background necessary to follow
computer security concepts before moving on to modern developments
in cryptography. The concepts are presented clearly and illustrated
by numerous examples. Subjects covered include: private-key and
public-key encryption, hashing, digital signatures, authentication,
secret sharing, group-oriented cryptography, and many others. The
section on intrusion detection and access control provide examples
of security systems implemented as a part of operating system.
Database and network security is also discussed. The final… more…
