Security for Telecommunications Networks

Security for Telecommunications Networks

Product Description

Telecommunications networks are a critical component of the economic and social infrastructures in which we live. Each day, well over three billion people across the globe rely upon these systems, as their primary means of connecting to the world around them.

Given the significant focus on securing critical infrastructure in recent years, Security for Telecommunications Networks creates a starting place for new researchers in the field of secure telecommunications networks. This volume not only discusses emerging threats, along with system vulnerability, but also presents the open questions posited by network evolution and defense mechanisms. This is one of the first books to discuss securing current and next generation telecommunications networks by the security community.

Security has become an important topic for many software systems. With the growing success of the Internet, computer and software systems have become more and more networked. Researchers are already developing scenarios in which millions of devices are connected and cooperatively running web-based commerce, government, health, and other types of security-sensitive systems. Much of the research effort in these scenarios is devoted to security aspects.

What could happen if, in a pervasive health scenario, cardiology data collected by wireless sensors attached to your body and pre-processed by software on your PDA is intercepted and manipulated by an unauthorized person during its transmission to your doctor? Or think of a scenario in which the software in your car is updated remotely because an attacker has compromised the manufacturer’s servers.

What if your car, which has just been ‘updated,’ no longer brakes, but instead activates its drive-by-wire accelerator? What if, in the near future, the control tower that just took over handling of the aircraft in which you are a passenger discovers that the plane no longer does what the pilots or the tower want, but, instead, what some hijackers want it to do? Perhaps worst of all, think about potential for disaster should someone maliciously take over control of a nuclear power plant…

You simply do not want these things to happen! In other words, you require the system to ensure a proper level of confidentiality and integrity before you trust and use it.

Architecture of a Database System

Now Publishers Inc | 2007-09-30 | ISBN:1601980787 | 136 pages | PDF | 1,7 Mb

Database Management Systems (DBMSs) are a ubiquitous and critical component of modern computing, and the result of decades of research and development in both academia and industry. Architecture of a Database System presents an architectural discussion of DBMS design principles, including process models, parallel architecture, storage system design, transaction system implementation, query processor and optimizer architectures, and typical shared components and utilities. Successful commercial and open-source systems are used as points of reference, particularly when multiple alternative designs have been adopted by different groups. Historically, DBMSs were among the earliest multi-user server systems to be developed, and thus pioneered many systems design techniques for scalability and reliability now in use in many other contexts. While many of the algorithms and abstractions used by a DBMS are textbook material, Architecture of a Database System addresses the systems design issues that make a DBMS work. Architecture of a Database System is an invaluable reference for database researchers and practitioners and for those in other areas of computing interested in the systems design techniques for scalability and reliability that originated in DBMS research and development.

Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures

Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures
- Practical Hacking Techniques and Countermeasures examines computer security from the hacker’s perspective, demonstrating how a computer system can be successfully attacked and compromised.

- This book shows how an attack is conceptualized, formulated and performed. With the VMware® Workstation software package available on the accompanying CD, it uses virtual computers to illustrate how an attack is executed, including the script, compilation, and results. It offers examples of attacks on Windows and Linux. It also covers such topics as footprinting, scanning, sniffing, passwords, and other attack tools. This text provides valuable information for constructing a system to defend against attacks.

100 Strangest Mysteries

Barnes & Noble | May 2007 | ISBN:0760791929 | PDF | 201 pages | 24,6 Mb

Were the Amityville hauntings cynical media manipulation? Is levitation possible? Has Earth been visited by UFOs from other realms? All these questions, and more, are considered in 100 Strangest Mysteries. Paranormal investigator Matt Lamy documents in detail the numerous phenomena and events which can be termed 'mysterious' and cannot be dismissed as mere hysteria or wild imaginings.

Divided into themed sections, the book includes:

The Beast of Bodmin — whether it is an escaped exotic pet, a feral cat or something more sinister, it certainly causes concern for inhabitants of its local area
Area 51 — conspiracy theorists believe it is a centre for the U.S. government's investigations into UFO activity, whilst others consider it to be 'only' a military air base
Ley lines and other energy fields — are they sacred sites going back thousands of years or modern New Age notions?
The Holy Grail — dismissed by organized religion, thought by some to have been a chalice brought to Britain by Joseph, many consider it to be nothing more than a romantic Arthurian legend...

Format: Pdf

Details:
Add seamless, interactive, user-controlled delivery to your Flash applications. This book builds upon your understanding of basic ActionScript (AS) syntax with the foundational skills that you need to use XML in Flash applications and AS2 or AS3 to migrate your existing applications.
Beginning with an introduction to XML, XML parsing methods, and a short introduction to AS2 you learn how to create a universal XML load/onload Class as well as a universal XHTML parser. Then you learn how to use Components using XML as the data source, including the menu, menubar, datagrid and tree component. Finally, a tutorial projectthe design and development of a Real Estate Web site that contains an XML search enginepulls it all together with hands-on experience.
All the applications use XML as the data source and are written as class files. Select parts of the Real Estate Web site are redeveloped in AS3 for purposes of illustration. The new XML class is presented and specific code examples demonstrate techniques to apply methods and use properties. Particular attention is paid to the differences between AS2 and AS3 and how to effectively transition from one AS version to the other.
