Guide to Computer Network Security: Texts in Computer Science

Autor Joseph Migga Kizza
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 ian 2025
This timely textbook presents a comprehensive guide to the core topics in computing and information security and assurance realms, going beyond the security of networks to the ubiquitous mobile communications and online social networks that have become part of daily life.
In the context of growing human dependence on a digital ecosystem, this book stresses the importance of security awareness—whether in homes, businesses, or public spaces. It also embraces the new and more agile and artificial-intelligence-boosted computing systems models, online social networks, and virtual platforms that are interweaving and fueling growth of an ecosystem of intelligent digital and associated social networks. This fully updated edition features new material on new and developing artificial intelligence models across all computing security systems spheres, blockchain technology, and the metaverse, leading toward security systems virtualizations.
Topics and features:
  • Explores the range of risks and vulnerabilities in all connected digital systems
  • Presents exercises of varying levels of difficulty at the end of each chapter, and concludes with a diverse selection of practical projects
  • Describes the fundamentals of traditional computer network security, and common threats to security
  • Discusses the role and challenges of artificial intelligence in advancing the security of computing systems’ algorithms, protocols, and best practices
  • Raises thought-provoking questions regarding legislative, legal, social, technical, and ethical challenges, such as the tension between privacy and security
  • Offers supplementary material for students and instructors at an associated website, including slides, additional projects, and syllabus suggestions
This important textbook/reference is an invaluable resource for students of computer science, engineering, and information management, as well as for practitioners working in data- and information-intensive industries.
Professor Joseph Migga Kizza is a professor, former Head of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, and a former Director of the UTC InfoSec Center, at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, USA. He also authored the successful Springer textbooks Ethical and Social Issues in the Information Age and Ethical and Secure Computing: A Concise Module.

Recenzii

From the reviews:
"This book focuses on educating readers on the security problems that are likely to be encountered. … Overall, this is a well-written text that will provide readers with a solid foundation in information security. … it would also be appropriate as an introductory text for practitioners entering the field and for providing background and business context of security-related business issues for nontechnical managers." (W. T. Neumann, ACM Computing Reviews, May, 2009)
“This excellent book by Joseph Migga Kizza is very welcome. The author steers … to give a thorough, complete and very readable guide to the subject. … the book is well structured and presented – offering the basis of a strong balanced course. … stands by itself as a valuable guide. … Who is it for? A very good core text for an undergraduate course in network security, and valuable for any IT professional needing to refresh his or her understanding in this area … .” (Times Higher Education, Issue viii, December, 2009)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Contemporary societies have increasing dependence on computers and computer networks, and the increasing popularity of mobile computing, have given rise to numerous computer security problems. Yet despite a high proliferation of expert remedies, a viable and comprehensive solution to these security issues remains elusive, and society continues to suffer at the hands of cyber criminals, vandals and hackers.
This authoritative Guide to Computer Network Security explores computer network infrastructures and protocol design security flaws, and discusses current security solutions and best practices in both fixed and mobile computer networks. The book broadly surveys thought-provoking security issues, discussing and raising questions about the impact of new technologies and protocols (with particular emphasis on the rapid growth and skyrocketing interests and use in mobile technologies). It further explores the security threats and vulnerabilities in the current network infrastructure and protocols, and outlines current security efforts. The text assumes a modest familiarity with basic computer programming and networking.
Features:
• Covers the very core of network security, and includes chapters about the very latest in ‘handling disasters’ and ‘security in mobile network systems’
• Presents an in-depth discussion of standardization, again informing the reader on current trends on the topic
• Raises awareness of the security problems in cyberspace, and more particularly, computer network security
• Discusses computer network infrastructure and protocol design flaws and vulnerabilities
• Explores the role of legislation and law enforcement in maintaining computer and computer network security
• Proposes efficient and widely acceptable solutions and best practices to security problems, and encourages readers to investigate other possiblesolutions
• Alerts the reader to the daunting security problems in increasingly popular mobile network systems
• Includes two types of end-of-chapter exercises: quickly workable questions, as well as more thought-provoking advanced exercises
• Devotes one complete chapter to lab exercises: weekly, semester assignments and hard open-research projects
• Endeavours to use open source software tools throughout
• Provides support materials for lecturers and students such as PowerPoint slides, syllabus suggestions, solutions, instructor manual and student laboratory materials
This text/reference is an invaluable instructional and research tool for undergraduates in computer and information security. It is also a rich resource for practitioners, and professionals looking to gain an understanding of computer network infrastructure and information network security.
Dr Joseph Migga Kizza has also written Computer Network Security and Ethical and Social Issues in the Information Age. 
Key Topics:
Network Vulnerabilities
Hostile Scripts
Security Assessment
Authentication
Cryptography
Computer and Network Forensics
Network Security Protocols
Security in Wireless and Sensor Networks

Caracteristici

Fully revised and updated new edition, covering the latest developments in virtualization, cloud computing, mobile systems, and the Internet of Things Includes both quick and more advanced exercises at the end of each chapter, as well as an entire chapter devoted to laboratory exercises Provides supporting material for instructors and students at an associated website, including slides, lab projects, and answers to selected exercises
