Computer and Network Security
Terms are defined well even for beginners, and exercises at the end of each chapter allow you to test your comprehension of a given set of concepts. But the authors use a notation system (discussed in the introduction) that you'll need to understand to follow some of the examples and arguments. Clearly, this thought-provoking book was designed for serious students of computers and their networks, but even a newbie will find entertaining and useful tidbits.Highlights of the book's extensive new coverage include Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), IPsec, SSL, PKI Standards, and Web security.
