Internet Security: Cryptographic Principles, Algorithms and Protocols

"Cryptography is the key to securing the Internet. If every communication network were to use a secure system based on encryption, then viruses, worms and hackers would have a very hard time. Unfortunately, this scenario does not reflect the reality of the Internet world today. However, with security issues becoming more and more important internationally, engineers of the future will be required to design tougher, safer systems. This book takes a long-term view. It is not a 'how-to' implementation guide for today's practitioners. It is a training text for the engineers of the future. Features: Detailed discussion of block cipher design principles, including coverage of IDEA, RC5, RC6, Triple DES and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). Information on hash functions and message digests, including the latest protocols for digital signature, authentication and key-sharing HMAC. Expanded coverage of public-key encryption/signature algorithms, including Diffie-Hellman secret key exchange, RSA, ElGamal, Schnorr, DSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). Profiles for Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) < P> Complete and detailed guides to the entire TCP/IP protocol suite IPsec for network-layer security PGP and S/MIME for e-mail security SSL/TLS for transport-layer security. Firewalls for trusted systems SET security protocols used in the smart card. As well as providing an in-depth introduction to relevant cryptographic principles, algorithms and protocols, Internet Security links them to the technologies in use on the Internet today. State-of-the-art analyses of IETF standards plus summaries and explanations of RFC documents, numerous examples and a list of frequently used acronyms make this book a comprehensive and valuable reference for students, researchers and professional engineers alike - anyone engaged in the long-term development of secure systems."

Chapter One

Internetworking and Layered Models

The Internet today is a widespread information infrastructure, but it is inherently an insecure channel for sending messages. When a message (or packet) is sent from one Website to another, the data contained in the message are routed through a number of intermediate sites before reaching its destination. The Internet was designed to accommodate heterogeneous platforms so that people who are using different computers and operating systems can communicate. The history of the Internet is complex and involves many aspects - technological, organisational and community. The Internet concept has been a big step along the path towards electronic commerce, information acquisition and community operations.

Early ARPANET researchers accomplished the initial demonstrations of packet-switching technology. In the late 1970s, the growth of the Internet was recognised and subsequently a growth in the size of the interested research community was accompanied by an increased need f ... read full excerpt from Internet Security: Cryptographic Principles, Algorithms and Protocols ebook
