Description

With the constant stream of emails, social networks, and online bank accounts, technology has become a pervasive part of our everyday lives, making the security of these information systems an essential requirement for both users and service providers.

Architectures and Protocols for Secure Information Technology Infrastructures investigates different protocols and architectures that can be used to design, create, and develop security infrastructures by highlighting recent advances, trends, and contributions to the building blocks for solving security issues. This book is essential for researchers, engineers, and professionals interested in exploring recent advances in ICT security.



Reviews and Testimonials

International contributors relate the latest security problems and solutions for protocols, architectures, and frameworks used in information technology infrastructures. Material is grouped in sections on state of the art, cryptographic algorithms and security protocols, malware and intrusion detection systems, and secure platforms and frameworks. Some topics addressed include securing XML with role-based access control in the health care environment, a mobile-based aggregation architecture for user-centric identity management, a new encryption algorithm based on chaotic maps for wireless sensor networks, and a polling booth-based electronic voting scheme. Other subjects are host-based instruction detection systems, security and privacy issues in cloud computing, and efforts towards a certified email system.
