Network security spans a large number of discip-lines, ranging from management and policy topics to operating system kernel fundamentals. Historically, the coverage of these and the other network security areas was presented in multiple, speciali-zed publications or given a high-level treatment that was not suited to the practitioner.
Network Security Bible approaches network security from the view of the individual who wants to learn and apply the associated network security best practices without having to sort through a myriad of extraneous material from multiple sources. The information provided in this text includes “secrets” learned by practicing professionals in the field of network security through many years of real-world experience.
Network Security Bible provides comprehensive coverage of the fundamental concepts of network security and the processes and means required to implement a secure network. The goal of this text is to provide the reader with an understanding of security engineering processes and network security best practices, including in-depth specifics on the following topics: Windows; UNIX; Linux; The World Wide Web; E-mail; Risk management; Server applications; Domain Name Systems (DNS); Communications security.
Other topics are aimed at providing the reader with insight into information assurance through clear and thorough tutorials on the latest information, including security assessment, evaluation, and testing techniques. This up-to-date and applicable knowledge will benefit practitioners in the commer-cial, government, and industrial sectors.
