Maximum Wireless Security

Maximum Wireless Security

Maximum Wireless Security is a practical handbook that reveals the techniques and tools crackers use to break into wireless networks, and that details the steps network administrators need to take to secure their systems.The authors provide information to satisfy the expert's hunger for in-depth information with actual source code, real-world case studies, and step-by-step configuration recipes.The book includes detailed, hands-on information that is currently unavailable in any printed text-information that has been gleaned from the authors' work with real wireless hackers ("war drivers"), wireless security developers, and leading security experts

Linux Security Cookbook

Linux Security Cookbook

The Linux Security Cookbook includes real solutions to a wide range of targeted problems, such as sending encrypted email within Emacs, restricting access to network services at particular times of day, firewalling a webserver, preventing IP spoofing, setting up key-based SSH authentication, and much more. With over 150 ready-to-use scripts and configuration files, this unique book helps administrators secure their systems without having to look up specific syntax. The book begins with recipes devised to establish a secure system, then moves on to secure day-to-day practices, and concludes with techniques to help your system stay secure. This cookbook's proven techniques are derived from hard-won experience. Whether you're responsible for security on a home Linux system or for a large corporation, or somewhere in between, you'll find valuable, to-the-point, practical recipes for dealing with everyday security issues

The IMS: IP Multimedia Concepts and Services in the Mobile Domain

The IMS: IP Multimedia Concepts and Services in the Mobile Domain





We have telephony to talk to each other, messaging to dispatch mail or instant messages, browsing to read published content and search engines to locate content sites. However, current mobile networks do not provide the possibility for one application rich terminal to communicate with another in a peer-to-peer session beyond voice calls. Mobile telephony with the current technology has been hugely successful and shows that there is immense value in communicating with peers while being mobile, and with increasingly available smarter multimedia terminals the communication experience will be something more than just exchanging voice. Those multimedia terminals need IP multimedia networks. Hence, the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has developed a standard for SIP based IP multimedia service machinery known as 'The IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem)' and this informative book explains everything you need to know about it……...
Presents the architecture and functionality of logical elements of IMS and their interfaces providing detailed description of how elements are connected, what protocols are used and how they are used
Explains how the optimisation and security of the mobile communication environment has been designed in the form of user authentication and authorisation based on mobile identities
Illustrates how optimisation at the radio interface is achieved using specific rules at the user to network interface. This includes signalling compression mechanisms as well as security and policy control mechanisms, allowing radio loss and recovery detection
Addresses important aspects from an operator's point of view while developing architecture such as charging framework, policy and service control
Describes many services on top of IMS in detail, including voice, presence, messaging and conferencing. Written in a manner that allows readers to choose the level of knowledge and understanding they need to gain about the IMS, this volume will have instant appeal to a wide audience ranging from marketing managers, research and development engineers, network engineers, developers, test engineers to university students.

Embedded Systems: Desktop Integration (Wordware Applications Library)

This is the first book to combine embedded design, development, interface selection, and PC interfaceing within the same context.

Embedded Linux: Hardware, Software, and Interfacing

Embedded Linux: Hardware, Software, and Interfacing



Embedded Linux covers the development and implementation of interfacing applications on an embedded Linux platform. It includes a comprehensive discussion of platform selection, crosscompilation, kernel compilation, root filesystem creation, booting, remote debugging, real-world interfacing, application control, data collection, archiving, and presentation.This book includes serial, parallel, memory I/O, USB, and interrupt-driven hardware designs using x86-, StrongARM®-, and PowerPC®-based target boards. In addition, you will find simple device driver module code that connects external devices to the kernel, and network integration code that connects embedded Linux field devices to a centralized control center. Examples teach hardware developers how to store and activate field bits and deliver process information using open source software. If you are a hardware developer, software developer, system integrator, or product manager who's begun exploring embedded Linux for interfacing applications, this book is for you.
