Riassunto:

William Stallings' Cryptography and Network Security: Principles and Practice, 5e is a practical survey of cryptography and network security with unmatched support for instructors and students.

In this age of universal electronic connectivity, viruses and hackers, electronic eavesdropping, and electronic fraud, security is paramount. This text provides a practical survey of both the principles and practice of cryptography and network security. First, the basic issues to be addressed by a network security capability are explored through a tutorial and survey of cryptography and network security technology. Then, the practice of network security is explored via practical applications that have been implemented and are in use today. An unparalleled support package for instructors and students ensures a successful teaching and learning experience.

The new edition has been updated to include coverage of the latest topics including expanded coverage of block cipher modes of operation, including authenticated encryption; revised and expanded coverage of AES; expanded coverage of pseudorandom number generation; new coverage of federated identity, HTTPS, Secure Shell (SSH) and wireless network security; completely rewritten and updated coverage of IPsec; and a new chapter on legal and ethical issues.

Recensione: “Coverage and clarity of material are excellent in this book [Stallings]. This is an appropriate level for first-year graduate students.” ― Shambhu Upadhyaya, University at Buffalo

“Bill Stallings has long been known as someone who can explain complicated topics well. I’ve been reading his books since the mid-80’s and they are always well done.” ― Mike Kain, Drexel University

“The text [Stallings] compares well to other texts in both theory and application...Stallings’ problems are the best that I’ve seen.” ― William Bard, University of Texas

“This is one of the best textbooks [Stallings] designed for a combined introduction to cryptology and network security for computer scientists and engineers that I have seen. Mathematics coverage is adequate...virtually no mathematical background is expected.” ― David Arnold, Baylor University

“The text [Stallings] does a very good job of giving a subject overview while including details of various algorithms.” ― Edward Allen, Wake Forest University
