Despite recent dramatic advances in computer security regarding the
proliferation of services and applications, security threats are still
major impediments in the deployment of these services. Paying serious
attention to these issues, Security in Distributed, Grid, Mobile, and
Pervasive Computing focuses on the increasing demand to guarantee
privacy, integrity, and availability of resources in networks and
distributed systems. A rich and useful presentation of strategies for
security issues, the book covers each computing area in separate
sections. It first reviews security issues and challenges in content
distribution networks, describes key agreement protocols based on the
Diffie-Hellman key exchange and key management protocols for complex
distributed systems like the Internet, and discusses securing design
patterns for distributed systems. The next section focuses on security
in mobile computing and wireless networks, covering wireless
authentication methods, secure data aggregation, and anonymous routing
protocol. After a section on grid computing security, the book presents
an overview of security solutions for pervasive healthcare systems and
surveys wireless sensor network security. With more and more vital
information stored on computers, security professionals need to know how
to combat threats and complications. Offering strategies to tackle these
issues, this book provides essential security information for
researchers, practitioners, educators, and graduate students in the
field.
