Abstract :
"The various vendors of traditional security systems implement some portions of security functionality and security services, relying on their own, mostly non-structured, functional architecture. The key to successful network security implementation is to consider security management as an evolving integrated part of the overall network architecture. This tutorial provides an overall complete view of network security issues. The workshop covers a concise discussion on the discipline of cryptography-covering algorithms and protocols underlying network security applications, security mechanisms, digital signatures, and key exchange. Internet security vulnerabilities, gateways, firewalls and their limitations, IPSec and key management for network layer security, TLS, SSH and transport layer security, virtual private networks, and secure remote access are covered. In particular, security standards for authentication and privacy in both wire-line and wireless environment are described in detail. Implementation of IPSec as a security standard that affords the capability of securing communications across a local-area network (LAN), across public and private wide-area networks (WANs), and across the Internet is described. This course offers a framework for security architecture to implement the full range of functionality of security for enterprise networks."
