Hack Proofing Your Network: Internet Tradecraft

If you don’t hack your systems, who will?
One of the reasons I put this book project together is that I believe security professionals should be hackers. In this case, by hackers, I mean people who are capable of defeating security measures. This book purports to teach people how to be hackers. In reality, most of the people who buy this book will do so because they want to protect their own systems and those of their employer. So, how can you prevent break-ins to your system if you don’t know how they are accomplished? How do you test your security measures? How do you make a judgment about how secure a new system is?
When you’re through reading Hack Proofing Your Network, you’ll understand terms like “smashing the stack,” “blind spoofing,” “building a backward bridge,” “steganography,” “buffer overflow” and you’ll see why you need to worry about them. You will learn how to protect your servers from attacks by using a 5-step approach:
1. Planning
2. Network/Machine Recon
3. Research/Develop
4. Execute Attack and Achieve Goal
5. Cleanup
And you’ll understand the theory of hacking, how to fend off local and remote attacks, and how to report and evaluate security problems.
The Only Way to Stop a Hacker Is to Think Like One.

Practical Industrial Data Networks: Design, Installation and Troubleshooting

The professional engineer's guide to planning, implementing and troubleshooting data communications solutions.

Review
"The title of this book describes the contents fot a T. Each chapter covers a specific standart, protocol or type of equipment or hardware. The chapters tend to cover the same topics in a similar order, making the book as a whole consistent and reinforcing. It also makes it easy for the reader to compare the same section of different chapters. For example, you could compare the information on the ProfiBus application layer, 13.2.3, to the information on the Fieldbus application layer, 14.4. Each chapter focuses on description and troubleshooting and includes many diagrams to clarify and reinforce the text...

Because of its practical nature and accessible style, Practical Industrial Data Networks could be used for almost anyone working with networked data on an industrial scale. It is the sort of book that any institute of higher learning, from a community college to a four year university, should have on hand to support its computer science, information technology, engineering and technology departments. Similarly, any business running an industrial data network will find this book a useful reference guide." E-Streams Vol. 7, No. 11 - November 2004

Data Scheduling and Transmission Strategies in Asymmetric Telecommunication Environments

Recent advancement and increased growth in Web technologies have resulted in an even greater need for more efficient scheduling and data transmission strategies. An increased reliance on wireless communications devices, with their constraint issues, has further complicated the problem. While both push and pull strategies provide certain solutions, each has limitations that compromise performance. What is becoming clear is that any optimal solutions will require novel push-pull hybrid approaches.
Data Scheduling and Transmission Strategies in Asymmetric Telecommunications Environments helps systems architects and engineers take on this challenge by providing a thorough discussion of major data and scheduling and transmission strategies. Written by two highly respected pioneering researchers, this work takes a comparative and practical approach that incorporates much of the authors’ original research.
They discuss basic push and pull strategies and examine the challenges posed by customer requests and behavior, before defining ideal hybrid strategies. Exceptionally thorough in this practical approach, they demonstrate the value of separating clients by class and introduce the concept of an importance factor to properly prioritize a system. They also look at a new on-line hybrid solutions for multichannel broadcast problems and go on to address future problems that are likely to remain open.
For those seeking to extract the best performance out of data transmission schemes in asymmetric environments, this invaluable resource is unparalleled in its depth of coverage and innovation.

Cooperative Communications and Networking: Technologies and System Design

Cooperative and relay communications have recently become the most widely explored topics in communications, whereby users cooperate in transmitting their messages to the destination, instead of conventional networks which operate independently and compete among each other for channel resources. As the field has progressed, cooperative communications have become a design concept rather than a specific transmission technology. This concept has revolutionized the design of wireless networks, allowing increased coverage, throughput, and transmission reliability even as conventional transmission techniques gradually reach their limits. Cooperative and relay technologies have also made their way toward next generation wireless standards, such as IEEE802.16 (WiMAX) or LTE, and have been incorporated into many modern wireless applications, such as cognitive radio and secret communications.

Cooperative Communications and Networking: Technologies and System Design provides a systematic introduction to the fundamental concepts of cooperative communications and relays technology to enable engineers, researchers or graduate students to conduct advanced research and development in this area.

The contents of the book can be summarized as follows:

•Introduces the reader to various cooperation and relay techniques along with a survey of its role in next generation wireless standards.

•Reviews basic wireless communication and MIMO techniques for readers new to this field.

•Presents fundamental cooperative communication and relay techniques for a basic cooperative entity that consists of only two users and a common destination.

•Fundamental limits of cooperative and relay channels are described from the information-theoretic standpoint.

•Describes how cooperative and relay technology can be integrated with other advanced wireless technology, such as OFDM and MIMO.

•Introduces several cross-layer and networking issues that may arise in cooperative networks, including routing, QoS, and security considerations.

Cooperative Communications and Networking: Technologies and System Design provides researchers, graduate students, and practical engineers with sufficient knowledge of both the background of cooperative communications and networking, and potential research directions.

Digital Modulation Techniques, Second Edition (Artech House Telecommunications Library)

IEEE Communications called the first edition "extremely useful … likely to become a standard reference" — and engineers worldwide have agreed! This newly revised and expanded edition of an Artech House classic builds on its success as far and away the most comprehensive guide to digital modulation techniques used in communications today. It devotes five new chapters to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), the hottest new bandwidth-efficient technique, and includes new modulations for optical communications. It also adds a fast-access comparison of all modulation schemes that will prove popular with engineers for any number of research and design tasks.

Engineers get full details for every technique including operation principles, bit error probability, spectral characteristic, modulator, demodulator, synchronizer, performance in fading channels, comparison with other techniques, and applications. The book is packed with nearly 400 illustrations and includes new appendixes covering trigonometry identities, Fourier transform pairs and properties, and Q-function and error function values that provide even more time-saving reference help for today’s busy engineer.
