Internet Security Protocols: Protecting IP Traffic
Black, Uyless. 2000. 286 pages.
Categories: Reference |
I'm not sure it's useful to start off the book explaining things like denial of service attacks, salami
attacks, viruses, worms, and Trojan horses, and then not talk about technology that addresses these
concerns in the remainder of the book. Additionally, this book entitled "Internet Security
Protocols", but SSL is not covered at all (it's not even in the index) and TLS gets only about
a page worth of coverage. I don't really understand why some obscure topics were beaten to
death, while other topics (some worthy) were completely ignored.
Even so, the book gives nice coverage of RADIUS, DIAMETER, and IPSec. The ISAKMP
and IKE read a bit too much like RFCs.
