Junos Enterprise Routing

After you’ve spent some time in the networking field, you tend to notice that there is rarely a single way to do things, and in many cases, rarely a single, precise definition for terms. After all, often a network engineer’s best answer is “it depends.” Such is the case with enterprise routing, so let’s start off with a definition question: what is an enterprise network? Is it a large…

IT Architecture FOR Dummies

The enterprise begins when you carefully put the first two computers together, and complexity grows with every step thereafter. Haphazard IT building practices can easily lead to an enterprise network that is poorly planned or composed of random, one-off projects undertaken as standalone goals. An e-mail consolidation project can unexpectedly derail concurrent licensing projects intended to vas…

iOS and OS X Network Programming Cookbook

The Berkeley Socket API (where API stands for Application Programming Interface) is a set of standard functions used for inter-process network communications. Other socket APIs also exist; however, the Berkeley socket is generally regarded as the standard. The Berkeley Socket API was originally introduced in 1983 when 4.2 BSD was released. The API has evolved with very few modifications into a …

Hardening Cisco Routers

When asking about Information Security (InfoSec), most people immediately think about stolen credit cards, defaced web sites, and teenage hackers with names like B@D@pple. An InfoSec professional might extend the list to items like firewalls, Vir- tual Private Networks (VPN)s, penetration testing, and risk analysis. What is almost never listed is router security—network security, yes, but nev…

Symplectic Methods in Harmonic Analysis and in Mathematical Physics

Harmonic analysis is one of the most active and fastest growing parts of both pure and applied mathematics. It has gone far beyond its primary goal, which was to study the representation of functions or signals as superpositions of trigonometric functions (Fourier series). The interest in harmonic analysis has always been great because of the wealth of its applications, and it plays nowadays a …

The Politics of International Economic Law

n times of crisis, we are forcefully reminded of the links between politics and international economic law.1 Indeed, the meltdown in world markets has refocused attention on how the fingerprints of the “visible hand” can be seen all over the institutions that underpin the rules of globalization. From trade and investment to finance, governments are under pressure to enforce, resist, and rew…

FUNDAMENTALS OF SENSOR NETWORK PROGRAMMING

Software that drives the operations of sensors and communication among sensors is basic to any meaningful application of sensor networks. The goal of this book is to provide an understanding of how this software functions; how it allows the sensors to gather information, process it, and interact with each other in networks; and how these networks interact with the physical world. One aim of thi…

Expert Oracle Practices

To secure an Oracle database, you must modify your mindset to think about securing the data and not about securing the software. To secure the software is literally impossible, because the software is almost infinitely configurable and the software does not know anything about your system (apart from what you www.it-ebooks.info CHAPTER 15 ■ SECURING DATA 532 tell it), your applicatio…

Essentials of Taxation

Taxes have a pervasive impact on our lives. They affect every individual in the United States from birth to death, and even beyond death (through taxation of an individual’s estate). Taxes likewise affect every business from formation of the business entity to its operations, distribution of profits to owners, and ultimate disposition or liquidation. Despite the wide-ranging impact of taxes,…

Ethernet Switches

Ethernet switches, also known as bridges, are basic building blocks of networks, and are so commonly used that you may not give them a second thought. It’s possible to build networks without knowing very much about how switches work. However, when you build larger network systems, it helps to understand both what goes on inside a switch and how the standards make it possible for switches to w…

Computer Security – ESORICS 2013

For many decades multi-party computation (MPC) had been a predominantly theoretic endeavour in cryptography, but in recent years interest has arisen on the practical side. This has resulted in various implementation improvements and such protocols are becoming more applicable to practical situations. A key part in this transformation from theory to practice is in adapting theoretical protocols …

Just Spring Integration

It’s a tough challenge to find the right depth and the right level of abstraction when introducing a new technology. A book can go too deep, and risk miring the reader in technological minutiae. This is hardly helpful, and—more often than not—it’s boring. A book can also stay at a very abstract level, and revel in theory, but even this is boring and useless for someone who hopes to achi…

Cloud Security and Privacy

To understand what cloud computing is and is not, it is important to understand how this model of computing has evolved. As Alvin Toffler notes in his famous book, The Third Wave (Bantam, 1980), civilization has progressed in waves (three of them to date: the first wave was agricultural societies, the second was the industrial age, and the third is the information age). Within each wave, there …

Firewalls have ample recognition as key elements in the field of protecting networks. Even though this is not a new subject, many important concepts and resources that could be helpful to designing a secure network are often overlooked or even ignored. This book is targeted at unveiling the potential of Cisco Firewall functionalities and prod- ucts and how they can be grouped on a structured …

CentOS System Administration Essentials

You may have some experience with vi, or what is now known as Vim (which is when simply put—vi improved). All too often, I find that those first experiences have never been good ones or to be looked back upon with much fondness. Guiding you through the initially unfathomable regime of vi, we are going to make sure that you are the master of vi and you leave wanting to use this tool from the g…

Building a Home Security System with Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Pi is a powerful, low-cost, credit-card sized computer, which lends itself perfectly as the controller of a sophisticated home security system. Using the available on-board interfaces, the Raspberry Pi can be expanded to allow the connection of a virtually infinite number of security sensors and devices. The Raspberry Pi has the processing power and interfaces available to build a…
