It is a great pleasure for presenting First Edition of Revised syllabus of the Book “Security in Computing” to the students of B.Sc. (IT). This book is written to cover all the topics of syllabus prescribed by the University of Mumbai for T.Y.B.Sc. (IT).
Tablets, smartphones, TV set-top boxes, GPS navigation devices, exercise monitors, home security stations, even washers and dryers come with Internet connections by which data from and about you go to places over which you have little visibility or control. At the same time, the list of retailers suffering massive losses of customer data continues to grow. On one hand people want the convenience and benefits that added connectivity brings, while on the other hand, people are worried, and some are seriously harmed by the impact of such incidents. Computer security brings these two threads together as technology races forward with smart products whose designers omit the basic. This book includes all the related topics with variety of examples which is understandable to students.
Unit 1 contains three chapters which covers Information Security Overview, Risk Analysis and Secure Design Principles.
Unit 2 contains three chapters which covers Authentication and Authorization, Storage Security and Database Security.
Unit 3 contains four chapters which covers Secure Network Design, Network Device Security, Firewalls and Wireless Network Security.
