A fundamental and comprehensive framework for network security designed for military, government, industry, and academic network personnel. Scientific validation of "security on demand" through computer modeling and simulation methods. The book presents an example wherein the framework is utilized to integrate security into the operation of a network. As a result of the integration, the inherent attributes of the network may be exploited to reduce the impact of security on network performance and the security availability may be increased down to the user level. The example selected is the ATM network which is gaining widespread acceptance and use.

From the reviews:

�Network desingers, engineers, practitioners, and managers will find in this book a systematica and practical approach to hardening networks against attacks. The book is aimed at a wide audience that also includes graduate and senior undergraduate students, policy makers, and consultants in various sectors, including industry, miltary and government....this interesting and information-packed book fulfils its purpose and will be very useful for students, network security professionals, and decision makers. ��ACM COMPUTER REVIEWS

"Teaching or studying asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) networks? Want a reference book on the security aspects? Then this book could be for you! ... this book, with its very thorough modelling of potential attacks on ATM networks, should be required reading for those professional systems engineers responsible for the security of such systems. The book covers its chosen topic very well ... ." (Keith Wain, www.ics.heacademy.ac.uk, February, 2003)
