In the first part, a general overview on
Internet
& Information System Security is given
for elaborating the basic security concepts and covering
aspects. In the
Access Control
& Authentication section, we discussed
how to authenticate the user identification, prevent
and control invalid access. The involved techniques
include application of smart cards, biometric authentication
and digital signature etc. The
Encryption
section compiled many common used standard algorithms,
such as DES, AES, RSA, MD5, SHA, Quantum, DNA and
so on. The main part of course is the Public Key Infrastructure
(PKI). In addition, the voice encryption issue is
touched also. In the
Security
Standards & Protocols section, there are
many of useful security standards and protocols collected,
like SET, SSL, PGP, Ipsec, DNSSec, S/MIME, L2TP, PPTP,
XrML, SAML, IPSP, IPSRA, Msec, TLS etc. Security is
not just a technical problem. Robust
security needs going together with good
Security
Management which provides with a series of
reliable security solutions, for example, security
strategy planning, best security practices, guidance,
checklists and management procedures etc. The
Intrusion
Detection/Prevention section introduced related
techniques, methods, and experiences, including the
Firewall technique.
High reliable system should be survived even after
an invalid attack. It will be an important issue discussed
in the
System Survivability
section. In this column, we also discussed the
Protection
Of Digital Contents & Copyright issue,
and the application of digital watermarking techniques.
Also, one section referred the
Privacy
issue, and related legislation. To relieve the concerns
of customers, the enterprise should consider to set
up their own clear policy and rules for protecting
customers' privacy. Similar to others, this column
