| Part II: Network Protection | |||
| B | Ed 1 / Ch 3 | Review of TCP/IP Internetworking | Even if your students have taken networking, you probably want to do a review. TCP/IP knowledge is critical in network protection. |
| C | Ed 1 / Ch 4 | Attack Methods | This chapter sets the tone for the protection chapters by showing students the kinds of attacks that companies will face. |
| D | Ed 2 / Ch 4 |
The
Elements of Cryptography |
Edition 1 did not introduce cryptographic concepts until much later. Although there were reasons for doing this, it caused many problems. Crypto underlies almost all aspects of security. |
| E | Ed 2 / Ch 5 | Cryptographic Systems | This chapter covers the most important cryptographic systems, that protect transmission, including IPsec and SSL/TLS. |
| F | Ed 2/ Ch 6 | Access Control and Site Security | Controlling access to resources also is critical to almost all other aspects of protection. This chapter discusses both access control methods that are based on cryptography and those that are not. |
| G | Ed 2 / Ch 7 | Firewalls | Firewalls and IPSs are mainstays of corporate security protection. This chapter is covered after cryptographic systems because encrypted transmissions can not be filtered by firewalls unless special precautions are taken. |
| Part III: Host Protection | |||
| H | Ed 1 / Ch 6 | Host Security | Some attack packets inevitably get through to corporate hosts. This chapter looks at hardware and operating system security. |
| I | Ed 1 / Ch 9 | Application Security: Electronic Commerce and E-Mail | The most common way to take over hosts today is to take advantage of security vulnerabilities in applications, including gullibility among users. |
| Part IV: Response | |||
| J | Ed 1 / Ch 10 | Incident Response, Business Continuity, and Disaster Recovery | Protections always break down sometimes, requiring corporations to enter the response phase of the plan-protect-respond cycle. This chapter includes responses both to security attacks and also to natural disasters. |
| Part V: Management | |||
| K | Ed 1 / Ch 11 | Managing the Security Function | Now that students understand individual technologies and how to manage them, they can understand the overall management of the security function. |
| Part VI: Security and Society | |||
| L | Ed 1 / Ch 12 | The Broader Picture | Security professionals are often asked to comment on major policy matters facing society. This chapter moves beyond the corporation into broader society. |
