Security is one of the most significant components in wireless systems to ensure the integrity of communications among terminals, networks, and services. As the field of wireless communications expands and inundates personal and professional lives worldwide, up-to-date wireless security research and knowledge becomes increasingly more vital to society.
The Handbook of Research on Wireless Security combines research from esteemed experts on security issues in various wireless communications, recent advances in wireless security, the wireless security model, and future directions in wireless security.
As an innovative and current reference source for students, educators, faculty members, researchers, engineers in the field of wireless security, this handbook will make an invaluable addition to any library collection.
Preface
Wireless networks have been seen unprecedented growth in the past few years. Wireless technologies
provide users with a variety of benefits like portability, flexibility, increased productivity, and lower installation costs.
Various wireless technologies, from wireless local area network (WLAN) and Bluetooth to WiMAX and third generation (3G) have been developed.
Each of these technologies has its own unique applications and characteristics.
For example, a WLAN can provide the wireless users with high bandwidth data communication in a restricted and dense area (hotpot).
Ad hoc networks, like those enabled by Bluetooth, allow data synchronization with network systems and application sharing between
devices.
WiMAX can provide high-speed, high bandwidth efficiency, and high-capacity multimedia services for residential as well as enterprise applications.
However, any wireless technology is inherently risky.
It has the same risks as the wired networks as well as new risks brought by the wireless connectivity.
There have been many reports of security weaknesses
and problems related to different wireless technologies, which make wireless security quite a hot
research topic recently, both in the academia and industry.
Wireless security is a very broad area as there are so many different wireless technologies existing.
Each wireless technology has its own architecture, algorithms, and protocols. Different wireless technologies have their own application areas and different security concerns, requirements, and solutions.
To this end, we want to bring up the Handbook of Research on Wireless Security to serve as a single
comprehensive reference in the field of wireless security.
In this book, the basic concepts, terms, protocols, systems, architectures, and case studies in the wireless security are provided.
It identifies the fundamental problems, key challenges, and future directions in designing secure wireless systems.
It covers a wide spectrum of topics in a variety of wireless networks, including attacks, secure routing, encryption, decryption, confidentiality, integrity, key management, identity management, and also security protocols in standards.
The chapters of this book are authoritatively contributed by a group of internationally renowned
experts on wireless security.
They are organized in four sections:
• Section I: Security Fundamentals
• Section II: Security in 3G/B3G/4G
• Section III: Security in Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks
• Section IV: Security in Wireless PAN/LAN/MAN
