Stamatios Kartalopoulos, “Security of Information and Communication Networks”, IEEE/Wiley, 2009, ISBN 978-0470290255.
This CHOICE awarded book provides a complete conceptual treatment of securing information and transporting it over a secure network in a manner that does not require a strong mathematical background. It stresses why information security is important, what is being done about it, how it applies to networks, and an overview of its key issues. It is written for anyone who needs to understand these important topics at a conceptual rather than a technical level.
Anestis Karasaridis, “DNS Security”, Amazon (KDP), 2012.
The objective of this book is to give the reader an in-depth understanding of how the Domain Name System (DNS) works, its security vulnerabilities, how to monitor and detect security related events and how to prevent and mitigate attacks. After reading the book, the reader will be able to recognize the major issues around DNS security, and know the best practices to setup, operate, and protect DNS service. The book also explores active areas of research and development in anomaly detection, authentication, and attack mitigation. Sections of the book can be used in academic courses as assigned readings.
Mohssen Mohammed and Al-Sakib Khan Pathan, “Automatic Defense against Zero-day Polymorphic Worms in Communication Networks”, CRC Press, Taylor and Francis Group, 2013, ISBN 978-1466557277.
Able to propagate quickly and change their payload with each infection, polymorphic worms have been able to evade even the most advanced intrusion detection systems. And, because zero-day worms require only seconds to launch flooding attacks on your servers, using traditional methods such as manually creating and storing signatures to defend against these threats is just too slow. Bringing together critical knowledge and research on the subject, this book details a new approach for generating automated signatures for unknown polymorphic worms. It presents experimental results on a new method for polymorphic worm detection and examines signature-generation algorithms and double-honeynet systems.

Andrei Gurtov, “Host Identity Protocol (HIP): Towards the Secure Mobile Internet”, Wiley, 2008, ISBN 978-0-470-99790-1.
One of the challenges facing the current Internet architecture is the incorporation of mobile and multi-homed terminals (hosts), and an overall lack of protection against Denial-of-Service attacks and identity spoofing. The Host Identity Protocol (HIP) is being developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as an integrated solution to these problems. The book presents a well-structured, readable and compact overview of the core protocol with relevant extensions to the Internet architecture and infrastructure. The covered topics include IPsec, Overlay Routable Cryptographic Hash Identifiers, extensions to the Domain Name System, IPv4 and IPv6 interoperability, and support for legacy applications.

Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) until recently was considered as a medium for only public safety applications. In the book new advances in in Channel assignment and multiple access techniques , video transmission, wireless LAN integration, and the establishment of multiple wireless mesh networks are examined from the security point of view and is shown that TETRA can be used for large scale systems security such as Olympic Games and thus become the vehicle for a Global Security tool.
Peter Stavroulakis (Ed.), “Chaos Applications in Telecommunications”, CRC Taylor and Francis, 2006, ISBN 8493-3832-8.
Up until this book was published, Chaos was not considered as a technique that enhances greatly security. Besides showing how classical transmission and reception methods can be put on a more secure framework by using chaotic techniques, it is shown that it even outperforms the other classical method for security which is based on spread spectrum. This volume provides the essential information for those who wish to have an integrated view on how an established concept such as chaos can open new roads in the CIS field.
