The management of services and operations in today’s organizations are - coming increasingly dependent on their enterprise local area network (enterprise LAN). An enterprise LAN consists of a set of network zones (logical group of networkelements)correspondingto di?erent departments orsections,connected through various interface switches (typically, Layer-3 switches). The network service accesses between these zones and also with the external network (e. g. , Internet) are governed by a global network security policy of the organization. This global policy is de?ned as a collection of service access rules across various network zones where the services referred network applications conforming to TCP/IP protocol. For example, some of the known network services aressh, t- net,http etc. In reality, the security policy may be incompletely speci?ed; which explicitly states the “permit” and “deny” access rules between speci?c network zones keeping remaining service access paths as unspeci?ed. The global security policy is realized in the network by con?guring the n- work interfaces with appropriate sets of access control rules (ACLs). One of the major challenges in network security management is ensuring the conformation of the distributed security implementations with the global security policy.
This book gives a detailed overview of SIP specific security issues and how to solve them While the standards and products for VoIP and SIP services have reached market maturity, security and regulatory aspects of such services are still being discussed. SIP itself specifies only a basic set of security mechanisms that cover a subset of possible security issues. In this book, the authors survey important aspects of securing SIP-based services. This encompasses a description of the problems themselves and the standards-based solutions for such problems. Where a standards-based solution has not been defined, the alternatives are discussed and the benefits and constraints of the different solutions are highlighted. Key Features: Will help the readers to understand the actual problems of using and developing VoIP services, and to distinguish between real problems and the general hype of VoIP security Discusses key aspects of SIP security including authentication, integrity, confidentiality, non-repudiation and signalling Assesses the real security issues facing users of SIP, and details the latest theoretical and practical solutions to SIP Security issues Covers secure SIP access, inter-provider secure communication, media security, security of the IMS infrastructures as well as VoIP services vulnerabilities and countermeasures against Denial-of-Service attacks and VoIP spam This book will be of interest to IT staff involved in deploying and developing VoIP, service users of SIP, network engineers, designers and managers. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying data/voice/multimedia communications as well as researchers in academia and industry will also find this book valuable.
Measurement technologies and instrumentation have a multidisciplinary impact in the field of applied sciences. These engineering technologies are necessary in processing information required for renewable energy, biotechnology, power quality, and nanotechnology. Advanced Instrument Engineering: Measurement, Calibration, and Design presents theoretical and practical aspects on the activities concerning measurement technologies and instrumentation. This wide range of new ideas in the field of measurements and instrumentation is useful to researchers, scientists, practitioners, and technicians for their area of expertise.
An unprecedented look into the present and future of next generation networks, services, and management in the telecommunications industry The telecommunications industry has advanced in rapid, significant, and unpredictable ways into the twenty-first century. Next Generation Telecommunications Networks, Services, and Management guides the global industry and academia even further by providing an in-depth look at current and developing trends, as well as examining the complex issues of developing, introducing, and managing cutting-edge telecommunications technologies. This is an orchestrated set of original chapters written expressly for this book by topic experts from around the globe. It addresses next generation technologies and architectures, with the focus on networks, services, and management. Key topics include: Opportunities and challenges of next generation telecommunications networks, services, and management Tri/Quad Play and IP-based networks and services Fault, Configuration, Accounting, Performance, and Security (FCAPS) requirements Convergence and an important convergence vehicle, IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Next generation operations and network management architecture Ad hoc wireless and sensor networks and their management Next generation operations and network management standards from a strategic perspective A defining look at the future in this field This book will serve as a contemporary reference for the growing global community of telecommunication and information professionals in industry, government, and academia. It will be important to faculty and graduate students of telecommunications as a graduate textbook.
These are the proceedings of IPTComm 2008 – the Second Conference on Pr- ciples,Systems andApplications ofIP Telecommunications–heldinHeidelberg, Germany, July 1–2, 2008. The scope of the conference included recent advances in the domains of convergent networks, VoIP security and multimedia service environments for next generation networks. The conference attracted 56 s- missions, of which the Program Committee selected 16 papers for publication. The review process followed strict standards: each paper received at least three reviews. We would like to thank all Program Committee members and external reviewers for their contribution to the review process. The conference attracted attendees from academia and industry. Its excellence is re?ected in the quality of the contributed papers and invited talks. Additional industry talks and - plied demonstrations assured a synergy between academic and applied research. We would also like to acknowledge and thank our sponsors, many of whom s- portedtheconferencegenerously:NEC,AT&T,Codenomicon,IPTEGO,EADS, Cellcrypt, MuDynamics, SIP Forum and EURESCOM, Finally, we would like to thank all the researchers and authors from all over the world who submitted their work to the IPTComm 2008 conference.
The beginning of the twenty-first century is characterized by global markets, and the mobility of people is becoming an important fact of life. Consequently, the mobile user is demanding appropriate technical solutions to make use of customized information and communication services. In this context the notion of next-generation networks (NGNs), which are driven by the convergence of the entertainment sector, the mobile Internet, and fixed/mobile telecommunications, is emerging. Such NGNs are aggregating a variety of different access networks and supporting the seamless connection of an open set of end-user devices, and due to the adoption of an all-IP network paradigm they enable a much better integration of voice and data services. Coincidently the buzzword ‘fixed mobile convergence’ (FMC) describes the current trend towards providing common services across fixed and mobile networks resulting in the medium term in the full integration of fixed and mobile telecommunication networks. The adoption of appropriate middleware technologies and the provision of - called service delivery platforms driven by the ongoing innovation in the field of information technologies provides today the technical foundation for supporting terminal, personal and service mobility and thus the implementation of real seamless information and communication services. Furthermore, users are nowadays looking, in light of an omnipresent service environment, for a much higher degree of customization and context awareness in the services they use. The papers in this volume look at these enabling mobility-aware technologies and their use for implementing mobility-aware and context-aware applications.
