How to solve security issues and problems arising in distributedsystems.
Security is one of the leading concerns in developing dependabledistributed systems of today, since the integration of differentcomponents in a distributed manner creates new security problemsand issues. Service oriented architectures, the Web, grid computingand virtualization - form the backbone of today'sdistributed systems. A lens to security issues in distributedsystems is best provided via deeper exploration of securityconcerns and solutions in these technologies.
Distributed Systems Security provides a holistic insightinto current security issues, processes, and solutions, and mapsout future directions in the context of today's distributedsystems. This insight is elucidated by modeling of modern daydistributed systems using a four-tier logical model -hostlayer, infrastructure layer, application layer, and service layer(bottom to top). The authors provide an in-depth coverage ofsecurity threats and issues across these tiers. Additionally theauthors describe the approaches required for efficient securityengineering, alongside exploring how existing solutions can beleveraged or enhanced to proactively meet the dynamic needs ofsecurity for the next-generation distributed systems. The practicalissues thereof are reinforced via practical case studies.
Distributed Systems Security:
* Presents an overview of distributed systems security issues,including threats, trends, standards and solutions.
* Discusses threats and vulnerabilities in different layersnamely the host, infrastructure, application, and service layer toprovide a holistic and practical, contemporary view of enterprisearchitectures.
* Provides practical insights into developing current-daydistributed systems security using realistic case studies.
This book will be of invaluable interest to software engineers,developers, network professionals and technical/enterprisearchitects working in the field of distributed systems security.Managers and CIOs, researchers and advanced students will also findthis book insightful.
