The need for information privacy and security continues to grow and gets increasingly recognized. In this regard, Privacy-preserving Attribute-based Credentials (Privacy-ABCs) are elegant techniques to provide secure yet privacy-respecting access control. This book addresses the federation and interchangeability of Privacy-ABC technologies. It defines a common, unified architecture for Privacy-ABC systems that allows their respective features to be compared and combined Further, this book presents open reference implementations of selected Privacy-ABC systems and explains how to deploy...

In the last few years, biometric techniques have proven their ability to provide secure access to shared resources in various domains. Furthermore, software agents and multi-agent systems (MAS) have shown their efficiency in resolving critical network problems.
Iris Biometric Model for Secured Network Access proposes a new model, the IrisCryptoAgentSystem (ICAS), which is based on a biometric method for authentication using the iris of the eyes and an asymmetric cryptography method using "Rivest-Shamir-Adleman" (RSA) in an agent-based architecture. It focuses on the development...

Among the features that make Noiseless Steganography: The Key to Covert Communications a first of its kind:

• The first to comprehensively cover Linguistic Steganography
• The first to comprehensively cover Graph Steganography
• The first to comprehensively cover Game Steganography

Although the goal of steganography is to prevent adversaries from suspecting the existence of covert communications, most books on the subject present outdated steganography approaches that are detectable by human and/or machine examinations. These...

Learn the basics of ethical hacking and gain insights into the logic, algorithms, and syntax of Python. This book will set you up with a foundation that will help you understand the advanced concepts of hacking in the future. Learn Ethical Hacking with Python 3 touches the core issues of cyber security: in the modern world of interconnected computers and the Internet, security is increasingly becoming one of the most important features of programming.

Ethical hacking is closely related to Python. For this reason this book is organized in three parts. The first part deals...

A mathematical tour of some of the greatest unsolved ciphers of all time

In 1953, a man was found dead from cyanide poisoning near the Philadelphia airport with a picture of a Nazi aircraft in his wallet. Taped to his abdomen was an enciphered message. In 1912, a book dealer named Wilfrid Voynich came into possession of an illuminated cipher manuscript once belonging to Emperor Rudolf II, who was obsessed with alchemy and the occult. Wartime codebreakers tried--and failed--to unlock the book's secrets, and it remains an enigma to this day. In this lively and entertaining book,...

This book constitutes the revised selected papers of the Second International Conference on Information Systems Security and Privacy, ICISSP 2016, held in Rome, Italy, in February 2016.

The 9 full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 91 submissions. They are dealing with topics such as data and software security; privacy and confidentiality; mobile systems security; biometric authentication; privacy in social media.

Convergence security can be defined as the security created by merging the physical and information security or the combining security with other non-IT technologies. Convergence Security Journal is an open access journal dedicated to the publication and discussion of research articles, short communications, and review papers on all areas of convergence security. The primary objective is to publish a high-quality journal with free Internet-based access for researchers and other interested people throughout the world. Papers published by the journal represent important advances of...
