Computer and network systems have given us unlimited opportunities of
reducing cost, improving efficiency, and increasing revenues, as
demonstrated by an increasing number of computer and network
applications. Yet, our dependence on computer and network systems has
also exposed us to new risks, which threaten the security of, and
present new challenges for protecting our assets and information on
computer and network systems. The reliability of computer and network
systems ultimately depends on security and quality of service (QoS)
performance. This book presents quantitative modeling and analysis
techniques to address these numerous challenges in cyber attack
prevention and detection for security and QoS, including:
- the latest research on computer and network behavior under attack
and normal use conditions;
- new design principles and algorithms, which can be used by engineers
and practitioners to build secure computer and network systems, enhance
security practice and move to providing QoS assurance on the Internet;
- mathematical and statistical methods for achieving the accuracy and
timeliness of cyber attack detection with the lowest computational
overhead;
- guidance on managing admission control, scheduling, reservation and
service of computer and network jobs to assure the service stability and
end-to-end delay of those jobs even under Denial of Service attacks or
abrupt demands. Secure Computer and Network Systems: Modeling, Analysis
and Design is an up-to-date resource for practising engineers and
researchers involved in security, reliability and quality management of
computer and network systems. It is also a must-read for postgraduate
students developing advanced technologies for improving computer network
dependability.
