Securing Emerging Wireless Systems Lower-layer Approaches

Securing Emerging Wireless Systems: Lower-layer Approaches Aims To Fill A Growing Need In The Research Community For A Reference That Describes The Lower-layer Approaches As A Foundation Towards Secure And Reliable Wireless Systems. Whereas Most Of The References Typically Address Cryptographic Attacks By Using Conventional Network Security Approches For Securing Wireless Systems, The Proposed Book Will Be Differentiated From The Rest Of The Market By Its Focus On Non-cryptographic Attacks That Cannot Easily Be Addressed By Using Traditional Methods, And Further By Presenting A Collection Of Defense Mechanisms That Operate At The Lower-layers Of The Protocol Stack And Can Defend Wireless Systems Before The Effects Of Attacks Propagate Up To Higher-level Applications And Services. The Book Will Focus On Fundamental Security Problems That Involve Properties Unique To Wireless Systems, Such As The Characteristics Of Radio Propagation, Or The Location Of Communicating Entities, Or The Properties Of The Medium Access Control Layer.
