Distributed systems security issues, processes, and solutions

Edición de la obra Distributed systems security issues, processes, and solutions

This book outlines and describes the impact of the latest trends in distributed systems on security threats, and solutions addressing these threats; with an exhaustive overview of the underlying theoretical underpinnings of security technologies, along with an in-depth coverage of the existing and upcoming security threats and vulnerabilities across different layers of a modern day distributed systems architecture. The book also looks at how existing solutions can be leveraged or enhanced to proactively meet the dynamic and evolving needs of security for the next-generation distributed systems of tomorrow. The book also discusses the applications of the technologies and solutions discussed, providing case studies of real distributed systems that the authors have been involved in architecting, developing and running to meet very stringent reliability and security requirements.
