Wireless And Mobile Security
Wireless and mobile networks are familiar from everyday life, but present a distinctive mix of security challenges, as a result of trade-offs between power, cost, physical propagation characteristics, interfaces, modes of use, and management. Moreover, as they often are associated with the individual,they are often of central importance in concerns of privacy. The purpose of this course is to familiarise participants with threats, vulnerabilities,and security countermeasures of core technologies such as WLAN, Bluetooth, GSM, and UMTS, as well as new and emerging wireless technologies, such as ZigBee, wireless mesh networks, and RFIDs.
