.Net Development Security Solutions Paperback - 2003 - 1st Edition

From the publisher

The .NET Framework offers new, more effective ways to secure your Web and LAN-based applications. .NET Development Security Solutions uses detailed, code-intensive examples--lots of them--to teach you the right techniques for most scenarios you're likely to encounter. This is not an introduction to security; it's an advanced cookbook that shows experienced programmers how to meet tough security challenges:

• Recognize and avoid dangerous traps--including holes in .NET
• Work fluently with both role-based and code access security
• Maximize the security advantages of policies and code groups
• Promote security using Active Directory
• Secure data with .NET cryptographic techniques
• Meet the toughest LAN security requirements
• Tackle special security issues associated with Web and wireless applications
• Implement Win32 API security in managed applications

Uniting this instruction is a coherent, cohesive mindset that will help you take the human factor into account at every step. You'll become technically proficient with all the tools at your disposal--and, at the same time, you'll learn to make your solutions more powerful by crafting them in ways that dovetail with users' needs--and foibles--and anticipate cracker exploits.
