Publisher's Synopsis
Wireless Ad Hoc Sensor Networks offer certain capabilities and enhancements in operational efficiency in civilian applications, as well as assisting in international effort to increase alertness to potential threats. However, although Mobile and Wireless Networking environments eliminate many of the problems associated with traditional wired networks, the new security and privacy risks introduced by such environments need to be reduced by exploiting appropriate security measures and safeguards, ensuring an acceptable level of overall residual hazard.
