Dear All,
 
I would like to know what would be a good place to learn about security
in ad hoc networks. At the moment I have little/no knowledge on security
mechanisms as my background is more routing oriented.
 
The list of security papers compiled by Feng has been very helpful, but
I find that I lack the background to understand some of the concepts.
Would I need to read up whole books such as 'Applied Cryptography' by
Schnier etc, or is this not necessary.
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Regards,
Piyush Khengar
