Cybersecurity: A Practical Engineering Approach introduces the implementation of a secure cyber architecture, beginning with the identification of security risks. It then builds solutions to mitigate risks by considering the technological justification of the solutions as well as their efficiency. The process follows an engineering process model. Each module builds on a subset of the risks, discussing the knowledge necessary to approach a solution, followed by the security control architecture design and the implementation. Kerberos is a network authentication protocol, aiming to achieve strong authentication using secret-key cryptography, in a local network environment with shared services. In fact, it embraces several sub protocols to accomplish that goal. Pentest (short for Penetration Test, and also referred to by Ethical Hacking) is a fundamental activity in Cybersecurity, aiming to test a computerized system against possible failures resulting from simulated malicious activity.
