The first-ever introduction to the full range of cybersecurity challenges.
Cybersecurity is crucial for preserving freedom in a connected world. Securing customer and business data, preventing election interference and the spread of disinformation, and understanding the vulnerabilities of key infrastructural systems are just a few of the areas in which cybersecurity professionals are indispensable. This textbook provides a comprehensive, student-oriented introduction to this capacious, interdisciplinary subject.
Cybersecurity in Context covers both the policy and practical dimensions of the field. Beginning with an introduction to cybersecurity and its major challenges, it proceeds to discuss the key technologies which have brought cybersecurity to the fore, its theoretical and methodological frameworks and the legal and enforcement dimensions of the subject. The result is a cutting-edge guide to all key aspects of one of this century’s most important fields.
Because cybersecurity changes so rapidly, we have attempted to set down the basics here. The textbook sets up instructors to discuss the controversies of the day in the classroom. Our goal is to explain both the technological realities of the Internet and how those realities interact with cybersecurity policy and regulation. We have omitted many of the specific statutes and regulations underlying those policies because they change so rapidly. Instead we focus on the reasons, purposes, and history of cybersecurity policy. We think that students who know these elements will be better analysts.
Cybersecurity in Context is ideal for students in introductory cybersecurity classes, and for IT professionals looking to ground themselves in this essential field.
“A comprehensive, multidisciplinary introduction to the technology and policy of cybersecurity. Start here if you are looking for an entry point to cyber.” - Bruce Schneier, author of A Hacker’s Mind: How the Powerful Bend Society’s Rules, and How to Bend Them Back
