Book synopsis

In this book, the authors of the 20-year best-selling classic Security in Computing will give you a fresh, contemporary, and powerfully relevant new approach to introducing computer security. Organized around attacks and mitigations, the Pfleegers' new Analyzing Computer Security will attract your attention by building on the high-profile security failures they may have already encountered in the popular media. Each section starts with an attack description. Next, the authors explain the vulnerabilities that have allowed this attack to occur. With this foundation in place, they systematically present to you today's most effective countermeasures for blocking or weakening the attack. One step at a time, you will progress from attack/problem/harm to solution/protection/mitigation, building the powerful real-world problem solving skills you need to succeed as information security professionals. Analyzing Computer Security addresses crucial contemporary computer security themes throughout, including effective security management and risk analysis; economics and quantitative study; privacy, ethics, and laws; and the use of overlapping controls. The authors also present to you significant new material on computer forensics, insiders, human factors, and trust.
