More Description This book provides an advanced understanding of cyber threats as well as the risks companies are facing. It includes a detailed analysis of many technologies and approaches important to decreasing, mitigating or remediating those threats and risks. Cyber security technologies discussed in this book are futuristic and current. Advanced security topics such as secure remote work, data security, network security, application and device security, cloud security, and cyber risk and privacy are presented in this book. At the end of every chapter, an evaluation of the topic from a CISO's perspective is provided. This book also addresses quantum computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning for cyber security
The opening chapters describe the power and danger of quantum computing, proposing two solutions for protection from probable quantum computer attacks: the tactical enhancement of existing algorithms to make them quantum-resistant, and the strategic implementation of quantum-safe algorithms and cryptosystems. The following chapters make the case for using supervised and unsupervised AI/ML to develop predictive, prescriptive, cognitive and auto-reactive threat detection, mitigation, and remediation capabilities against advanced attacks perpetrated by sophisticated threat actors, APT and polymorphic/metamorphic malware.
CISOs must be concerned about current on-going sophisticated cyber-attacks, and can address them with advanced security measures. The latter half of this book discusses some current sophisticated cyber-attacks and available protective measures enabled by the advancement of cybersecurity capabilities in various IT domains. Chapters 6-10 discuss secure remote work; chapters 11-17, advanced data security paradigms; chapters 18-28, Network Security; chapters 29-35, application and device security; chapters 36-39, Cloud security; and chapters 40-46 organizational cyber risk measurementand event probability.
Security and IT engineers, administrators and developers, CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, and CFOs will want to purchase this book. Risk personnel, CROs, IT and Security Auditors as well as security researchers and journalists will also find this useful.
