Develop better cybersecurity by taking a wider view of the threats Many books on cybersecurity focus on technical responses to the cyber criminal, the cyber activist and the state-sponsored hacker. As important as this is, relatively inexperienced hackers can still break into systems that have not taken account of human fallibility and other known vulnerabilities. Cybersecurity is much more than technology CyberWar, CyberTerror, CyberCrime and CyberActivism encourages cybersecurity professionals to take a wider view of what cybersecurity means and to make the most of international standards and best practice to create a culture of cybersecurity awareness that complements technology-based defenses. This second edition analyzes the changing threats in the cyber landscape and includes an updated body of knowledge that describes how to acquire, develop, and sustain a secure information environment that goes beyond technology, and it creates a cyber-aware organizational culture that is more robust and better able to deal with a wider range of threats.
