In Beautiful Security, today's security experts offer a collection of essays that describe bold and extraordinary methods to secure computer systems in the face of ever-increasing threats. You'll learn how new and more aggressive security measures work -- and where they will lead us. This far-reaching discussion takes you into the techniques, technology, ethics, and laws at the center of the biggest revolution in the history of network security.
Although most people don't give security much attention until their personal or business systems are attacked, this thought-provoking anthology demonstrates that digital security is not only worth thinking about, it's also a fascinating topic. Criminals succeed by exercising enormous creativity, and those defending against them must do the same.
Beautiful Security explores this challenging subject with insightful essays and analysis on topics that include:
The underground economy for personal information: how it works, the relationships among criminals, and some of the new ways they pounce on their prey
How social networking, cloud computing, and other popular trends help or hurt our online security
How metrics, requirements gathering, design, and law can take security to a higher level
The real, little-publicized history of PGP
This book includes contributions from:
Peiter "Mudge" Zatko
Jim Stickley
Elizabeth Nichols
Chenxi Wang
Ed Bellis
Ben Edelman
Phil Zimmermann and Jon Callas
Kathy Wang
Mark Curphey
John McManus
James Routh
Randy V. Sabett
Anton Chuvakin
Grant Geyer and Brian Dunphy
Peter Wayner
Michael Wood and Fernando Francisco
