“A masterful guide to the interplay between cybersecurity and its societal, economic, and political impacts, equipping students with the critical thinking needed to navigate and influence security for our digital world.” —JOSIAH DYKSTRA, Trail of Bits “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 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. Cybersecurity in Context is ideal for students in introductory cybersecurity classes, and for IT professionals looking to ground themselves in this essential field.

We have received numerous requests to provide a summary glossary for our publications and other relevant sources, and to make the glossary available to practitioners. As a result of these requests, this glossary of common security terms has been extracted from NIST Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS), the Special Publication (SP) 800 series, NIST Interagency Reports (NISTIRs), and from the Committee for National Security Systems Instruction 4009 (CNSSI-4009). The glossary includes most of the terms in the NIST publications. It also contains nearly all of the terms and definitions from CNSSI-4009. The glossary provides a central resource of terms and definitions most commonly used in NIST information security publications and in CNSS information assurance publications. For a given term, we do not include all definitions in NIST documents - especially not from the older NIST publications. Since draft documents are not stable, we do not refer to terms/definitions in them.

This is the eBook of the printed book and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplements that may come packaged with the bound book. The Principles and Practice of Cryptography and Network Security Stallings’ Cryptography and Network Security, Seventh Edition, introduces the reader to the compelling and evolving field of cryptography and network security. In an age of viruses and hackers, electronic eavesdropping, and electronic fraud on a global scale, security is paramount. The purpose of this book is to provide a practical survey of both the principles and practice of cryptography and network security. In the first part of the book, the basic issues to be addressed by a network security capability are explored by providing a tutorial and survey of cryptography and network security technology. The latter part of the book deals with the practice of network security: practical applications that have been implemented and are in use to provide network security. The Seventh Edition streamlines subject matter with new and updated material — including Sage, one of the most important features of the book. Sage is an open-source, multiplatform, freeware package that implements a very powerful, flexible, and easily learned mathematics and computer algebra system. It provides hands-on experience with cryptographic algorithms and supporting homework assignments. With Sage, the reader learns a powerful tool that can be used for virtually any mathematical application. The book also provides an unparalleled degree of support for the reader to ensure a successful learning experience.
