Cybercrimes are a threat and as dangerous as an armed intruder—yet millions of Americans are complacent or simply uninformed of how to protect themselves. The Secret to Cybersecurity closes that knowledge gap by using real-life examples to educate readers. It’s 2 a.m.—do you know who your child is online with? According to author Scott Augenbaum, between 80 to 90 percent of students say they do whatever they want on their smartphones—and their parents don’t have a clue. Is that you? What about your online banking passwords, are they safe? Has your email account or bank/debit card ever been compromised? In 2018, there were data breaches at several major companies—If those companies have your credit or debit information, that affects you. There are bad people in the world, and they are on the internet. They want to hurt you. They are based all over the world, so they’re hard at “work” when even you’re sleeping. They use automated programs to probe for weaknesses in your internet security programs. And they never stop. Cybercrime is on the increase internationally, and it’s up to you to protect yourself. But how? The Secret to Cybersecurity is the simple and straightforward plan to keep you, your family, and your business safe. Written by Scott Augenbaum, a 29-year veteran of the FBI who specialized in cybercrimes, it uses real-life examples to educate and inform readers, explaining who/why/how so you’ll have a specific takeaway to put into action for your family. Learn about the scams, methods, and ways that cyber criminals operate—and learn how to avoid being the next cyber victim.

This anniversary edition which has stood the test of time as a runaway best-seller provides a practical, straight-forward guide to achieving security throughout computer networks. No theory, no math, no fiction of what should be working but isn't, just the facts. Known as the master of cryptography, Schneier uses his extensive field experience with his own clients to dispel the myths that often mislead IT managers as they try to build secure systems. A much-touted section: Schneier's tutorial on just what cryptography (a subset of computer security) can and cannot do for them, has received far-reaching praise from both the technical and business community. Praise for Secrets and Lies "This is a business issue, not a technical one, and executives can no longer leave such decisions to techies. That's why Secrets and Lies belongs in every manager's library."-Business Week "Startlingly lively....a jewel box of little surprises you can actually use."-Fortune "Secrets is a comprehensive, well-written work on a topic few business leaders can afford to neglect."-Business 2.0 "Instead of talking algorithms to geeky programmers, [Schneier] offers a primer in practical computer security aimed at those shopping, communicating or doing business online-almost everyone, in other words."-The Economist "Schneier...peppers the book with lively anecdotes and aphorisms, making it unusually accessible."-Los Angeles Times With a new and compelling Introduction by the author, this premium edition will become a keepsake for security enthusiasts of every stripe.

In a world of digital technology, it's easy to forget one sobering fact: our identity can be stolen from under our noses, with one click of the mouse, propelling us into nightmares in a matter of minutes, anytime, anywhere and on any one of our darling gadgets. Cybercriminals, malware, botnets and all forms of digital threats are ever more sophisticated, waiting in the shadows for that one opportunity to steal your sensitive information. Terry Cutler, a Certified Ethical Hacker, reminds us of how vulnerable our data is, through chilling real-life stories, such as that of a simple USB key left purposefully behind, in a targeted enterprise's lavatory, where an unsuspecting (albeit good-willed) employee can just pick it up, plug it in and thus, lead the criminals right into the company's core data, or to your home computer. Terry Cutler is an international award-winning information security strategist for 20 years, and has advised Canada's largest companies on how to prevent and remedy internal and external security penetration. For the public, he developed an effective online learning program arranged in modules and updated regularly to keep up with the rapidly changing digital landscape in which "wild-west" Internet bandits seeking new ways to break into our lives are stopped. Terry Cutler has coined the term Cyologist(tm) to describe what he does. His mission is to "help individuals and corporations protect themselves from data breaches and other online cyber threats through his videos, media appearances, coaching products, and consulting services.

"When Jason Hanson joined the CIA in 2003, he never imagined that the same tactics he used as a CIA officer for counter intelligence, surveillance, and protecting agency personnel would prove to be essential in every day civilian life. In addition to escaping handcuffs, picking locks, and spotting when someone is telling a lie, he can improvise a self-defense weapon, pack a perfect emergency kit, and disappear off the grid if necessary. He has also honed his "positive awareness" - a heightened sense of his surroundings that allows him to spot suspicious and potentially dangerous behavior - on the street, in a taxi, at the airport, when dining out, or in any other situation."--Provided by publisher.

The world is gradually disintegrating as crime is at an unprecedented high. Crime is rampant in today's society and appears in all civilizations and cultures. Crime has austere costs and detrimental effects on the physical, social and psychological affluence of people globally. The biggest contributor to crime in the world is individuals who participate in frivolous and trivial acts in order to sustain themselves. In the contemporary world of crime, forensic science has advanced to the point where it can positively identify offenders. Since justice plays a significant part in crimes and punishment, it is bewildering and has transcendental value. Additionally, legal provisions compel criminals to be jittery, tumid, and contemptible and also oblige criminals to anticipate consequences beforehand. In this book, a multidisciplinary approach to identifying crime and comprehending the psychological, forensic, and legal components of the crime is taken into consideration. It gives insights of crime in the contemporary era and furthermore provides knowledge of modern tools and techniques involved in solving crime of discrete types. This book holistically explores the different approaches to understanding crime and its impact on the modern world. This book investigates the societal structures and processes affected by crime in a comprehensive way.
