NOW THAT THERE’S SOFTWARE IN EVERYTHING, HOW CAN YOU MAKE
ANYTHING SECURE? UNDERSTAND HOW TO ENGINEER DEPENDABLE
SYSTEMS WITH THIS NEWLY UPDATED CLASSIC
In _Security Engineering: A Guide to Building Dependable Distributed
Systems, Third Edition _Cambridge University professor Ross Anderson
updates his classic textbook and teaches readers how to design,
implement, and test systems to withstand both error and
attack.
This book became a best-seller in 2001 and helped establish the
discipline of security engineering. By the second edition in
2008, underground dark markets had let the bad guys specialize
and scale up; attacks were increasingly on users rather than on
technology. The book repeated its success by showing how security
engineers can focus on usability.
Now the third edition brings it up to date for 2020. As people now
go online from phones more than laptops, most servers are in the
cloud, online advertising drives the Internet and social networks have
taken over much human interaction, many patterns of crime and abuse
are the same, but the methods have evolved. Ross
Anderson explores what security engineering means in 2020,
including:
* How the basic elements of cryptography, protocols, and access
control translate to the new world of phones, cloud services, social
media and the Internet of Things
* Who the attackers are - from nation states and business
competitors through criminal gangs to stalkers
and playground bullies
* What they do - from phishing and carding
through SIM swapping and software exploits to DDoS
and fake news
* Security
psychology, from privacy through ease-of-use to deception
* The economics of security and dependability - why companies
build vulnerable systems and governments look the other way
* How dozens of industries went online - well or badly
* How to manage security and safety engineering in a world of
agile development - from reliability engineering to DevSecOps
The third edition of _Security Engineering_ ends with a grand
challenge: sustainable security. As we build ever more software and
connectivity into safety-critical durable goods like cars and medical
devices, how do we design systems we can maintain and defend for
decades? Or will everything in the world need monthly software
upgrades, and become unsafe once they stop?
