Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wonders and advantages of modern age electronics and the World Wide Web have also, unfortunately, ushered in a new age of terrorism. The growing connectivity among secure and insecure networks has created new opportunities for unauthorized intrusions into sensitive or proprietary computer systems. Some of these vulnerabilities are waiting to be exploited, while numerous others already have. Everyday that a vulnerability or threat goes unchecked greatly increases an attack and the damage it can cause. Who knows what the prospects for a cascade of failures across US infrastructures could lead to. What type of group or individual would exploit this vulnerability, and why would they do it? "Inside the Mind of a Criminal Hacker" sets the stage and cast of characters for examples and scenarios such as this, providing the security specialist a window into the enemy’s mind - necessary in order to develop a well configured defense. Written by leading security and counter-terrorism experts, whose experience include first-hand exposure in working with government branches & agencies (such as the FBI, US Army, Department of Homeland Security), this book sets a standard for the fight against the cyber-terrorist. Proving, that at the heart of the very best defense is knowing and understanding your enemy. * This book will demonstrate the motives and motivations of criminal hackers through profiling attackers at post attack and forensic levels. * This book is essential to those who need to truly "know thy enemy" in order to prepare the best defense. * . The breadth of material in "Inside the Criminal Mind" will surprise every security specialist and cyber-terrorist buff of how much they do and (more importantly) don't know about the types of adversaries they stand to face.

Download or read book Cyber Physical Social Intelligence written by Hai Zhuge and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-12 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores next-generation artificial intelligence based on the symbiosis between humans, machines and nature, including the rules and emerging patterns of recognition, and the integration and optimization of various flows through cyberspace, physical space and social space. It unveils a reciprocal human-machine-nature symbiotic mechanism together with relevant rules on structuring and evolving reality, and also proposes a multi-dimensional space for modelling reality and managing the methodologies for exploring reality. As such it lays the foundation for the emerging research area cyber-physical-social intelligence. Inspiring researchers and university students to explore the development of intelligence and scientific methodology, it is intended for researchers and broad readers with a basic understanding of computer science and the natural sciences. Next-generation artificial intelligence will extend machine intelligence and human intelligence to cyber-physical-social intelligence rendered by various interactions in cyberspace, physical space and social space. With the transformational development of science and society, a multi-dimensional reality is emerging and evolving, leading to the generation and development of various spaces obeying different principles. A fundamental scientific challenge is uncovering the essential mechanisms and principles that structure and evolve the reality emerging and evolving along various dimensions. Meeting this challenge requires identifying the basic relations between humans, machines and nature in order to reveal the cyber-physical-social principles.

Download or read book The 2018 Yearbook of the Digital Ethics Lab written by Carl Öhman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores a wide range of topics in digital ethics. It features 11 chapters that analyze the opportunities and the ethical challenges posed by digital innovation, delineate new approaches to solve them, and offer concrete guidance to harness the potential for good of digital technologies. The contributors are all members of the Digital Ethics Lab (the DELab), a research environment that draws on a wide range of academic traditions. The chapters highlight the inherently multidisciplinary nature of the subject, which cannot be separated from the epistemological foundations of the technologies themselves or the political implications of the requisite reforms. Coverage illustrates the importance of expert knowledge in the project of designing new reforms and political systems for the digital age. The contributions also show how this task requires a deep self-understanding of who we are as individuals and as a species. The questions raised here have ancient -- perhaps even timeless -- roots. The phenomena they address may be new. But, the contributors examine the fundamental concepts that undergird them: good and evil, justice and truth. Indeed, every epoch has its great challenges. The role of philosophy must be to redefine the meaning of these concepts in light of the particular challenges it faces. This is true also for the digital age. This book takes an important step towards redefining and re-implementing fundamental ethical concepts to this new era.
