Download or read book Handbook of Research on Advancing Cybersecurity for Digital Transformation written by Sandhu, Kamaljeet and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cybersecurity has been gaining serious attention and recently has become an important topic of concern for organizations, government institutions, and largely for people interacting with digital online systems. As many individual and organizational activities continue to grow and are conducted in the digital environment, new vulnerabilities have arisen which have led to cybersecurity threats. The nature, source, reasons, and sophistication for cyberattacks are not clearly known or understood, and many times invisible cyber attackers are never traced or can never be found. Cyberattacks can only be known once the attack and the destruction have already taken place long after the attackers have left. Cybersecurity for computer systems has increasingly become important because the government, military, corporate, financial, critical infrastructure, and medical organizations rely heavily on digital network systems, which process and store large volumes of data on computer devices that are exchanged on the internet, and they are vulnerable to “continuous” cyberattacks. As cybersecurity has become a global concern, it needs to be clearly understood, and innovative solutions are required. The Handbook of Research on Advancing Cybersecurity for Digital Transformation looks deeper into issues, problems, and innovative solutions and strategies that are linked to cybersecurity. This book will provide important knowledge that can impact the improvement of cybersecurity, which can add value in terms of innovation to solving cybersecurity threats. The chapters cover cybersecurity challenges, technologies, and solutions in the context of different industries and different types of threats. This book is ideal for cybersecurity researchers, professionals, scientists, scholars, and managers, as well as practitioners, stakeholders, researchers, academicians, and students interested in the latest advancements in cybersecurity for digital transformation.

Download or read book Cybersecurity in Digital Transformation written by Dietmar P.F. Möller and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the essential methodologies required to understand the advancement of digital technologies into digital transformation, as well as to protect them against cyber threat vulnerabilities (in this context cybersecurity attack ontology is included, modeling different types of adversary knowledge). It covers such essential methodologies as CIA Triad, Security Risk, Likelihood, and Consequence Level, Threat Attack Profiling, Threat Intelligence, Threat Lifecycle and more. The idea behind digital transformation is to use digital technologies not only to replicate an existing process in a digital form, but to use digital technology to transform that process into something intelligent (where anything is connected with everything at any time and accessible and controlled and designed advanced). Against this background, cyber threat attacks become reality, using advanced digital technologies with their extreme interconnected capability which call for sophisticated cybersecurity protecting digital technologies of digital transformation. Scientists, advanced-level students and researchers working in computer science, electrical engineering and applied mathematics will find this book useful as a reference guide. Professionals working in the field of big data analytics or digital/intelligent manufacturing will also find this book to be a valuable tool.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an advanced understanding of cyber threats as well as the risks companies are facing. It includes a detailed analysis of many technologies and approaches important to decreasing, mitigating or remediating those threats and risks. Cyber security technologies discussed in this book are futuristic and current. Advanced security topics such as secure remote work, data security, network security, application and device security, cloud security, and cyber risk and privacy are presented in this book. At the end of every chapter, an evaluation of the topic from a CISO’s perspective is provided. This book also addresses quantum computing, artificial intelligence and machine learning for cyber security The opening chapters describe the power and danger of quantum computing, proposing two solutions for protection from probable quantum computer attacks: the tactical enhancement of existing algorithms to make them quantum-resistant, and the strategic implementation of quantum-safe algorithms and cryptosystems. The following chapters make the case for using supervised and unsupervised AI/ML to develop predictive, prescriptive, cognitive and auto-reactive threat detection, mitigation, and remediation capabilities against advanced attacks perpetrated by sophisticated threat actors, APT and polymorphic/metamorphic malware. CISOs must be concerned about current on-going sophisticated cyber-attacks, and can address them with advanced security measures. The latter half of this book discusses some current sophisticated cyber-attacks and available protective measures enabled by the advancement of cybersecurity capabilities in various IT domains. Chapters 6-10 discuss secure remote work; chapters 11-17, advanced data security paradigms; chapters 18-28, Network Security; chapters 29-35, application and device security; chapters 36-39, Cloud security; and chapters 40-46 organizational cyber risk measurement and event probability.

Download or read book Digital Governance written by Michael E. Milakovich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The application of digital information and communication technologies (ICTs) to reform governmental structures and public service is widely and perhaps naively viewed as the 21st century "savior", the enlightened way to reinvigorate democracy, reduce costs, and improve the quality of public services. This book examines the transition from e-government to digital governance in light of the financial exigencies and political controversies facing many governments. The chapters concentrate on strategies for public sector organizational transformation and policies for improved and measurable government performance in the current contentious political environment. This fully updated second edition of Digital Governance provides strategies for public officials to apply advanced technologies, manage remote workforces, measure performance, and improve service delivery in current crisis-driven administrative and political environments. The full implementation of advanced digital governance requires fundamental changes in the relationship between citizens and their governments, using ICTs as catalysts for political as well as administrative communication. This entails attitudinal and behavioral changes, secure networks, and less dependence on formal bureaucratic structures (covered in Part I of this book); transformation of administrative, educational, and security systems to manage public services in a more citizen-centric way (covered in Part II); the integration of advanced digital technologies with remote broadband wireless internet services (Part III); and the creation of new forms of global interactive citizenship and self-governance (covered in Part IV). Author Michael E. Milakovich offers recommendations for further improvement and civic actions to stimulate important instruments of governance and public administration. This book is required reading for political science, public administration, and public policy courses, as well as federal, state, and local government officials.
