Cyber Crime, Security and Digital Intelligence is the title of a new book by Gower. Mark Johnson looks at why cyber crimes occur and how they can be prevented or investigated.
Cyber crime, he argues, is one of the main threats to the digital economy. From insider threats to complex distributed attacks and industrial worms, modern business faces unprecedented challenges. Cyber security and digital intelligence are the necessary responses to this challenge, yet they are understood by only a tiny minority of users and decision makers, he suggests.
In Cyber Crime, Security and Digital Intelligence, his second book on high technology risks, Mark Johnson goes beyond enumerating past cases and summarising the requirements of data protection law, payment card industry or ISO standards. He focuses on how cyber crime has evolved and the nature of the latest threats and confronts issues that have yet to be addressed by codified rules and practice guidelines. His book is supported by over 30 illustrations, and tables, with non-technical explanations of how cyber attacks are executed, avoided and controlled.
