Security and Resilience in Intelligent Data-Centric Systems and Communication Networks presents current, state-of-the-art work on novel research in theoretical and practical resilience and security aspects of intelligent data-centric critical systems and networks. The book analyzes concepts and technologies that are successfully used in the implementation of intelligent data-centric critical systems and communication networks, also touching on future developments. In addition, readers will find in-demand information for domain experts and developers who want to understand and realize the aspects (opportunities and challenges) of using emerging technologies for designing and developing more secure and resilient intelligent data-centric critical systems and communication networks.

Topics covered include airports, seaports, rail transport systems, plants for the provision of water and energy, and business transactional systems. The book is well suited for researchers and PhD interested in the use of security and resilient computing technologies.

Traditional security enforcement tools, including malware gateway appliances, antivirus, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems, could not be enough to detect and mitigate new emerging and more sophisticated attacks that circumvent security controls and steal sensitive data for the purpose of perpetrating illicit profits and industrial espionage. Standard security technologies can only be effective for detecting and preventing the spread of obvious malware and the occurrence of external attacks, but there are great limits associated to detecting and responding to stealth distributed attacks and internal malicious behaviors (insider threats).

Includes tools and techniques to prevent and avoid both accidental and malicious behaviors
Explains the state-of-the-art technological solutions for main issues hindering the development of monitoring and reaction solutions
Describes new methods and technologies, advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques of future direction
