This volume introduces students to the technologies and controls that protect our hardware, software, and data from cyberthreats. With everything from schools to financial accounts to vital infrastructure under threat from various bad actors, technological advances require constant new approaches to keep our businesses running, our sensitive information out of the hands of cybercriminals, and our data safe. The recent shift to remote work has increased vulnerability to cyber disruptions. Although newer tools like Artificial Intelligence (AI) can help with predicting cyberattacks before they occur—something traditional security professionals find challenging—these methods can also be used by hackers to learn about and exploit weaknesses in a system. Students and researchers wishing to gain a solid background in cybersecurity and related fields will find this volume an invaluable resource to developing a deeper and meaningful understanding of this important and evolving topic. Cybersecurity is multifaceted, encompassing the protection of computers, mobile devices, networks, websites, cloud services, and other computer and internet-connected technologies from a wide range of cyberattacks. This volume takes a broad view, covering security-enhancing technologies like encryption and zero trust as well as underlying hardware, software, and internet technologies. Topics discussed range from common cyberattacks and cybercrimes, famous computer viruses and hacking incidents, doxing, cyberbullying, and cyberwarfare and cyberterrorism. This volume will be an important resource for students at the high school and undergraduate levels, especially those considering careers in cybersecurity.
