This book is the outcome of a review of literature on the possible concerns and issues Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) would face when adopting the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) technologies. From a review of the current and past literature, this book disseminates insightful ideas and developments in the field of information and cybersecurity. It is intended that these ideas will shape how SMEs now and in the immediate future address information and cyber security risks. This book is also of particular interest to information security administrators managing SME information security, who may gather additional insights on the emergent information security threats facing SMEs that are discussed. A key consideration for this book is the innovative ways that SMEs have adopted 4IR technologies but, in doing so, have attracted unknown information and cyber security risks.

Research over the last two decades has considerably expanded knowledge of Internet cryptography, revealing the important interplay between standardization, implementation, and research. This practical textbook/guide is intended for academic courses in IT security and as a reference guide for Internet security. It describes important Internet standards in a language close to real-world cryptographic research and covers the essential cryptographic standards used on the Internet, from WLAN encryption to TLS and e-mail security. From academic and non-academic research, the book collects information about attacks on implementations of these standards (because these attacks are the main source of new insights into real-world cryptography). By summarizing all this in one place, this useful volume can highlight cross-influences in standards, as well as similarities in cryptographic constructions.

Cyber security has never been more essential than it is today, it’s not a case of if an attack will happen, but when. This brand new edition covers the various types of cyber threats and explains what you can do to mitigate these risks and keep your data secure. Cyber Security explains the fundamentals of information security, how to shape good organisational security practice, and how to recover effectively should the worst happen. Written in an accessible manner, Cyber Security provides practical guidance and actionable steps to better prepare your workplace and your home alike. This second edition has been updated to reflect the latest threats and vulnerabilities in the IT security landscape, and updates to standards, good practice guides and legislation.

Blockchain is considered as distributed records or lists assigned to network nodes. They store information in blocks where each block is linked to the previous one. These blocks establish a chain (blockchain). Initially, blockchains were created for cryptocurrency systems to sustain a secure and decentralized collection of transactions. Soon after, many different applications of blockchains emerged. Principles and Practice of Blockchains provides an essential compilation of relevant and cutting-edge academic and industry work on key blockchain topics. Further, it introduces blockchains to the public at large to develop their blockchain knowledge and awareness. The book can be a valuable resource to blockchain experts towards their professional development efforts and to students as a supplement to their cybersecurity courses.

The Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) can be found in the majority of data centers across the world. However, getting hands-on practice to learn this infrastructure can be difficult, as many companies will push to have it production-ready as soon as possible. Home-labs are also cost-prohibitive, cumbersome, electricity-hungry, and noisy. So, how do you get hands-on experience? With Unified Computing System Platform Emulator (UCSPE) and this book. UCSPE is free and can run on a laptop. Using it along with this book, you will learn how to set up, manage and troubleshoot a UCS, including the fabric interconnects, chassis and IOMs, and servers through the GUI and the CLI. All from the comfort of your own home. Introducing Cisco Unified Computing System will show you how to set up a UCS (comparing the UCSPE to a real-world deployment), customize the hardware, configure the UCS system, and secure it.

This book provides a detailed examination of the threats and dangers facing the West at the far end of the cybersecurity spectrum. It concentrates on threats to critical infrastructure which includes major public utilities. It focusses on the threats posed by the two most potent adversaries/competitors to the West, Russia and China, whilst considering threats posed by Iran and North Korea. The arguments and themes are empirically driven but are also driven by the need to evolve the nascent debate on cyberwarfare and conceptions of ‘cyberwar’. This book seeks to progress both conceptions and define them more tightly. This accessibly written book speaks to those interested in cybersecurity, international relations and international security, law, criminology, psychology as well as to the technical cybersecurity community, those in industry, governments, policing, law making and law enforcement, and in militaries (particularly NATO members). This book concentrates not on military networks but on civilian critical infrastructure/critical national infrastructure (CI/CNI) attacks.

We live in a digital world, where we use digital tools and smart devices to communicate over the Internet. In turn, an enormous amount of data gets generated. The traditional computing architectures are inefficient in storing and managing this massive amount of data. Unfortunately, the data cannot be ignored as it helps businesses to make better decisions, solve problems, understand performance, improve processes, and understand customers. Therefore, we need modern systems capable of handling and managing data efficiently. In the past few decades, many distributed computing paradigms have emerged, and we have noticed a substantial growth in the applications based on such emerging paradigms. Some well-known emerging computing paradigms include cloud computing, fog computing, and edge computing, which have leveraged the increase in the volume of data being generated every second. However, the distributed computing paradigms face critical challenges, including network management and cyber security. We have witnessed the development of various networking models―IoT, SDN, and ICN―to support modern systems requirements.
