Discussing a broad range of issues affecting the security of electronic information, this volume focuses on practical solutions to a variety of specific problems faced by businesses, governments, the military and private computer users.
From the Internet to cable television to telecommunications, our society is dependent on information. This dependence makes us remarkably vulnerable to sabotage, theft and a host of other threats. In this thought-provoking book, Frederick Cohen moves from one case study to another, chronicling the vulnerability of our information systems. He outlines the challenges of maintaining security online and offers practical solutions that must be taken in order to manage critical security problems in the future. Exploring the entire spectrum of communications systems, including the Internet, cable television, microwave and satellite communications, radio and telephone, this text contains detailed case studies which take readers to the roots of security issues in our technological society.

Frederick B. Cohen, PhD, is a principal of Management Analytics. Perhaps best known for his pioneering work on computer viruses, he also invented the integrity mechanisms used in most of the PC-based protection products now on the market. The author of several books and dozens of research papers on computer security, Professor Cohen is one of the most sought-after speakers on the subject.
