Behavioral Cybersecurity: Fundamental Principles and Applications of Personality Psychology de Wayne Patterson

Behavioral Cybersecurity: Fundamental Principles and Applications of Personality Psychology

Autor Wayne Patterson, Cynthia E. Winston-Proctor
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 dec 2020
This book discusses the role of human personality in the study of behavioral cybersecurity for non-specialists.
Since the introduction and proliferation of the Internet, cybersecurity maintenance issues have grown exponentially. The importance of behavioral cybersecurity has recently been amplified by current events, such as misinformation and cyber-attacks related to election interference in the United States and internationally. More recently, similar issues have occurred in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The book presents profiling approaches, offers case studies of major cybersecurity events and provides analysis of password attacks and defenses. Discussing psychological methods used to assess behavioral cybersecurity, alongside risk management, the book also describes game theory and its applications, explores the role of cryptology and steganography in attack and defense scenarios and brings the reader up to date with current research into motivation and attacker/defender personality traits.
Written for practitioners in the field, alongside nonspecialists with little prior knowledge of cybersecurity, computer science, or psychology, the book will be of interest to all who need to protect their computing environment from cyber-attacks. The book also provides source materials for courses in this growing area of behavioral cybersecurity.
