Introduction to the philosophy of cybersecurity -- Cyber threats and the necessary clarifications -- Cybersecurity from the user's point of view -- Cybersecurity of healthcare infrastructure -- Cybersecurity of critical infrastructure -- Cybersecurity of a state -- Cyberconflict, cyberwar.
Summary: "Technology and digitization are great social good. But it's also about risks and threats. Cybersecurity is not just a matter of data or computer security. Cybersecurity is iabout the security of society. Why "Philosophy"? To understand how to reason and think about threats and cybersecurity in today's and tomorrow's world. This book is the necessary equipment. It equips with awareness. The Philosophy of Cybersecurity is about the user's perspective, but also about system issues. This is a book for everyone - a wide audience. Experts, academic lecturers, as well as students of technical fields such as computer science and social sciences will find the content interesting. Including in areas like international relations, diplomacy, strategy, and security studies. Cybersecurity is also a matter of State strategy and policy. It may be the first book on cybersecurity you'll understand. It considers such detailed basics as, for example, what a good password is, more importantly: why it is considered so today. But also about systemic issues, such as healthcare cybersecurity (challenges, why is it so difficult to secure, could people die as a result of cyberattacks?), critical infrastructure (can a cyberattack destroy elements of the power system?), States (have already been hacked). Cyberspace is not a "grey zone" without rules. It is logically explained what cyberwar is, whether it threatens us, and under what circumstances cyberattacks could lead to war. The chapter on cyberwar is relevant because of the war in Ukraine. The problem of cyberwar in the war in Ukraine is analytically and expertly explained. The rank and importance of these actions are explained, also against the background of broader military activities. The Cybersecurity Philosophy treats cybersecurity very broadly. From technology, through international law, diplomacy, military, and security matters, even in the matter of conflicts, geopolitics, political science, and international relations"-- Provided by publisher.
