CRC Press Cyber Security, Forensics and National Security (Advances in Digital Technologies for Smart Applications)

The book serves two very important purposes. Firstly, the concept of vulnerabilities due to cyberattacks in all walks of lives are explained along with how to detect and reduce the risk through digital forensics. Secondly, the book describes how such threats at a larger scale can threaten national security. This book discusses for the first time various dimensions of national security, the risks involved due to cyber threats, and ultimately the detection and prevention of cyber threats through cyber forensics and cybersecurity architectures. This book empowers readers with a deep comprehension of the various cyber threats targeting nations, businesses, and individuals, allowing them to recognize and respond to these threats effectively. It provides a comprehensive guide to digital investigation techniques, including evidence collection, analysis, and presentation in a legal context, addressing a vital need for cybersecurity professionals and law enforcement. The book navigates the complex legal and policy considerations surrounding cybercrime and national security, ensuring readers are well-versed in compliance and ethical aspects. The primary purpose of Cybersecurity, Forensics and National Security is to fill a critical gap in the realm of literature on cybersecurity, digital forensics, and their nexus with national security. The need for this resource arises from the escalating threats posed by cyberattacks, espionage, and other digital crimes, which demand a comprehensive understanding of how to investigate, respond to, and prevent such incidents. Features: 1. This book consists of content dedicated to national security to assist law enforcement and investigation agencies. 2. The book will act as a compendium for undertaking the initiatives for research in securing digital data at the level of national security with the involvement of intelligence agencies. 3. The book focuses on real-world cases and national security from government agencies, law enforcement, and digital security firms, offering readers valuable insights into practical applications and lessons learned in digital forensics, as well as innovative methodologies aimed at enhancing the availability of digital forensics and national security tools and techniques. 4. The book explores cutting-edge technologies in the field of digital forensics and national security, leveraging computational intelligence for enhanced reliability engineering, sustainable practices, and more.
