Description
Product Description Our rising dependency on computers leaves us increasingly open to cyber-attacks by criminals and the state. This book addresses the many interdisciplinary issues affecting the uneasy relationship between information technology and the information society. Review Brad Reid, Lipscomb University, Nashville, TN, USA Excerpts from full review posted May 24 2013 to Computing Reviews [Review #: CR141243] Readers seeking insight into the relationship between society’s use of information and information technology will find useful content… Interdisciplinary dialogue is necessary, and the collection contributes to the conversation. The book adds to the available knowledge on ethical, legal, and political issues connected to secure information, and will be beneficial to multiple constituencies. From the Back Cover In our modern information societies, we not only use and welcome computers; we are highly dependent upon them. There is a downside of this kind of progress, however. Computers are not 100% reliable. They are insecure. They are vulnerable to attackers. They can either be attacked directly, to disrupt their services, or they can be abused in clever ways to do the bidding of an attacker as a dysfunctional user. Decision-makers and experts alike always struggle with the amount of interdisciplinary knowledge needed to understand the nuts and bolts of modern information societies and their relation to security, the implications of technological or political progress or the lack thereof. This holds in particular for new challenges to come. These are harder to understand and to categorize; their development is difficult to predict. To mitigate this problem and to enable more foresight, The Secure Information Society provides an interdisciplinary spotlight onto some new and unfolding aspects of the uneasy relationship between information technology and information society, to aid the dialogue not only in its current and ongoing struggle, but to anticipate the future in time and prepare perspectives for the challenges ahead.
