Computer fraud and hacking Books
Springer Nature Switzerland AG Cybercrime Prevention: Theory and Applications
Book SynopsisThis book articulates how crime prevention research and practice can be reimagined for an increasingly digital world. This ground-breaking work explores how criminology can apply longstanding, traditional crime prevention techniques to the digital realm. It provides an overview of the key principles, concepts and research literature associated with crime prevention, and discusses the interventions most commonly applied to crime problems. The authors review the theoretical underpinnings of these and analyses evidence for their efficacy. Cybercrime Prevention is split into three sections which examine primary prevention, secondary prevention and tertiary prevention. It provides a thorough discussion of what works and what does not, and offers a formulaic account of how traditional crime prevention interventions can be reimagined to apply to the digital realm.

We can simply make it a tad harder for the hackers to penetrate "our space" and either gain access to our data or lock us out from it. The tales of woe told here explore the range of tools hackers have used. For those of us with zero hacking skills it's an enlightening, if depressing, read." * Brenda Jubin, Reading the Markets, NetGalley Reviewer *Table of Contents Chapter - 00: Introduction; Chapter - 01: Sony – Systems Wiped, Internal Documents Leaked and Network Completely Shut Down by "The Guardians of Peace"; Chapter - 02: TalkTalk – 157,000 Customer Details Stolen by a Hacker; Chapter - 03: John Podesta – Gmail Account Hacked and Emails Sent to Wikileaks; Chapter - 04: Mirai – The DDOS Hack that Revealed the Vulnerability of Internet of Things Devices; Chapter - 05: HBGary – The Security Company Brought Down by Anonymous; Chapter - 06: TK Maxx – 94m Credit Card Details Stolen; Chapter - 07: Ransomware – Using Cryptography as a Weapon to Hold Your Data Hostage; Chapter - 08: Conclusion

Book SynopsisA bold new theory of cyberwar argues that militarized hacking is best understood as a form of deconstruction From shadowy attempts to steal state secrets to the explosive destruction of Iranian centrifuges, cyberwar has been a vital part of statecraft for nearly thirty years. But although computer-based warfare has been with us for decades, it has changed dramatically since its emergence in the 1990s, and the pace of change is accelerating.In Deconstruction Machines, Justin Joque inquires into the fundamental nature of cyberwar through a detailed investigation of what happens at the crisis points when cybersecurity systems break down and reveal their internal contradictions. He concludes that cyberwar is best envisioned as a series of networks whose constantly shifting connections shape its very possibilities. He ultimately envisions cyberwar as a form of writing, advancing the innovative thesis that cyber attacks should be seen as a militarized form of deconstruction in which computer programs are systems that operate within the broader world of texts. Throughout, Joque addresses hot-button subjects such as technological social control and cyber-resistance entities like Anonymous and Wikileaks while also providing a rich, detailed history of cyberwar. Deconstruction Machines provides a necessary new interpretation of deconstruction and timely analysis of media, war, and technology.
