Description
Book Synopsis: Since the introduction and proliferation of the Internet, problems involved with maintaining cybersecurity has grown exponentially, and have evolved into many forms of exploitation. Yet, Cybersecurity has had far too little study and research. Virtually all of the Research that has taken place in cybersecurity over many years, has been done by those with computer science, electrical engineering, and mathematics backgrounds. However, many cybersecurity researchers have come to realize that to gain a full understanding of how to protect a cyber environment requires not only the knowledge of those researchers in computer science, engineering and mathematics, but those who have a deeper understanding of human behavior: researchers with expertise in the various branches of behavioral science, such as psychology, behavioral economics, and other aspects of brain science.The authors, one a computer scientist and the other a psychologist, have attempted over the past several years to understand the contributions that each approach to cybersecurity problems can benefit from this integrated approach that we have tended to call "behavioral cybersecurity."
The authors believe that the research and curriculum approaches developed from this integrated approach provide a first book with this approach to cybersecurity. This book incorporates traditional technical computational and analytic approaches to cybersecurity, and also psychological and human factors approaches, as well.

Are you concerned about the ever-growing threats to cybersecurity? Look no further! Introducing "Behavioral Cybersecurity: Applications of Personality Psychology and Computer Science", the groundbreaking book that combines the knowledge of both computer science and behavioral science experts to provide a comprehensive understanding of protecting your cyber environment.
Unlike traditional research in cybersecurity, which has mostly been limited to computer science and engineering backgrounds, our authors, one a computer scientist and the other a psychologist, have recognized the essential role of human behavior in safeguarding against cyber threats. By integrating psychological and human factors approaches, this book pioneers a new field known as "behavioral cybersecurity".
Featuring extensive discussions on profiling approaches, risk management, and case studies of major cybersecurity events like "Fake News", this book equips you with the knowledge to effectively address modern cyber threats. It also delves into game theory and behavioral economics, offering unique insights into attacker/defender personality and motivation traits. Additionally, it provides techniques for measuring cyber attacks/defenses using cryptographic and steganographic methods.
Don't compromise on cybersecurity – choose "Behavioral Cybersecurity: Applications of Personality Psychology and Computer Science" as your ultimate guide. Take the first step towards understanding and protecting your digital world. Order your copy now by clicking here.
