Description:


Now that there™s software in everything, how can you make anything secure? Understand how to engineer dependable systems with this newly updated classic  

In Security Engineering: A Guide to Building Dependable Distributed Systems, Third Edition Cambridge University professor Ross Anderson updates his classic textbook and teaches readers how to design, implement, and test systems to withstand both error and attack 

This book became a best-seller in 2001 and helped establish the discipline of security engineeringBy the second edition in 2008, underground dark markets had let the bad guys specialize and scale up; attacks were increasingly on users rather than on technologyThe book repeated its success by showing how security engineers can focus on usability 

Now the third edition brings it up to date for 2020As people now go online from phones more than laptops, most servers are in the cloud, online advertising drives the Internet and social networks have taken over much human interaction, many patterns of crime and abuse are the same, but the methods have evolved. Ross Anderson explores what security engineering means in 2020, including: 
How the basic elements of cryptography, protocols, and access control translate to the new world of phones, cloud services, social media and the Internet of Things 

Who the attackers are “ f
