Cyber Security

This collection looks at how essential infrastructure can be defended in an age of digital connection. Its contributors examine the difficulties and risks that arise in cyberspace and propose new approaches to meeting them. The opening section considers the digital society itself, covering critical infrastructure, the different ways societies are becoming digital, national strategy, the legal side of online security, the role of ordinary citizens, and how people can be trained. The middle section turns to specific sectors, including situational awareness, air traffic control and aviation, smart cities and buildings, shipping, energy networks, and hospitals. The final section explores how emerging technologies such as quantum computing, device firmware, wireless systems, malware analysis, and virtualisation change both the threats and the ways of building defences.
