Synopsis
In today's globalized world, businesses and governments rely heavily on technology for storing and protecting essential information and data. Despite the benefits that computing systems offer, there remains an assortment of issues and challenges in maintaining the integrity and confidentiality of these databases. As professionals become more dependent cyberspace, there is a need for research on modern strategies and concepts for improving the security and safety of these technologies.
Modern Theories and Practices for Cyber Ethics and Security Compliance is a collection of innovative research on the concepts, models, issues, challenges, innovations, and mitigation strategies needed to improve cyber protection. While highlighting topics including database governance, cryptography, and intrusion detection, this book provides guidelines for the protection, safety, and security of business data and national infrastructure from cyber-attacks. It is ideally designed for security analysts, law enforcement, researchers, legal practitioners, policymakers, business professionals, governments, strategists, educators, and students seeking current research on combative solutions for cyber threats and attacks.
