Information Security and Optimization
maintains a practical perspective while offering theoretical
explanations. The book explores concepts that are essential for
academics as well as organizations. It discusses aspects of techniques
and tools―definitions, usage, and analysis―that are invaluable for
scholars ranging from those just beginning in the field to established
experts. What are the policy standards? What are vulnerabilities and how
can one patch them? How can data be transmitted securely? How can data
in the cloud or cryptocurrency in the blockchain be secured? How can
algorithms be optimized? These are some of the possible queries that are
answered here effectively using examples from real life and case
studies.
Features:
- A wide range of case
studies and examples derived from real-life scenarios that map
theoretical explanations with real incidents.
- Descriptions
of security tools related to digital forensics with their unique
features, and the working steps for acquiring hands-on experience.
- Novel contributions in designing organization security policies and lightweight cryptography.
- Presentation
of real-world use of blockchain technology and biometrics in
cryptocurrency and personalized authentication systems.
- Discussion
and analysis of security in the cloud that is important because of
extensive use of cloud services to meet organizational and research
demands such as data storage and computing requirements.
Information Security and Optimization
is equally helpful for undergraduate and postgraduate students as well
as for researchers working in the domain. It can be recommended as a
reference or textbook for courses related to cybersecurity.
