“A fascinating look at the new direction fuzzing technology is taking — useful for both QA engineers and bug hunters alike!”

–Dave Aitel, CTO, Immunity Inc.

Learn the code cracker’s malicious mindset, so you can find worn-size holes in the software you are designing, testing, and building. Fuzzing for Software Security Testing and Quality Assurance takes a weapon from the black-hat arsenal to give you a powerful new tool to build secure, high-quality software. This practical resource helps you add extra protection without adding expense or time to already tight schedules and budgets. The book shows you how to make fuzzing a standard practice that integrates seamlessly with all development activities.

This comprehensive reference goes through each phase of software development and points out where testing and auditing can tighten security. It surveys all popular commercial fuzzing tools and explains how to select the right one for a software development project. The book also identifies those cases where commercial tools fall short and when there is a need for building your own fuzzing tools.

Network Centric Warfare and Coalition Operations: New Military Operating System

Category: Books Tags: Art, Battle, battle space, centrality, Coalition, Coalition Operation, coalition operations, coalition partners, computer software, Cyber, digitization, Doctrine, END, International, international relations, international security, international structure, interoperability, Military, military doctrine, military power, military response, Modern, National, National Security, NCW, Network-Centric, Network-Centric Warfare, Networked, Operating, Operations, Participation, Routledge, Security, security studies, Space, strategic studies, System, Terror, terrorist threats, Threats, United States, US, us foreign policy, Warfare Leave a Comment

This book argues that Network Centric Warfare (NCW) influences how developed militaries operate in the same fashion that an operating system influences the development of computer software.

It examines three inter-related issues: the overwhelming military power of the United States; the growing influence of NCW on military thinking; and the centrality of coalition operations in modern military endeavours. Irrespective of terrorist threats and local insurgencies, the present international structure is remarkably stable – none of the major powers seeks to alter the system from its present liberal character, as demonstrated by the lack of a military response to US military primacy. This primacy privileges the American military doctrine and thus the importance of NCW, which promises a future of rapid, precise, and highly efficient operations, but also a future predicated on the ‘digitization’ of the battle space. Participation in future American-led military endeavours will require coalition partners to be networked: ‘interoperability’ will therefore be a key consideration of a partner’s strategic worth.

Network Centric Warfare and Coalition Operations will be of great interest to students of strategic studies, international security, US foreign policy and international relations in general.

All political and military conflicts now have a cyber dimension, the size and impact of which are difficult to predict. Internet-enabled propaganda, espionage and attacks on critical infrastructure can target decision makers, weapons systems and citizens in general, during times of peace or war. Traditional threats to national security now have a digital delivery mechanism which would increase the speed, diffusion and power of an attack. There have been no true cyber wars to date, but cyber battles of great consequence are easy to find. This book is divided into two sections – Strategic Viewpoints and Technical Challenges & Solutions – and highlights the growing connection between computer security and national security.

Data Mining and Machine Learning in Cybersecurity

Category: Books Tags: amazon data, application of data mining, Art, art machine, Attack, Challenge, Challenges, Cutting-edge, Cybersecurity, Cyberwar, data mining solutions, data mining techniques, discovery techniques, edge techniques, future research, information discovery, interdisciplinary resource, Learning, Machine, Machine Learning, Mining, preserving data mining, rapid advancement, research topics, Scanning, Studies, Sumeer Dua, Survey, Techniques, workflow, Xian Du 3 Comments

With the rapid advancement of information discovery techniques, machine learning and data mining continue to play a significant role in cybersecurity. Although several conferences, workshops, and journals focus on the fragmented research topics in this area, there has been no single interdisciplinary resource on past and current works and possible paths for future research in this area. This book fills this need.

From basic concepts in machine learning and data mining to advanced problems in the machine learning domain, Data Mining and Machine Learning in Cybersecurity provides a unified reference for specific machine learning solutions to cybersecurity problems. It supplies a foundation in cybersecurity fundamentals and surveys contemporary challenges—detailing cutting-edge machine learning and data mining techniques.

It also:

Unveils cutting-edge techniques for detecting new attacks
Contains in-depth discussions of machine learning solutions to detection problems
Categorizes methods for detecting, scanning, and profiling intrusions and anomalies
Surveys contemporary cybersecurity problems and unveils state-of-the-art machine learning and data mining solutions
Details privacy-preserving data mining methods

This interdisciplinary resource includes technique review tables that allow for speedy access to common cybersecurity problems and associated data mining methods. Numerous illustrative figures help readers visualize the workflow of complex techniques and more than forty case studies provide a clear understanding of the design and application of data mining and machine learning techniques in cybersecurity.
