Cyber-Physical Attacks: A Growing Invisible Threat by Loukas PhD Imperial Col…

Description: About this productProduct InformationCyber-Physical Attacks: A Growing Invisible Threat presents the growing list of harmful uses of computers and their ability to disable cameras, turn off a building's lights, make a car veer off the road, or a drone land in enemy hands. In essence, it details the ways cyber-physical attacks are replacing physical attacks in crime, warfare, and terrorism. The book explores how attacks using computers affect the physical world in ways that were previously only possible through physical means. Perpetrators can now cause damage without the same risk, and without the political, social, or moral outrage that would follow a more overt physical attack. Readers will learn about all aspects of this brave new world of cyber-physical attacks, along with tactics on how to defend against them. The book provides an accessible introduction to the variety of cyber-physical attacks that have already been employed or are likely to be employed in the near future.Product IdentifiersPublisherElsevier Science & TechnologyISBN-100128012900ISBN-139780128012901eBay Product ID (ePID)210821806Product Key FeaturesAuthorGeorge LoukasPublication NameCyber-Physical Attacks : How They Work and How to Protect Against ThemFormatTrade PaperbackLanguageEnglishPublication Year2015TypeTextbookNumber of Pages270 PagesDimensionsItem Length9.2in.Item Width7.5in.Additional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberHv6773Reviews"George Loukas, a prof. at the Univ. of Greenwich, London, treats us to his specialty: cyber-physical attacks.
