The Art of Cyber Security (eBook, ePUB)

A practical guide to winning the war on cyber crime

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book redefines cyber security through the lens of creativity and classical strategy. It begins by exploring the mindset of the cyber defender as both artist and martial artist, highlighting the importance of intuition, flow, and individual perspective. It challenges rigid educational models and argues for a more adaptive, expressive approach to security thinking.

Building on this foundation, the second part interprets Sun Tzu's The Art of War in a cyber context. Each chapter reframes traditional military concepts-deception, preparation, leadership, and adaptability-through the realities of digital threats. The text emphasizes how timeless strategies apply to the modern information battlefield.

By blending philosophy, history, and practical insight, the book offers a unique take on digital defense. It invites readers to reflect on their approach, question assumptions, and embrace both logic and creativity. This is not just a guide to threats and tactics, but a call to rethink what it means to be a cyber security professional today.
