- Summary:
- This book examines the legal and policy aspects of cybersecurity. It takes a much needed look at cybersecurity from a geopolitical perspective. Through this lens, it seeks to broaden the reader's understanding of the legal and political consideration of individuals, corporations, law enforcement and regulatory bodies and management of the complex relationships between them. In drawing on interviews conducted with experts from a wide range of fields, the book presents the reader with dilemmas and paradigms that confront law makers, corporate leaders, law enforcement, and national leaders. The book is structured in a novel format by employing a-series of vignettes which have been created as exercises intended to confront the reader with the dilemmas involved in cybersecurity. Through the use of vignettes, the work seeks to highlight the constant threat of cybersecurity against various audiences, with the overall aim of facilitating discussion and reaction to actual probable events. In this sense, the book seeks to provide recommendations for best practices in response to the complex and numerous threats related to cybersecurity. This book will be of interest to students of cybersecurity, terrorism, international law, security studies and IR in general, as well as policy makers, professionals and law-enforcement officials.
