Blockchain Cybersecurity, Trust and Privacy
Author: Kim-Kwang Raymond Choo
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030381811
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
This book provides the reader with the most up-to-date knowledge of blockchain in mainstream areas of security, trust, and privacy in the decentralized domain, which is timely and essential (this is due to the fact that the distributed and P2P applications is increasing day-by-day, and the attackers adopt new mechanisms to threaten the security and privacy of the users in those environments). This book also provides the technical information regarding blockchain-oriented software, applications, and tools required for the researcher and developer experts in both computing and software engineering to provide solutions and automated systems against current security, trust and privacy issues in the cyberspace. Cybersecurity, trust and privacy (CTP) are pressing needs for governments, businesses, and individuals, receiving the utmost priority for enforcement and improvement in almost any societies around the globe. Rapid advances, on the other hand, are being made in emerging blockchain technology with broadly diverse applications that promise to better meet business and individual needs. Blockchain as a promising infrastructural technology seems to have the potential to be leveraged in different aspects of cybersecurity promoting decentralized cyberinfrastructure. Blockchain characteristics such as decentralization, verifiability and immutability may revolve current cybersecurity mechanisms for ensuring the authenticity, reliability, and integrity of data. Almost any article on the blockchain points out that the cybersecurity (and its derivatives) could be revitalized if it is supported by blockchain technology. Yet, little is known about factors related to decisions to adopt this technology, and how it can systemically be put into use to remedy current CTP’s issues in the digital world. Topics of interest for this book include but not limited to: Blockchain-based authentication, authorization and accounting mechanisms Applications of blockchain technologies in digital forensic and threat hunting Blockchain-based threat intelligence and threat analytics techniques Formal specification of smart contracts Automated tools for outsmarting smart contracts Security and privacy aspects of blockchain technologies Vulnerabilities of smart contracts Blockchain for securing cyber infrastructure and internet of things networks Blockchain-based cybersecurity education systems This book provides information for security and privacy experts in all the areas of blockchain, cryptocurrency, cybersecurity, forensics, smart contracts, computer systems, computer networks, software engineering, applied artificial intelligence for computer security experts, big data analysts, and decentralized systems. Researchers, scientists and advanced level students working in computer systems, computer networks, artificial intelligence, big data will find this book useful as well.

Securing the Internet of Things (IoT): Cybersecurity of Connected Devices
Author: Silviu Ciuta
Publisher: Silviu Ciuta
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 85
Book Description
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to the network of interconnected physical devices, vehicles, appliances, and other objects embedded with sensors, software, and network connectivity. These devices can collect and exchange data, enabling them to interact with each other and with their environment. The significance of IoT lies in its ability to enhance efficiency, provide valuable insights through data analytics, and improve automation in various sectors, ranging from healthcare and agriculture to smart cities and industrial processes. The use of IoT devices has proliferated across diverse sectors, including healthcare, agriculture, transportation, manufacturing, and smart homes. These devices offer benefits such as real-time monitoring, predictive maintenance, and improved decision-making. However, the widespread deployment of IoT devices also raises security concerns due to the interconnected nature of these systems. The interconnected nature of IoT introduces security challenges as it expands the attack surface. Vulnerabilities in one device can potentially compromise the entire network, leading to data breaches, unauthorized access, and disruptions to critical services. Common vulnerabilities in IoT devices include insecure firmware, weak authentication mechanisms, insufficient encryption, and susceptibility to physical tampering. These vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers to gain unauthorized access, manipulate data, or launch attacks on other devices. Insecure firmware can be a major security risk, as it may contain vulnerabilities that can be exploited by attackers. Weak authentication mechanisms can lead to unauthorized access, while the lack of encryption can expose sensitive data to interception and manipulation. Real-world examples of IoT security breaches include incidents where attackers compromised smart home devices, industrial control systems, or healthcare devices to gain unauthorized access, manipulate data, or disrupt operations. These breaches highlight the need for robust security measures in IoT deployments. Securing IoT networks is challenging due to the diverse nature of devices, varying communication protocols, and the sheer volume of data generated. Additionally, many IoT devices have resource constraints, making it difficult to implement robust security measures. Firewalls, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and network segmentation play crucial roles in IoT security. Firewalls help filter and monitor traffic, IDS detects unusual behavior, and network segmentation limits the impact of a breach by isolating compromised devices from the rest of the network. Implementing strong encryption protocols, ensuring secure key management, and regularly updating device firmware are key best practices for safeguarding communication between IoT devices. Additionally, using secure communication protocols such as TLS/SSL enhances the integrity and confidentiality of data. Data generated by IoT devices often includes sensitive information about individuals, their habits, and their environments. Protecting this data is crucial to maintain user privacy and prevent unauthorized access.
