DESCRIPTION
The intersection of politics, law, privacy, and security in the
context of computer technology is both sensitive and complex.
Computer viruses, worms, Trojan horses, spy-ware, computer exploits,
poorly designed software, inadequate technology laws, politics and
terrorism-all of these have a profound effect on our daily computing
operations and habits, with major political and social implications.
Computer Security, Privacy and Politics: Current Issues, Challenges
and Solutions connects privacy and politics, offering a point-in-time
review of recent developments of computer security, with a special
focus on the relevance and implications of global privacy, law, and
politics for society, individuals, and corporations. An estimable
addition to any library collection, this reference source compiles
high quality, timely content on such cutting-edge topics as reverse
engineering of software, understanding emerging computer exploits,
emerging lawsuits and cases, global and societal implications, and
protection from attacks on privacy.
