Emerging Cyber Threats and Cognitive Vulnerabilities
暫譯: 新興網路威脅與認知脆弱性

Emerging Cyber Threats and Cognitive Vulnerabilities identifies the critical role human behaviour plays in cyber security, and provides insights into how human decision making can help address rising volumes of cyberthreats. The book examines the role of psychology in cybersecurity by addressing each actor involved in the process: hackers, targets, cybersecurity practitioners, and the wider social context in which these groups operate. It applies psychological factors such as motivations, group processes, and decision-making heuristics that may lead individuals to underestimate risk. The goal of this understanding is to more quickly identify threat, and create early education and prevention strategies.

Emerging Cyber Threats and Cognitive Vulnerabilities covers a variety of topics and addresses different challenges in response to changes in the ways in to study various areas of decision-making, behaviour, artificial intelligence, and human interaction in relation to cybersecurity.

• Explains psychological factors inherent in machine learning and artificial intelligence
• Discusses the social psychology of online radicalism and terrorist recruitment
• Examines the motivation and decision-making of hackers and "hactivists"
• Investigates the use of personality psychology to extract secure information from individuals
