this authoritative book, widely respected practitioner and teacher Matt Bishop presents a clear and useful introduction to the art and science of information security. Bishop's insights and realistic examples will help any practitioner or student understand the crucial links between security theory and the day-to-day security challenges of IT environments.

Bishop explains the fundamentals of security: the different types of widely used policies, the mechanisms that implement these policies, the principles underlying both policies and mechanisms, and how attackers can subvert these tools–as well as how to defend against attackers. A practicum demonstrates how to apply these ideas and mechanisms to a realistic company.

Coverage includes

Confidentiality, integrity, and availability
Operational issues, cost-benefit and risk analyses, legal and human factors
Planning and implementing effective access control
Defining security, confidentiality, and integrity policies
Using cryptography and public-key systems, and recognizing their limits
Understanding and using authentication: from passwords to biometrics
Security design principles: least-privilege, fail-safe defaults, open design, economy of mechanism, and more
Controlling information flow through systems and networks
Assuring security throughout the system lifecycle
Malicious logic: Trojan horses, viruses, boot sector and executable infectors, rabbits, bacteria, logic bombs–and defenses against them
Vulnerability analysis, penetration studies, auditing, and intrusion detection and prevention
Applying security principles to networks, systems, users, and programs
Introduction to Computer Security is adapted from Bishop's comprehensive and widely praised book, Computer Security: Art and Science. This shorter version of the original work omits much mathematical formalism, making it more accessible for professionals and students who have a less formal mathematical background, or for readers with a more practical than theoretical interest.
