Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence

This book discusses a range of topics that are essential to understanding cyber security, including legal implications and technical aspects of cyber security ranging from cyber detection, and minimising the threats so that governments and organisations can function without noticeable degradation of service. Cyber security threats are different from other technological threats because they could destroy governments and undermine democratic processes. This is why an overarching cyber security strategy is important for all functioning governments. Thus, the book acts as a base for developing strategies and ideas in the field and acts as a motivator for other governments and interested parties to develop and implement strategies that are effective. The difficult aspect of the strategy is the implementation which will require a cultural sea change in government's approach to handling cyber security and developing a regulatory environment that links organisations and governments in a secure working environment. The development of cyber security strategies necessitates new skills at the technical and user levels. However, IT skills are a shortage area, and without a government policy on the training of cyber security, skills might lead to the full potential of cyber security being slowed. The book integrates the different aspects and challenges of cyber security strategy so that benefits and drawbacks are highlighted, and thus, deep learning can take place.
