Information Technology Security and Risk Management : Inductive Cases for Information Security
Information Technology Security and Risk Management: Inductive Cases for Information Security is a compilation of cases that examine recent developments and issues that are relevant to IT security managers, risk assessment and management, and the broader topic of IT security in the 21st century.As the title indicates, the cases are written and analyzed inductively, which is to say that the authors allowed the cases to speak for themselves, and lead where they would, rather than approach the cases with presuppositions or assumptions regarding what the case should be "about".In other words, the authors were given broad discretion to interpret a case in the most interesting and relevant manner possible; any given case may be "about" many things, depending on the perspective adopted by the reader, and many different lessons may be learned.The inductive approach of these cases reflects the design philosophy of the advanced IT Security and Risk Management course we teach on the topic here at the University of Canterbury, where all discussions begin with the analysis of a specific case of interest and follow the most interesting and salient aspects of the case in evidence.In our course, the presentation, analysis, and discussion of a case are followed by a brief lecture to address the conceptual, theoretical, and scholarly dimensions arising from the case.The inductive approach to teaching and learning also comes with a huge advantage – the students seem to love it, and often express their appreciation for a fresh and engaging approach to learning the sometimes-highly-technical content of an IT security course.As instructors, we are also grateful for the break in the typical scripted "chalk-and-talk" of a university lecture afforded by the spontaneity of the inductive approach. We were motivated to prepare this text because there seems to be no other book of cases dedicated to the topic of IT security and risk management, and because of our own success and satisfaction with inductive teaching and learning.We believe this book would be useful either for an inductive, case-based course like our own or as a body of cases to be discussed in a more traditional course with a deductive approach.There are abstracts and keywords for each case, which would help instructors select cases for discussions on specific topics, and PowerPoint slides are available as a guide for discussion about a given case.

What is the difference between IT security, information security, and cybersecurity?
IT security, information security, and cybersecurity are often used interchangeably, but they have subtle differences. IT security focuses on protecting the technology infrastructure of an organization, such as networks, servers, and devices. Information security, on the other hand, is a broader term that encompasses the protection of all forms of information, including physical and digital data. Cybersecurity specifically deals with protecting digital information from cyber threats, such as hacking, malware, and phishing attacks. In summary, IT security is a subset of information security, and cybersecurity is a specialized field within information security that focuses on digital threats.

Demystifying Intelligent Multimode Security Systems : An Edge-to-Cloud Cybersecurity Solutions Guide
This open access book. Use this practical guide to understand the concepts behind Intelligent Multi-modal Security Systems (IMSS) and how to implement security within an IMSS system to improve the robustness of the devices and of the end-to-end solution. There are nearly half a million active IMSS cameras globally, with over 100 million added annually.These cameras are used across enterprises (companies, traffic monitoring, driver enforcement, etc.), in peoples’ homes, on mobile devices (drones, on-vehicle, etc.), and are worn on the body. IMSS systems with a camera and network video recorder for storage are becoming the normal infrastructure for capturing, storing, and transmitting video content (sometimes up to 100 streams) in a secure manner and while protecting privacy. Military, aerospace, and government entities are also embracing digital security and surveillance.IMSS content serves as evidence in courts of law. Security within all of these types of IMSS systems needs to be bolstered by leveraging Intel hardware and software as the last line of defense, and this book provides you with best practices and solutions for maximizing security in your system implementation. What You Will LearnReview the relevant technologies in a surveillance systemDefine and dissect the data pipeline with a focus on key criteria and understand the mapping of this pipeline to Intel hardware blocksOptimize the partition and future-proof it with security and manageabilityUnderstand threat modeling terminology, the assets pertinent to DSS, and emerging threats, and learn how to mitigate these threats using Intel hardware and softwareUnderstand the unique risks and threats to the intelligence in IMSS (machine learning training and inferencing, regulations, and standards) and explore the solution space for mitigations to these threatsSample applications illustrate how to design in security for several types of IMSS.—Explore ways to keep both yourself and your systems up to date in a rapidly changing technology and threat environmentWho This Book Is ForSurveillance system designers, integrators, and consultants; professional systems, hardware, and software designers who design, recommend, or integrate surveillance systems; security system integrators; video analytics engineers; agencies that write RFPs and/or RFIs; government, police, and security agencies; and corporate security divisionsThis is an open access book.

What is the difference between IT security and information security?
IT security and information security are often used interchangeably, but there is a subtle difference between the two. IT security primarily focuses on protecting the digital infrastructure, networks, and systems from unauthorized access, cyber threats, and data breaches. On the other hand, information security encompasses a broader scope, including the protection of all forms of sensitive and valuable information, whether it is in digital or physical form.

How does the security barrier in the store with alarm and security technology work?
The security barrier in a store with alarm and security technology typically consists of sensors placed at entry and exit points. These sensors detect when an item with a security tag passes through them without being deactivated at the checkout. When this happens, the sensors trigger an alarm to alert store staff of a potential theft. Additionally, the security tags on items are usually deactivated at the checkout counter using a special device, allowing customers to leave the store without setting off the alarm.
