"Deploying the scientific method in cybersecurity today is a common-sense approach that is a tough topic in the field of cybersecurity. While most publications in the field emphasize that scientific principles are necessary, there are very few, if any, guides that uncover these principles. This book will give readers practical tools for cybersecurity. It examines the path of developing cybersecurity foundations while taking into account uncertain data. Extensive examples demonstrate how to deploy cybersecurity to sort our day-to-day problems. Using Science in Cybersecurity is intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers and practitioners in the fields of cybersecurity, information security, and science of cybersecurity"--Publisher's website.
