- About the Authors
Security has become inseparable from the way modern organizations operate. Cloud platforms, mobile devices, and highly connected systems have changed how technology is built, and with that change comes a very different set of risks. As digital ecosystems expand, security engineering is no longer optional; it has become a core discipline for anyone shaping technology.
This book offers a grounded and practical view of how security practices are evolving. Each chapter explores an essential area of security, from the foundations of cryptography and access control to the realities of cloud resilience, adversary behavior, human factors, and the economics behind security decisions. Drawing from practical security engineering work and real-world organizational challenges, this book synthesizes essential concepts, tangible examples, and critical lessons that directly reflect the difficulties faced by modern organizations.
By the end of this book, you will be equipped with both the foundational theory and the practical application knowledge from cloud configurations to end-to-end encryption, needed to confidently design, build, and maintain highly secure and compliant systems, making you an indispensable asset in the field of digital security. Whether building new systems or strengthening existing ones, you will learn to think more critically, design more securely, and approach security as an integral part of technology.
