Defense and Deception

The hit cybersecurity book featured on Business Insider!

The reason I decided to write this book is to show that we have to rethink how welook at security. We continue to use the same methods and the threat continuesto evolve and bypass it, so we need to understand we need a paradigm shift andthis book is to help you with this shift. The book takes you from the essentialand fundamentals of defense required to protect our modern networks to theadvanced concepts of segmentation and isolation to mitigate the risk, then weintroduce you to the methods of deploying deception decoys on the network. Withthis book, you will learn how to flip the model.

For years, we have listened to the statement "the attackers are at theadvantage, because they only have to find one way in and we cannot secure everyway in." This is true, but with the concepts covered in this book you canflip the model and turn the advantage to the defender, and as a result, youtake control of your network! One packet is all we need to identify when theyare within our network! We can control the path and route that the attackerspursue and simulate and present a replication of the required data within thesegment while moving the real data to a safe location.
