Exposing Cryptovirology
Hackers have uncovered the dark side of cryptography?thatdevice developed to defeat Trojan horses, viruses, password theft,
and other cyber-crime. It?s called cryptovirology, the art of
turning the very methods designed to protect your data into a means
of subverting it. In this fascinating, disturbing volume, the
experts who first identified cryptovirology show you exactly what
you?re up against and how to fight back.
They will take you inside the brilliant and devious mind of a
hacker?as much an addict as the vacant-eyed denizen of the
crackhouse?so you can feel the rush and recognize your
opponent?s power. Then, they will arm you for the
counterattack.
This book reads like a futuristic fantasy, but be assured, the
threat is ominously real. Vigilance is essential, now.
- Understand the mechanics of computationally secure information
stealing - Learn how non-zero sum Game Theory is used to develop
survivable malware - Discover how hackers use public key cryptography to mount
