Provides a well informed discussion of the extent to which computer and communication systems are open to attack. Examples of attacks include the distribution of viruses, theft and use of credit card details, resetting official exchange rates, and theft of information on behalf of organised crime. Written before 9/11, one chapter considers how secure are international air traffic control and associated systems. The book goes on to deal with technical matters, the relationship between civil liberties and security, and concludes by proposing an international convention on cyber security.
