This book provides a concise overview of the current state of the art in cybersecurity and shares novel and exciting ideas and techniques, along with specific cases demonstrating their practical application. It gathers contributions by both academic and industrial researchers, covering all aspects of cybersecurity and addressing issues in secure information systems as well as other emerging areas. The content comprises high-quality research articles and reviews that promote a multidisciplinary approach and reflect the latest advances, challenges, requirements and methodologies. Thus, the book investigates e.g. security vulnerabilities, cybercrime, and privacy issues related to big data analysis, as well as advances in digital forensics, secure smart city services, and risk mitigation strategies for devices employing cyber-physical systems. Given its scope, the book offers a valuable resource for students, researchers, IT professionals and providers, citizens, consumers and policymakers involved or interested in the modern security procedures needed to protect our information and communication resources. Its goal is to foster a community committed to further research and education, and one that can also translate its findings into concrete practices.

The General Data Protection Regulation is the latest, and one of the most stringent, regulations regarding Data Protection to be passed into law by the European Union. Fundamentally, it aims to protect the Rights and Freedoms of all the individuals included under its terms; ultimately the privacy and security of all our personal data. This requirement for protection extends globally, to all organisations, public and private, wherever personal data is held, processed, or transmitted concerning any EU citizen. Cyber Security is at the core of data protection and there is a heavy emphasis on the application of encryption and state of the art technology within the articles of the GDPR. This is considered to be a primary method in achieving compliance with the law. Understanding the overall use and scope of Cyber Security principles and tools allows for greater efficiency and more cost effective management of Information systems.GDPR and Cyber Security for Business Information Systems is designed to present specific and practical information on the key areas of compliance to the GDPR relevant to Business Information Systems in a global context.
