Overview
This book provides the fundamentals of computer architecture for security. It covers a wide range of computer hardware, system software and data concepts from a security perspective. It is essential for computer science and security professionals to understand both hardware and software security solutions to survive in the workplace. It features a careful, in-depth, and innovative introduction to modern computer systems and patent-pending technologies in computer security. In the past, computers were designed without security consideration and then used firewalls to protect them from outside. This text integrates security considerations into computer architecture in a way that it is immune against attacks. When necessary, the authors create simplified examples from patent-pending technologies that clearly explain architectural and implementation features.
