Examines the governance challenges of cybersecurity through twelve,
real-world case studies
Through twelve detailed case studies, this superb collection provides an
overview of the ways in which government officials and corporate leaders
across the globe are responding to the challenges of cybersecurity.
Drawing perspectives from industry, government, and academia, the book
incisively analyzes the actual issues, and provides a guide to the
continually evolving cybersecurity ecosystem. It charts the role that
corporations, policymakers, and technologists are playing in defining
the contours of our digital world.
Rewired: Cybersecurity Governance places great emphasis on the
interconnection of law, policy, and technology in cyberspace. It
examines some of the competing organizational efforts and institutions
that are attempting to secure cyberspace and considers the broader
implications of the in-place and unfolding efforts--tracing how
different notions of cybersecurity are deployed and built into stable
routines and practices. Ultimately, the book explores the core tensions
that sit at the center of cybersecurity efforts, highlighting the ways
in which debates about cybersecurity are often inevitably about much
more.
