Abstract
It's a war out there. Security of our computer systems and networks (“cybersystems”) is under serious attack these days from a variety of malicious people: cybercriminals, spies (both government and industrial), disgruntled insiders within organizations, amateur “hackers” (Poulsen 2012), and terrorists (Colarik 2006). They exploit flaws in software to misuse it for their own ends of making money, advancing their agendas, and enjoying power over others.
