Deceptive Intelligence
This book explores the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on social engineering and testing, offering a timely and necessary guide for navigating one of the most pressing challenges in modern cybersecurity. AI is not only revolutionizing how attackers exploit vulnerabilities but also how defenders test and strengthen their systems. With over 80% of data breaches attributed to human error or social engineering, and phishing responsible for 36% of successful cyberattacks, the stakes for organizations are higher than ever. The rise of AI tools capable of automating these attacks has introduced new complexities, making it critical for organizations to adopt advanced strategies to test their resilience. The book's core mission is to equip cybersecurity professionals with the tools, knowledge, and frameworks to counter these AI-driven threats ethically and effectively. Readers will discover how to simulate sophisticated AI-enabled attacks, from deepfake impersonations to multi-channel phishing campaigns, all while respecting ethical boundaries. Practical applications are emphasized, such as leveraging open-source tools to mimic real-world attack scenarios and using AI to analyze human vulnerabilities. It also provides actionable guidance on building defenses and training programs that reflect the rapidly evolving threat landscape. As AI tools like ChatGPT, deepfake generators, and voice synthesis platforms become increasingly accessible, their misuse in crafting malicious campaigns is accelerating. Research shows that 83% of organizations experienced a successful phishing attack in 2022, while incidents involving deepfakes rose 300% compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, the widespread availability of personal information on social media has created fertile ground for AI-driven reconnaissance, making targeted social engineering easier and more effective than ever. This book directly addresses these challenges, showing how to test against these threats before attackers can exploit them. What makes this book essential is its focus on preparing organizations for the future of security testing. It goes beyond describing threats by offering a blueprint for integrating AI into their existing workflows, enabling defenders to think like attackers and stay one step ahead. From actionable case studies to ethical frameworks, it provides a comprehensive resource for testing and improving defenses in environments where the line between human and machine deception grows increasingly blurred. This is not just a book about threats--it's a call to action for organizations to evolve their approach to security and embrace AI's potential to strengthen their defenses.

Data Security
Using many practical examples and notes, the book offers an easy-to-understand introduction to technical and organizational data security. It provides an insight into the technical knowledge that is mandatory for data protection officers. Data security is an inseparable part of data protection, which is becoming more and more important in our society. It can only be implemented effectively if there is an understanding of technical interrelationships and threats. Data security covers much more information than just personal data. It secures all data and thus the continued existence of companies and organizations.This book is a translation of the original German 2nd edition Datensicherheit by Thomas H. Lenhard, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

Security and Game Theory
Global threats of terrorism, drug-smuggling and other crimes have led to a significant increase in research on game theory for security. Game theory provides a sound mathematical approach to deploy limited security resources to maximize their effectiveness. A typical approach is to randomize security schedules to avoid predictability, with the randomization using artificial intelligence techniques to take into account the importance of different targets and potential adversary reactions. This book distills the forefront of this research to provide the first and only study of long-term deployed applications of game theory for security for key organizations such as the Los Angeles International Airport police and the US Federal Air Marshals Service. The author and his research group draw from their extensive experience working with security officials to intelligently allocate limited security resources to protect targets, outlining the applications of these algorithms in research and the real world.
