The Digital Big Bang: The Hard Stuff, The Soft Stuff, And the Future of Cybersecurity explores approaching cybersecurity like science. Like the scientists of centuries ago who led the search for knowledge about the cosmic big bang, space and the science behind it, this book includes thoughtful observations, hypothesis, and conclusions on cyberspace and the ‘digital’ big bang from many of today’s cybersecurity leaders. The book is authored by Phil Quade, who brings three decades of security experience in numerous private and government organisations. He believes that: “Embracing cybersecurity as a science can be an incredibly powerful and effective way to underpin innovation.”
Further, the book contains contributions from more than 30 of the most accomplished leaders in the cybersecurity field who share their knowledge and experience from working on the front line in industries that keep changing in the world of digital transformation. These contributors represent the most important industries and organisations globally, including academia, airlines, financial management, healthcare and government.
