Discover all the security risks and exploits that can threaten iOS-based mobile devices iOS is Apple's mobile operating system for the iPhone and iPad. With the introduction of iOS5, many security issues have come to light. This book explains and discusses them all. The award-winning author team, experts in Mac and iOS security, examines the vulnerabilities and the internals of iOS to show how attacks can be mitigated. The book explains how the operating system works, its overall security architecture, and the security risks associated with it, as well as exploits, rootkits, and other payloads developed for it. Covers iOS security architecture, vulnerability hunting, exploit writing, and how iOS jailbreaks work Explores iOS enterprise and encryption, code signing and memory protection, sandboxing, iPhone fuzzing, exploitation, ROP payloads, and baseband attacks Also examines kernel debugging and exploitation Companion website includes source code and tools to facilitate your efforts iOS Hacker's Handbook arms you with the tools needed to identify, understand, and foil iOS attacks.
Written by two experienced penetration testers the material presented discusses the basics of the OS X environment and its vulnerabilities. Including but limited to; application porting, virtualization utilization and offensive tactics at the kernel, OS and wireless level. This book provides a comprehensive in-depth guide to exploiting and compromising the OS X platform while offering the necessary defense and countermeasure techniques that can be used to stop hackers As a resource to the reader, the companion website will provide links from the authors, commentary and updates. - Provides relevant information including some of the latest OS X threats - Easily accessible to those without any prior OS X experience - Useful tips and strategies for exploiting and compromising OS X systems - Includes discussion of defensive and countermeasure applications and how to use them - Covers mobile IOS vulnerabilities
Securing the Smart Grid discusses the features of the smart grid, particularly its strengths and weaknesses, to better understand threats and attacks, and to prevent insecure deployments of smart grid technologies. A smart grid is a modernized electric grid that uses information and communications technology to be able to process information, such as the behaviors of suppliers and consumers. The book discusses different infrastructures in a smart grid, such as the automatic metering infrastructure (AMI). It also discusses the controls that consumers, device manufacturers, and utility companies can use to minimize the risk associated with the smart grid. It explains the smart grid components ...
This book presents state-of-the-art contributions from both scientists and practitioners working in intrusion detection and prevention for mobile networks, services, and devices. It covers fundamental theory, techniques, applications, as well as practical experiences concerning intrusion detection and prevention for the mobile ecosystem. It also includes surveys, simulations, practical results and case studies.
Recently, mobile security has garnered considerable interest in both the research community and industry due to the popularity of smartphones. The current smartphone platforms are open systems that allow application development, also for malicious parties. To protect the mobile device, its user, and other mobile ecosystem stakeholders such as network operators, application execution is controlled by a platform security architecture. This book explores how such mobile platform security architectures work. We present a generic model for mobile platform security architectures: the model illustrates commonly used security mechanisms and techniques in mobile devices and allows a systematic comparison of different platforms. We analyze several mobile platforms using the model. In addition, this book explains hardware-security mechanisms typically present in a mobile device. We also discuss enterprise security extensions for mobile platforms and survey recent research in the area of mobile platform security. The objective of this book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current status of mobile platform security for students, researchers, and practitioners.
Apple betont gerne, wie sicher iOS ist. Doch jede Sicherheit ist relativ, wenn eine App nicht ausreichend geschützt ist. Dieses Buch erläutert die Möglichkeiten für Angriffe auf iOS-Geräte sowie iOS-Apps und erläutert, welche Schwachstellen sich im System befinden. Gleichzeitig werden die Schutzmaßnahmen wie die Sandbox, die Key Chain und weitere Apple Sicherheitsfunktionen so offengelegt, dass Sie deren Möglichkeiten voll ausnutzen und Ihre App richtig schützen können.
If you’re an app developer with a solid foundation in Objective-C, this book is an absolute must—chances are very high that your company’s iOS applications are vulnerable to attack. That’s because malicious attackers now use an arsenal of tools to reverse-engineer, trace, and manipulate applications in ways that most programmers aren’t aware of. This guide illustrates several types of iOS attacks, as well as the tools and techniques that hackers use. You’ll learn best practices to help protect your applications, and discover how important it is to understand and strategize like your adversary. Examine subtle vulnerabilities in real-world applications—and avoid the same problems in your apps Learn how attackers infect apps with malware through code injection Discover how attackers defeat iOS keychain and data-protection encryption Use a debugger and custom code injection to manipulate the runtime Objective-C environment Prevent attackers from hijacking SSL sessions and stealing traffic Securely delete files and design your apps to prevent forensic data leakage Avoid debugging abuse, validate the integrity of run-time classes, and make your code harder to trace
Growing dependence on cyberspace for commerce, communication, governance, and military operations has left society vulnerable to a multitude of security threats. Mitigating the inherent risks associated with the use of cyberspace poses a series of thorny public policy problems. In this volume, academics, practitioners from both private sector and government, along with former service members come together to highlight sixteen of the most pressing contemporary challenges in cybersecurity, and to offer recommendations for the future. As internet connectivity continues to spread, this book will offer readers greater awareness of the threats of tomorrow—and serve to inform public debate into t...
더 빠르고, 복잡하고, 예측 불가능해진 미래반드시 알아야 할 9가지 성공원칙 인터넷 이전에 삶은 단순했다. 그러나 모든 것이 빠르게 변화하는 오늘날, 인간은 자신이 만들어 낸 기술을 따라잡지 못하고 있다. 전화기, 영화, 컴퓨터, 인터넷의 중요성을 알아보지 못했던 앞선 사람들의 실수를 어떻게 반복하지 않을 수 있을까? 세계적인 미디어융합 연구소인 MIT 미디어랩이 설립 이래 언제나 기술 변화의 첨단에 있었던 것은 완전히 새로운 생각의 ’원칙’을 따랐기 때문이다. 바로 『나인』에서 MIT 미디어랩의 소장 조이 이토가 제시하는 9가지 원칙이다.
