Liars and Outliers
Enabling the Trust that Society Needs to Thrive"One of the best books I've read this year is by a security technologist, Bruce Schneier. In Liars and Outliers, he sets out to investigate how trust works in society and in business, how it is betrayed and the degree to which technology changes all of that, for the better or the worse. Schneier absolutely understands how profoundly trust oils the wheels of business and of daily life." (Margaret Heffernan, CBS MoneyWatch) "This book will appeal not only to customers interested in computer security but also on the idea of security and trust as a whole in society." (The Bookseller, 16th December 2011) "This book should be read by anyone in a leadership role, whether they're in the corporate or political sphere... an easy read and the ideas and thoughts are profound." (Naked Security, February 2012) "By concentrating on the human angle and packing the book with real world examples he has successfully stretched its appeal outside that of the security specialist to the more general reader." (E & T Magazine, March 2012)

Automated Targeting System
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Automated Targeting System or ATS is a United States Department of Homeland Security computerized system that, for every person who crosses U.S. borders, scrutinizes a large volume of data related to that person (see below), and then automatically assigns a rating for which the expectation is that it helps gauge whether this person may be placed within a risk group of terrorists or other criminals. Similarly ATS analyzes data related to container cargo.

Solitaire (Cipher)
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Solitaire cryptographic algorithm was designed by Bruce Schneier "to allow field agents to communicate securely without having to rely on electronics or having to carry incriminating tools", at the request of Neal Stephenson for use in his novel Cryptonomicon. It was designed to be a manual cryptosystem calculated with an ordinary deck of playing cards. In Cryptonomicon, this algorithm was originally called Pontifex to hide the fact that it involved playing cards. One of the motivations behind Solitaire's creation is that in totalitarian environments, a deck of cards is far more affordable (and less incriminating) than a personal computer with an array of cryptological utilities. However, as Schneier warns in the appendix of Cryptonomicon, just about everyone with an interest in cryptanalysis will know about this algorithm. Cryptanalysis by Paul Crowley in 1999 shows that the probability that two successive outputs from the cipher are the same, contrary to what one might expect based on intuition, is not 1 in 26, but closer to 1 in 22.5.

The Transparent Society
High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Transparent Society (1998) is a non-fiction book by the science-fiction author David Brin in which he forecasts social transparency some degree of erosion of privacy, as it is overtaken by low-cost surveillance, communication and database technology, and proposes new institutions and practices that he believes would provide benefits that would more than compensate for lost privacy. The work first appeared as a magazine article by Brin in Wired in late 1996. In 2008, security expert Bruce Schneier called the transparent society concept a "myth" (a characterization Brin later rebutted), claiming it ignores wide differences in the relative power of those who access information. Brin argues that true privacy will be lost in the "transparent society"; however, we have the choice between one that offers the illusion of privacy by restricting the power of surveillance to authorities, or one that destroys that illusion by offering everyone access (including the ability to watch the watchers).

Snake Oil (Cryptography)
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. In cryptography, snake oil is a term used to describe commercial cryptographic methods and products which are considered bogus or fraudulent. The name derives from snake oil, one type of quack medicine widely available in 19th Century United States. Distinguishing secure cryptography from insecure cryptography can be difficult from the viewpoint of a user. Many cryptographers, such as Bruce Schneier and Phil Zimmermann, undertake to educate the public in how secure cryptography is done, as well as highlighting the misleading marketing of some cryptographic products. The Snake Oil FAQ describes itself as, "a compilation of common habits of snake oil vendors.

La mente dell'hacker. Trovare la falla per migliorare il sistema
Bruce Schneier, esperto di cybersecurity di fama mondiale, svela in La mente dell'hacker come l'hacking, in origine legato al mondo dell'informatica, sia oggi diventato una pratica onnipresente nei sistemi economici, finanziari e sociali. Attraverso un'analisi lucida e ricca di intuizioni innovative, Schneier guida il lettore alla scoperta delle vulnerabilità strutturali che definiscono il nostro mondo, dimostrando come ogni sistema, dalle leggi fiscali alle intelligenze artificiali, possa essere manipolato e sfruttato. Con esempi che spaziano dall'alta finanza alle elezioni politiche, l'autore rivela come gli hack, una volta relegati all'informatica, siano ormai strumenti chiave nella gestione del potere e del denaro nei suoi molteplici aspetti. La mente dell'hacker non è solo una diagnosi delle crepe che indeboliscono le nostre istituzioni, ma una riflessione profonda sulla resilienza dei sistemi e sulla necessità di saper riconoscere, e talvolta abbracciare, l'inevitabile evoluzione che l'hacking porta con sé. La mente dell'hacker è un saggio illuminante per tutti i lettori interessati ai grandi temi della politica, dell'economia e della cultura digitale. Schneier insegna a riconoscere le minacce nascoste dietro le pieghe dei sistemi che regolano la nostra vita quotidiana, offrendo gli strumenti per comprenderne il linguaggio e usarlo a proprio vantaggio. Un testo imprescindibile per chi vuole affrontare con consapevolezza le sfide della società moderna e imparare a difendersi in un mondo sempre più complesso e interconnesso.
