Inhaltsangabe

Cybersecurity is a powerful concept often examined through the lens of national security and organizational risks. It however demands a deeper understanding to empower our societies--and ourselves--to thrive in the digital context. This edited collection explores a new approach to human-centric cybersecurity: the security of self. It invites a paradigm shift where cybersecurity's core purpose is to protect people--and society--from harm, and where empowering individual and collective rights defines what it means to provide a secure cyber environment. With a distinct Canadian focus, and case studies spanning the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, virtual reality and social media, this collection charts a path forward for cybersecurity, grounded in law, policy and practices that advance the security of self. This collection serves as a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, regulators and individuals seeking to understand and shape the future of human-centric cybersecurity.
