    • Synthetic Media, Deepfakes, and Cyber Deception

      Attacks, Analysis, and Defenses
      • 1st Edition
      • Cameron H. Malin + 2 more
      • English
      Synthetic Media, Deepfakes, and Cyber Deception: Attacks, Analysis, and Defenses introduces the only analytical Synthetic Media Analysis Framework (SMAF) to help describe cyber threats and help security professionals anticipate and analyze attacks. This framework encompasses seven dimensions: Credibility, Control, Medium, Interactivity, Familiarity, Intended Target, and Evocation. Synthetic media is a broad term that encompasses the artificial manipulation, modification, and production of information, covering a spectrum from audio-video deepfakes to text-based chatbots. Synthetic media provides cyber attackers and scammers with a game-changing advantage over traditional ROSE attacks because they have the potential to convincingly impersonate close associates through text, imagery, voice, and video.This burgeoning threat has yet to be meaningfully addressed through any written treatment on the topic. The book is co-authored by three cyber influence and deception experts who have gained deep knowledge and experience on the topic through diverse, true operational pathways and backgrounds. The diversity and perspectives of the author team makes the content in the book the broadest and deepest treatment of synthetic media attacks available to readers.

    • Data Science and Interactive Visualization Tools for the Analysis of Qualitative Evidence

      • 1st Edition
      • Manuel González Canché
      • English
      Data Science and Interactive Visualization Tools for the Analysis of Qualitative Evidence empowers qualitative and mixed methods researchers in the data science movement by offering no-code, cost-free software access so that they can apply cutting-edge and innovative methods to synthetize qualitative data. The book builds on the idea that qualitative and mixed methods researchers should not have to learn to code to benefit from rigorous open-source, cost-free software that uses artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data visualization tools—just as people do not need to know C++ or TypeScript to benefit from Microsoft Word. The real barrier is the hundreds of R code lines required to apply these concepts to their databases. By removing the coding proficiency hurdle, this book will empower their research endeavors and help them become active members of and contributors to the applied data science community. The book offers a comprehensive explanation of data science and machine learning methodologies, along with access to software application tools to implement these techniques without any coding proficiency. The book addresses the need for innovative tools that enable researchers to tap into the insights that come out of cutting-edge data science tools with absolutely no computer language literacy requirements.
