The information security field is a challenging one accompanied with many unsolved problems and numerous debates on solving such problems. In contrast to other fields such as physics, astronomy and similar sciences this one hasn’t had a chance to be succumbed to scrupulous theoretical reviews before we find these problems dramatically affecting the world we live in. The Internet is the proving grounds for security research and it’s a constant battle to stay appropriately defended against the offensive research that is conducted on this living virtual organism. There are a lot of industry hype out there convoluting the true tradecraft of information security, and more specifically in regards to “analytics” and “Big Data” and then this book hits the shelves essentially in an effort to truly enlighten the audience on what the genuine value is gained when applying data science to enhance your security research. This informative tome is not meant to be quickly read and understood by the average audience, but instead this book rightfully deserves the audience of researchers and security practitioners dedicated to their work and who seek to apply it in a practical and preemptive way to apply data science to solve increasingly difficult information security problems.
