By addressing these challenges head-on, we aim to empower engineers, researchers, and policymakers with the knowledge and tools necessary to build resilient and secure 6G networks that safeguard user privacy and data integrity in an increasingly interconnected world. By dissecting the complexities of 6G architecture and protocols, the book equips readers with a nuanced understanding of the unique security and privacy considerations that must be addressed in the design and implementation of these transformative systems.

Leverage your smartphone and smartwatch for improved personal safety! Version 2.0, updated November 12, 2025 The digital and “real” worlds can both be scary places. The smartphone (and often smartwatch) you already carry with you can help reduce risks, deter theft, and mitigate violence. This book teaches you to secure your hardware, block abuse, automatically call emergency services, connect with others to ensure you arrive where and when you intended, detect stalking by compact trackers, and keep your ecosystem accounts from Apple, Google, and Microsoft secure. You don’t have to be reminded of the virtual and physical risks you face every day. Some of us are targeted more than others. Modern digital features built into mobile operating systems (and some computer operating systems) can help reduce our anxiety by putting more power in our hands to deter, deflect, block, and respond to abuse, threats, and emergencies. Keep Safe Using Mobile Tech looks at both digital threats, like online abuse and account hijacking, and ones in the physical world, like being stalked through Bluetooth trackers, facing domestic violence, or being in a car crash. The book principally covers the iPhone, Apple Watch, Android devices, and Wear OS watches. It also covers more limited but useful features available on the iPad and on computers running macOS or Windows. This second edition incorporates the massive number of new safety features Google added since October 2024 to the Android operating system, some particular to Google Pixel phones and smartwatches, and improved blocking, filtering, and screening added to Apple’s iOS 26 and related operating system updates in fall 2025. This book explores many techniques to help:

Learn how to harden your Apple Account, Google Account, and Microsoft Account beyond just a password or a text-message token. Discover filtering and blocking tools from Apple and Google that can prevent abusive, fraudulent, and phishing messages and calls from reaching you. Block seeing unwanted sensitive images on your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, or Android phone—and help your kids receive advice on how not to send them. Turn on tracking on your Apple, Google, and Microsoft devices, and use it to recover or erase stolen hardware. Keep your cloud-archived messages from leaking to attackers. Screen calls with an automated assistant so that you know who wants you before picking up and without sending to voicemail. Lock down your devices to keep thieves and other personal invaders from accessing them. Prepare for emergencies by setting up medical information on your mobile devices. Let a supported smartphone or smartwatch recognize when you’re in a car crash or have taken a hard fall and call emergency services for you (and text your emergency contacts) if you can’t respond. Keep track of heart anomalies through smartwatch alerts and tests on your Apple Watch and many Android Wear smartwatches. Tell others where or when you expect to check in with them again, and let your smartphone alert them if you don’t with your Apple iPhone or Android phone. Deter stalking from tiny Bluetooth trackers. Protect your devices and accounts against access from domestic assailants. Block thieves who steal your phone—potentially threatening you or attacking you in person—from gaining access to the rest of your digital life.

Many organizations today analyze and share large, sensitive datasets about individuals. Whether these datasets cover healthcare details, financial records, or exam scores, it's become more difficult for organizations to protect an individual's information through deidentification, anonymization, and other traditional statistical disclosure limitation techniques. This practical book explains how differential privacy (DP) can help. Authors Ethan Cowan, Michael Shoemate, and Mayana Pereira explain how these techniques enable data scientists, researchers, and programmers to run statistical analyses that hide the contribution of any single individual. You'll dive into basic DP concepts and understand how to use open source tools to create differentially private statistics, explore how to assess the utility/privacy trade-offs, and learn how to integrate differential privacy into workflows. With this book, you'll learn: How DP guarantees privacy when other data anonymization methods don't What preserving individual privacy in a dataset entails How to apply DP in several real-world scenarios and datasets Potential privacy attack methods, including what it means to perform a reidentification attack How to use the OpenDP library in privacy-preserving data releases How to interpret guarantees provided by specific DP data releases

Discover the strategies, secrets and stories behind the cyber attacks that target businesses and individuals across the world and learn how you can safeguard yourself against them.

Future-proof yourself and your organization against known threats to privacy and online safety The subject of data ethics has never been more urgent. This is no longer an academic or niche geek issue as it has been since the inception of the internet and the world wide web. Data ethics is an issue that affects all of us now as our personal and professional lives increasingly take place online. Who controls access to the hardware, who runs the software, who can spy on us, hack us, data farm us? What are the threats that we need to mitigate against democratically, societally, and personally? How can corporations protect us and how can that help their bottom line? The Privacy Mission aims to answer these questions and summarise both the overarching concepts and principles about why data ethics is important. It offers practical solutions for companies, policy makers and individuals to push back against known threats and future proof themselves going forward.

Today, more than 80% of the data transmitted over networks and archived on our computers, tablets, cell phones or clouds is multimedia data - images, videos, audio, 3D data. The applications of this data range from video games to healthcare, and include computer-aided design, video surveillance and biometrics. It is becoming increasingly urgent to secure this data, not only during transmission and archiving, but also during its retrieval and use. Indeed, in today’s "all-digital" world, it is becoming ever-easier to copy data, view it unrightfully, steal it or falsify it. Multimedia Security 1 analyzes the issues of the authentication of multimedia data, code and the embedding of hidden data, both from the point of view of defense and attack. Regarding the embedding of hidden data, it also covers invisibility, color, tracing and 3D data, as well as the detection of hidden messages in an image by steganalysis.
