Computer Intrusion Detection and Network Monitoring

This book discusses the timely topic of computer intrusion. It is the first book to present a data-centered approach to these problems, and it will be of interest to researchers and practitioners in statistics and computer science interested in computer security. The book is self -contained, assuming no expertise in computer security or statistics.

Addresses the timely topic of computer security Self-contained and assumes no expertise in computer security or statistics Accessible to computer scientists, computer security professionals, and statisticians Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
