暫譯: 網路安全與倫理：透過倫理視角理解網路安全—識別威脅、防禦系統及法律導航（英文版）

As digital services move to cloud, mobile, and online platforms, cybersecurity and cyber law have become inseparable. Technical controls reduce risk, while legal and ethical frameworks define what is acceptable, accountable, and defensible when incidents occur.

This book starts with computing, networks, and cyber ethics, then builds core security concepts such as threats, vulnerabilities, and cryptography. It explains common cybercrimes and attack patterns, and related governance mechanisms, and walks through investigation, digital evidence, and forensic methods. Later chapters cover electronic records and e-governance, intellectual property in cyberspace, e-commerce law and consumer protection, international cyber law (including treaties and cross-border issues), and, finally human rights topics such as privacy, surveillance, speech, and access.

By the end, readers will navigate cybersecurity with ethical insight, recognizing risks, understanding compliance, and applying sound legal and ethical reasoning in practice.
