Of the seventy-seven chapters in the fifth edition, twenty-five chapters are completely new, including:

1. Hardware Elements of Security

2. Fundamentals of Cryptography and Steganography

3. Mathematical models of information security

4. Insider threats

5. Social engineering and low-tech attacks

6. Spam, phishing, and Trojans: attacks meant to fool

7. Biometric authentication

8. VPNs and secure remote access

9. Securing Peer2Peer, IM, SMS, and collaboration tools
