Why read it?
2 authors picked Security Engineering as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
When I take this book off my shelf, the probability that I find the answer I'm looking for is very high. Yes, it's a big book, and I'm pretty sure I haven't read every single page yet, but because of its broad coverage of security engineering knowledge, from crypto to real-world processes, it is an invaluable reference for teaching and practical cyber security.
From Dominik's list on embedded system security enthusiasts.
One of the books that I open at least once a year, and which I always recommend to students and mentees. Security Engineering isn’t a book (only) about cryptography, yet one about a topic that a cryptographer should know well: security engineering, or the design, implementation, and testing of systems that must be reliable in hostile and adversarial environments. Cryptography is indeed often just a small, yet critical, component of larger security systems. A good cryptographer must therefore not limit themselves to their field, but understand the risks, practical constraints, and functional needs of the environment where cryptography is integrated.…
