A groundbreaking exploration of trust, risk, and security

Trust is a central concept in computer software and hardware, but it remains poorly defined and even less understood. Many information technology professionals operate without an overarching, theory-based understanding of what trust is, how it is built, or how it is shared between computer systems and users.

In Trust in Computer Systems and the Cloud, renowned security expert Mike Bursell delivers an insightful and compelling treatment of how trust can be discussed, defined, and managed in many areas of computing. By anchoring his sophisticated, but approachable, exploration of the topic in the concept of understanding and quantifying risk, the author walks readers through the basic ideas of trust and the applications of trust to complex systems, open-source communities, and trust domains.

The book draws on recent scholarship in the social and computer sciences to explain contemporary trends in hardware and software security while maintaining a tight focus on pragmatic applications in computing. It serves as a practical starting point for decisions and discussions about trust, security, and risk. This approach establishes the core trust principles underlying Confidential Computing and introduces cross-disciplinary frameworks on which readers can build powerful new computing and cloud applications.

MIKE BURSELL is CEO and co-founder of Profian, a Confidential Computing company. He holds multiple security patents, is a sought-after speaker at global technology conferences, and has contributed to major reports and security specifications for the European Telecommunications Standards Institute.
