Security Principles and Practice for Computer Science Students provides a clear, structured introduction to cybersecurity for undergraduate computer science students and other readers who need a practical foundation in how security affects software, systems, data, networks, users, and organisations.

Security is not a separate topic that sits outside normal computing practice. It shapes the way software is designed, code is written, systems are configured, data is protected, users are authenticated, incidents are handled, and technical decisions are justified. This book treats security as a core part of computer science, rather than as a collection of specialist tools or isolated attack techniques.

Written in an accessible textbook style, the book explains essential security principles without assuming prior specialist cybersecurity knowledge. It is aimed at students who are developing their general computing skills and need to understand how secure systems are designed, implemented, assessed, operated, and improved in real settings.

Across the book, students are introduced to topics including:

- security as part of computer science practice
