1. AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning: A Security Perspective
2023 by Fei Hu, Xiali Hei
Imagine, if you will, a book that takes the labyrinthine twists of AI, machine learning and deep learning, holds them up to the light of security threats and says, "Hang on, that looks a bit dodgy." AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning: A Security Perspective is not just a book—it's a guidebook to a digital jungle where clever attacks lurk in the undergrowth and your algorithms might spontaneously grow sentience and start making terrible decisions. It explores not only how to fend off these potentially catastrophic incursions but also how to turn the tables and use AI itself as a kind of overly enthusiastic watchdog. It’s part spy thriller, part survival manual and part dizzying math tutorial, tackling everything from cyber assaults so intricate they make fractals look like child’s play, to pragmatic, code-friendly countermeasures. If you've ever wanted to see advanced security threats dissected with the precision of a sushi chef and wondered whether your privacy was less "protected bubble" and more "Swiss cheese," this is the book for you. Plus, it does all this while making the distinction between ML and DL security issues seem like something you always knew, but had just forgotten to think about. Truly, it’s the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the AI Security Galaxy—minus the towels but with more equations.

2. AI Tools for Protecting and Preventing Sophisticated Cyber Attacks
2023 by Babulak, Eduard
In the sprawling, bewildering universe of ones, zeroes and occasional exclamation marks, where your email password is as fragile as a biscuit left out in the rain, AI Tools for Protecting and Preventing Sophisticated Cyber Attacks comes hurtling into the scene like a hyper-intelligent toaster armed with a user manual for the fate of cyberspace. With all the enthusiasm of a slightly paranoid android, this book embarks on a dazzling exploration of how artificial intelligence is saving the day (and your online shopping carts) from the shadowy machinations of nefarious cyber foes. Packed with peer-reviewed insights, brain-bending metrics and a toolkit that would make even the most jaded IT administrator do a double take, it’s a must-have for anyone who suspects their router might secretly be plotting against them—or just wants to keep the internet ticking along without accidentally inviting Armageddon.

3. Artificial Intelligence and National Security
2022 by Reza Montasari
In a world where Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a handy way to get your toaster to talk to your fridge but also a potential threat to democracy, Artificial Intelligence and National Security dives headfirst into the quagmire of technical, legal and ethical dilemmas with all the enthusiasm of a Vogon poet composing an ode to bureaucracy. Reza Montasari explores how AI’s charmingly dual nature—capable of saving lives or ruining them, sometimes in the same breath—has governments both excited and slightly terrified. From Western Democracies nervously deploying AI to protect their borders (and occasionally snoop a little too much) to the chilling prospect of digital policing trampling on human rights like a herd of mildly tipsy robots, this book unpacks it all. If you’ve ever wondered how privacy, civil liberties and national security could fit in a blender without anyone pressing the "smoothie" button, this might just be your guide.

4. Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity
2022 by Mark Stamp, Corrado Aaron Visaggio, Francesco Mercaldo, Fabio Di Troia
Artificial Intelligence for Cybersecurity: a book that boldly ventures where few have dared—into the perplexing, mildly terrifying and occasionally amusing confluence of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. It’s a tale of deep learning algorithms bravely confronting malware with all the gusto of a small, panicky robot trying to explain why it accidentally encrypted the tea kettle. Along the way, you'll find ‘explainable AI’ that almost makes sense (but only on Tuesdays), ‘adversarial learning’ that fights back when you least expect it and ‘resilient AI’ that doesn’t take “Access Denied” for an answer. Whether you’re a student, researcher, or someone who thinks “cybersecurity” just means not writing down your passwords on sticky notes, this indispensable guide will illuminate how machines are learning to outwit both hackers and humans—often simultaneously.

5. Big Data Privacy and Security in Smart Cities
2022 by Richard Jiang, Ahmed Bouridane, Chang-Tsun Li, Danny Crookes, Said Boussakta, Feng Hao, Eran A. Edirisinghe
In a universe where cities grow smarter, but the people inside them stubbornly don’t, Big Data Privacy and Security in Smart Cities bursts onto the scene with all the understated grace of a blockchain trying to explain itself to a toaster. This delightful compendium explores the curious alchemy of biometrics, machine learning and cloud security, all while grappling with the pesky business of privacy, a concept most smart cities accidentally left behind like an umbrella on a rainy day. From e-governance to e-commerce and everything e in between, this book dives headfirst into the challenges of living in a world where your thermostat knows your secrets and your fridge is planning a coup. Packed with insights, strategies and possibly an encrypted love letter to data encryption itself, it offers a glimpse at how to keep our shiny digital metropolises from turning into dystopian surveillance theme parks—or at least makes a valiant attempt to try.

6. Policing in the Era of AI and Smart Societies
2020 by Hamid Jahankhani, Babak Akhgar, Peter Cochrane, Mohammad Dastbaz
In an era where artificial intelligence is either a miraculous boon or a cosmic joke waiting to unravel, Policing in the Era of AI and Smart Societies serves as a kind of intergalactic hitchhiker’s guide to the bewildering crossroad of law enforcement and technology. Imagine if a cyber-criminologist, an IT law guru and a security expert walked into a bar... only to find it’s been replaced by a fully automated crime-detecting smart system that arrests them for jaywalking. This book dives headlong into the amusingly terrifying and occasionally brilliant collaborations between researchers and practitioners as they attempt to navigate the increasingly sentient digital society and its ceaselessly perplexing rules, like trying to decode the recipe for Pan Galactic Gargle Blasters using legal precedents.
