Annie and Taylor fell in love. She, a waitress and he, a financial wizard. They moved to a cabin on the slopes of Maui's Haleakala, a small piece of Hawaiian heaven with a beautiful world spread at their feet. When Taylor suddenly dies, Annie's world dissolves. His death reveals who he was not. His lies profound. He'd lied about an inheritance received and lied about his name - Taylor Gordon had never existed. On a beautiful sunny day, Kensington Stone and LLoyd Moniz, fishing on Stone's yacht close to the island of Molokai, they saw and saved a woman from drowning. It was Annie Gaines. With their help, they uncovered the truth that Gordon was not who he claimed to be and discovered the benefactor of Taylor's supposed inheritance had never existed. He had been embezzling huge sums of money. Physical threats soon inundated Annie all because Gordon failed to realize, when he began stealing, that he was embezzling from the son of the notorious Gravello crime family from Sicily. Anthony Gravello wanted his money back and was quite willing to go to extremes to get it - even if it cost Annie her life.

The proposed model covers targets of the faker, response styles shown, and methods to detect the deception. The goal is to summarize the historical and latest information on distortion detection, to present guidelines for detecting deception that include variable accuracy rates based on different detection techniques, and to stimulate further research of effective methods of deception detection.

This book is an introduction to both offensive and defensive techniques of cyberdeception. Unlike most books on cyberdeception, this book focuses on methods rather than detection. It treats cyberdeception techniques that are current, novel, and practical, and that go well beyond traditional honeypots. It contains features friendly for classroom use: (1) minimal use of programming details and mathematics, (2) modular chapters that can be covered in many orders, (3) exercises with each chapter, and (4) an extensive reference list.Cyberattacks have grown serious enough that understanding and using deception is essential to safe operation in cyberspace. The deception techniques covered are impersonation, delays, fakes, camouflage, false excuses, and social engineering. Special attention is devoted to cyberdeception in industrial control systems and within operating systems. This material is supported by a detailed discussion of how to plan deceptions and calculate their detectability and effectiveness. Some of the chapters provide further technical details of specific deception techniques and their application. Cyberdeception can be conducted ethically and efficiently when necessary by following a few basic principles. This book is intended for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students, as well as computer professionals learning on their own. It will be especially useful for anyone who helps run important and essential computer systems such as critical-infrastructure and military systems.
