As engineers, we often face the problem of ensuring system reliability by protecting against impairments that are random but regular and statistically predictable, or providing safety against virtually unpredictable, possibly catastrophic, yet rare events. Security is the only field where we have to confront a cunning adversary who makes every effort to be unpredictable and will consistently exploit any vulnerability in our design.
