"Nowadays we take it for granted that road and rail bridges stay
up and are a reliable part of the transport infrastructure. This was not
always the case, however, and it has only been through the development of
sound engineering principles and practices and learning from the
mistakes/disasters of the past that we have come to understand what is really
required to develop safe structures. ...By drawing on their hard won
experience the authors explore what can go wrong and what needs to be done to
address the many complex issues that can give rise to insecure software and
systems."
