Dal risvolto di copertina interno

"Hard-hitting, priceless wisdom around fixing our broken information security industry model. Success like Evan's leaves clues. You're sure to find yours within this compelling book." --Nick Hernandez, cofounder and former CEO, Aeritae Consulting Group "Evan's straightforward analysis is spot on. His 'prairie-style' writing weaves honesty, humor, sidebars, and stories into a cohesive format that's enlightening and challenging at the same time."---Theresa Semmens, CISO, University of Miami "A beacon of hope for misunderstood information security professionals everywhere. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to truly learn what works and how to do it right. Evan Francen is the expert." --Serge Suponitskiy, CTO, Flight Centre Travel Group "Evan has put together a masterful plan to professionalize our industry by standardizing our language and making it understandable to the 'normal' people in business. It's a great read and provides a solid foundation. I highly recommend it." --Tony Cole, CTO, Attivo Networks; member of the board of directors, WhiteHat USA; member of the NASA Advisory Council, NASA; and member of the board of directors, (ISC)? "Evan is personally committed to bringing together a fractured industry. He pulls back the shroud from information security and speaks a simple truth to the fabric of our trade. You'll come away with a deeper understanding of the problem and how to be part of the solution." --Dixon Gould, SVP/CIO/CISO "The 'hope and a prayer' version of cybersecurity practiced by most organizations is being inconveniently exploited everywhere. The first step to getting better is to admit that you have a problem and to define it. The second step is to adopt the solutions presented by a truly passionate expert. The only reason not to buy two copies (one for you, one for your IT person) is that you'll no longer have any excuses." --Tom Kieffer, CEO, Virteva
