Riassunto

In a world that is demanding 24/7 availability of information and using increasingly complex types of technology, there are growing risks to information and its security. A compromise has to be struck between security of information and its availability. This book, and the ISEB 'Information Security Management Principles' qualification which it supports, provide significant first steps along the path of dealing with information security in a pragmatic and comprehensive manner.

Recensione

The security of personal information has never been of greater concern to the public. If the public s trust in those who hold their personal details is to be improved then information security cannot be left to chance. Implementing effective information security management principles is essential. The BCS provides valuable leadership in this area and this is a timely contribution to a vital process. --Richard Thomas, Information Commissioner.

The blurb on the cover indicates it is directed at business and IT managers but it is more likely to be of use to the worker who has to set up the system. To this end, encouragement and tips are given throughout on how to justify implementaton of the systems and controls to management. --IT Training Magazine

In looking for a technical book I look for authoritative writing; clarity of expression; knowledge; easy navigation and the sense that I am not having to work to find the information I need to get a job done. In this book I have found all of those things. Congratulations to the authors. --A senior Whitehall security specialist (anonymous for obvious reasons)
