Inhaltsangabe

No one ever arrested a computer for computer crime.
 
The real threat to information systems security comes from people, not computers. That's why students need to understand both the technical implementation of security controls, as well as the softer human behavioral and managerial factors that contribute to the theft and sabotage of proprietary data.
 
Addressing both the technical and human side of information systems security, Dhillon's Principles of Information Systems Security helps future managers understand the broad range of technical, managerial, ethical, and legal issues related to IS security, and equips them with specific tools and techniques to support effective IS security management.
 
Key Features
* Balanced coverage addresses the social and technical nature of IS security.
* Takes a managerial orientation, presenting key security challenges that information technology managers commonly face.
* Provides an analytical framework to conceptualize IS security problems.
* Draws on a range of disciplines, such as computer science, sociology, law, anthropology, and behavioral science.
* Cases put the theoretical material in real-life context.
