Críticas

As a compendium of knowledge from recognized experts on information security, this book contains a wealth of information for security practitioners. It is a compilation of several important topics that are relevant to information security. As practitioner references go, this book is one that an information security practitioner should take notice of, since it touches on a number of timely information security topics and blends the practices of security with business. The book organizes the information security topics into ten domains, which various authors then cover. As the publisher's site states, the collection as a whole provides a 'compilation of the fundamental knowledge, skills, techniques, and tools required of information technology (IT) security professionals.' The ten domains are: Domain 1: Access Control Domain 2: Telecommunications and Network Security Domain 3: Information Security and Risk Management Domain 4: Application Security Domain 5: Cryptography Domain 6: Security Architecture and Design Domain 7: Operations Security Domain 8: Business Continuity Planning and Disaster Recovery Planning Domain 9: Law, Regulations, Compliance, and Investigation Domain 10: Physical Security Though all of the topics are interesting, from the perspective of emerging trends and technologies, the most interesting chapters are 'Managing Mobile Device Security,' 'Best Practices in Virtualization Security,' 'A Brief Summary of Warfare and Commercial Entities,' and 'Cyberstalking.' These four chapters resonate most with information security practitioners because each of these topics takes the form of a trend that occurs increasingly in both the news and in trade journals. I recommend this book, not only to information security practitioners but also to managers, executives, attorneys, risk managers, and technology operators. The book covers a significant number of important topics that are both timely and relevant to the contemporary practices one finds in daily life when performing a security duty within the discipline of information security. -Eric W.
