Information Assurance Handbook: Effective Computer Security and Risk Management Strategies

Arrived on time and in brand new condition. Content from Section One is good. True test is if I pass the subject this book is required reading for...

Great book. It covers a variety of topics and gives good detail and explanation.

Good book of this type. So many are cookie cutter but this book has quickly become a valued resource for me. Highly recommended.

Very helpful reference guide particularly if you have none to begin with. Great starting point!

Product received as advertised, and fast shipping.

The notion of “information assurance” is not necessarily synonymous with information security. In Information Assurance Handbook: Effective Computer Security and Risk Management Strategies, authors Corey Schou and Steven Hernandez examine the subtle differences.Information assurance is about assuring information and managing risks related to all aspects of the data. It takes a broader approach to the topic, as opposed to just focusing on security from a policy and firewall perspective.This book provides a look at the tools and techniques that are needed to protect data. The dense volume covers the entire range of information assurance topics, including basic principles and concepts, information assurance management systems, information assurance in system development, and acquisition and information assurance awareness, training, and education. The book also reviews various information security monitoring tools and how to use them.Those looking for an excellent reference on the topic that is both broad and deep will find that Information Assurance Handbook fits the bill.

Thank you so much

A lot of information, but vague.

Excellent book worth the money.

I'm not overly impressed with this book. I was hoping for something that could guide my through the process of producing a strategy and management plan.It was so theoretical and high level it wasn't as good as some beginner books.May be I was hoping for to much from a book, but based on the positive reviews I was hoping for more.
