This review is from: The Complete Guide to Internet Security (Hardcover)

I was looking for a book to help me understand the issues surrounding security as it relates to an intranet project that I am currently working on. I found this book by accident and I was pleased with the excellent content. I thought the book did an excellent job in providing background as well as direction for my particular project. It provided me with an informative and comprehensive overview of the security issues that I need to be aware of.

The book is very well organized and provides a 'blueprint' for providing an Internet Security professional the 'tools' to be able to mitigate controls to achieve the security objectives of 'availability, integrity and confidentiality'.

I found this book well organized, concise, and clearly written. It did not get mired in strictly technical jargon so that i could not "see the forest." Instead,it presents the major issues surrounding this topic and gives me enough information to begin developing my own IS strategy. Highly recommended!
