5.0 out of 5 stars Great overview of enterprise security issues, well written, December 9, 1997
By 
This review is from: NCSA Guide to Enterprise Security: Protecting Information Assets (McGraw-Hill Computer Communications Series) (Hardcover)
This is a well-written overview of the issues of security as a whole. Worth reading even if your enterprise is not all that huge. Not just a theoretical treatise, there are real examples here too.

It is clear that the author has both the experience and the expertise needed to address this topic with confidence and flair.

If security is a significant part of your job, read this book.
