Book Description

August 1, 2009
Security Sound Bites offers quotes, observations, and anecdotes about security that'll make you think and make you laugh. We hear from the likes of Britney Spears and Albert Einstein, B movie dialog through ancient Greek dead guys, John Locke to Dan Quayle. Whether you're a cop, security officer, IT professional, security sales person, technician, government employee, or security manager, you'll find food for thought in this unique book. These quirky quotations can be used as a springboard for discussion with your security colleagues, or as an interesting way to open a meeting or close an email. Or they can be something to ponder on your own. There are over 1500 quotations covering 46 topics including IT security, security management, cryptography, biometrics & access control, vulnerability assessments, risk management, locks & seals, homeland security, crime, and the insider threat. Includes insightful and irreverent commentary from an experienced vulnerability assessor.
