1.0 out of 5 stars Fooled by the title, May 23, 2001

By

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Disaster Recovery, Security & Risk Management (Spiral-bound)

This book is a trick! If I got to see this book in person, I would not have bought it! From the cover and brief description, I thought it would be a good guide on how risk management should be done in a corporate environment. It is no more than a "dictionary" of risk management and security terms. It doesn't tell you anything about how to do an risk assessment and BCP.

The materials covered are out of date also. It is a waste of money.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great resource for creating my companies Disaster Plan!, February 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Disaster Recovery, Security & Risk Management (Spiral-bound)

I am the disaster recovery planner for a large company. This book was a great tool when I began creating the DR plan for my company. It is so easy to read and follow. Anything that you need to know is at your fingertips. The alphabetical format makes navigation a breeze. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is responsible for the recovery of his or her business, or even his or her home. Whether you are a professional planner, or just curious about the industry, this book can be of use to you.

2.0 out of 5 stars Review of Encyclopedia of Disaster Recovery, April 5, 2000

By

This review is from: Encyclopedia of Disaster Recovery, Security & Risk Management (Spiral-bound)

The book is somewhat outdated and needs to be revised, especially the statistical data. The book is a black and white copy so it makes the graphs, which were originally in color, difficult to read.
