Information Security A Practical Guide - Bridging the gap between IT and management

How do you engage with your peers when they think you’re there to stop them working?

Corporate information security is often hindered by a lack of adequate communication between the security team and the rest of the organization. Information security affects the whole company and is a responsibility shared by all staff, so failing to obtain wider acceptance can endanger the security of the entire organization. Many consider information security a block, not a benefit, however, and view security professionals with suspicion if not outright hostility.

Information Security: A Practical Guide addresses that issue by providing an overview of basic information security practices that will enable your security team to better engage with their peers to address the threats facing the organization as a whole.
