Articulately written and flows well. Most of the recommendations and suggestions the author offers in the book are straightforward and should be practiced by every security professional, or the security professional will find that after reading the book they have already been following most of the author's advice and the book would serve to validate many of what they've been practicing all along. Practical, sound and easy-to-implement advice is always welcome in a day and age when 'sounding complex' to make one look smarter is all too common.

Tells the evolving security stance of a leading tech company through the eyes of their CISO from locked down command and control to their current stance of protect to enable. With this stance they embrace new technology to give their employees what they want while still protecting corporate assets.

Good security reference, but too much Intel for my taste.
