Managing Information Systems Security and Privacy

by Denis Trcek

The book deals with the management of information systems security and privacy, based on a model that covers technological, organizational and legal views. This is the basis for a focused and methodologically structured approach that presents "the big picture" of information systems security and privacy, while targeting managers and technical profiles. The book addresses principles in the background, regardless of a particular technology or organization. It enables a reader to suit these principles to an organization's needs and to implement them accordingly by using explicit procedures from the book. Additionally, the content is aligned with relevant standards and the latest trends. Scientists from social and technical sciences are supposed to find a framework for further research in this broad area, characterized by a complex interplay between human factors and technical issues.

To quote the preface of the book: Last but not least, the book bridges the gap between pure science and its results in a form of contemporary solutions that can be already applied in production environments.. And that's all you need to know. The book summarizes all the necessary components of information systems security and privacy, and if you're into mathematical details, then there are pages for those too.

It's a bit expensive for a students budget, but you can get it on Springerlink for free through any library that's registered in the Springerlink program.
