| INFORMATION SYSTEMS SECURITY |
Security was, is, and will always be a double edged sword. you have to expose your
systems and applications to the external world in order to conduct business; but you
want to remain in control. how does one achieve this balance?
the best approach, it seems, is to understand information and communication systems
themselves, from a security viewpoint. then one needs to understand the 'soft
spots', where the systems can be exposed to intrusion and risks, within the overall
architecture and design of these systems. these areas of risks can span the entire
gamut of information systems including databases, networks, applications,
internet-based communication, web services, mobile technologies and people issues
associated with all of them. effective strategy to ameliorate the risks associated
with these aspects of it systems then needs to be developed, to provide businesses
with the confidence to operate in the real world. furthermore, with increasingly
stringent legislations, such as the sarbanes-oxley (sox) legislation, that impose
rigid auditing controls over businesses - particularly through their information and
communication systems - it is vital for businesses to be fully aware of the security
risks associated with their systems as well as the regulatory body pressures; and
develop and implement an effective strategy to handle those risks.
this book covers all of the aforementioned issues in depth. it covers all
significant aspects of security, as it deals with ict, and provides practicing ict
security professionals explanations to various aspects of information systems, their
corresponding security risks and how to embark on strategic approaches to reduce
and, preferably, eliminate those risks. the coverage of the book is vast, and the
relevant to immediate practice.
