Résumé

Environment examines why organisations need to take information assurance seriously - and covers the business, legal, and technical knowledge needed to do so. It bridges the gap between information security as a technical concept and information security as a business concept, and helps IS managers to manage security effectively so as to facilitate business processes and develop competitive advantage.
Key topics include:
- The role of the corporate security officer;
- Corporate cybercrime;
- Electronic commerce and the global marketplace;
- Cryptography;
- International standards, policies and security acts.
Written primarily as a reference for IS managers who need help in dealing with day-to-day security issues, this book will also provide invaluable reading for project managers, IT strategists, business managers and postgraduate students on conversion, Advanced Information Systems and MBA Management courses.
