Book description

Clarifying the purpose and place of strategy in an information security program, this book explains how to select, develop, and deploy the security strategy best suited to an organization. It focuses on security strategy planning and execution to provide a comprehensive look at the structures and tools needed to build a security program that enables and enhances business processes. Divided into two parts, the first part considers business strategy and the second part details specific tactics that support the implementation of strategic planning initiatives, goals, and objectives.
