Just finished consuming this supplemental text of cases for a Information Security course I am taking at a rural university in Kansas.From the first previous review:"The case studies presented in this book describe examples of information security problems faced by real organizations. They are analyzed in depth and each one covers a different area. There are seven case studies in all and they are:*) Kraft Foods Inc.: Protecting Employee Data*) Advo Inc.: Integrating IT and Physical Security*) Yale New Haven Center For Emergency Preparedness and Disaster Response: Contingency Planning*) IBM: The Embedded Security Subsystem*) SRA International, Inc.: Automating Compliance with Federal Information Security Requirements*) FBI New Haven Field Office - A Computer Analysis and Response Team: Tracking a Computer Intruder*) Aetna: Developing and Implementing a Successful Information Security Awareness Program"My review starts here.I give this at least 3 stars, which I think is good to very good. The material is a very good high level overview of Information Security terminology and the cases reflect what I have experienced working with industry and government over the last few decades. You will notice a little regional slant to the northeast area of the United States. The case study of Yale New Haven Center seems to add more 'related information' to Infosec.Case studies in general are used in many well known graduate studies courses, this text is very appropriate to the enhancement of knowledge in the infosec educational process, case study method.
I love when I don't get tricked into buying an international edition :D Thanks! Came on time and everything!
