Computer Insecurity
To be aware is to be secure. This book details the many different IT security problems and their potential impact on the bottom line. Written specifically for business managers, it emphasizes issues over technology: describing the variety of possible vulnerabilities and likely consequences rather than complex concepts and technologies. As a result, every business manager will come to understand how an IT system can be attacked, allowing for more informed and secure IT decisions to be made.
