In today’s technology-driven environment there is an ever-increasing demand for information delivery. A compromise has to be struck between security and availability. This book is a pragmatic guide to information assurance for both business professionals and technical experts. The third edition has been updated to reflect changes in the IT security landscape and updates to the BCS Certification in Information Security Management Principles, which the book supports.

"'This book is fantastic for those studying information security management and as a desk-side reference. It is comprehensive yet concise. I would recommend this book to anybody studying for the qualification as well as anyone in senior management positions looking to understand the basics. The language used is refreshingly understandable, making the book accessible to those outside the specialism.'" - Group Information Security Manager, The Jockey Club
