Supplying a high-level overview of how to protect your company’s physical and intangible assets, Asset Protection through Security Awareness explains the best ways to enlist the assistance of your employees as the first line of defense in safeguarding company assets and mitigating security risks. The author reviews key topics surrounding computer security—including privacy, access controls, and risk management—to help fill the gaps that might exist between management and the technicians securing your network systems.
In an accessible style that requires no previous networking or programming experience, the book delivers a practical approach to asset protection.
