Book Description
Despite the increase of high-profile hacks,record-breaking data leaks,and ransomware attacks,many organizations don’t have the budget to establish or outsource an information security (InfoSec) program,forcing them to learn on the job. For companies obliged to improvise,this pragmatic guide provides a security-101 handbook with steps,tools,processes,and ideas to help you drive maximum-security improvement at little or no cost.
Each chapter in this book provides step-by-step instructions for dealing with a specific issue,including breaches and disasters,compliance,network infrastructure and password management,vulnerability scanning,and penetration testing,among others.
