The Security Hippie is Barak Engel's second book. As the originator
of the "Virtual CISO" (fractional security chief) concept, he has
served as security leader in dozens of notable organizations, such
as Mulesoft, Stubhub, Amplitude Analytics, and many others. The
Security Hippie follows his previous book, Why CISOs Fail, which
became a sleeper hit, earning a spot in the Cybercannon project as
a leading text on the topic of information security management. In
this new book, Barak looks at security purely through the lens of
story-telling, sharing many and varied experiences from his long
and accomplished career as organizational and thought leader, and
visionary in the information security field. Instead of
instructing, this book teaches by example, sharing many real
situations in the field and actual events from real companies, as
well as Barak's related takes and thought processes. An
out-of-the-mainstream, counterculture thinker - Hippie - in the
world of information security, Barak's rich background and unusual
approach to the field come forth in this book in vivid color and
detail, allowing the reader to sit back and enjoy these
experiences, and perhaps gain insights when faced with similar
issues themselves or within their organizations. The author works
hard to avoid technical terms as much as possible, and instead
focus on the human and behavioral side of security, finding the
humor inherent in every anecdote and using it to demystify the
field and connect with the reader. Importantly, these are not the
stories that made the news; yet they are the ones that happen all
the time. If you've ever wondered about the field of information
security, but have been intimidated by it, or simply wished for
more shared experiences, then The Security Hippie is the perfect
way to open that window by accompanying Barak on some of his many
travels into the land of security.
