The new emphasis on physical security resulting from the terrorist
threat has forced many information security professionals to
struggle to maintain their organization's focus on protecting
information assets. In order to command attention, they need to
emphasize the broader role of information security in the strategy
of their companies. Until now, however, most books about strategy
and planning have focused on the production side of the business,
rather than operations. Strategic Information Security integrates
the importance of sound security policy with the strategic goals of
an organization. It provides IT professionals and management with
insight into the issues surrounding the goals of protecting
valuable information assets. This text reiterates that an effective
information security program relies on more than policies or
hardware and software, instead it hinges on having a mindset that
security is a core part of the business and not just an
afterthought. Armed with the content contained in this book,
security specialists can redirect the discussion of security
towards the terms and concepts that management understands. This
increases the likelihood of obtaining the funding and managerial
support that is needed to build and maintain airtight security
programs.
