Government and companies have already invested hundreds of millions
of dollars in the convergence of physical and logical security
solutions, but there are no books on the topic.
This book begins with an overall explanation of information
security, physical security, and why approaching these two
different types of security in one way (called convergence) is so
critical in today s changing security landscape. It then details
enterprise security management as it relates to incident detection
and incident management. This is followed by detailed examples of
implementation, taking the reader through cases addressing various
physical security technologies such as: video surveillance, HVAC,
RFID, access controls, biometrics, and more.

*The author has over a decade of real-world security and management
expertise developed in some of the most sensitive and
mission-critical environments in the world

The book covers a decade of work with some of the largest
commercial and government agencies around the world in addressing
cyber security related to malicious insiders (trusted employees,
contractors, and partners). It explores organized crime, terrorist
threats, and hackers. It addresses the steps organizations must
take to address insider threats at a people, process, and
technology level.
Today's headlines are littered with news of identity thieves,
organized cyber criminals, corporate espionage, nation-state
threats, and terrorists. They represent the next wave of security
threats but still possess nowhere near the devastating potential of
the most insidious threat: the insider. This is not the bored
16-year-old hacker. We are talking about insiders like you and me,
trusted employees with access to information - consultants,
contractors, partners, visitors, vendors, and cleaning crews.
Anyone in an organization's building or networks that possesses
some level of trust.
* Full coverage of this hot topic for virtually every global 5000
organization, government agency, and individual interested in
security.
* Brian Contos is the Chief Security Officer for one of the most
well known, profitable and respected security software companies in
the U.S.-ArcSight.
