communications systems. Since 9/11 it has become increasingly important for companies to implement a
plan for disaster recovery. This comprehensive book addresses the operational and day-to-day security
management requirements of business stability and disaster recovery planning specifically tailored for the needs and requirements of an Information Security Officer.
This book has been written by battle tested security consultants who have based all the material, processes and problem- solving on real-world planning and recovery events in enterprise environments world wide.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CONTENT:
There is a significant need for a comprehensive book addressing the operational and day-to-day security management requirements. IM, used in enterprise networks can easily be reconfigured and allow for potentially nonstop exposure; they require the level of security be scrutinized carefully. This includes inherent security flaws in various network architectures that result in additional risks to otherwise secure converged networks. A few books cover components of the architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security, but none of them address IM issues in a manner that is useful for the day-to-day operations and management of enterprise networks. IM Security is intended to bridge this gap.

UNIQUE FEATURE/RATIONALE
There are no current books that cover components of the architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security. No book we know of addresses IM security in a manner useful for day-to-day operations and management of IM-capable networks in today s corporate environment.
* Up-to-date coverage of architecture, design, theory, issues, challenges, and recommended policies for IM security.
* Addresses IM security for day-to-day operations and management of IM-capable networks in today s corporate environment"

Voice Over Internet Protocol Security has been designed to help the reader fully understand, prepare for and mediate current security and QoS risks in today s complex and ever changing converged network environment and it will help you secure your VoIP network whether you are at the planning, implementation, or post-implementation phase of your VoIP infrastructure.
* This book will teach you how to plan for and implement VoIP security solutions in converged network infrastructures. Whether you have picked up this book out of curiosity or professional interest . . . it is not too late to read this book and gain a deep understanding of what needs to be done in a VoIP implementation.
* In the rush to be first to market or to implement the latest and greatest technology, many current implementations of VoIP infrastructures, both large and small, have been implemented with minimal thought to QoS and almost no thought to security and interoperability.
