Abstract:
Company network administrators are compelled today to aggressively pursue a robust network security regime. Network Security Policies and Procedures aims to give the reader a strong, multi-disciplinary understanding of how to pursue this goal. This professional volume introduces the technical issues surrounding security, as well as how security policies are formulated at the executive level and communicated throughout the organization. Network Security Policies and Procedures offers an unique mix of technical information and organizational communication concepts. Each chapter includes objectives, introduction, summary and review questions. Readers will gain a better understanding of how their colleagues on the other side of the fence view the company’s security, and will thus be better equipped to act in a way that forwards an organization's goals. Network Security Policies and Procedures is designed for practitioners and researchers in industry. This book is also suitable for upper under graduate and graduate-level students in computer science. .
