Since 1993, the Information Security Management Handbook has served not only as an everyday reference for information security practitioners but also as an important document for conducting the intense review necessary to prepare for the Certified Information System Security Professional (CISSP) examination. Now completely revised and updated and in its fifth edition, the handbook maps the ten domains of the Information Security Common Body of Knowledge and provides a complete understanding of all the items in it. This is a must have book, both for preparing for the CISSP exam and as a comprehensive, up-to-date reference.
This Volume 5 is a blend of some of the most current articles from the previous edition along with new
articles that may not have been covered previously. It also includes articles on tried and true topics such as
policies, firewalls and Internet security, but with a differing focus or distinction based on the various authors’
experiences.
As always, this edition is a comprehensive tome that offers vast amounts of information protection and
security advice, from policy development to cryptographic fundamentals and everything between. Whether
the reader is an experienced and certified professional (CISSP), an IT executive, or a novice firewall administrator,
there is something worthwhile for all.
