Free The Hidden Corporation: A Data Management Security Novel
This book took me about 4 hours to read end-to-end. Although the title is not compelling, the book's story is well-told. I especially like the story lead-in, where they had a breach and someone was selling their secret data--someone they suspect inside.
You are going to be more knowledgeable when you read this book, and at the data level, which is where we have to move to protect ourselves today.
Summaries that concluded the chapters were helpful to reinforce key points and observations. These were also scattered within the chapters.
There's no spare fluff. It's written in a story line just like it would be in most any business, and it's compelling. It's a very different book from most on the market, and easy to understand. I wasn't sure who the target audience was--not security people I think! Perhaps managers, along with database and developer folks. It would offer a good textbook and view for students in MIS and security curriculums--it's not currently taught.
The book has a good story and you have to stay engaged to avoid missing details. I was hoping for more humor from Mr. Schlesinger than I saw in the book--that is his stock in trade. There are no easy mind breaks--you cannot skim or speed read, and still interpret and comprehend the story.
In the book's lead-in, it's unrealistic--the likelihood of two SACs--Special Agent in Charge--being assigned to a loss of $5000-$130,000. It's not very believable. It would not meet a materiality threshold to garner that kind of attention or support outside the company. The company would care most, because of what they stand to lose. But of course this all depends on whose reading the book if they'd know this or care.
Lots of data at once in this book--lots of facts flying.
