...a timely read, and even more so, a trusted resource ... covers a great deal of ground very well and its tutorial and comprehensive checklist style pulls even the risk discussions together in an understandable and educational manner that reinforces awareness to the critical attributes found within this manmade domain. ... each individual chapter deals with an important and realistic aspect of cybersecurity together with the vulnerabilities and risks. Together, the chapters provide a first-rate overview of this exceedingly complex topic, a perspective that has equally horizontal as well as vertical implications, and will keep the reader cognizant of the interrelationships among the disparate disciplines making up cyberspace.

Dr. Kostopoulos' book was a wonderful read on Cybersecurity and it should be on the bookshelf of EVERY current or aspiring security professional. There is such a vast amount of information available in the text, everything from wireless security and secure information systems to the soft science considerations of creating a culture of security. Material that is not typically included in other cybersecurity texts, such as the guidelines for development as a CIO, was included and was very insightful. The material is presented in a very easily understood manner, and is appropriate even for a non-technical reader. The author has done a wonderful job of breaking down technical concepts that could lead to organizational vulnerabilities and explains them in an easy to understand manner. I found it helpful that there were exercises included to reinforce knowledge. This is a book that could not have been published at a more critical time. I will certainly be keeping this book right beside my desk for future use and will be recommending it to everyone in my professional circle.
