How to Cheat at Managing Information Security

Author: Mark Osborn

This is the only book that covers all the topics that any budding security manager needs to know! This book is written for managers responsible for IT/Security departments from mall office environments up to enterprise networks. These individuals do not need to know about every last bit and byte, but they need to have a solid understanding of all major, IT security issues to effectively manage their departments.

This book is designed to cover both the basic concepts of security, non – technical principle and practices of security and provides basic information about the technical details of many of the products - real products, not just theory.

  • Design the organization chart of his new security organization

    The Photoshop CS Book for Digital Photographers

    Author: Scott Kelby

    Scott Kelby is one of those rare authors who not only knows his topic-Photoshop cs-backward and forward but also knows how to distill it into the need-to-know essentials that the rest of the world is interested in. In these pages, Scott cuts through the bull to show you how to make the transition from traditional to digital photography using the best image manipulation software available today: Photoshop cs. You'll find full-color, graphically rich project-based examples of every key step in the digital photography process-from experimenting with camera settings to capturing and manipulating images, and editing, outputting, and organizing them. What you won't find is a bunch of theory or a challenge to come up with your own settings. Instead, Scott tells you flat out which setting to use, when to use them, and why. Along the way you'll learn about color correction and digital body-sculpting, how and why the pros edit in 16-bit, and more.
