Читать книгу Cyber Mayday and the Day After - Daniel Lohrmann - Страница 8

So why did we write this book?

First, we are passionate about cybersecurity. We love to share true stories and cybersecurity challenges and solutions in numerous ways, including our books, blogs, magazine articles, social media, global speeches, podcasts, and more.

Second, we believe that our unique backgrounds, experiences, and cultures offer a powerful combination of award-winning cybersecurity leadership experiences, partnerships, and stories. This book is intended for a global audience; in addition to a rich resource of insights brought in from around the world, Dan brings a U.S. perspective, while Shamane lives in Australia and works extensively throughout the Asia-Pacific region.

Third, this is a vital topic for the world at this time. The earlier quotes make that abundantly clear.

Fourth, other materials on this cyber topic tend to cover cyber incident response, cybersecurity emergency planning, cyber exercises, and related people/process/technology materials from one of two approaches. Some take an academic approach and offer checklists and detailed frameworks, such as walking the reader through the implementation of the five-function NIST Cybersecurity Framework: identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover. Other materials offer ad hoc stories and fun facts about statistics and costs associated with data breaches, ransomware, and a long list of other security incidents.

While we reference many of these works at the end of the book and point readers to helpful resources throughout, our goals are to bring cyber incident response and the associated planning, response, and recovery to life with true stories that offer compelling lessons and provide practical, actionable advice from leading global technology and security leaders and business executives who have been through the storm. We want to provide CxOs, directors, managers, technology professionals, and frontline business people with the tools they need to prepare for inevitable security incidents.

Bottom line, we offer powerful stories that motivate, along with cyber plans and free resources with practical steps that can be taken from small businesses to large enterprises in the public and private sectors. The goal: cyber resilience that will prepare your team and get you through most cybersecurity challenges you will likely face.
