The world of information systems security is constantly changing. You need to continually grow your skills and keep up with the latest changes in the ways that businesses and organizations use the Internet and information technologies, as well as how the threat actors continually evolve to find new and different ways to exploit our systems against us. As a digital citizen of the 21st century, staying current—staying on the cutting edge of change, if not sometimes on the bleeding edge of it—is part of how you meet your due care and due diligence responsibilities to your clients, to your employers, and to the larger society around you. As a recognized member of that profession, the world expects you to stay sharp, stay focused, and stay informed.

That journey begins with this book, which provides you with a tangible foundation for your learning, exploration, and discovery. As a resource, this book provides the following strengths:

 It provides context. The domain-based structure maps concepts, ideas, problems, and solutions into a comfortable, straightforward framework that should make it easier to find what you need when you need it and find it positioned in a proper context. This book grounds you in the fundamental concepts, principles, design standards, and practices that are an invaluable resource.

 It extends your memory, as all reference works can do, as it shows you best practices in action, focused on the essentials and, again, in context.

 It provides clarity that can help you quickly orient to an issue or situation, while establishing links in your mind's eye to other related or important information.
