The Secured Enterprise: Protecting Your Information Assets

Rating:
Summary: A bit outdated now, but concepts remain the same
Review: Much has changed since this book was first released a few years ago, but Proctor's writing still should be acknowledged. Many of the concepts expressed and explained in this book are still valid today, as is some of the technology as well. The sections on firewalls are especially worth noting, and the guidelines for developing policies remain equally important today.
