Bruce Schneier summed it up best years ago, "Cybersecurity is a process and not a product." Enterprise Cybersecurity is an in depth description of ALL the processes an IT Administrator, CISO and CTO need to understand. Donaldson, Siegel, Williams and Aslam have done an excellent job of outlining cybersecurity is an easy to follow and understand step-by-step process.

One of the most clearly written books I have ever read. In addition, the content is right on point. It covers the subject matter throughly and I find it quite educational. Highly recommend this book for new, or seasoned, cybersecurity professionals. Your will not regret it.

As a consultant (and for sales), this book is invaluable. It explains concepts in simple terms with excellent graphics. It subsequently dives into how to build and maintain the best cybersecurity defense based on real-life scenarios where there are resource contingencies (human, capital, other).The appendices provide in-depth details and references (NIST, ISO, others) and describes the items to be considered when writing a policy, operationalizing a cybersecurity program, assessment considerations and related formulas and graphics. These could be very helpful even for anyone who already has a program in place and wants to evaluate it. Cybersecurity is a dynamic and evolving environment and one can find in this book how to maintain an established program.As posted by another reviewer, you will find very quickly the need to bookmark often and you will want to always have the book handy. I got the kindle version which permits easy bookmarking and of course search capabilities. The book is an invaluable source of information for anyone who needs to convey the concept and propose an approach to achieve best-possible results.

This is a must have for anyone who wants to understand how cybersecurity programs are built. Scott and team take readers from framework adoption and policy creation to adoption of technical capabilities. Enterprise Cybersecurity is the ultimate desk reference.

Outstanding resource for anyone intrested in effective Cyber Security Operations! Their approach to explaining this complex and constantly evolving topic is the best I've seen. I recommend you make this required reading for everyone in your organization responsible for maintaining Information Security. In other words, "Everyone".
