Review:
This is a great book for practical advice and I'd recommend it to anyone who needs to get to set up and manage a long term approach to securing systems. It contains a lot of interesting tips and ideas, but only focusses on the management side of things. Really worth while for people who need management guidance but don't buy it if your looking for technical advice.

In the vast realm of Information Technology (IT), an ethically "wrong" decision can be the corporate equivalent of splitting the atom--a small, seemingly isolated event that causes a devastating impact on a grand scale. When applied to IT, the issue of ethics can no longer be relegated to the back of the employee manual.
