Description

Security consultant Linda McCarthy shows how breaches occurred, what steps were taken to deal with them - and how well they worked, what steps could have been taken to prevent the crisis. In this book, you'll watch as real network administrators track hacker intrusions. You'll see firsthand how companies struggle with security problems caused by poor training, lack of management support, hidden agendas, and careless intranet development. You'll find checklists of preventive security measures you can take right now - and lists of tools that can help. Above all, you'll find insight into the all-too-human security flaws that make corporate intranets an easy target for hackers.
