Summary
Government and companies have already invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the convergence of physical and logical security solutions, but there are no books on the topic. This book begins with an overall explanation of information security, physical security, and why approaching these two different types of security in one way (called convergence) is so critical in todays changing security landscape. It then details enterprise security management as it relates to incident detection and incident management. This is followed by detailed examples of implementation, taking the reader through cases addressing various physical security technologies such as: video surveillance, HVAC, RFID, access controls, biometrics, and more. *This topic is picking up momentum every day with every new computer exploit, announcement of a malicious insider, or issues related to terrorists, organized crime, and nation-state threats *The author has over a decade of real-world security and management expertise developed in some of the most sensitive and mission-critical environments in the world *Enterprise Security Management (ESM) is deployed in tens of thousands of organizations worldwide.

Summary
This is the first of two books serving as an expanded and up-dated version of Windows Server 2003 Security Infrastructures for Windows 2003 Server R2 and SP1 & SP2. The authors choose to encompass this material within two books in order to illustrate the intricacies of the different paths used to secure MS Windows server networks. Since its release in 2003 the Microsoft Exchange server has had two important updates, SP1 and SP2. SP1, allows users to increase their security, reliability and simplify the administration of the program. Within SP1, Microsoft has implemented R2 which improves identity and access management across security-related boundaries. R2 also improves branch office server management and increases the efficiency of storage setup and management. The second update, SP2 minimizes spam, pop-ups and unwanted downloads. These two updated have added an enormous amount of programming security to the server software. * Covers all SP1 and SP2 updates * Details strategies for patch management * Provides key techniques to maintain security application upgrades and updates.

Summary
In todays fast paced, infocentric environment, professionals increasingly rely on networked information technology to do business. Unfortunately, with the advent of such technology came new and complex problems that continue to threaten the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of our electronic information. It is therefore absolutely imperative to take measures to protect and defend information systems by ensuring their security and non-repudiation. Information Assurance skillfully addresses this issue by detailing the sufficient capacity networked systems need to operate while under attack, and itemizing failsafe design features such as alarms, restoration protocols, and management configurations to detect problems and automatically diagnose and respond. Moreover, this volume is unique in providing comprehensive coverage of both state-of-the-art survivability and security techniques, and the manner in which these two components interact to build robust Information Assurance (IA). KEY FEATURES * The first and (so far) only book to combine coverage of both security AND survivability in a networked information technology setting * Leading industry and academic researchers provide state-of-the-art survivability and security techniques and explain how these components interact in providing information assurance * Additional focus on security and survivability issues in wireless networks.

Summary
This book contains some of the most up-to-date information available anywhere on a wide variety of topics related to Techno Security. As you read the book, you will notice that the authors took the approach of identifying some of the risks, threats, and vulnerabilities and then discussing the countermeasures to address them. Some of the topics and thoughts discussed here are as new as tomorrows headlines, whereas others have been around for decades without being properly addressed. I hope you enjoy this book as much as we have enjoyed working with the various authors and friends during its development. Donald Withers, CEO and Cofounder of TheTrainingCo. Jack Wiles, on Social Engineering offers up a potpourri of tips, tricks, vulnerabilities, and lessons learned from 30-plus years of experience in the worlds of both physical and technical security. Russ Rogers on the Basics of Penetration Testing illustrates the standard methodology for penetration testing: information gathering, network enumeration, vulnerability identification, vulnerability exploitation, privilege escalation, expansion of reach, future access, and information compromise. Johnny Long on No Tech Hacking shows how to hack without touching a computer using tailgating, lock bumping, shoulder surfing, and dumpster diving. Phil Drake on Personal, Workforce, and Family Preparedness covers the basics of creating a plan for you and your family, identifying and obtaining the supplies you will need in an emergency. Kevin OShea on Seizure of Digital Information discusses collecting hardware and information from the scene. Amber Schroader on Cell Phone Forensics writes on new methods and guidelines for digital forensics. Dennis OBrien on RFID: An Introduction, Security Issues, and Concerns discusses how this well-intended technology has been eroded and used for fringe implementations. Ron Green on Open Source Intelligence details how a good Open Source Intelligence program can help you create leverage in negotiations, enable smart decisions regarding the selection of goods and services, and help avoid pitfalls and hazards. Raymond Blackwood on Wireless Awareness: Increasing the Sophistication of Wireless Users maintains it is the technologists responsibility to educate, communicate, and support users despite their lack of interest in understanding how it works. Greg Kipper on What is Steganography? provides a solid understanding of the basics of steganography, what it can and cant do, and arms you with the information you need to set your career path. Eric Cole on Insider Threat discusses why the insider threat is worse than the external threat and the effects of insider threats on a company. *Internationally known experts in information security share their wisdom *Free pass to Techno Security Conference for everyone who purchases a book$1,200 value *2-HOUR DVD with cutting edge information on the future of information security.
