Reviews for "Mapping Security"

"Tom Patterson captures a compelling and practical
 view of security in a multinational environment.
Your CSO needs to read this book!"

Dr. Vint Cerf , VP Technology Strategy, MCI, Founder of Internet Protocol (IP)

"As companies of all sizes go global in their search for profit and growth, they will need to understand how to use security as a tool for success in different markets, and Mapping Security shows them how."

Dr. Craig Fields, Former. Director, Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) – U.S. Government

“Security is not a destination, it’s a journey… I urge you to read this book.”

From the Forward,
by Howard A. Schmidt
CSO of eBay, Former CSO of Microsoft

"Whether consumer or global giant, we all need to be spending a greater share of our budgets on security. Mapping Security offers business oriented and in-depth thinking on how and why to build security into the fabric of the organization. After reading Tom Patterson's book, you will want to make changes with a sense of urgency."

John R Patrick
President, Attitude LLC
and former VP - Internet Technology at IBM Corporation

"The power of the Internet is that it's a global network, seamlessly crossing borders. But it also brings security risks that can cross borders just as easily. Patterson … uses real-world examples and stories, many from his own career, and offers clear, action-oriented descriptions of the different threats and how to deal with them. This book avoids security jargon and speaks directly to business people around the globe."
