Description - Cyber Threat! by MacDonnell Ulsch

Conquering cyber attacks requires a multi-sector, multi-modal
approach
Cyber Threat! How to Manage the Growing Risk of Cyber
Attacks is an in-depth examination of the very real cyber
security risks facing all facets of government and industry, and
the various factors that must align to maintain information
integrity. Written by one of the nation's most highly respected
cyber risk analysts, the book describes how businesses and
government agencies must protect their most valuable assets to
avoid potentially catastrophic consequences. Much more than just
cyber security, the necessary solutions require government and
industry to work cooperatively and intelligently. This resource
reveals the extent of the problem, and provides a plan to change
course and better manage and protect critical information.
Recent news surrounding cyber hacking operations show how
intellectual property theft is now a matter of national security,
as well as economic and commercial security. Consequences are
far-reaching, and can have enormous effects on national economies
and international relations. Aggressive cyber forces in China,
Russia, Eastern Europe and elsewhere, the rise of global organized
criminal networks, and inattention to vulnerabilities throughout
critical infrastructures converge to represent an abundantly clear
threat. Managing the threat and keeping information safe is now a
top priority for global businesses and government agencies.
Cyber Threat! breaks the issue down into real terms, and
proposes an approach to effective defense. Topics include:

The information at risk

The true extent of the threat

The potential consequences across sectors

The multifaceted approach to defense

The growing cyber threat is fundamentally changing the nation's
economic, diplomatic, military, and intelligence operations, and
will extend into future technological, scientific, and geopolitical
influence. The only effective solution will be expansive and
complex, encompassing every facet of government and industry.
Cyber Threat! details the situation at hand, and provides
the information that can help keep the nation safe.
