About this book

This book examines dual perspectives of enterprise security, compliance and business continuity, and offers a pathway to their convergence. Irrespective of their sizes, companies are forced to be complaint to various security standards, to maintain their good standings with government agencies as well as clients. There is enormous overlap and contradictions across the standards and one size does not fit all. The book will provide a comparative discussion on popular standards and suggest the suitability and requirements for various segments in industry and government. Further, the book will highlight widely existent "compliance paralysis" and analyze its etiology. While compliance is necessary, the big question is whether it is sufficient to ensure business continuity, often the answer is no. Finally, the book will delineate a 7 step process to achieve both compliance and business continuity as repeatable enterprise characteristics.
