Overview

Cyberthreats are among the most critical issues facing the world today. Cybersecurity Management draws on case studies to analyze cybercrime at the macro level, and evaluates the strategic and organizational issues connected to cybersecurity. Cross-disciplinary in its focus, orientation, and scope, this book looks at emerging communication technologies that are currently under development to tackle emerging threats to data privacy. Cybersecurity Management provides insights into the nature and extent of cyberthreats to organizations and consumers, and how such threats evolve with new technological advances and are affected by cultural, organizational, and macro‐environmental factors. Cybersecurity Management articulates the effects of new and evolving information, communication technologies, and systems on cybersecurity and privacy issues. As the COVID-19 pandemic has revealed, we are all dependent on the Internet as a source for not only information but also person-to-person connection, thus our chances of encountering cyberthreats is higher than ever. Cybersecurity Management aims to increase the awareness of and preparedness to handle such threats among policy-makers, planners, and the public.

Reviews

"""This volume can be an excellent textbook for an MBA or cybersecurity course because each chapter contains a summary, a basic concepts vignette, definitions, discussion questions, and a relevant case study...In conclusion, this book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the global impacts of cybersecurity."" -- Robert Vinaja, Texas A&M University * <em>Journal of Global Information Technology Management</em> *"

Cybersecurity Management presents a framework that delineates the drivers and outcomes of cybersecurity strategy by creating cyberthreat classifications, identifying limitations of cybersecurity resources, and articulating processes that strengthen organizational cybersecurity posture. The book's pedagogical case studies and interactive exercises engage students in the learning process and will significantly enhance the learning experience for students. - John Guo, James Madison University In today's environment consumed by never-ending cybersecurity threats, Cybersecurity Management is a 'must-read.' It's an excellent introduction to cybersecurity and data privacy. Business and management students, as well as other business professionals (who are trying to mitigate risks in their enterprises), will gain a clear overview of the global stakes associated with domestic and nation-state cybercrime. It is easy to read, comprehensive, well documented, and well written. - Jeffrey Voas, Editor-in-Chief, IEEE Computer magazine The breadth of topics covered in Cybersecurity Management is certainly impressive, ranging from economics and geopolitics to smart cities. I appreciate the chapter on cybersecurity and privacy, along with the book's pedagogical resources, including short cases at the end of each chapter and the NIST cybersecurity framework discussion. - Scott J. Shackelford, Indiana University
