"Ilike that this book is not pretentious, it says what it wants to accomplish. Easily structured book and easy to read without too much jargon or if needed, it's nicely explained for the non-geek. It particularly addressed the dangers with PDAs and handheld computers (e.g., Chapter 4) that are loved by managers and used extensively. Throughout the book information is provided pointing out where the risks are with these gadgets and why the executive might represent the weakest link in the chain, thereby endanngering the security policy, compliance and reputation of the firm (e.g., losing his non-encrypted gadget with sooooo important info on it.... if it gets into the wrong hands, what then?)."
