Risk analysis and the security survey

"Risk Analysis and the Security Survey, Second Edition provides an understanding of the principles of risk analysis to security students and professionals. It will help them produce more effective, results-oriented security surveys geared to the ever-changing needs of the organization." "The most fundamental philosophy of risk control, design, and implementation is to make the program as self-sufficient as possible in all matters pertaining to security. This includes the two-sided coin of risk control: (1) the protection of assets by identifying, analyzing, and prioritizing the risk, and (2) contingency and disaster recovery planning."--Jacket
