Summary

This book enables newcomers, business professionals as well as seasoned cybersecurity practitioners and marketers to understand and to explain the discipline to anyone. This book is not about technology and no technical knowledge or prior background is required to understand this book.

Cybersecurity involves people, policy, and technology. Yet most books and academic programs cover only technology. Hence the implementation of cybersecurity as a people powered perpetual innovation and productivity engine is not done. People think they can buy cybersecurity as a product when in fact the discipline is the modern practice of digital business strategy. People also equate cybersecurity with information security or security alone. However, security is a state, while cybersecurity is a process. Too many people equate cybersecurity with computer science when in fact cybersecurity is a business discipline.

Written and narrated by Dr. Mansur Hasib a globally acclaimed scholar, practitioner, and author with a Doctor of Science in cybersecurity and over ten years experience designing and running award-winning cybersecurity education programs on a global scale. The author also served as Chief Information Officer and implemented profitable digital transformations and cybersecurity strategy in healthcare, biotechnology, education, and energy for more than 30 years.

This book is widely acclaimed by practitioners and scholars alike as the definitive book on cybersecurity leadership and governance. Dr. Hasib is a sought after speaker and has won multiple global awards such as: 2020 Cybersecurity Champion of the Year; 2020 People's Choice Award in Cybersecurity; 2019 Best Cybersecurity Higher Education Program in the USA; 2019 Outstanding Global Cybersecurity Leadership; 2018 Best Cybersecurity Higher Education Program in the USA; 2018 Hall of Fame; 2017 People's Choice Award in Cybersecurity; 2017 Information Governance Expert of the Year; 2017 (ISC)2 Americas ISLA Award.

Excellent Informative Book

This is not a book to read or listen to once only. Anyone in leadership in organisations, whether private or public bodies, today would be well advised to read or listen to this book. In a world, whether leadership in cybersecurity is growing one will find this book a handy reference. Dr Mansur Hasib not only shares from his experience but also encourages everyone to realise they are leaders who have a responsibility for making a difference. I noted that Dr Hasib encourages every leader to appreciate diversity and inclusion throughout the whole cybersecurity operation of an organisation. His simplicity and willingness to help breakdown the different areas of cybersecurity have made it enjoyable for me to help my growth in cybersecurity. This is a book not just for CISOs but for the those who are beginning the journey of getting into this industry. It will help one understand the different areas that cybersecurity plays. Thank you Dr Hasib for being willing to help us become better leaders.

Framework for success in Cybersecurity

Dr. Hasib has written an excellent book outlining the growing field of cybersecurity and takes a new approach discussing the success factors within an organization.

As a student, I am constantly looking for material that is engaging and informative. Coming from a business up-bringing, taking a heavily scientific program has me question whether the individuals teaching the materials are fit for their jobs. It is inspiring to finally read a book that speaks to the average person while conveying idea's just as well, if not better (as I tend to retain more information if it is presented well).

This is an excellent read for any individual who wants to be in cybersecurity and wants to become a leader within the industry.

Very beneficial knowledge. Thank you.

There isn't one person who wouldn't benefit from the information this book provides. Even if not in an executive position, one could use this either as guidance for leadership in any role, or to help determine what a good fit would be for yourself in an organization. I most certainly will use this information moving forward as I begin my IT career.

One of the best books about cybersecurity!

If you work or aspire to work in the cybersecurity field, you need to read this book. You will not only understand the field at its core level, but also how all the different players in the company affect the security of the business. Overall, it explains in a great way why cybersecurity is all about people and we need to empower leaders of this field much more if we want to succeed. The book is included in the list of best books of all times for cybersecurity at meetcyber.net

Cybersecurity leadership

If you are starting out or interested in IT, the wealth of experience in this book is worth its weight in gold.

Organisational structure and culture, ethics, leadership, explained so clearly by Dr Hasib 😃.

I can say so much more but it is better that you read it.

A MUST for cybersecurity leaders

Dr. Hasib presented a thoughtful and practical approach towards leadership within cybersecurity but also touches upon the importance of general leadership. His approach is refreshing and coupled with his knowledge and experience, he is a great resource and subject matter expert. He also covers cybersecurity within healthcare and its increasing interoperability challenges that attribute towards a cost-effective mindset, but the importance of security and safety.

Thank you Dr. Hasib for sharing your wisdom and insight, as I have ignored those cues before, but I think it is time to act on them.

Not enough focus on cyber

Good to have author narrating to give appropriate emphasis on technical content. Not enough focus on cyber. Very generic leadership content supported largely by assertion. I would like to see more case studies and more explanation of why the advised approaches are appropriate. I don't doubt the credentials of the author, but for me to understand rather than memorise the content I need more detail.
