Information Security Auditor: Careers in information security (BCS Guides to IT Roles)

Description

Review 'A refreshingly good book - easy to read with excellent guidance for both budding auditors and auditees. Wendy's outline of a model Information Security Auditor outlines both the technical and personal skills required to succeed and it is her attention to the personal skill sets that is unique in this book.' --Vernon Poole, CISM, CGEIT & CRISC - Head of Business Consultancy, Sapphire About the Author Wendy is a senior security consultant. She is also in the final phase of her PhD, investigating both the behavioural risks of working on the move and the discrepancy between the intention to work securely and day-to-day working practice. Most of her consultancy work is focused on working with organisations to devise policy and procedures that are both compliant with external rules and operationally effective. This can be an interesting balancing act for which her first degree in psychology is useful.
