racking Invisible Walls Between You and Cybersecurity

"The Art of Email Security" presents hard evidence of email committing high treason against your privacy, explains what makes you a possible target in the eyes of the attacker and shows what you can learn from online criminals to become more secure.

Chief information security officers that have worked for companies like Amazon, IBM, HBO, Gartner, UNICEF, DHL, Verizon, Capital One and many more were kind enough to share their knowledge and offer their unique insights, fueled by years of experience, and feedback-from-the-ground on email matters worth talking about.

"If you are worried that a cybersecurity book will be dry and technical, this one is a pleasant change.
The book is a quick read, full of informative anecdotes mixed with cultural references to keep the reader interested. It is really geared towards the individual, not just a corporate security professional, and is written in a very conversational and humorous way. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to understand current social engineering and cyber fraud schemes." Rick Doten, Cyber and Information Security at Crumpton Group LLC

"Lots of teases, plain English, captivating storytelling. Appreciate how honest and straight-forward the authors are, they don't hold back and have strong opinions. This book raises a lot of important questions, and of course, answers a few too. This is something I would give to friends who don't know a lick about cyber hygiene or how dangerous email is. It left me wanting more, and I expect authors to continue doing their good work." Johan Nordstrom, Founder & CEO of Nordstrom Consulting
