The Secure CEO: How to Protect Your Computer Systems, Your Company, and Your Job

Viruses ... hackers ... malware ... identity theft ... IT security breaches. It's enough to make your head spin. As the company's CEO, owner, or key executive, you may think your network and company information are safe from prying eyes, but are they really? Maybe your network is running illegal programs (installed by criminals in other countries and without your knowledge) because you have fast servers and weak protection. Or perhaps your IT staff is overworked and over promising on results, all because they're under-trained or so busy fire-fighting that they can't possibly keep up with IT security issues. If you don't wear a pocket protector or horn-rimmed glasses, and even if you have limited understanding of how business technologies work, this book is for you. Now you can take control of your company's IT issues and rest assured that you really are protected.
