Why this book?Most have neither considered, nor know how "cyber secure" they are. For the majority who are not information technology (IT) professionals, the idea of delving into the technical details of secure computing can create apprehension and confusion. Some people think that if their email system works, and if their documents are accessible, then why bother making any security improvements to their system, which might create complications or cost time and money. Some would prefer not to know the cybercrime risks they are facing, or just haven't thought about it. Cybersecurity is more, though; it is also about protecting data from risks other than cybercrime, such as unanticipated IT issues, hard-drive crashes, house fires, and other incidents. Beyond security, this book will also provide information to use computers and data more efficiently.No matter an individual's level of comfort or experience with computers, this book will help recognize when electronic "doors" are open to cybercriminals, and aid in fully appreciating why certain security steps need to be taken. Since cybercriminals are always attacking, trying to steal data or make data unusable, Cybersecurity for the Home and Office: The Lawyer's Guide to Taking Charge of Your Own Information Security will make it easier to understand these risks so a decision can be made as to where to set the "cybersecurity dial" in home and office. How much risk feels comfortable? How sensitive or confidential is your data? Are you safeguarding someone else's data and confidential information? What is risked, professionally and personally, if data is ever stolen or compromised? Setting the dial too low, may allow for over exposure to threats, but if the dial is too high, frustration may set in with the inconveniences of the security measures themselves. appendices 1 - 4 offer some assessments and materials to start your thought process about your cybersecurity posture and awareness. Appendices 1 and 2 have short quizzes to assess your current security, awareness, threats, and how home and work cybersecurity are related. Appendix 3 discusses the concept of the cybersecurity dial, where it is set now, and where it needs to be. Appendix 4 covers some common cybersecurity myths.Cybersecurity is not "one-size-fits-all." It needs to be what works for each individual. It's how to decide to evaluate and manage risks. With this book, you can gradually increase your security posture as you learn, by making incremental changes and learning to live with them. For the price of this book, you will learn how to improve your cybersecurity by yourself, without paying anyone else, as this book does not recommend any costly services or products. The time invested now can save from having an expensive disaster later and could make your computing experience much more efficient. By first fixing the cybersecurity at home and with personal devices, you will then be able to translate that knowledge and experience to your workplace.Waiting for the law and other standards to evolve is not the right move, as they will always lag behind the pace of technology advancements. The basic principles and methods to secure yourself are available now to learn and apply them yourself. Technology will continue to change rapidly, but if the basic principles are understood, then sound, ongoing choices to can be implemented and utilized.You need not become a technology expert; however, you should learn about the serious threats faced, the potential consequences, and the steps that can be taken to mitigate these risks. Technology-related threats and appropriate countermeasures are similar to things you already do in your "brick and...

In today’s litigious business world, cyber-related matters could land you in court. As a computer security professional, you are protecting your data, but are you protecting your company? While you know industry standards and regulations, you may not be a legal expert. Fortunately, in a few hours of reading, rather than months of classroom study, Tari Schreider’s The Manager’s Guide to Cybersecurity Law: Essentials for Today’s Business, lets you integrate legal issues into your security program. Tari Schreider, a board-certified information security practitioner with a criminal justice administration background, has written a much-needed book that bridges the gap between cybersecurity programs and cybersecurity law. He says, “My nearly 40 years in the fields of cybersecurity, risk management, and disaster recovery have taught me some immutable truths. One of these truths is that failure to consider the law when developing a cybersecurity program results in a protective façade or false sense of security.” In a friendly style, offering real-world business examples from his own experience supported by a wealth of court cases, Schreider covers the range of practical information you will need as you explore – and prepare to apply – cybersecurity law. His practical, easy-to-understand explanations help you to: Understand your legal duty to act reasonably and responsibly to protect assets and information. Identify which cybersecurity laws have the potential to impact your cybersecurity program. Upgrade cybersecurity policies to comply with state, federal, and regulatory statutes. Communicate effectively about cybersecurity law with corporate legal department and counsel. Understand the implications of emerging legislation for your cybersecurity program. Know how to avoid losing a cybersecurity court case on procedure – and develop strategies to handle a dispute out of court. Develop an international view of cybersecurity and data privacy – and international legal frameworks. Schreider takes you beyond security standards and regulatory controls to ensure that your current or future cybersecurity program complies with all laws and legal jurisdictions. Hundreds of citations and references allow you to dig deeper as you explore specific topics relevant to your organization or your studies. This book needs to be required reading before your next discussion with your corporate legal department.

Though it takes years of training to become a cybersecurity professional, anyone can take prudent steps to make themselves and their company more secure. In just nine chapters, Bring Your Own Cyber teaches you the basics. There are three fundamental rules followed throughout this book.First, no jargon. Bring Your Own Cyber uses plain language to tell you how to become more secure. Technical terms are only used because you hear it talked about and you need to know what it is, and then it is defined in plain language so you know what it means to you.Second, honesty about the day-to-day work you need to do to be secure. It's not rocket science, but it does take discipline. That makes sense, right? If it was easy to be cyber secure by buying a product or a service, we'd all be secure by now. Third, every chapter will come with prudent steps you can take right away to be more secure. Bring Your Own Cyber tells you what you have to do (the basics) and then gives you some more advanced advice (intermediate steps and pro steps) so you can take it to the next level. Bring Your Own Cyber does not tell you to go do something and then not tell you how.

"No one is immune to a cybersecurity incident. Every industry and business sector-including the legal profession-is a target for hackers and cyber criminals. As early as 2009, the FBI flagged the legal industry as a group that was vulnerable to cyber attacks, issuing an advisory that hackers were increasingly targeting law firms." About this Book As cybersecurity attacks continue to rise, the legal sector has been identified as one of the primary targets of cyber criminals. While studies show cybersecurity is considered a significant threat, survey respondents have indicated their companies are not taking proper measures to combat these threats. This book serves as a guide offering steps all law firms should take to protect their networks and data against cyber attacks. Reviews "Daniel Garrie brilliantly deploys his dual expertise in cybersecurity and the law in a concise and user-friendly resource for law firms. His ability to distill complicated technical concepts into easy-to-understand prose for those who are not known for being technically minded makes this a pleasure to read. I expect to see this book on law firm bookshelves for years to come." -Peter Halprin, Policyholder Insurance Attorney and Arbitration Counsel, Pasich LLP, Adjunct Professor of Law, Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law "For more than a decade, law firms have thought of cybersecurity as something their clients should do. Daniel Garrie, a true expert in the field who has helped hundreds of businesses with their cyber security, convincingly illustrates why the legal profession should be equally concerned about their own cyber security. Garrie then lays out the ten best cyber security practices that can be applied by every law firm. This book is a must read by every partner at a law firm and by every business that does business with them." -Eric Talbot Jensen, Professor of Law, Brigham Young University School of Law About the Author Daniel Garrie is an internationally recognized cybersecurity, cyber-warfare, electronic discovery, privacy, and forensic expert leading Law and Forensics, the fourth company he co-founded.
