Children must learn several fundamental skills early in life to protect their safety. Before crossing the street, look both ways. Seatbelts must be worn at all times. Do not talk to strangers. Another item to add to the list is to be wary of hackers and cyber predators. Teachers and parents may teach students of all ages fundamental cybersecurity skills and encourage them to use digital hygiene daily. They can achieve it by including more online educational resources into their curricula and at the same time educating and updating themselves with cybersecurity skills. Children can be taught to automatically protect themselves against cyber threats, just as they do while crossing the street. Just ask yourself- Are we preparing our children for life in the digital age? Are we providing them with the required training and resources to deal with never-before-seen cyber threats? Is our educational system able to keep up with the rapid changes in our society, including technological advancements? The only problem with teaching Cybersecurity in schools and homes is that educators/parents may not be entirely updated on the subject. Or may not feel confident enough to teach it due to a lack of knowledge. That is why there is assistance for students of all age groups, educators and parents.

Cyber Security Is Here To StayDo you often wonder how cyber security applies to your everyday life, what's at risk, and how can you specifically lock down your devices and digital trails to ensure you are not "Hacked"?Do you own a business and are finally becoming aware of how dangerous the cyber threats are to your assets? Would you like to know how to quickly create a cyber security plan for your business, without all of the technical jargon?Are you interested in pursuing a career in cyber security? Did you know that the average starting ENTRY salary of a cyber security professional ranges from $65,000 to $80,000 and jumps to multiple figures in a few years, depending on how far you want to go?Here is an interesting statistic, you are probably already compromised. Yes, at some point, one of your digital devices or activities has been hacked and your information has been sold to the "underground market". If you knew how bad the threats really are online, you would never go online again or you would do everything possible to secure your networks and devices, especially at home....and we're not talking about the ads that suddenly pop up and follow you around everywhere because you were looking at sunglasses for sale on Google or Amazon, those are re-targeting ads and they are totally legal and legitimate...We're talking about very evil malware that hides deep in your device(s) watching everything you do and type, just as one example among many hundreds of threat vectors out there.Why is This Happening Now?Our society has become saturated with internet-connected devices and trackers everywhere. From home routers to your mobile phones, most people AND businesses are easily hacked if targeted. But it gets even deeper than this; technology has advanced now to where most hacks are automated by emerging A.I., by software. Global hackers have vast networks and computers set up to conduct non-stop scans, pings and probes for weaknesses in millions of IP addresses and network domains, such as businesses and residential home routers.Check your router log and you'll see it yourself. Now most devices have firewalls but still, that is what's called an persistent threat that is here to stay, it's growing and we all need to be aware of how to protect ourselves starting today.In this introductory book, we will cover verified steps and tactics on how to increase the level of Cyber security in an organization and as an individual. It sheds light on the potential weak points which are used as infiltration points and gives examples of these breaches. We will also talk about cybercrime in a technologically-dependent world ..(Think IoT)Cyber security has come a long way from the days that hacks could only be perpetrated by a handful of individuals, and they were mostly done on the larger firms or government databases. Now, everyone with a mobile device, home system, car infotainment, or any other computing device is a point of weakness for malware or concerted attacks from hackers, real or automated.We have adopted anti-viruses and several firewalls to help prevent these issues to the point we have become oblivious to the majority of the attacks. The assistance of malware blocking tools allows our computing devices to fight thousands of attacks per day. Interestingly, cybercrime is a very lucrative industry, as has been proven by the constant investment by criminals on public information. It would be wise to pay at least half as much attention to your security.What are you waiting for, scroll to the top and click the "Buy Now" button to get started instantly!

The Practical, Comprehensive Guide to Applying Cybersecurity Best Practices and Standards in Real Environments In Effective Cybersecurity, William Stallings introduces the technology, operational procedures, and management practices needed for successful cybersecurity. Stallings makes extensive use of standards and best practices documents that are often used to guide or mandate cybersecurity implementation. Going beyond these, he offers in-depth tutorials on the “how” of implementation, integrated into a unified framework and realistic plan of action. Each chapter contains a clear technical overview, as well as a detailed discussion of action items and appropriate policies. Stallings offers many pedagogical features designed to help readers master the material: clear learning objectives, keyword lists, review questions, and QR codes linking to relevant standards documents and web resources. Effective Cybersecurity aligns with the comprehensive Information Security Forum document “The Standard of Good Practice for Information Security,” extending ISF’s work with extensive insights from ISO, NIST, COBIT, other official standards and guidelines, and modern professional, academic, and industry literature. • Understand the cybersecurity discipline and the role of standards and best practices • Define security governance, assess risks, and manage strategy and tactics • Safeguard information and privacy, and ensure GDPR compliance • Harden systems across the system development life cycle (SDLC) • Protect servers, virtualized systems, and storage • Secure networks and electronic communications, from email to VoIP • Apply the most appropriate methods for user authentication • Mitigate security risks in supply chains and cloud environments This knowledge is indispensable to every cybersecurity professional. Stallings presents it systematically and coherently, making it practical and actionable.

"Information security has become an important and critical component of every organization. In his book, Professor Chatterjee explains the challenges that organizations experience to protect information assets. The book sheds light on different aspects of cybersecurity including a history and impact of the most recent security breaches, as well as the strategic and leadership components that help build strong cybersecurity programs. This book helps bridge the gap between academia and practice and provides important insights that may help professionals in every industry." Mauricio Angee, Chief Information Security Officer, GenesisCare USA, Fort Myers, Florida, USA "This book by Dave Chatterjee is by far the most comprehensive book on cybersecurity management. Cybersecurity is on top of the minds of board members, CEOs, and CIOs as they strive to protect their employees and intellectual property. This book is a must-read for CIOs and CISOs to build a robust cybersecurity program for their organizations." Vidhya Belapure, Chief Information Officer, Huber Engineered Materials & CP Kelco, Marietta, Georgia, USA Cybersecurity has traditionally been the purview of information technology professionals, who possess specialized knowledge and speak a language that few outside of their department can understand. In our current corporate landscape, however, cybersecurity awareness must be an organization-wide management competency in order to mitigate major threats to an organization’s well-being—and be prepared to act if the worst happens. With rapidly expanding attacks and evolving methods of attack, organizations are in a perpetual state of breach and have to deal with this existential threat head-on. Cybersecurity preparedness is a critical and distinctive competency, and this book is intended to help students and practitioners develop and enhance this capability, as individuals continue to be both the strongest and weakest links in a cyber defense system. In addition to providing the non-specialist with a jargon-free overview of cybersecurity threats, Dr. Chatterjee focuses most of the book on developing a practical and easy-to-comprehend management framework and success factors that will help leaders assess cybersecurity risks, address organizational weaknesses, and build a collaborative culture that is informed and responsive. Through brief case studies, literature review, and practical tools, he creates a manual for the student and professional alike to put into practice essential skills for any workplace.
