He served 22 years in the RAF Police, covering a number of specialist areas (physical security, aviation security, information security management, IT security management, cyber security management, security investigations, intelligence operations, incident response and disaster recovery), before successfully transitioning his skills to corporate environments (financial services, banking, retail, manufacturing, ecommerce, marketing, etc.) to help businesses enhance their cyber/InfoSec defensive measures working with various industry security standards.
This book shows you how military counter-intelligence principles and objectives are applied. It provides you with valuable advice and guidance to help your business understand threat vectors and the measures needed to reduce the risks and impacts to your organization. You will know how business-critical assets are compromised: cyberattack, data breach, system outage, pandemic, natural disaster, and many more.
