A Must Read!

This book provides a great overview of the issues surrounding the decision to outsource information security and also gets into specific issues and recommendations chapter by chapter. Outsourcing Information Security is written clearly and concisely; making it easy to read given the depth and sophistication of the subject matter covered.

The author is truly an expert and shares important anecdotes from his own experiences that all can learn from. This is not a sugar-coated diatribe about the bliss of outsourcing, nor is it a condemnation of companies that use these strategies. This work gets to the heart of the matter from a balanced and measured point of view; leaving the reader to decide for him or herself, if they should consider outsourcing information security.

I would highly recommend this book for anyone who is interested in this subject and is responsible for making key technology decisions on behalf of their organizations.
