What makes this book special is that goes topic by topic and presents the three authors’ different takes in their own separate essays. Part of what makes the role of CISO interesting is that there is no one approach or solution. The CISO Desk Reference Guide helps fill a critical gap in the ever-evolving information security common body of knowledge. I would say this is essential reading for both aspiring and incumbent Chief Information Security Officers. The unique multi-author approach of the CISO Desk Reference Guide has produced a wealth of insight into the complex and challenging role of Chief Information Security Officer, a role that increasingly anchors organizational risk management in all things cyber and digital.From the excellent discussion of the evolving CISO role and how best to embed it in the organization, to fundamentals like data classification and controls, to advice on tools and techniques, the CISO Desk Reference Guide delivers multiple perspectives on the foundations of organizational cybersecurity. The authors of the CISO Desk Reference Guide grasp that reality and use their many years of experience to provide a ton of practical advice about how to function effectively in this role. The Chief Information Security Officer has emerged as a key role in forward-thinking organizations that are keenly aware of the existential threat that cyber risks now pose.
