Managing Security in Outsourced and Off shored Environments: How to Safeguard Intellectual Assets in a Virtual Business World

摘要

There are many good things about BSI "How To" handbooks, in that they are well designed and structured, written with clarity and precision and short, but they have a tendency to be a little dry. This volume written by David Lacey, who is extremely knowledgeable about information technology (IT) and information security, fits that picture exactly. The 11 sections take the reader from a consideration of why one might consider outsourcing some IT-related activities, and the implications that might have for information security, through a series of logical steps up to the tricky issues surrounding termination of such arrangements and clean exit strategies.
