This book is a bit of a scam. It's a self-published, on-demand printed book with no publisher, editor, or peer review. There are no chapters, just 3 sections plus an introduction. The introduction lifts low resolution graphics directly from the nist.gov csf website, and reads like the framework website was paraphrased. The remaining 95% of the book just lists every category, subcategory, and item directky from the framework with a brief explanation followed by listing all of the references directly copied from the framework itself. The last remaining sections are just a handful of pages covering profiles and implementation tiers with not much information.Basically, this book is nothing but a copy of the nist documentation with a very slight elaboration. Hence this book provides very little actual value. You are better off just reading the nist website itself. You will gain no real insight here. I am ashamed of myself for falling for buying this, and the author should be ashamed of himself for putting so little effort in to scam people out of their money.

NIST is essential for anyone in the cybersecurity field to understand and this book is a must for cybersecurity professionals. Very detailed and concise but simple to understand.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is one of the better books that I have seen for the step by step build of a NIST Framework. This is set up in the same process that I learned when I worked in I.T. so it is very easy to blend these practices with the design of the practices for my new business to protect it!.I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This book along with three others by the same author covers many (if not all) aspects of the realm of cyber security and jobs in this field. I got them for my son who is pursuing studies in this area and he LOVED it.

Bruce Brown is an experienced cybersecurity expert who has assembled a guide to help organizations of all types coordinate their cyber defense efforts using the NIST framework and CSF guidelines against a multitude of cyber risks. The subject matter is complicated, and the threats are ever-changing.To his credit, Brown has ‘dumbed down’ (my words) the technical explanations so that laymen, like me, have a chance of understanding this hugely important subject matter. He has succeeded by offering a broad overview that methodically discusses risk categories and their aligning security controls and responsibilities. For the right organization leaders, this book will de-code much of the mystery and esoteric nature of cybersecurity. I think this offering is an excellent touchstone, providing a common language and reference for those responsible for protecting digital assets. Along with its other benefits, this book will put business leaders on good footing to ask the penetrating questions that must be answered.

Always, love Bruce materials and content. This is no exception. Well thought out and highly recommended.

COMPLEX YET UNDERSTANDABLE. I only know a tiny bit about cybersecurity but have often been curious to learn more, which is why I bought this book. Although it is written for people with a high level of technical knowledge and experience in cybersecurity, the language and style of writing is so good, that I was able to gain a broad understanding of the topic. I would have like some speculative intel on the impact that web 3.0, cryptocurrency and VR will have on cybersecurity, but I guess the processes will be much the same as they are now. It's just the operating environment that will change. It's obviously a complex discipline grounded in robust processes that have to be applied consistently and methodically to be effective.

Takes you through each function, category, ID and provides reasonable examples of methods to achieve each.Fortunately, my company paid for this book on my behalf.
