The Practical, Comprehensive Guide to Applying Cybersecurity Best
Practices and Standards in Real Environments In Effective
Cybersecurity, William Stallings introduces the technology,
operational procedures, and management practices needed for successful
cybersecurity. Stallings makes extensive use of standards and best
practices documents that are often used to guide or mandate
cybersecurity implementation. Going beyond these, he offers in-depth
tutorials on the “how” of implementation, integrated into a
unified framework and realistic plan of action. Each chapter contains
a clear technical overview, as well as a detailed discussion of action
items and appropriate policies. Stallings offers many pedagogical
features designed to help readers master the material: clear learning
objectives, keyword lists, review questions, and QR codes linking to
relevant standards documents and web resources. Effective
Cybersecurity aligns with the comprehensive Information Security Forum
document “The Standard of Good Practice for Information Security,”
extending ISF’s work with extensive insights from ISO, NIST, COBIT,
other official standards and guidelines, and modern professional,
academic, and industry literature. • Understand the cybersecurity
discipline and the role of standards and best practices • Define
security governance, assess risks, and manage strategy and tactics •
Safeguard information and privacy, and ensure GDPR compliance •
Harden systems across the system development life cycle (SDLC) •
Protect servers, virtualized systems, and storage • Secure networks
and electronic communications, from email to VoIP • Apply the most
appropriate methods for user authentication • Mitigate security
risks in supply chains and cloud environments This knowledge is
indispensable to every cybersecurity professional. Stallings presents
it systematically and coherently, making it practical and actionable.
