Overview of this book

Cybercriminals are incessantly coming up with new ways to compromise online systems and wreak havoc, creating an ever-growing need for cybersecurity practitioners in every organization across the globe who understand international security standards, such as the ISO27k family of standards. If you’re looking to ensure that your company's data conforms to these standards, Cybersecurity and Privacy Law Handbook has got you covered. It'll not only equip you with the rudiments of cybersecurity but also guide you through privacy laws and explain how you can ensure compliance to protect yourself from cybercrime and avoid the hefty fines imposed for non-compliance with standards. Assuming that you're new to the field, this book starts by introducing cybersecurity frameworks and concepts used throughout the chapters. You'll understand why privacy is paramount and how to find the security gaps in your company's systems. There's a practical element to the book as well—you'll prepare policies and procedures to prevent your company from being breached. You’ll complete your learning journey by exploring cloud security and the complex nature of privacy laws in the US. By the end of this cybersecurity book, you'll be well-placed to protect your company's data and comply with the relevant standards.

ISO27001 – Definitions and Security Concepts

My aim in writing this book is providing you a comfortable way to understand and enhance the cybersecurity and privacy within your entity. Of course this book is not targeted at seasoned experts in ISO27001 implementation; moreover, when I planned it, my targets were managers that know almost nothing about cybersecurity and privacy but want to improve company security, even using third-party consulting (and therefore wanting to know whether the external service is wasting internal budget), or novices that, for some reason, have to deal with IT security in a smoooth way.

It’s a long trip, although I will try my best to help you digest an enormous amount of information in a short, agile book. I hope you find it interesting and forgive those mistakes that, unfortunately, will appear no matter how many corrections I make.

Since it’s a long trip, I suggest you prepare by putting on a pair of comfortable slippers and making a huge cup of coffee (or tea, as you wish), and sit down and relax.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • The 27k family of standards
  • Confidentiality, integrity, and availability
  • Information security concepts and definitions
  • Governance, policies, and incident management
  • Differences of NIST
