Practical Cybersecurity Architecture

By: Ed Moyle, Diana Kelley

Overview of this book

Cybersecurity architects work with others to develop a comprehensive understanding of the business' requirements. They work with stakeholders to plan designs that are implementable, goal-based, and in keeping with the governance strategy of the organization. With this book, you'll explore the fundamentals of cybersecurity architecture: addressing and mitigating risks, designing secure solutions, and communicating with others about security designs. The book outlines strategies that will help you work with execution teams to make your vision a concrete reality, along with covering ways to keep designs relevant over time through ongoing monitoring, maintenance, and continuous improvement. As you progress, you'll also learn about recognized frameworks for building robust designs as well as strategies that you can adopt to create your own designs. By the end of this book, you will have the skills you need to be able to architect solutions with robust security components for your organization, whether they are infrastructure solutions, application solutions, or others.

Who this book is for

This book is primarily for cybersecurity practitioners getting started with cybersecurity architecture or those already following a systematic architecture process who would like to build their skills. For the novice, we walk through the fundamental skills and techniques used in the architecture process and, for those with some experience already, we supplement our viewpoint with that of other architecture specialists currently in the field to help them think about challenges in a new way or adapt strategies that have been successful for others into their own toolkit.
