Description

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 is this book for?

If you are involved in the process of implementing, planning, operating, or maintaining cybersecurity in an organization, then this security book is for you.

As a professional in the cybersecurity industry, I have quite the assortment of books and reference material that I constantly turn to for knowledge. This quickly became a favorite in my collection. The methodologies outlined in the book are instructive, intriguing, and helpful in understanding the techniques that modern-day security professionals should keep top of mind. With so many dense and boring cybersecurity reads, the conversational tone of the book really helps in digesting the information provided. If you're in search of a book that covers the concepts, standards, and frameworks that you MUST know in cybersecurity, look no further than this book.

There are so many cybersecurity books and manuals (as alluded to in this book by Moyle and Kelley) that one can read to advance their knowledge. They are, however, often dry and written for someone with either no experience whatsoever, or the expert who doesn't need any background or basic information.This book accomplishes writing to both the novice and the expert, and does so in an interesting, engaging way. Further, it addresses a significant problem in the cybersecurity industry today, this is, the need for thoughtful, careful planning, Having worked in the field for 15+ years, I see enterprise practitioners rushing to implement tools and processes just to be able to check a box. But this is exactly what leads to vulnerabilities.The authors, as promised in the title, lay out a practical approach to architecture based on planning, assessment, and review, from initial stages through execution. Bravo.

This book’s take on security architecture is the backstory needed for those working in audit, risk or compliance. Routinely, people in this space see an architecture already in place but don’t have the opportunity to see how it came to be. This book provides background that will help these professionals have a better understanding of the roadmap used to create the security architectures that they review.

The way this book is laid out, it puts together all the components to scope and build a secure architecture. By engineering the network architecture to be reliable, robust and secure, you save money, time, and avoid the regulatory nightmares (when a breach inevitably happens). I love how the authors go beyond the basic building blocks to also discuss soft issues, like finding a champion in your organization to help support the security mission, and talking the talk of business NOT cyber so that the leaders can work with your objectives. So many more nuggets in here. It has all the elements needed for secure architecture in ONE read. Very USEFUL reference guide.

I confess. I got this book as a referral from a friend and colleague – it was a dog-eared copy with quite a few underlined and highlights prior to my read. I always look for the highlights when I respect the colleague. I agree with @Marcos- “The methodologies outlined in the book are instructive, intriguing, and helpful in understanding the techniques that modern-day security professionals should keep top of mind.” This book did further my understanding of the standards in cybersecurity. NOT a long read at 400 pages, but the authors conversational tone allows for a good read. I did add a few highlights of my own to my colleague’s copy – but in a different color highlight. Good writing and great tone added to a quick read of 400 pages.
