I noticed a common theme among many authors in the preface of this book. I appreciate how the author shares the level of support he received from family, friends and stakeholders when writing the book.As far as the content, I liked how the author comprehensively explained what Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) entails and how it flows from upper management to the employees of an organization through its standards and policies.For example, I learned that Governance is guidance from the stakeholders. This could be a board of directors or senior leadership in the form of policies and standards which translate to processes and practices for employees to follow. This strategy optimizes risk and establishes compliance with internal and external compliance obligations.Knowing how to implement this strategy successfully and many other strategies covered in the CRISC certification is what this book is all about!

I recently received a copy of Packt Publishing's ISACA Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control book by Shobhit M. If you are preparing for this exam from ISACA or are in a role that relates to understanding risk analysis and IT governance. Shobhit does an excellent job of explaining risk handling and the various frameworks for handling governance and compliance. I have been considering the ISACA CRISC certification and this book will assist in my preparation.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access.
