Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?

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?

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.

How will I know when new chapters are ready?

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

The book is an invaluable resource for Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) and other cybersecurity professionals. Authored by a seasoned expert in the field, this book offers a comprehensive blueprint for developing and maintaining a robust cybersecurity program.The guide delves into the important components of a modern security program, starting with the fundamentals of governance and risk management, and extends to other areas of cybersecurity - access rights and controls, data loss prevention, mobile security, and what is particularly noteworthy, it offers practical advice in each area.What sets this book apart is its pragmatic approach. The author uses clear language to break down complex concepts, making them accessible to both seasoned professionals and those new to the role of CISO. Each chapter includes checklists, frameworks, and best practices that can be directly applied to real-world scenarios.

I recently had a look inside Debra Baker, CISSP CCSP A CISO Guide to Cyber Resilience from Packt Publishing. Debra has broken down the role of the CISO into easy to understand and follow areas. She has included case studies that step you through an attack and breaks down the anatomy of the why and the how to recover. This book takes you on a journey through all areas of technology and building cyber resilience through defense in depth strategies. Debra also provides an excellent level of insight into the impact of AI in the final chapter. This book should be on the shelf of any executive that is serious about building a risk aware and cyber resilient organization. The level of detail along with the simplicity of explanation makes this a must have for anyone in IT or cybersecurity.
