A great book that would do well as an augmentation to a book aligning with Security+. This reads well and the sections on Testing and Monitoring Business Continuity / Recovery Planning and Incident response offer some greater practical information that fills in the gaps in the security certification books. A great augmentation to the ISC2 Certifiedin Cybersecurity certification as well as Sec+ curriculum.

This book in my mind sits right in-between Security+ and CISSP in terms of the knowledge level it is best aligned with. It does a really good job covering major focus points of a true information security program like integrating continuous testing into the software development lifecycle, developing a SOC, cloud security considerations and much more. While each chapter could warrant it's own book in itself; the goal isn't to become a subject matter expert in any nuanced area but instead to understand the bigger picture of how it all fits together.
