Consultant
Aside from information risk and security-focused consultants with an obvious interest in cybersecurity, IT/technology, business continuity, safety and many other consultants also benefit from a strong awareness of the threats, vulnerabilities, impacts and controls in this area. After all, information is the consultants' work product, as well as the raw material.
The book has value for:
Understanding this complex, dynamic, important and highly interrelated field.
Treating the hyperglossary as a consistent and definitive reference, using the appropriate terms, correctly.
Communicating effectively, professionally, competently, eloquently with clients - both in person and in writing.
Appreciating and elaborating on client interests and concerns - not just the superficial/obvious aspects but the mesh of potential contributory and related factors.
Exploring situations and assigments from multiple perspectives.
Referring clients and contacts to the book for guidance - a common resource.
Identifying opportunities for additional advice and guidance.
Protecting their own commercial and personal interests against information risks through security.
