Other student
Students of topics with a related or peripheral interest in cybersecurity benefit from a sound appreciation of the core concepts and key terms. Those studying IT/technology, systems engineering, application development, networking, governance, risk, privacy, intellectual property and so on will find cybersecurity an important element of their studies, perhaps giving them a unique advantage over their less clued-up peers.
The book has value for:
Studying security aspects of various technologies - IT, OT, ST, VT, NT and more (see the hyperglossary for expansions of these and lots more abbreviations!).
All forms of security including physical security, corporate security etc.
All forms of risk management including technological, environmental, financial, strategic and other risks concerning or involving information - safety, for example.
Governance and management in general, not just for cybersecurity itself.
Information management, systems, flows, processes, interfaces and so forth.
Exploring meanings and using appropriate terms correctly in papers, essays, dissertations, exams etc.
Demonstrating at least a basic understanding of the fundamental concepts, and preferably a solid appreciation of how cybersecurity fits within the broader context of technology, business, information etc.
Sparking a genuine interest in the challenges and possibilities.
