Detailed technical information on security processes for all major Microsoft applications Unique project-based “storytelling” delivery, combining multiple security techniques and methods together for real-world solutions to security challenges in actual business use cases Reference-style content for access to specific application security techniques and methods Actual author opinion and guidance as not only HOW to go about security particular applications, but WHY to do so DVD Companion disk with source code, tools, video tutorials, and other materials “Most recognize Thor as the Norse god of thunder with massive powers of destruction. Few realize that he was also the god of restoration. Likewise, his namesake, Timothy “Thor” Mullen, has spent his entire adult life both destroying and restoring Microsoft-based security systems. Thor’s Microsoft Security Bible conveys the wisdom and expertise of the industry legend that has defined the bleeding edge of Microsoft security for over twenty years.

Security Risk Management Posted: 15 Sep 2011 04:34 AM PDT Book Description The goal of Security Risk Management is to teach you practical techniques that will be used on a daily basis, while also explaining the fundamentals so you understand the rationale behind these practices. Security professionals often fall into the trap of telling the business that they need to fix something, but they can’t explain why. This book will help you to break free from the so-called “best practices” argument by articulating risk exposures in business terms. You will learn techniques for how to perform risk assessments for new IT projects, how to efficiently manage daily risk activities, and how to qualify the current risk level for presentation to executive level management. While other books focus entirely on risk analysis methods, this is the first comprehensive guide for managing security risks. Includes case studies to provide hands-on experience using risk assessment tools to calculate the costs and benefits of any security investment Explores each phase of the risk management lifecycle, focusing on policies and assessment processes that should be used to properly assess and mitigate risk Presents a roadmap for designing and implementing a security risk management program Table of Contents Part I – Introduction to Risk Management Chapter 1.
