Opis

Threats to security affect all of us, as criminals, hackers, terrorists, and hostile foreign states continually find new ways to exploit us, their potential victims. World-leading security expert Paul Martin sets out ten guiding principles of protective security - a toolkit that is relevant to individuals, families, businesses, and government.

Recenzje

... a deceptively easy read in that there are ten bite-size takeaway nuggets of digestible information that will make you more aware, informed and alert. Where Martin scores heavily is in the authenticity he brings to the subject, making his set of ideas less of a management self-help book and more of a first step towards protecting your assets.
