When implementing security polices, information security professionals are constantly faced with a conflict between the security team and the rest of the business. They must ensure that their organisation is adequately addressing information security risks, whilst also communicating the value of security appropriately.
David Ferbrache, Technical Director at KPMG UK, says “No approach can ever succeed without considering people – and as a profession we need to look beyond our computers to understand the business, the culture of the organisations, and, most of all, how we can create a security environment which helps people feel free to actually do their job.”
By gaining an understanding of the psychology of information security, you can ensure your security programme is a success.
Augusta University’s Cyber Institute adopted the book “The Psychology of Information Security” as part of our Master’s in Information Security Management program because we feel that the human factor plays an important role in securing and defending an organization…We want our students to not only understand technical and managerial aspects of security, but psychological aspects as well.”
-Director of Graduate Studies in Information Security Management, Augusta University
Based on insights gained from academic research and interviews with security professionals from various sectors, this essential guide explains the importance of careful risk management and reveals how to align a security programme with wider business objectives, providing methods and techniques to engage stakeholders and encourage buy-in.
The Psychology of Information Security redresses the balance by considering information security from both end users’ and security professionals’ perspectives, and helps you to understand how a security culture, that puts risk into context, promotes compliance.

Business continuity – planning for, protecting against and ensuring recovery from disruptive events – is more important than ever.
In an increasingly volatile world – exemplified by the COVID-19 pandemic – organisations are looking at business continuity from a fresh perspective. The illusion of business as a rampart against which the waves of the world break harmlessly is shattered; it is no longer possible to pretend that an organisation can weather all storms equally, or that the limited contingencies organisations develop are sufficient to protect them.
As a result, more and more organisations are looking to ISO 22301 – the international standard that defines the requirements for a BCMS – to safeguard their future.
ISO 22301:2019 and business continuity management – Understand how to plan, implement and enhance a business continuity management system (BCMS) walks you through the requirements of ISO 22301:2019, explaining what they mean and how your organisation can achieve compliance. Whether you are seeking certification against the Standard or are simply looking to benefit from business continuity concepts and practices without developing a formal system, this book contains all you need to know.
It is an essential companion guide for those working in business continuity who are looking to introduce or optimise a BCMS aligned with ISO 22301. The book provides a comprehensive introduction to business continuity best practice, including:
Suitable for business continuity managers, risk managers, compliance officers, senior managers, operations managers, project managers and consultants, this practical guide to ISO 22301 will show you how to develop and implement a BCMS so you can minimise the impact of a disaster on your business and continue to provide essential services to your customers, while reassuring all stakeholders that you take business continuity best practice seriously.
