Layman, don't mind me
As someone who knows next to nothing, take my comment for what it's worth.
Pros: Fast read and well rounded.
Cons: Author left out a few explanations (i.e. preventative security measures in the cyber security chapter).

On to the next
Wanted a guide on how I can effectively communicate with our IT folks. I picked up a few good points, but, need more.

Good book
Explains succinctly the idea of it. From cloud computing, through database management and creation to security and system management, it introduces nicely.

Very basic introduction to IT
As a non IT professional, I found the book interesting and informative. It has summarised the very basic concepts of IT.
