Security Operations in Practice

by Mike Sheward

Security operations departments are growing in importance and recognition; they are responsible for the secure day to day running of an organisation's network, endpoint, application, identity and physical security controls. This book walks you through how to establish and grow a strong security operations team, including hiring the right people, knowing when to build a tool rather than buy, and crafting procedures that allow the team to detect and respond to a wide variety of security threats.
