Summary

Angus McIlwraith's book explains how corporate culture affects perceptions of risk and information security, and how this in turn affects employee behaviour. He then provides a very pragmatic solution involving strategies and techniques for educating and training employees in information security and explains how different metrics can be used to assess awareness and behaviour.

Excerpts

Ritual and the Sacred discusses some of the most important issues of modern socio-political life through the lens of a neo-Durkheimian perspective. Building on the main lesson of Durkheim's Elementary Forms of Religious Life, this book articulates values and practices common to non-Western and religious traditions that have the capacity to shape our modern way of living. This title will be of key interest to sociologists of religion, philosophy politics and social theorists.
