“As a long-time Director on a public company board and advisor for several companies that actively deal with cybersecurity governance, I realized that I was uniquely positioned to provide valuable insight to this audience,” says Goldman.
Goldman draws on his experience advising security policies as a long-time public company board director and CEO of TextPower, the developer of the patented TextKey® solution for multifactor authentication. “One of my strengths and personal interests is translating complex technical information into terms that anyone can understand,” comments Goldman. “My hope is that fellow executives find the book a valuable resource.”
Cybersecurity has become top-of-mind for corporate leaders. In July 2023, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted new rules that require greater levels of transparency related to cybersecurity incidents as well as annual disclosure of material information related to cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance.
The book’s chapters guide the reader through the four Rs of cybersecurity: Resist, Restrict, Recover, and Report, with practical guidance and information for all sizes and types of organizations that will inevitably have to deal with cybersecurity incidents.
“I enjoy sharing my knowledge and felt compelled to create a resource that could be used by senior executives in an accessible manner,” continues Goldman, and “I realized that a practical guide would be most useful, a straightforward road map containing actionable information.”
As CEOs, Board Directors, and other senior managers move to strengthen cybersecurity policies and procedures, “The Four Rs of Cybersecurity” is a framework and reference to begin the process and provides useful context for interacting with internal or contracted security professionals.
“The Four Rs of Cybersecurity” is available for purchase on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop and other leading online booksellers.
