About.com: Business Security (2nd Edition)
This is the type of security book I like, no nonsense, straight to the point with practical security related information in it. I am a big advocate of security awareness programs in companies and this book would be a great companion for security awareness training for your information technology staff.

It’s not supposed to be a list of recommendations to be followed without thought. It’s useful even if there are things you don’t agree with. And that’s certainly the case with the Second Edition of The Little Black Book of Computer Security.

This book is easy to read, and Joel's writing is not the typical geek-to-geek style found in many computer books. . . The real value . . . is the ability to quickly find information and suggestions without getting into too much technical detail.

This book is a very different approach to Information Security. I have to say, I think this style is long over do.
