Reviews

          "A dynamite table of contents puts answers to your security questions right in front of you. The 'answers' are provided by people who have 'done it', which makes them all the more specific and useable. It's my opinion that this book ought to be on your bookshelf where you can pull it down, look-up a challenge, and see how someone out there solved it."

          "Business Security is a comprehensive and explicit manual which focuses upon personal safety measures ranging from threat of physical attack to carefully screening one's employees to protecting one's network against computer viruses. While much of the physical safety advice comprising Business Security is especially appropriate for high-profile corporate VIPs who may be subject to kidnapping, attacks, or other dangers simply because of their wealth and status (whether at home or while traveling abroad), the more general self-defense guidelines for personal physical welfare, the security of computers and computer data, and the guarding against fraud or theft are directly applicable to all business owners and management personnel. Business Security is an absolute "must-read" for businessmen and businesswomen everywhere."

          "A Versatile and Important Guide. This information-dense book will give you an important start on dealing with any security issue likely to arise in your business. Had a mugging in your parking lot? Here's how to make your employees and customers safer. Had a customer skip out on a large debt? This is where to go and what to do to get your money back. Want to do a background check on someone? Look here and find out how."

          "I have been dealing with keeping my companies' employees and funds safe for decades. I still learned quite a bit from this book, and will be keeping it handy for future reference. Buy it. Read it. Apply it. If even one technique is needed, you will have more than repaid your time, money and effort."

Protecting Yourself

          The scenarios in this book are very helpful in protecting yourself from a lot of grief. Things you don't ordinarily think about are pointed out to alert you of potential safety risks. It may be titled Business Security, but some of the safety measures can be taken for the individual and ordinary person. The book is an interesting book to read and entertaining. Some items are even good for group discussions. I gave it 5 stars because the book is easy to read and there is useful informantion in it for everyone whether you own a business or not.

          "Having been in the pool business for 25 years, I know how busy and hectic daily routines can be. Reading a book is the last thing I have time to do. Business Security is loaded with great subjects that I can look up and read only a few pages to learn what I need to know. I feel safer with the knowledge I've collected from the many different articles offered in this realistic, post 9-11 based book. I highly recommend this book to anyone, whether business related or not, to use as a "security dictionary" whenever the need arises. "

          "One of the more important books that I have read in the last two years!"

          "Business Security is an amazingly complete how-to book for business owners. If one were using knowledge-based engineering to develop an artificial intelligence program for this oft-neglected area of business, this book would be an excellent source to use as the foundation. The author / editor has gleaned articles from some of the top security consultants in the world and presented them in a logical, easy to understand format. The articles are gems of detailed information based on common sense and years...no, centuries of experience. Each article deals with a specific aspect of security pertinent to the heightened requirements of a post-9/11 reality. There is something for everyone and for every aspect of running a business. If you want to know how to protect your company's computers from worms and viruses; if you want to know how to do your own employee background checks (even in foreign countries); if you want to know what to teach your executives to safeguard their lives; if you want to know how to collect information on competitors and how to safeguard your own company from the same, it's all in here plus much more. Each article is accompanied by the contact information of the contributing consultant, in case a business owner wants more hands-on advice."

          "As a retired intelligence professional, this reviewer was simply blown away by the completeness and usefulness of the information in this excellent book."

          "The most complete manual to protect your family, home, and business. Worth the price of ten books because it is ten books in one!"

          "In the post 9-11 world, every business manager and owner needs to pay attention to security. Whether it is a terrorist or an overly eager competitor, the threats are there. This book shows you how to protect yourself and your business, and take affirmative action to thwart "evil-doers" of all kinds. It is said that the best crime is one that is never discovered. With the help of this book, business owners and managers are better prepared to avoid a problem before it occurs."
