This up-to-date, easy-to-read guide to computer-related crime examines legal liability risks and recommends practical ways companies can develop policies, codes of conduct, and communications designed to make employees aware of their compliance obligations. Managing Legal and Security Risks in Computing and Communications will: – help you quickly locate pertinent laws – provide guidance on the laws – present a legal reference for developing training material – help you foster a continuing dialog with legal counsel
