What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

Staying in front of the bad guys and sometimes protecting yourself from the brain-dead acts in corporate environments are keys to successful security measures. Tiller teaches on the simplicity of security, breaking it down from smoke and mirrors to time-proven measures.… I have enjoyed reading Tiller’s books in the past; his approach and ability to break down what is sometimes made to look like a complicated structure allows for not only a better understanding but a framework that is able to stand the test of time.
