Software and infrastructure only create value when they pull in the same direction as the business. This book shows IT leaders how to get there: from shaping IT strategy and the architecture roadmap to the daily discipline of IT and architecture governance, all built on a pattern-based approach that adapts to your organization rather than forcing it into a template.Grounded in established frameworks such as TOGAF, COBIT, and ITIL, it pairs solid fundamentals with numerous real-world examples — and gives growing weight to compliance and IT security, now central concerns of any IT management agenda.This English edition is based on the German standard work on the subject, fully revised in its 4th edition (late 2024). It is current with TOGAF 10 and reflects recent developments in business-oriented enterprise architecture — including the open-source tool EDGY and patterns for digital strategy — alongside the latest trends in IT risk management and cybersecurity architecture.
Turn "our Shopware store feels slow" into a measurable 30-day plan: one fix a day, each with a before/after metric. Field-tested engineering on caching, Elasticsearch, Redis and CDN — not generic tips.
Cyber risk in M&A gets treated as a compliance check, a heat-map of red and yellow boxes, or a problem to deal with after close. By then it is too late.Quantitative Cyber Diligence (QCD) replaces qualitative cyber diligence with a five-pillar framework that produces a single dollar-denominated figure the investment committee can argue about — calibrated, defensible, and reproducible. Each pillar maps to a measurable exposure: external attack surface, vendor concentration, data sensitivity, security program maturity, and integration risk. The framework aggregates per-pillar exposures with explicit correlation discount, surfaces tail-driver scenarios that conventional analysis misses, and translates the aggregate figure into deal-architecture recommendations: reps and warranties, escrow, price adjustment, or walk-away.This book documents how QCD engagements actually run. Two worked examples (healthcare-IT and industrial-IT). Practitioner templates. Per-pillar pseudocode. Industry loss benchmarks. The complete framework, calibrated to the post-Change-Healthcare era.
The CISO's field guide to hardening ServiceNow, defending its APIs, and meeting NIS2, DORA, and EU AI Act obligations. Written by a former Principal Security Advisor in ServiceNow's Office of the CISO.
You've got forty vendors, a hundred integrations, and a SOC 2 report that tells you exactly nothing about what happens when one of them gets compromised. Your dependency map lives in someone's head. Your exposure estimate is a shrug. Your decision process is whoever talks loudest in the emergency meeting. And when it's over, every lesson learned evaporates before the next incident hits. Someone Else's Breach is the framework that replaces all of it — a quantitative, repeatable system for knowing what you're exposed to, deciding what to do about it, and getting better every time. From proactive resilience design to AI-augmented detection, this is the practitioner's guide to surviving incidents you didn't cause but can't ignore.
What IT policies should a higher education institution actually have?
