Well, for one, this book contains all the revisions as of January 2020. Putting all this material in hard copy is critical. Sure, you can access the regulations on a web site - if you happen to have an internet connection. But, if you are on the road or in the courtroom, nothing beats having the book right there. Turning the pages is less likely to annoy the judge than constant clacking on a keyboard. Each of the books published by 4th Watch Publishing Co. cover a wide range of topics that are carefully designed to work together to produce a holistic approach to security primarily for government agencies and constitute the best practices used by industry. This holistic strategy to security covers the gamut of security subjects from development of secure encryption standards for communication and storage of information while at rest to how best to recover from a cyber-attack. Why buy a regulation you can download for free? We print this so you don't have to. Some documents are only distributed in electronic media. Some online docs are missing some pages or the graphics are barely legible. When a new regulation is released, a security professional prints it out, punches holes and puts it in a 3-ring binder. While this is not a big deal for a 5 or 10-page document, many government regulations are over 100 pages and printing a large document is a time-consuming effort. So, a security professional is spending hours simply printing out the tools needed to do the job. That's time that could be better spent doing work. We publish these documents so security professionals can focus on what they were hired to do.
