[Air-L] Cyber-Security syllabus or textbook?

Wed Sep 4 03:37:24 PDT 2019

All, a bit late, and with apologies for shameless self-promotion, but Sharon Sandeen and I have a new textbook titled Information Law, Governance, and Cybersecurity (West Academic Publishing) that may be of interest. More information can be found here: https://faculty.westacademic.com/Book/Detail?id=223314.

Happy to discuss off-list!

Thanks, Best, Dave
