the book

From their first round of funding through to successful exit, the book describes how to incorporate security and privacy into each stage of a start-up’s life.

It shows founders, cybersecurity professionals, and others involved in a start-up how to integrate cybersecurity into your company and build a resilient firm. You’ll learn basic cybersecurity concepts every founder needs to understand and discover how data security and privacy can improve your value proposition in your target market. You’ll also learn how to scale cybersecurity within your organization as you grow.

Start-Up Secure demonstrates how and why data privacy and security are not add-ons that can simply be tacked on at the end of the entrepreneurial journey. Instead, they form part of the foundation of any successful company. A clean and successful exit is not possible without securing a start-up’s data and the privacy of its users. The book shows you how to accomplish that goal using techniques, tools, and strategies appropriate for your industry, organization, and circumstances.

Perfect for entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, leaders, founders, and individual team members at start-ups in any industry and of any size, Start-Up Secure offers readers an invaluable and comprehensive treatment of a crucial topic at a critical moment.
