This text introduces the concepts of information warfare from a non-military, <br />
organizational perspective. It is designed to stimulate managers to develop <br />
policies, strategies, and tactics for the aggressive use and defence of their <br />
data and knowledge base. The book covers the full gambit of information warfare <br />
subjects from the direct attack on computer systems to the more subtle <br />
psychological technique of perception management. It provides the framework <br />
needed to build management strategies in this area. The topics covered include <br />
the basics of information warfare, corporate intelligence systems, the use of <br />
deception, security of systems, modes of attack, a methodology to develop <br />
defensive measures, plus specific issues associated with information warfare.<br />
