CISM Certification Series Certified Information Security Manager from ISACA

Posted: 10 May 2009 04:16 PM PDT


Are you already working in network security, but want to give your career a big boost? Then turn yourself into a recognized security guru by becoming a Certified Information Security Manager (CISM). You’ll put your security career into overdrive as you learn a common body of knowledge that’s accepted by security pros worldwide.

CISM certification focuses on business and risk management issues. According to Certification Magazine, it is the leading information security certification. The CISM certification process combines an exam with real-life work credit and ongoing education. It tells upper management that you’ve got what it takes to be the high-level security manager they need.

As you listen to CBT Nuggets Trainer Michael Shannon, the entire CISM process will open up for you. Michael shows you how to prepare for the exam and how to get — or substitute for — the work experience you need (both before and after the test).

Michael walks you through CISM’s 5 job-practice (domain) areas and ties them directly to the exam:
# Information Security Governance

# Information Risk Management

# Information Security Program Development

# Information Security Program Management

# Incidence Management & Response

For each domain, he gives you an overview of its goals, its relative importance on the exam and your responsibilities as a manager. Soon you’ll be on your way to CISM certification and a successful information security (INFOSEC) professional career.

CISM is vendor independent. But note that Microsoft recognizes it as an accepted security credential for Security Solutions Competency in the Microsoft Partner Program.

The CISM Certification Package contains the following videos:

# Introduction

# Information Security Governance (Part 1)

# Information Security Governance (Part 2)

# Information Security Governance (Part 3

# Information Risk Management (Part 1)

# Information Risk Management (Part 2)

# Information Risk Management (Part 3)

# Information Security Program Development (Part 1)

# Information Security Program Development (Part 2)

# Information Security Program Development (Part 3)

# Information Security Program Management (Part 1)

# Information Security Program Management (Part 2)

# Information Security Program Management (Part 3)

# Incident Management and Response (Part 1)

# Incident Management and Response (Part 2)

CISM Certification Package highlights for each video:

Video #1. Introduction In this introductory video you will find out about the recent 5 CISM domains and the many topics covered on the way to becoming a Certified Information Security Manager.

ASP.NET 3.5 Application Architecture and Design

 ASP.NET 3.5 Application Architecture and Design

ASP.NET 3.5 Application Architecture and Design

Product Description

Application architecture is an essential skill for ASP.NET developers. It is always tempting to jump in and start coding, but planning your architecture early in the project will leave you with a solid application that scales well, is easy to modify and extend, and saves you time and effort later on. As businesses struggle to control their costs, writing solid code that can be extended easily is becoming even more important.

This book takes a pragmatic approach to Application Architecture in ASP.NET 3.5. It presents a series of common architectural models, and shows how to select the best ones for your project and apply them.

The book begins by showing you how to use the main architectural models in your applications. You will see how to implement n-tier architectures, MVC, design patterns, and more. But this is no software engineering theory book - it is a practical, hands-on guide that shows you how to use these techniques in your software straight away. We then go on to build SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) applications with the Windows Communication Framework (WCF). Finally the book contains some essential guidance on effective database design, and a chapter on localizing your applications.

This book is a great way to learn ASP.NET Architecture in a practical, hands-on way. It will also serve as a quick reference for improving your application design.

Drawing Dynamic Hands

Posted: 10 May 2009 12:45 AM PDT

Burne Hogarth "Drawing Dynamic Hands"
Watson-Guptill | 1988-04-01 | ISBN: 0823013685 | 144 pages | PDF | 12,1 MB

Dynamic Hands is the ideal book to learn how to draw hands and understand the structure of the hand and how it works in all positions. Well drawn hands and feet are extremely important for finished paintings and illustrations. I am a commercial artist and designer, but have worked for many years on non-figurative projects. I am focusing on figurative work again, primarily in the game, fantasy and science fiction field. My goal is to draw entirely from imagination without having to use reference material, and this book by Burne Hogarth and his Dynamic Anatomy is helping me to reach this goal. The illustrations are very well done with several important hand positions and range of motion diagrams. I highly recommend it.
