Abstract
What does computer security have to do with personnel? Well, security experts are not likely to make simple security mistakes, whereas ordinary staff are. If a social engineer pretends to be system administrator and asks an employee to do some suspicious actions, the security staff will not likely be fooled, but some ordinary staff could. Since security is only as strong as the weakest link, all links must be made strong! Therefore, a major goal of personnel security is to ensure that all staff understand policies, know their security responsibilities, and are sufficiently trained to perform these security responsibilities. Thus, it is useful for the security designer (you) to have completed all of the previous chapters in the book. How can you assign security responsibilities and design security training unless you understand what each role involves?
