Here is what industry experts and IT Administrators are saying about Making Passwords Secure:
I most highly recommend reading the timely and informative book by Dovell Bonnett, “Making Passwords Secure: Fixing the Weakest Link in Cybersecurity”. As companies, individuals are increasingly being subjected to breaches and ransomware attacks, the need for cybersecurity awareness and safeguards have become paramount. Thankfully, Dovell, who has been creating computer security solutions for over 20 years, offers a one-stop guide book on how to mitigate cyber threats by explaining the basis and tactics of authentication security. The book is written in a concise style that provides useful information for both laymen and serious techies. It is a book that should be on everyone’s reading list!
~ Chuck Brooks, Vice President, Sutherland Government Solutions
If you want to find out about the world of multi-factor authentication in a less technical and more informative way, I can genuinely recommend this book.
~ Sandra Jones, Principal, Sandra Jones and Company
Addictive… Introduces readers to this brave new world of technology, where hackers roam free, and victims include nearly anyone on the Web. Dovell presents this myriad of cyber weaknesses and attack examples in a matter-of-fact voice with intriguing real world examples throughout. It’s both fun and informative.
~Eileen Kent, The Federal Sales Sherpa, President, Custom Keynotes, LLC
Understanding the weak points in cybersecurity allows IT to fill them, but not without a budget. CEOs need to understand what their CISOs are facing. No one points this out better than Dovell. Logging on to your computer network will have a new meaning after reading this book.
~Sherman Crancer, Microsoft PCDM
Dovell Bonnett urges business owners to take responsibility for their computer networks and cybersecurity. If you don’t get your employees out of the position of network security administrator, then the responsibility of a data breach will be on the owners.
~ William Yeadon, CEO, Chase Security Solutions, Australia
This book is a MUST-READ for any manager in the IT industry. While there are many, competing priorities in information technology, being conversant on the notion of a “Password Authentication Infrastructure” is critical enough to demand everyone’s attention. I have received so many “ah-ha” moments as I read this book; things that are right before my eyes that I have given little thought or to which I have paid little attention. Thank you Dovell for opening my eyes to the one commonly used, yet overlooked security vulnerability! Thank you for providing a road-map to addressing this is an effective way! Your writing style and appropriate humor made this topic very digestible!
~ Karen Clay, IT Director, Carlos Rosario International Public Charter School
Making Passwords Secure is a must-read for everyone. No matter what business you’re in, strong passwords and effective password management are critical for maintaining secure networks. Dovell Bonnett has done us all a favor by combining his knowledge, helpful stories, and extensive research in an easy-to-read format. Get this on your bookshelf today!
~ Dietrich Wecker, Security Software Developer
Multi-factor authentication is essential for good security, with a remembered password as a common factor. Dovell Bonnett writes in a clear, easy-to-understand, non-technical style, with useful information. This book claims to be “A guide to understanding the weakest links, and appropriate solutions for cybersecurity.” I feel it meets these claims, and more.
~ Hitoshi Kokumai, President, Mnemonic Security, Inc.
In this thought-provoking work, Dovell Bonnett digs into the nuts-and-bolts of the authentication challenge and talks about why username-and-password isn’t going away anytime soon but can be made secure for many applications. As “The Password Guy,” Dovell debunks many of the myths of infallibility surrounding multi-factor authentication and other high-technology solutions, in favor of a pragmatic approach to password management that is a 99% solution to this often vexing enterprise challenge.
