NISTIR 8011 Volume 2: Hardware Asset Management Released JUNE 2017 The NISTIR 8011 volumes focus on each individual information security capability, adding tangible detail to the more general overview given in NISTIR 8011 Volume 1, and providing a template for transition to a detailed, NIST standards-compliant automated assessment. This document, Volume 2 of NISTIR 8011, addresses the Hardware Asset Management (HWAM) information security capability. The focus of the HWAM capability is to manage risk created by unmanaged and/or unauthorized devices on a network. Unmanaged devices are targets that attackers can use to gain and more easily maintain a persistent platform from which to attack the rest of the network. Why buy a book you can download for free? First you gotta find it and make sure its the latest version (not always easy). Then you gotta print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people and its outta paper and the toner is low (take out the toner cartridge, shake it, then put it back). If its just 10 pages, no problem, but if its a 250-page book, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. An engineer thats paid $75 an hour has to do this himself (who has assistants anymore?). If you are paid more than $10 an hour and use an ink jet printer, buying this book will save you money. Its much more cost-effective to just order the latest version from Amazon.com This book is published by 4th Watch Books and includes copyright material.
