The importance of information and the protection of its integrity against ever-increasing cyber risks and threats necessitate that businesses ensure that reasonable steps are taken to secure their information assets, resources, and systems, failing which may render a them legally liable. In recent years considerable effort has been made to protect information assets, especially in the form of customer, client, and patient information against unauthorised disclosure and misuse. However it is not often that one comes across a study focusing on cybercafes and the importance of its cyber security infrastructure. This topic is often ignored and or neglected as focus is generally placed on the importance of corporate cyber security. This book, however, correctly highlights the importance of cybercafes. Cybercafes are often used in various countries to conduct day-to-day business and conclude important transactions. Cybercafes are in fact one of the best ways in which the digital divide can be breached. It is therefore encouraging that this topic is highlighted in the book.
