Welcome friend!
This group allows us to:
Develop a common understanding of key terms of art;
Discuss cybersecurity terms and concepts;
Debate the meanings and definitions;
Understand our different perspectives and concerns;
Suggest new, improved or alternative definitions;
Advance both the language and the field;
Keep in touch with developments and progress on the book (supplementing Hyperglossary.com);
Review and comment on the book (once published!),
Along the way, I will be sharing samplers from the Hyperglossary and raising terminological or linguistic issues that arose when writing it.
Thank you in advance for your participation.
Kind regards,
Gary
