As the article is addressed primarily on business managers and other practically interested personnel, the language is a bit too full of professional jargon and other needless complications, however the basic facts that the author lays out and the conclusions drawn from these facts and their relationship are quite straightforward and clear. Though not providing any truly in-depth and concrete data or profound insights, this presents overview information that is directly related to the investigation of network and information security.
