I work in healthcare and have had trouble trying to get department managers completely on board but I have gotten to take over a handful of things IT used to do. The way I explained it to my CEO is that data owners are responsible for the who has access to the data and how they access it. Data custodians (IT) are the ones that make sure the data is available and that it gets backed up.
IT used to be both data owners and custodians. I explained to my CEO that IT doesn't know Sally needs (or doesn't need) access to the billing department's file share. It is up to management within that department to make that determination. If it is left to IT a lot of people could end up having access to data they don't need access to. I never really came up with an analogy.
This is covered in the "Information Security Governance and Risk Management" of the CISSP exam. Shon Harris's all-in-one exam book covers it pretty well. Eric Conrad also has a study guide. It does a very good job of explaining the CISSP concepts.
I'm not sure if that is exactly what you're looking for but there it is.
This book.

The got my doctorate in cyber security in 2015. I was focused on system hardening and found this book and loved it. "The Craft of System Security" https://www.amazon.com/dp/0321434838/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_BpfKzbD3VNX2X
Ah, darksim, we meet again!
As far as a general guide, there's the usual O'Reilly books - Postfix, Spam Assassin, Sendmail if you're a poor SOB who has to administer a Sendmail box, Zimbra (sigh), etc.
If you're using AWS SES as a relay, they have tons of good documentation on their website.
Honestly though, 40% of what I learned was from co-workers who learned it the hard way, 58% was from googling things and maybe 2% was from a reference manual or two we had sitting around. Just implementing email infrastructure does amazing things for your knowledge of it, and figuring out what the hell is going on when your clients call you highly upset because the entire IP block they're in has been blacklisted.
O'Reilly's Effective UI book is modern, well-written and organized and has a fantastic overview of the UI/UX field and design patterns associated with it.
Herding Cats might be a helpful book or lead you to a better one.
I have a copy of Python For Everyone, Python for Everyone, there is a single troll negative review on the link below, ignore it, it's a great book

As long as you have the Amazon Kindle app, it should automatically give you the option. Give this link a try, it offers a $14 purchase or $7 month-long rental: Eleventh Hour CISSP: Study Guide by Eric Conrad et al. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004H1TBSU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_udp_awd_vDKMwbJ4SGX61

Studying it for work.
Though I think BloodyIron should use Nagios instead of Zenoss, Nagios' documentation is absolutely horrible. Pro Nagios 2.0 is a much better guide, especially for designing an object hierarchy: http://www.amazon.com/Nagios-Experts-Voice-Open-Source/dp/1590596099/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
I see. Thank you. I figured the IOS files weren't included when Vauce said it was an emulator, but I had no idea where to begin.
Fortunately, I have a lot of simulator time under my belt (LabSim by TestOut and Network Simulator by Wendell Odum.
The LabSim software has been the most excellent resource thus far. The hands on labs have been:
Fortunately, after all these different labs - I feel at home on the CLI.
But, I could ALWAYS use some more practice.
Systems Analysis and Design in a Changing World (Sixth Edition) <-- this was the version required for a class
Seventh Edition(?)
This book is free from any programming languages and is instead supposed to aide the development of thinking and planning applications.
murach's SQL Server 2012 for developers <-- required for class
murach's SQL Server 2016
Uses SQL to further enforce "forms" for application data structures.

After my research at the time, this book seemed to be the most appropriate for my scenario.

One of the things I did at the start was an audit of their QA processes via the TPI model. It has a spreadsheet you can fill out to do this audit. Once I was done, I did audits every 3 months and showed how the overall process was improving and what areas I wanted to focus on next.

I found this helpful back in the day when I was starting my career, Some stuff might be outdated but the core basics remain the same.
I had the same issue for a while. When I first started working, I just didn't have a ton of time, so I would read short stories. I thought of them like bite sized books.
I got into the Best American Short Stories series. A new one comes out every year. They're a compilation of the best short stories published from the previous year, most of which are published in various. Each issue is edited by a different (relatively famous) author.
The stories are almost unilaterally wonderful. And they're relatively short.
I liked them enough that I started to buy other short story anthologies, like the Best of the Iowa Writer's Workshop and the O'Henry award winners. I even subscribed to some of the magazines that would feature the stories I liked most.
If you can think of an author you like, then buy short stories by that person. But if you're looking for some variety, or to expand your horizons to new authors, then it's a great place to become familiar with some new names in writing.

Was considered a pretty good intro when it came out. Good luck!
Wonderful advise, thank you very much.
That step-by-step is very useful for start. I bought ABAP OBJECTS and it has helped me a hell of a lot.
I've noticed that learning to program is a lot like learning a language. Logic and structure plays a big part but they're nothing if you don't remember the words (or syntax).
