Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: Microsoft has finally decided to publicly support network security in Windows XP, a new area covered in the third edition of bestseller, Hacking Exposed. Other new coverage includes attacks on 802.11 wireless networks. But despite details of recent high-profile worms such as Code Red, most of the material is carried over pretty well unchanged from earlier editions. The guts of Hacking Exposed remain devoted to explaining operating systems, switch and network vulnerabilities--used by the bad guys to get in--and how to remove them. The solutions--apart from the material on social engineering--can require an understanding of network and operating system protocols, user privileges, validation, encryption, file systems and other arcana--though the explanations supplied are detailed enough for the interested user to understand and apply firewalls, security patches, effective authentication and other effective security measures. The book is supported by a Web site with useful network analysis and other tools you can use to investigate and harden your own systems. Hacking Exposed remains one of the most accessible books available on network security and the latest version is excellent. However, while new vulnerabilities continue to be found the basics remain the same. If Hacking Exposed were software the third edition would be a free upgrade for registered users. Even so, it should be compulsory reading for sysadmins everywhere. --Steve Patient Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Superb book - worth the weight in GoldHaving read this book it made me realise how easy it can be to leave holes behind. If you are thinking of becoming a network security administrator or a security consultant this book will definitely enhance your knowledge. The good thing about this book is that not only does it tell you how to exploit a security hole but also how to close it to avoid the intrusion in the first place. Get this book, it is well worth it Rating: - A MUST for ANY security enthusiast!This book is THE BIBLE to the practical approach to IT security. The book goes through real life examples taking you through the steps from picking up hack signatures to reporting the faults and fixes to the hack. It will take you through cleint and server security flaws, from SQL database, web servers and beyond. The book puts you in the shoes of a hacker and as we all know...to beat a hacker you have to think like a hacker. A must buy, simple as that. Rating: - Information Gold a UnderstatementThere is one , Hacking Exposed already the third version is in print and it is safe to say it is as close to a security bestseller that there is. This book walks you through everything you need to know about how hackers do their work and the best part the the good guys (Security Professional) it also tells you how to implement counter measures or what risks are associated. Sure you might spend days looking for all the information and sure you will find it but this book is what real life is all about and will save your bacon before attackers cook it. The best part is the Hacking Linux Expose book, it shut a few Linux eyes only people up for once and Linux users also have thier own security problems to solve. McGraw hill has taken the risk along time ago and it has paid off big for them. Thanks for publishing this book. When is the Hacking OSX Book comming?? Rating: - Great !!Simply one great book. I was really interested in "security" stuff, but not experienced at all. This book, besides an intriguing look, provides a simple, detailed approach to hacking. Buy it, if you need something on hacking. Rating:  - Linux only please!The books bright cover and bold title make you think wow this is gonna be great. However unfortunaly un-less you're running Linux or have a resonable knowledge of Linux your sc***ed. As it says some where in the first few pages you will need a "decent O/S such as Linux". Oh dear! Which basicly means the enitre book was written for Linux users and tends to drones on about Linux and how "good it is". However if you do have Linux then this is probably the book for you as its very clearly written with lots of diagrams and foot-notes. Covering quite a extensive range of topics.
