Reader Reviews
This book was required for a Computer Forensics related class. There are many errors, not just typographical, but in concepts and technical information. At times it is filled with a mind-numbing number of details, much of which will be obsolete by the time you read this. In other areas it skips over important concepts leaving you lost. If you're hoping to learn more about network security you're better off looking elsewhere.
