I have to say that I disagree completely with hermie's assessment, and felt compelled enough to say so in print! First of all, the book does cover a number of web platforms besides IIS -- it's the only ...             Hacker's Challenge 3 (Hacking Exposed)9 reviews David Pollino, Bill Pennington, ... McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2006 A Digest of the New World of Hack Attacks What struck me about this book is that the attacks are all brand new. This isn't just a rehash of the same old attacks we read about over and over again, nor is it a rehash of the attacks - but on steroids - from the previous Hacker's Challenge books. The day of the simple port scan and null session enumeration are long gone. Today's world is much more complicated and scarier. Hacker's ...             Hacker's Challenge : Test Your Incident Response Skills Using 20 Scenarios23 reviews McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2001 Challenging!

It's fashionable to think HE books are only suitable for script kiddies who run tools they don't understand against vulnerable services they don't recognize. I like HE books because the good ones explain a technology from a security standpoint, how to exploit it, and how to defend it. I thought HE:V did well in all three areas, even ...             Windows 2000 (Hacking Exposed)24 reviews Joel Scambray, Stuart McClure McGraw-Hill Companies, 2001 Hacking exposed: excellent books This is a general comment regarding Hacking Exposed series.

All offensive theory is backed up by command line examples, followed by defensive countermeasures. Hacking Exposed: Linux, 2nd Ed (HE:L2E) follows this tradition, updating the content of the first edition and adding 200 pages of new content. Although I reviewed the first edition in Sep 01, reading the second edition reminded me of the ...             Hacking Exposed Cisco Networks10 reviews, ... McGraw-Hill Medical, 2005 Great Overall View of the Situation I think that it is difficult, perhaps impossible, to build a modern network that does include at least some Cisco equipment. Following the general set up rules in the various manuals produce a system architecture that is generally considered to be at least reasonably secure. Basically this book may well change your mind on just how secure your Cisco system really is.

(Hacking Exposed)3 reviews Joel Scambray, Mike Shema, ... McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2006 The best book to start your Web application hacking experience I recently received copies of Hacking Exposed: Web Applications, 2nd Ed (HE:WA2E) by Joel Scambray, Mike Shema, and Caleb Sima, and Professional Pen Testing for Web Applications (PPTFWA) by Andres Andreu. I read HE:WA2E first, then PPTFWA. Both are excellent books, but I expect potential readers want to know which is best for them. I could honestly recommend readers buy either (or both) books. ...             Hacking Exposed Computer Forensics (Hacking Exposed)7 reviews Chris Davis, Aaron Philipp, ... McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2004 Excellent Explanations -- Very Easy to Use I work on the security team in a large company and use this as a key reference when working investigations.

Computing Mcgraw-Hill, 1999 I simply loved this book This book is a must for every Admin out there. I would also recommend this book to IT managers/directors/etc. This book is more than just an explaination of security holes/fixes but puts you into the mind of the cracker. You must see the world as the cracker does in order to defend yourself. In Patton, Patton was shouting "I read your book" to Rommel as he beat Rommel in a tank battle. This is ...             Hacking Exposed88 reviews Joel Scambray, Stuart McClure, ..., 2000 Excellent book for the beginner While starting out in a new career, this book has been recommended to me time and time again.

With all the hype currently being generated about digital piracy, I decided it might be interesting to read Software Piracy Exposed by Paul Craig and Mark Burnett. There's an interesting subculture there that's unlike anything I've ever known, and it's not quite what I expected... Craig spent some time working himself into a position of trust with a number of significant players in the piracy ...             Hacking Exposed Wireless3 reviews McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2007 Solid but not exceptional When I read and reviewed Wi-Foo: The Secrets of Wireless Hacking three years ago, I was really impressed. Wi-Foo is obviously showing its age now, but a second edition is in the works. I was excited to see Hacking Exposed: Wireless (HE:W), green cover and all, because I hoped it would be just as good as Wi-Foo but covering newer topics. Overall I think the next Wi-Foo will be better than HE:W, ...             Hacking Exposed Linux (Hacking Exposed)6 reviews ISECOM McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2008 First time not disappointed This is the first time that I'm not disappointed at all after buying a new edition of a Hacking Exposed book. Yes, it is not a rehash of the 2nd edition. What's wrong about that? Combining the concepts of OSSTMM and Hacking Exposed was a wonderful idea. It's an excellent starting point for both students and professionals. I wish we would see more innovation like this on the security book market.             Hacker's Challenge 2: Test Your Network Security & Forensic Skills12 reviews Mike Schiffman, Bill Pennington, ...

McGraw-Hill Osborne Media, 2005 Network infrastructure security sections are excellent I read Extreme Exploits because the content looked intriguing and I am familiar with applications written by lead author Victor Oppleman. The back cover states the book is "packed with never-before-published advanced security techniques," but I disagree with that assessment. While I found all of the content helpful, between 1/3 and 1/2 of it is probably available in older books -- including ...              search for books advanced, against, applications, challenge, computer, defenses, developing, edition, exploits, exposed, extreme, forensic, forensics, hacking, hardcore, incident, microsoft, network, networks, response, scenarios, secrets, secure, security, skills, software, solutions, technology, windows, wireless books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
