2 out of 5 stars Good reference, but not a lot of bang for the buck   June 1, 2004
 29 out of 31 found this review helpful

George Bernard Shaw, Mark Twain, and perhaps others have been credited with saying, "I didn't have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead." Perhaps the authors of this book were under the same time constraints, as their tome checks in at a massive 1,256 pages. For all its bulk and valuable reference information, however, it glaringly lacks operations-type material.

The first 19 chapters (and 700 pages) discuss technologies such as firewalls and VPNs. While these are well written, there is nothing here that hasn't been published before; all of the information is easily accessible via the Internet for free.

The final several hundred pages duplicate freely available government information. One is left wondering why the authors felt the need, for example, to include all 257 pages of the Federal Search and Seizure Manual here. Anyone can find it on the U.S. Department of Justice's Web site and search it electronically.

At $95, this book is a pricey substitute for information easily obtainable from the Web. While the information the book does contain is very good, it hardly justifies the price tag.


4 out of 5 stars Information Security Reference - A Must have   March 2, 2004
 17 out of 18 found this review helpful

This is an excellent Information Security reference. It's not for the Techies on how to setup firewalls etc., However it is a "must have" for the Information Security Executives, Managers and operations teams that develop, maintain, implement and enforce security principles, practices, policies and procedures. It's definitely a must for the True Security Professionals library with a wealth of knowledge and references. This is something that I will keep close at hand.
