Average Rating: 
Rating: - Nothing like learning how much you DON'T know...
I love books like this, which take a different approach to teaching. They begin not by going through, chapter-by-chapter, each individual building block of a network, but by showing you just how horribly wrong you may have been in your thinking all along. Then, they basically say, "Do we have your attention now? Good. Now we'll show you how to mitigate these risks." In my opinion, that's the ONLY way to teach a computer geek, since many are quite set in their ways.
Rating: - A 5 Star Book On Windows Security
In my opinion, this is THE best book I have ever read (and I have read a few) on security in a Windows network.

Rating: - What can I say? Superb even when a couple of years old.
Great people these two authors and very charismatic. If you happened to visit one of the IT forums or speeches you'll know what I mean.

It contains a wide enough breadth to be applicable to all Windows administrators running a variety OS and application levels, while still managing the depth required to be truly informative and serve as a good everyday reference. It provides an incredible amount of detailed theory and hands-on practical advice that will give you the background information, tools and motivation to improve ... Read More
Rating: - A must read for anyone involved with Windows security
The problem with some computer security books is that they are nothing more than pages of checklists with myriad dos and don'ts. But after all the checklists have been dutifully completed, readers still don't understand the underlying concept of how to secure a computer. Within a short time, their computers and networks are insecure, and they are back where they began, as fodder for hackers.
The distinctive nature of Protect Your Windows Network : From Perimeter to Data is that it suggests ways ... Read More
