Internet Security: A Jumpstart for Systems Administrators and IT Managers

Rating:
Summary: "Jumpstart" Is An Appropriate Subtitle
Review: Tim Speed and Juanita Ellis bring years of experience in helping corporations secure their networks and define their policies and procedures. This book is not a compendium of hacker techniques like Hacking Exposed or even a detailed description of any particular security technology such as firewalls or intrusion detection. This book provide a Security Administrator with the knowledge to implement security for their network and to define policies and procedures. It helps you ask the right questions to define your needs and gives hints and clues for what questions to ask when choosing a technology or vendor. It also contains tons of resources including addresses, phone numbers and URL's to contact many security vendors.
