Network Security For Dummies

A very good book for anyone who is a beginner in IT or any use of technology and computers. Also a brilliant supplement and assistive support for any beginner's coursework if they are studying IT and are struggling in their starting years, I must say and in this case if they are studying Networking Technologies or the Security end of it. Despite it's age, which in understanding isnt too old, its a very easy to understand book and helpful guide in many ways for anyone who is, as I have said, starting or knows nothing about technology and it's security.

easy to read and understand

very good

This book was bought as a present so I cannot answer for its content. I can say it was sopecifically requested by the recipient and also that I have a number of "Dummies" publications and have found them very useful.

happy with delivery and product

This is a brilliant book and I highly recommend it. Everything is explained in such a manner that you don't feel like a dummy. My company has a fairly large network, but there are things in this book that I never thought to check. I wish all the dummies books were this good.

this book may be dated, but for my needs it has been perfect to fill me in on network security issues.technology may and will change, but the reasons for security will always be the same

This book is too old to be relevant today (2012). OK the published date was displayedso I blame myself - but this book is totally useless and an utter waste of money.It was written before Windows7 or W2008 (or even Vista) were released.Or put another way - if you wish to learn about security on NT and XP, this may be the book for you !
