Summary: Note from an author
Comment: I really enjoyed working on this book and hope you'll enjoy reading it. We've tried to keep each chapter both fun and educational by trying to capture fairly realistically what the attackers do, what they think of the targets (all our IT resources), and even sometimes what the admins should have done to defend better. From an educational perspective, the best thing you can carry away from this book is an attacker's view of your networks. My chapter follows a college kid through a fairly involved hack with a big payoff.

Summary: It's About Time!
Comment: I've read just about every "hacker" and security book worth reading over the past few years, and honestly, most of them really were not worth reading. But, this book is truly unique and is well worth your time to read. The security industry is incredibly complex; technically, socially, and ethically; and this book reflects that. There are many very talented (and WAY TOO MANY not so talented) people on the right, the wrong, and the in between of cyber security. The landscape of the internet changes almost every minute. This book manages to communicate the technical and social intracicies at the same time through a fairly compelling story that also encompasses very challenging, technical information. This really is a must read for anyone involved with the security community.

Summary: A book about REAL hacking
Comment: This is an amazing book about hacking. This will open your eyes to the world of hacking in the same way 'Hacking Exposed' did when it first came out. But different than HE, this doesn't jut tell you the how it tells you the why, and accomplishes this through an interesting fictional story. Anyone in the infosec world will recognize the tools and techniques used throughout the book as completely real and accurate. In many cases the authors of the book are the creators of the tools themselves--like the chapter Fyodor wrote which uses Nmap. I enjoy reading security books, but it's become incresingly difficult to find truly unique, original material. This book certainly fits the bill.
