Summary: Great resource
Comment: As a former police officer, I can say without a doubt that Shinder's book is a terrific resource for both law enforcement officers and those who want to become more familiar with a growing criminal industry: cybercrime. I found the book easy to read, interesting and dead on in its accuracy. For those who want to take their expertise to the next level, this book is a must. For those who only want to famliarize themselves with the things cybercriminals know, this is a step ahead. Recommended without reservation.

Summary: An Excellent Introduction to Computer Crime
Comment: If you're looking for a clear explanation of computer crime, and how to prevent, investigate and prosecute it, there's no better place to start than this book. It isn't a bleeding-edge technical manual for IT professionals looking for new ways to secure their systems, nor is it a technical investigation manual for law enforcement personnel. Instead, the book delivers exactly what it claims to - an excellent introduction to and overview of the subject of computer crime, with an emphasis on helping IT and law enforcement professionals understand one another's priorities, capabilities and needs. There is enough technical information, however, to make it worthwhile for those who already have some experience in this area. As a cop and police instructor with a background in the IT field, I have read a number of books in this subject area. This one tops the field. It's not perfect (thus 4 stars, not 5), but it's certainly the best that I've found yet. It's well worth investing in for both information security and law enforcement personnel. In fact, I've ordered extra copies as Christmas gifts for friends who are in the business.

Summary: The Number One Computer Security Primer
Comment: Here is a book for anyone who needs a broad and accurate knowledge of computer security. This book reminds me very much of "Secrets and Lies : Digital Security in a Networked World", with one major difference -- "Scene of the Cybercrime" is written by one of the truly gifted communicators in the computer network security field. Deb Shinder communicates in a clear, precise and objective way that is completely unique. Most computer security books are "blah blah and I did this, and blah hackers, and blah Microsoft is bad, and "waving hands" blah blah." NOT this book. All computer security authors have biases, all except Deb Shinder. The book is about the facts. Clear, clean, crisp facts. Facts you can use on the job, on the beat, and "on deck" in front of the bench. This book is almost like "Secrets and Lies" except that "Scene of the Cybercrime" is written by a world class communicator in plain and relevant English. It reads like a detective story. This book raises the bar on network security books so high that its unlikely another will ever surpass it.
