    Copied and pasted your thread title into the search box, third thread down from yours:

    https://forum.defcon.org/showthread....ld+one+read%3F

    edit- also, http://www.google.com/#q=security+books
    if it gets me nowhere, I'll go there proud; and I'm gonna go there free.

      If by Hacker Quarterly you mean "2600" then no. Spread the net a bit wider and read EVERYTHING.

        What's a book, no one here reads <rolls eyes>. Reading is so retro, I prefer sucking the knowledge out of the books through osmosis

        Just because you can doesn't mean you should. This applies to making babies, hacking, and youtube videos.

            One of the best and one of my favorites. More theoretical but very interesting and well written.
