    Security Warrior by O'Reilly

    Anyone had a chance to pick up this book? I have read alot of it and find it to be a good book covering most of your security needs such as SE and other attacks, mainly a guide to protecting yourself and your assets online. Good read.

          Thanks man, but you prob can't help me... Its just a stupid traffic volation, if it was something major, i'd try to get out of it..
          Thx though...

          Yeah Ck3k, i read it for bout 20 minutes, soo i know how it goes..
          I wouldn't advise letting me borrow it.. I would probably just want to keep it..

                From what I have seen on the link, it looks like a good book. I need a new bathroom book, so I think I'll grab a copy.

                  Maxim Magazine is bathroom reading. O'reilly books are more the type of thing you read in bed at night.

                          I just bought the book... and It is REALLY good... There's not even a hint of that 'script kiddy' style of some security 'hacking' books. Its a 500+ page book with everything from attacks, to defence, reverce engineering, OS fingerprinting Incident responce, a bit of wireless and more...
                          Go to your local bookstore and check it out / buy it....

                              Let me guess, Ast. Would that be the overpay/don't cash the check method?
