Read it cover-to-cover

It's been a long time since I read a technical book cover-to-cover as I did with this book. The case studies are almost like detective stories. The reader wants to know how they end and what the authors learned. Too many technical books these days are both too dense and too full of errors. Perhaps those are related. The books are so dense that neither the author nor the editors find the mistakes. This book was easy to read cover-to-cover because it's concise, clear, accurate, entertaining, and informative. The choice of topics for the case studies is good: reconnaissance missions, wireless networks, virus infections, denial of service attacks, HIPAA, computer forensics, etc. I learned a lot from the book and enjoyed myself while learning. The book will also serve as a good reference. I imagine I will refer to it quite often as I solve problems that are similar to the ones covered in the book. Definitely a five-star book in my opinion.
