MCSE Self-Paced Training Kit (Exam 70-298): Designing Security for a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Network Review by D. Landberg
Toe Socks Optional
Although I feel a one-ness with a Network Engineer that wears orange toe socks (I have ones with squirrels on the end which I have also worn at the airport much to security's chagrin), I can't help but feel that the twenty-something self-taught demographic (the bulk of our upcoming network engineers) will desire something more from this book.
The technical aspects are less than easy to follow, whereas the theory is sound but somewhat disorganized. Overall, the book is a review of what I know from the core MCSE tests and a double-check on my security common sense.
On the other hand - I can't say how it could be written better, Security is a learned skill, and taught best in the wild. Therefore I recommend this book - at a minimum you will get an impressive asterisk next to your MCSE on your resume and at best you'll get an insight into security on a Windows network.
