Very in-depth， had it as course book for introduction to cybersecurity and it covers wide variety of topics in good detail。

This new edition covers all security topics considered Core in the ACM/IEEE Computer Science Curricula 2013， as well as subject areas for CISSP （Certified Information Systems Security Professional） certification。 This textbook can be used to prep for CISSP Certification and is often referred to as the 'gold standard' when it comes to information security certification。 The text provides in-depth coverage of Computer Security， Technology and Principles， Software Security， Management Issues， Crypt This new edition covers all security topics considered Core in the ACM/IEEE Computer Science Curricula 2013， as well as subject areas for CISSP （Certified Information Systems Security Professional） certification。 This textbook can be used to prep for CISSP Certification and is often referred to as the 'gold standard' when it comes to information security certification。 The text provides in-depth coverage of Computer Security， Technology and Principles， Software Security， Management Issues， Cryptographic Algorithms， Internet Security。Required reading for class， which was in many ways a refresher of security classes taken in the past， though the instructor made the class dry and boring the book is informative。 。。。more

Even though by fourth edition they claim a 2017 print date， too much of this book is out of date。 For example， the table of biometric authentication reliability data is from 2001， far before touchID and FaceID。This book tries to take on too much， and discusses a security design much more than providing examples of breaches。 In my opinion， a key part of studying security is practically reviewing recovery from failures， and concretely examining potential future attacks。 Cryptography is effectively Even though by fourth edition they claim a 2017 print date， too much of this book is out of date。 For example， the table of biometric authentication reliability data is from 2001， far before touchID and FaceID。This book tries to take on too much， and discusses a security design much more than providing examples of breaches。 In my opinion， a key part of studying security is practically reviewing recovery from failures， and concretely examining potential future attacks。 Cryptography is effectively relegated to an appendix。 The chapters seem arbitrarily ordered。This may still be the best textbook on cyber security， that shows a big market opportunity。 None of the chapters go deep enough to be sufficient for real world understanding。 。。。more

This was the textbook for our postgraduate information security course。 Having read it cover to cover， I can say that it is， if nothing else， quite thorough。 Unfortunately it is also quite dry。 But as textbooks go， this one is not bad。 It contains clear descriptions and diagrams of the important security algorithms and protocols， and offers industry insights from authors who are clearly very experienced in the field。

I gave this 4 stars not because I "really liked it"， but because it is a solid introduction to Computer Security。Do not try to read this for fun。 It won't be。 I gave this 4 stars not because I "really liked it"， but because it is a solid introduction to Computer Security。Do not try to read this for fun。 It won't be。 。。。more

One of the best security books available。

Read for school。。。。

I read a few key chapters and skimmed a few others because they were not required。 I found that it did indeed compliment Nigel's cryptography book very well。 If you try to study computer security on your own， I suggest buying both versions （Nigel's is a free download）。 I read a few key chapters and skimmed a few others because they were not required。 I found that it did indeed compliment Nigel's cryptography book very well。 If you try to study computer security on your own， I suggest buying both versions （Nigel's is a free download）。 。。。more

Used as one of 3 books for my first Master's Degree class in Cyber Security。 2 stars because unless you buy this book new， you will have to pay an additional $20 to access the Appendices。 I just can't wrap my mind around selling 1 book twice & making an additional $20 for every subsequent student， who already paid too much for the book whether it was used or a rental。 It is completely jacked up to sell an incomplete book and expect extra money for the rest of it。 It has decent information， but t Used as one of 3 books for my first Master's Degree class in Cyber Security。 2 stars because unless you buy this book new， you will have to pay an additional $20 to access the Appendices。 I just can't wrap my mind around selling 1 book twice & making an additional $20 for every subsequent student， who already paid too much for the book whether it was used or a rental。 It is completely jacked up to sell an incomplete book and expect extra money for the rest of it。 It has decent information， but the same info is also covered by Panko or Smith in similar books that are sold as complete packages。 。。。more

I used this course in developing my graduate fundamentals of information assurance course for Walden University。
