Each chapter concludes with exam-style review questions (with answers) and further questions intended to stimulate the reader to think about the material in their local organizational context. The topic almost inevitably involves loads of acronyms so thankfully a succinct glossary is included.
I wanted to forward this bit of information from Sean Convery (the author of the book) to the list regarding the request for an accompanying reference website for the book: : Thanks for sending the review along. I'm very glad folks are finding : the book useful. One small point of note: the reference website : requested does indeed exist. I reference it in the preface. All the : links in URL form are posted here: : : http://www.seanconvery.com/nsalinks.html : : There's also some other book related stuff off of the root, : including a sample chapter and a repository for errata as we find : it. : : Thanks again, : : Sean Ido -- =========================================================================== | Ido Dubrawsky, CISSP E-mail: idubraws () cisco com | | | Network Security Architect :|: :|: | VSEC Technical Marketing, SAFE Architecture Team :|||: :|||: | Cisco Systems, Inc. .:|||||||:..:|||||||:. | Silver Spring, MD. 20902 =========================================================================== _________________________________________ ISN mailing list Sponsored by: OSVDB.org - For 15 cents a day, you could help feed an InfoSec junkie!
