Attacking People through Web Apps (on Linux)

[Pete Herzog <lists () isecom org>]

Hi,

People working with Linux web servers may be interested in noting the
new Hacking Exposed Linux is out. This 3rd edition has been completely
re-written by ISECOM as a project and goes deeply into hacking and
protecting people from web applications on Linux servers.  Since the
focus has to be on Linux, instead of focusing on the many web services
and applications we focused it on the Human side-- attacks against
people-- the various abuses of a website or web app which can lead to
attacks against users. In addition we cover locking down a web service
on a Linux system as well as the entire OS.

You can check it out through the ISECOM website at Amazon:

Sincerely,
-pete.
