Rating: - Security+ Book
This is a pretty good book. I'm taking the course at a Community College and bought the book online since it wasn't available in the bookstore. Material is very thorough in covering subject matter. It is presented in a way that is easy to understand.
Rating: - Great Product from a great seller!
Product arrived on time and in condition stated. Would buy from this seller again.

My biggest issue is that the lab material presented is woefully out of date, since this book was published in 2004. The principles of network security do not change radically in two years' time, but software ... Read More
