Title: Copyright 2003--This book is ancient!
Review: Amazingly enough this book still has some value--human processes don't change that much. Their incident response examples seem charmingly innocent--like being called to assist a company with a single exchange server or setting a threshold of 5 affected machines. But,unless you're just nostalgic you probably want to stay away.How big a machine do you need to run your tools on? Their specification for a forensics workstation calls for a "High end processor" with "A minimum of 256MB of RAM". (Yes, that's *megabytes* and I'm sure it was a screamer in its day.) And they keep talking about these things called "floppies"... Furthermore, I'm pretty sure their 7 year old tools are going to be pretty hit or miss in terms of their value and I'm guessing that the 7 year old links to web resources are going to be a little spotty.Memo to self--check copyright dates next time.
