Negative Positive
Title: Not current
Review: Having studied 5 other texts in preparation for the set of exams that are based on security I can honestly say that the having current information is very important. This text was published in 2002. Much has changed in technology in the last 10 years. Although some of the software described inside are still in use, it is necessary to consider this something other than a genuine guide for passing the exam. This publication can be used to point you in the right direction but it will not prepare you for the exam because of the ubiquitous nature of the contents. I found this fact to be a deal breaker for me. I am using other texts to study from and the fact is I gained very little from reading this book. That being said It was well written and was probably awesome 10 years ago.
Is the review positive or negative?
