Book Review: Network Perimeter Security

Network Perimeter Security: Building Defense in Depth by Cliff Riggs is a concise and comprehensive book filled with good information about the technologies you can use to protect your network. The concept of layering technologies to provide defense in depth as well as the concept of protecting the network perimeter are both important concepts for network security administrators to be aware of. This book seems a little confused in terms of target audience though- providing too much techie information for a manager or novice, but not enough techie information for the network security administrator to rely solely on this book to implement the technologies. Nevertheless it is a good book in general, but if you're only buying one book I would recommend you keep looking. Book Review: Network Perimeter Security- Building Defense in Depth.
