Review:

From the reviews:

"This book focuses on educating readers on the security problems that are likely to be encountered. ... Overall, this is a well-written text that will provide readers with a solid foundation in information security. ... it would also be appropriate as an introductory text for practitioners entering the field and for providing background and business context of security-related business issues for nontechnical managers." (W. T. Neumann, ACM Computing Reviews, May, 2009)

“This excellent book by Joseph Migga Kizza is very welcome. The author steers ... to give a thorough, complete and very readable guide to the subject. ... the book is well structured and presented – offering the basis of a strong balanced course. ... stands by itself as a valuable guide. ... Who is it for? A very good core text for an undergraduate course in network security, and valuable for any IT professional needing to refresh his or her understanding in this area ... .” (Times Higher Education, Issue viii, December, 2009)
