Customer Reviews

Rating: 4
Summary: Informative
Comment: This is one of the most recent release (in year 2003) in the topics, and it is imformative in technical, procedure wide, and legal consideration.

There are rooms for improvement in structurinng between paragraph and addition of more detailed information. Jumping in the Chapter 7 - Procedures for Collecting and Preserving Evidence:

First area of improvement - Right after the section in Underestanding Volatility of Evidence is Creating a Real-Mode Forensic Book Disk. Heading of each section can be more clear in using numbering. It is a bit confuse when you talk about volatile information and then in the next section in creating Boot Disk that is for inspecting non-volitale information.

Second area of improvement - Regarding importance of evidence preservation, the book does not teach you HOW - e.g. technically using MD5 and procedure wide asking third party and/or suspect to verify information obtained.

Overall, it is a good reference book in knowing computer forensic.

Final word: One thing about the book I like is the inclusion of software version in the CD which is handy for reading it when need.

Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent Book on the Subject of Computer Incident Response
Comment: Incident Response is a must-read book for anyone who has to handle computer security incidents. It is written in an easy-to-read format that even those new to the subject can follow, while providing enough depth and detail to be valuable as a reference book for experienced professionals. The appendix on the provisions of the USA PATRIOT Act and its impact on information security along with the CD containing many useful freeware and trialware software programs are worth the cost of the book in and of themselves. If you are in a position where you need to know how to respond when a computer incident occurs, or if you just want to learn more about this subject this book is a great place to start.

Rating: 5
Summary: Necessary, timely, and on the mark. A must have book.
Comment: Once again, author Douglas Schweitzer takes his candid no-nonsense approach to security issues. Intrusion is at an all time high and finding the right answers can be elusive. That is what gives significant value to this book. It is Concise and pertinent to the issue at hand.
