Summary: Excellent Content
Comment: I think this book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in Windows 2000 security. The book is well written, and more detailed than some of the other books that I have seen, and it can easily be used as both a study guide and a desk reference. I passed the exam with real world experience and this book, and I would recommend it to anyone.

Summary: Great study guide, but perhaps not the best one!
Comment: Windows 2000 is a much more secure product than most competing operating systems - if configured right. (Unfortunately, more networks out there are being managed by admins from the "point-and-click" school of systems/network administration.)

This book is a good study guide. However - and this is a trait of many MS Press Study Guides, particularly for the Design tests - they don't have detailed case studies, the kind you see on the real tests.

Coverage of some topics like SMB Signing, Firewalls, etc. is adequate for the test. Proxy Server coverage is overkill - it's a redundant product, and I didn't see its relevance to the test. Being a MS Press book for a MS test, the book is not obiviously not critical of MS products - need to pick up a book like "Hacking Windows 2000 Exposed" - [Joel Scambray & Stuart McClure, ISBN: 0072192623, Osborne McGrawHill] to get that perspective.

Overall, a good book (and a good test - 70-220) to complete your MCSE with and get a more-or-less Microsoft-centric view of Windows 2000 network security. Does give a good overview of most Windows 2000 security features.

Summary: Great Book!
Comment: This is a very easy book to read. The information contained within is very good and the case studies are great too.

Windows 2000 Security is a big topic - and this book covers most of it well. Good enough for the exam.

Buy it!
