Produktbeschreibungen

Amazon.co.uk

Endorsed by no less than the hacker god, Kevin Mitnick, himself, Hack Proofing Your Network is a collaborative work, with contributions from a dozen or so network security experts, many of whom were prominent in the hacking community until fairly recently. Now these poachers have turned gamekeeper and are selling their expertise to corporate networks anxious to prevent people like them from hacking their systems.

The book is based on the rather shaky premise that you need a thief to catch a thief and so the best way to make sure your network security is up to scratch is to use "real world" hacking techniques to test it. To this end the book covers a wide remit, covering such areas as the hacker psyche, classes of attack, cryptography, buffer overflows, remote attacks, spoofing and viruses. The book is littered with fragments of sample hacking code, backed with URLs for hacking "resources". There is even a line-by-line analysis of the Melissa worm. Unfortunately, while there are plenty of examples of hacking code and tricks, the book is suspiciously light on measures you could take to prevent such attacks.

Overall, the book suffers from a lack of structure, being constructed from a large collection of hacker "nuggets" and this, coupled with the large number of authors makes Hack Proofing a rather bitty concoction, occasionally lacking coherence.

Whether the book will give you useful insights in to tightening security depends on your attitude to "ethical hackers". If you favour the concept, then this book will undoubtedly help you get inside the mind of the hacker and the tools they use. If you don't, then you will view this book as a thinly disguised Hacker's Handbook. --Roger Gann

Too many network administrators depend on the "big sky" principle of network security--they believe that the large number of Internet-connected machines out there will keep black-hat hackers away. Hack Proofing Your Network: Internet Tradecraft points out that statistics are no defense, and that such an attitude is irresponsible. The book shows steps that you can take to harden your resources against attack. Although most of the material in this book isn't up-to-the-minute (how could it be, when the tactics of attackers change daily), you can discourage hackers by implementing the strategies that it describes.

Many antihacking texts assume a fair bit of knowledge, but this one doesn't. Ryan Russell and coauthors explain many terms and concepts, such as traffic sniffing, cryptography, and file differentiation ("diffing"), and the tools that evildoers use to wreak havoc on the systems that they attack--complete with Internet addresses from which you can download them. The book walks you through sample attacks, too, such as hijacking a connection by using a tool called Hunt. Overall, this is a fine introductory-to-intermediate antihacking volume that leads well into more current and advanced resources. You might want to supplement it with two other practical computer-security books: Hacking Exposed catalogues many of the tools that bad guys use, while Network Intrusion Detection helps you analyze security logs and spot attacks in progress. --David Wall

Topics covered:

  • Modes of attack, and means of defending against them
  • Political environment governing software and networking
  • Laws and policies springing from that environment
  • Approaches to the problem of breaking into systems or denying their services to legitimate users
  • Spoofing
  • Sniffing
  • Transmission interception
  • Several other popular tactics

Incomplete, shallow and too diverse 19. Oktober 2000
Von R. van den Berg - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
If you know nothing about hacking, this book might be a good start. However, there are plenty of web sites that will do a better job (and they are free).
The reputation of the authors made me hope for a much more in depth look at hacking techniques. Instead, they touch on most subjects way too lightly, and making several failed attempts in explaining some basic networking concepts.
What I thought to be the most value when reading, was the promise of a website with all the links mentioned in the book. As of today, this site is "under construction" without any useful information at all! (www.internettradecraft.com)
In short, if you want to get a basic feel for what hacking is about, and want to get it without using a webbrowser, read this book. If you're looking to expand your knowledge or get definate answers, look elsewhere.

Good start, well rounded 7. September 2000
Von Keith Tokash - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This book was obviously not meant to inspire any crackers, nor to educate the hardcores. What it does is bring the rest of us up to speed without us having to learn the hard way. While some arrogant hackers/crackers may think that this book is a sissy-handbook, not all of us care to spend endless hours of our precious free time trying to reinvent the wheel.

Having said that, this book covers a lot of ground, and balances the technical details of hacking with the overall picture of what security truly is: a process.

Example-Do you know what a buffer overflow REALLY is? I kind of did, but now I know exactly how it works.

Example2-Why is physical security so important? This is part of the overall process, but it ties directly into the previous example.

My conclusion is that if you work in the field, you should buy the book. This goes for the techie-oriented businessman too, because you'll learn how to cry BS. Not everything you'll read in there will be useful to you, but much of it will be applicable and some things might prevent you from making some really naive decisions (like trusting patches).

Full disclosure *is* the only way 15. August 2000
Von John Talbot - Veröffentlicht auf Amazon.com
Format:Taschenbuch
I'm an experienced system administrator with a very strong background in security, and I was honestly on the fence with regards to full disclosure prior to reading this book. I knew it was necessary for me to know everything to protect my systems, but I was terrified by the thought of the uninitiated being able to by a book or surf the web and then hack my network. But afer reading this book, I really don't think there is any other way. The authors repsonsibly and accurately detail the techniques and tools used to hack into systems, always with an eye towards preventing such catastrophies.
