Chris Brenton covers every aspect of network security, beginning with the identification of security issues, costing of measures to address them, legal aspects, operational and cultural issues, differentiating between attacks, hacks and carelessness, and the degree of effectiveness achievable in practice.
The discussions of the kinds of mishaps and attacks networks are subject to will and should cause network managers and IT directors sleepless nights. It does a good job of demystifying the security issues it raises with examples, analysis and a surprising amount of common sense; pointing out, for example, that security is a business cost--there's no point to a security measure that will cost more than the consequences it's intended to prevent.
While the book discusses security issues in Netware, Unix, NT as well dedicated servers and switches from companies such as Cisco it isn't a security cookbook for these systems. You still need detailed implementation guides for the relevant systems.
This is completely appropriate as Brenton's book is intended to address security issues, not network management per se. However, no network manager's shelf is dressed without it.
