Product Description

Review
"Stealing the Network: How to Own the Box is a unique book in the fiction department. It combines stories that are false, with technology that is real. While none of the stories have happened, there is no reason why they could not. You could argue it provides a road map for criminal hackers, but I say it does something else; it provides a glimpse into the creative minds of some of today's best hackers, and even the best hackers will tell you that the game is a mental one." - from the foreword by Jeff Moss, President & CEO, BlackHat, Inc.

"...the reader will find this an informative, instructive and even entertaining book." - Managing Risk magazine

Product Description
"Stealing the Network: How to Own the Box" is NOT intended to be a "install, configure, update, troubleshoot, and defend book." It is also NOT another one of the countless Hacker books out there. So, what IS it? It is an edgy, provocative, attack-oriented series of chapters written in a first hand, conversational style. World-renowned network security personalities present a series of 25 to 30 page chapters written from the point of an attacker who is gaining access to a particular system. This book portrays the "street fighting" tactics used to attack networks and systems.

Not just another "hacker" book, it plays on "edgy" market success of Steal this Computer Book with first hand, eyewitness accounts
A highly provocative expose of advanced security exploits
Written by some of the most high profile "White Hats", "Black Hats" and "Gray Hats"
Gives readers a "first ever" look inside some of the most notorious network intrusions

5.0 out of 5 stars Holy cr*ptacular Batmans Underwear..., 8 Oct 2004
By Steffen Hansen "Flerbizky" (Copenhagen, Denmark) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is NOT a book to pick up if you're administering just the smallest of networks connected to the internet. I've gotten massive paranoia from reading it - but wouldn't have missed it for the world. But I also have a feeling that I've managed to tighten things down a bit at my end of the line, so it's also highly inspirational.. And being the nerdy g33k I am, in my world this book now reigns higher than The Dark Tower series.. EXCELLENT reading.. (Where's the 6 stars option ?)

this is a really great read...it may as well be about the stories you hear about on the news they are so similar...can be a bit techie sometimes but if you want to know what really goes on behind the headlines, this is the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars No words can replace how rich and useful this book is!, 23 Jul 2004
A very good and well writen book. You'll find everything under different stories written in a simple way, although you'll need some jargon experience to understand certain words used, but if you have internet connection you can google the word and get it explained.
