If you are a beginning System or Network administrator, this is a great introductory security book to start with.

The book covers a wide range of security topics with most being based on the Windows OS. It also has a chapter on Linux, and covers networking, web sites, buffer overflows and physical security. Included with each chapter are exercises to reinforce the material, and questions with answers.

Before reading this book, you should have general background knowledge in operating systems and networking. A programming background is not necessary.

As a primer on security, I found this book to be well written and interesting reading.
