Network Security: A Hacker's Perspective

by Ankit Fadia

Network Security: A Hacker's Perspective will help readers step into the minds of computer criminals so they can predict their moves and stop them before they can strike. Readers become real hacker profilers as they find out the ways in which these attackers can infiltrate their systems, including stealing an identity by obtaining an IP address; gathering information through port scanning, fingerprinting, and sniffing; and attacking password files. Network administrators and recreational users of the Internet alike will learn the right countermeasures to protect sensitive information and ensure that they won't become a defenseless target.
