This is a great, easy to read and use reference for both non-technical business leaders as well as IT professionals. It is also a great resource for home computer users, and small- to medium-sized businesses who often do not have the resources to hire dedicated security staff. The book covers the entire spectrum of ways in which computer systems can be compromised and attacked, an easy-to-understand description of how the exploits are executed, and, usually lacking in other reference books on this topic, step-by-step instructions for not only how to identify when the hacks occur, but also how to defend against them.

This book is great for beginners, it talks about the ethical hacker and penetration tests. However it also gives out information that can be used for blackhat hacking.

Businesses, red teams, or professional security consultants will find this book as a top 5 reference toward understanding the attack, and a primer in the defense of a network.
For me, a fellow CISSP, Kevin´s book rates up there with Eric Cole´s "Hackers Beware".¤ 6) Paperback Book Hacking For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)) by For Dummies.
