My mom always said look it up in the dictionary.,
By D. Bushmiller "dean bushmiller" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dictionary of Information Security (Paperback)
My reply would be, " If I knew how to look it up, I don't need a dictionary" Yes you can find all this stuff on the web even Rob has this book on the web. BUT you cannot get the feel for security terms by just defining one word. Take the time get the dead-tree version. It is worth the few dollars.

Handy But Not Very Exciting,
By Daniel McKinnon "Dan" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dictionary of Information Security (Paperback)
'Dictionary of Information Security' is exactly that, a 200+ page dictionary of technical terms relating to computer security. There's no way to sugarcoat this and make it sound anything more than it is. If you are in the information security field you might find this useful to have on your shelf by your side or as a refresher for those technical tidbits but that's about it. Not a teaching tool, just a short reference book that does what it says it does. For that it gets a thumbs up from me.
