Customer Rating:      Summary: Great computer forensics book written by the experts! Comment: OK. What more do you need to know? This book is written by three gentlemen who live, eat and breathe computer incident response & forensics. The fact that they present the information in a well written and easy to follow format is just a bonus! If you're one of those "I wanna do it" types like me, you'll read through the material and then tackle the provided data to see if you can solve the crime. A great starting point for future incident responders and folks who want to know more about computer forensics.
Customer Rating:      Summary: super Comment: Thanks a lot, we are very happy to have this book in our library!
Customer Rating:      Summary: A very good Book. Comment: I took this book because it was told to me by my professor to purchase it.
But after reading its content I feel its really worth buying this book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent Read Comment: This book is written in such a style that is easy to understand, yet technical and detailed enough to maintain your interest and attention all the way through.
The book presents several ways of accomplishing the same tasks in a non-biased, non-vendor-specific way. It explores the use of free, open-source tools as well as commercial offerings, and drills down into forensic analysis of both Windows and Unix/Linux Operating Systems.
The included CD contains actual forensic data and a few tools, which is both interesting and exciting to use while following along with the lessons in the book.
After receiving this book and opening it to the first page, I was almost unable to set it down until I finished it. I received it on a Friday afternoon and I had completed reading it by the end of the weekend. I highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in Computer or Network Security.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This one is a keeper! Comment: As an author and instructor, I tend to be pretty picky about the books I choose to read and use in my classes. The authors present the material in a good logical progression. I especially like that it also provides sample evidence on the DVD. Most of the computer forensic books that currently exist contain mostly theory. This is the first good hands-on text that I have seen.
The authors have captured a good cross section of scenarios and then guide you through each case in-depth, offering practical solutions when faced with obstacles. The content provides methodologies, techniques, and tools that anyone can use. In addition it covers a variety of media such as USB memory and Palm devices.
This is a book that I will definitely keep. It is one of the best forensic investigations books currently on the market and would be a great asset to anyone wishing to enhance their skills.
