Review of Inside Cyber Warfare Posted

January 20th, 2010 admin

Amazon.com just posted my three star review of Jeff Carr’s Inside Cyber Warfare . From the review : Jeff Carr is a great digital security intelligence analyst and I’ve been fortunate to hear him speak several times. We’ve also separately discussed the issues he covers in Inside Cyber Warfare (ICW). While I find Jeff’s insights very interesting and valuable, I think his first book could have been more coherent and therefore more readable. I believe Jeff should write a second edition that is more focused and perhaps more inclusive. Copyright 2003-2009 Richard Bejtlich and TaoSecurity (taosecurity.blogspot.com and www.taosecurity.com)
