After digging through countless books on securing and maintaining WinNT/2K servers which are nothing more than rehashes of Microsoft tech notes and other material, this book is a godsend. Most other books seem content in the assumption that the Microsoft security procedures themselves are sufficient, and working within the framework is the best solution. Norberg rather follows the age old security practices of system minimalization and "bare metal" hardenning. For anyone coming from a UNIX background and frustrated with the seeming dependence on "full systems" advocated by most Microsoft security books, this book is just what the doctor ordered. Direct, useful, and enlightening, this book more than lives up to its O'Reilly name. |
