This book is similar in material to "Hacking: The Art of Exploitation" in that it covers exploitation hacks (reverse engineering, overflows, etc), networking hacks, authentication hacks, and ways to defend. The amount of information in one book is very good. This book covers a wide range of topic but also goes into depth on each area. For example, both wired and wireless topics are explored, client and server, web protocol, sql injection, IDS, forensics, and assembly language based hacks. This is a great book for students and security professionals. The knowledge itself is valuable plus the book is a good value due to its completeness.
