If you are new to network security  dont put this book back on the shelf! This is a great book for beginners and I wish I had access to it many years ago. If youve learned the basics of TCP\/IP protocols and run an open source or commercial IDS  you may be asking Whats next? If so  this book is for you.\" Ron Gula  founder and CTO  Tenable Network Security  from the Foreword \"Richard Bejtlich has a good perspective on Internet securityone that is orderly and practical at the same time. He keeps readers grounded and addresses the fundamentals in an accessible way.\" Marcus Ranum  TruSecure \"This book is not about security or network monitoring: Its about both  and in reality these are two aspects of the same problem. You can easily find people who are security experts or network monitors  but this book explains how to master both topics.\" Luca Deri  ntop.org \"This book will enable security professionals of all skill sets to improve their understanding of what it takes to set up  maintain  and utilize a successful network intrusion detection strategy.\" Kirby Kuehl  Cisco Systems Every network can be compromised. There are too many systems  offering too many services  running too many flawed applications. No amount of careful coding  patch management  or access control can keep out every attacker. If prevention eventually fails  how do you prepare for the intrusions that will eventually happen? Network security monitoring (NSM) equips security staff to deal with the inevitable consequences of too few resources and too many responsibilities. NSM collects the data needed to generate better assessment  detection  and response processesresulting in decreased impact from unauthorized activities. In The Tao of Network Security Monitoring  Richard Bejtlich explores the products  people  and processes that implement the NSM model. By focusing on case studies and the application of open source tools  he helps you gain hands-on knowledge of how to better defend networks and how to mitigate damage from security incidents. Inside  you will find in-depth information on the following areas. The NSM operational framework and deployment considerations. How to use a variety of open-source toolsincluding Sguil  Argus  and Etherealto mine network traffic for full content  session  statistical  and alert data. Best practices for conducting emergency NSM in an incident response scenario  evaluating monitoring vendors  and deploying an NSM architecture. Developing and applying knowledge of weapons  tactics  telecommunications  system administration  scripting  and programming for NSM. The best tools for generating arbitrary packets  exploiting flaws  manipulating traffic  and conducting reconnaissance. Whether you are new to network intrusion detection and incident response  or a computer-security veteran  this book will enable you to quickly develop and apply the skills needed to detect  prevent  and respond to new and emerging threats.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44945252876341,"sku":"ByrdShop_0321246772","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780321246776.jpg?v=1769880042","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-tao-of-network-security-monitoring-beyond-intrusion-detection","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
