Overview

A network security breach (a hack, crack or other invasion) occurs when unauthorized access to the network is achieved, and havoc results. A good defence is an offensive strategy that allows regular testing of a network to reveal the vulnerabilities before a hack learns of them. This text offers step-by-step guidance so that an IT professional may test his/her own network security with customized software. John Chirillo provides readers with detailed information on how to build and operate a reliable security analysis/monitoring system.
