Reviews

This is a very well prepared and argumented book. -Information Security Bulletin This book is sober, well researched and well written. The authors completely avoid the sensationalism that is almost a trademark when it comes to media treatment of cyber-crime - and they must be forgiven for riding their political hobby-horses here and there, after all, facts should be presented so as to engender debate. -Information Security Bulletin Highly recommended -please read it, give it to your boss and your MP! -Information Security Bulletin Well-researched and detailed, the book is highly readable, and it will hold the attention of everyone from the professional security manager and the corporate executive to the casual reader. The information, sources, and statistics in this book are invaluable to any security manager who needs to sell management on the need for and process of protecting electronic assets, digital intellectual property, and proprietary information. -Security Management In Netspionage: The Global Threat To Information, William Boni and Gerald Kovacich draw upon their many years of professional experience in corporate security and intelligence to describe and address Internet-based threats to information security. Very highly recommended, essential reading for anyone charged with corporate, government, or personal information security in this age of cyberspace hackers, terrorists, and espionage, Netspionage is a very practical and experience-based guide to the evolution of information collection and how to best protect and secure information from unwarranted and criminal attempts to access and corrupt corporate records, databases, projects, and trade secrets. - Midwest Book Review Bill Boni and his co-author have been writing together for years and it shows. The book is smooth and informative. The book is worth reading. - Info Security News Netspionage makes fascinating reading. It also has a lot to offer in the facts and experience departments. Boni and Kovacich have been around a long time and have been to many places and done a number of things. I'm glad they've chosen to write books such as this, thereby helping us to understand the risks that we have to live with daily in the computer and Internet world - Info Security News

A unique contribution to an area of growing concern: the vulnerability of our information infrastructure. Netspionage offers both practical and theoretical insights into the global threat. -Dr. John W. King, Baldwin-Wallace College
