Customer Reviews

Very Good book

I liked the book, It covers in detail all the conceptual stuff. It also has a lot of hands on exercise. I passed my exams consulting this book. Recommended.

University of Houston-Downtown Student

I am a student at the University of Houston-Downtown. The author of this book is my professor. This course at my university is a Senior level course. However, the format inwhich this book is written gives even a novice a clear understanding of what Security Design is and how it is implemented. I was not scared out by the topic of Security Design. The course I'm taking only requires Introduction to Computers as a prerequisite. The book is very thorough and well-written. In addition, it is easy to follow and offers great Real Life Projects. It's a great start for anyone who wants to get an indepth grasp of Windows 2000 Security Design.

Gets the job done

This book covers everything that is necessary for the exam. It was pretty well organized, and covers everything in enough depth to answer exam questions. The only thing missing is the end of chapter "cram outline" - something to stuff into your brain just before the exam.The book did not always incorporate Microsoft's guidance on design issues - what's really included on the exam. I found that the slide decks from Tech Ed (find the one on CA's!) did a better job preparing me for the exam. This exam requires a lot of real world experience - anyone with a CISSP certification should well.The CD has only a few sample questions (mostly not on security), but provides access to the web site for the additional questions. The CD does duplicate the exam format, which is substantially different than the old exams. The CD software crashed with Dr. Watson errors on an NT Workstation, so it took several tries to get through the practice exams.
