Excellent

Nutshell review - The book describes the application of information security in terms of time; protection time, detection time, response time. This is a must read for infosec professionals.

One of the few classics in its field

OK, I admit it! This is another book that should be read alongside Donn Parker and Commander Smith! Excellent and thought provoking. I loved it! The only bad things you could say about it, is Winn's use of storytelling (even if I found it enjoyable and effective), and the shoddy printmanship of the book (unclear pictures and bad illustrations, but that may be Winn's doing again).Regardless of all complaints you may have against it, it needs to be read and understood, as well as being integrated into the curriculum of CISSP and equivalent certifications.

A must have for anyone interested in information security!

It has been said that "form follows function" and in the computer sciences we have had the freedom of sloppy engineering for way to long. It is joked that if builders built buildings the way programmers wrote programs the first woodpecker to come along would destroy civilization. I know that it is for this reason that we have so many problems "securing" anything in the info-sec fields, form is not following function...This book is the only book on my shelf I recommend *everyone* (interested in security) read. It is ground breaking because it starts from scratch and looks at the function and follows with what the form should be. I think this book is a decade ahead of it's time and that until every programmer, consultant, system architect, and info-sec employee read this book and the information becomes ingrained as common sense will security be truly possible in any meaningful way.Most importantly it gives useful information on how to apply this information right now, a decade before we have good competition in the security product market place that will solve this kind of problem. If you plan on doing any kind of intrusion detection, the information in this book must be at your finger tips... It is the only way to measure how well solutions deliver, and to create meaningful metrics for measuring information security solutions. The book has a certain prose about it that keeps on building on the previous idea, and hence seems to be repeating itself, however it is a short book that everyone from CEO to "in the trench guy" can read. Keep reading and thinking about what is being presented to you however and I think you will find as I did that the book is way ahead of it's time and you will soon be building a secure infrastructure for your business that you can measure, and justify.
