There are many ways that a potential attacker can intercept information, or learn more about the sender, as the information travels over a network. Silence on the Wire uncovers these silent attacks so that system administrators can defend against them, as well as better understand and monitor their systems.
Silence on the Wire dissects several unique and fascinating security and privacy problems associated with the technologies and protocols used in everyday computing, and shows how to use this knowledge to learn more about others or to better defend systems. By taking an indepth look at modern computing, from hardware on up, the book helps the system administrator to better understand security issues, and to approach networking from a new, more creative perspective. The sys admin can apply this knowledge to network monitoring, policy enforcement, evidence analysis, IDS, honeypots, firewalls, and forensics.

So much for the days of trusting everyone on-line to use software in the way that it was intended. Now the stakes are much higher, and attacking systems can be a profitable activity for those so inclined. To protect yourself, you need to understand the wide range of vulnerabilities. Reading Hacking Exposed (5th Edition) by Stuart McClure, Joel Scambray, and George Kurtz goes a long way towards getting you prepared.
Contents:
Part 1 - Casing the Establishment: Footprinting; Scanning; Enumeration
Part 2 - System Hacking: Hacking Windows; Hacking Unix; Remote Connectivity and VoIP Hacking
Part 3 - Network Hacking: Network Drives; Wireless Hacking; Firewalls; Denial of Service Attacks
Part 4 - Software Hacking: Hacking Code; Web Hacking; Hacking the Internet User
Part 5 - Appendixes: Ports; Top 14 Security Vulnerabilities
Hacking Exposed follows a consistent format in covering areas subject to misuse and attack. They name the type of attack or information gathering technique and give it a risk rating based on popularity, simplicity, and impact. Following an explanation of the particular area, they follow up with a countermeasure section to help the reader understand how this type of attack or exploit can be mitigated. That format scores high on my practicality scale because you can immediately make changes to secure your environment. It's not as if they just spell out the doom and gloom and leave you to fend for yourself.

Indispensable as both a router configuration guide and a preparation tool for the CCNP BSCI exam, CCNP Practical Studies: Routing will prepare you for the exam and give you the hands-on experience to apply your knowledge on the job. CCNP Practical Studies: Routing provides you with routing and configuration information from IP basics to advanced routing concepts and protocols, such as BGP and IS-IS, which is the newest addition to the BSCI exam. Each chapter focuses on a specific routing technology or protocol with a battery of scenarios and practical exercises that you can either configure using your home, work, or remote-access lab equipment or follow along by reviewing the book's example tasks. The five lab scenarios in each chapter serve to challenge your understanding of the chapter topics and measure your aptitude as a CCNP candidate, while providing concrete examples of the challenges faced in real-world configuration.
CCNP Practical Studies: Routing provides you with practical information on all of the important concepts central to the CCNP Routing exam, including basic and advanced BGP and OSPF, EIGRP, route reflectors, IP routing principles, and IS-IS. Begin with basic lab scenarios that cover displaying and analyzing IP routing tables and using show and debug commands. Then graduate to more advanced lab scenarios, such as routing between a classful and a classless network; configuring VLSM; and working with multihomed BGP and connections to ISPs. Lab scenarios at the end of the book take you step-by-step through route optimization and redistribution. This book also contains a bonus CCIE®-level lab, which takes you beyond the professional level labs and onto the next step in becoming a hands-on routing expert.
