Summary
Intrusion Detection is a red hot topic in today's security field. We hear stories of compromised or rendered unusable by network attack daily. The majority of the analysts today are not trained to do their work, and often have to learn on their own. This book empowers the reader to analyze and interpret the traces that they are seeing. This book contains information for the "well seasoned" senior intrusion analyst.
