Forwarded from: security curmudgeon <jericho@attrition.org> http://attrition.org/~jericho/works/security/review/book_review.high-tech_crimes_revealed.html High-Tech Crimes Revealed Cyberwar Stories from the Digital Front Steven Branigan ISBN: 0-321-21873-6 Addison-Wesley, Copyright 2005 I found this book just after Christmas (Dec 2005) and grabbed it hoping for a decent read about computer crimes and sociology, backed by real world experience and first hand tales from the 'digital front'. Instead, I got the worst collection of naive and inexperienced crap I have read in a long time. After paying money for this book, I feel as if I have fallen victim to a lame phishing scam. It is important to note that this book is copyright 2005, and says the first printing was in August 2004. It puts the entire book into perspective and quickly makes you question the author's credentials. In fact, if this book wasn't written in the mid to late 90's, shelved for almost ten years, and eventually printed, then Branigan should never claim any affiliation with the computer security industry/community.
