The Honeynet Project: Our Book

[an error occurred while processing this directive]

Know Your Enemy, 2nd Edition is a total re-write from the original, resulting in over 700 pages of detailed information and examples. We cover everything from how to deploy the latest honeynet technology, to analyzing the data they collect and what we have learned. Each chapter is written by individuals who specialize in that area. For example, forensic material is written by Brian Carrier and Rob Lee, profiling by social pychologist Max Kilger, and legal issues by Richard Salgado of the Department of the Justice. Included is a companion CDROM that has the tools, data, and examples for you to use and learn from. All proceeds from the book help fund honeynet research. Read reviews by IEEE Security, LinuxJournal, Richard Bejtlich, Thomas Duff, Robert Slade, and Ben Rothke!

Corrections:

Chp 16:

Eric S. Raymond was misspelled twice on page 507 (apologies Mr. Raymond :)

Chp 20:

On page 664, Figure 20-18 is incorrect, it was accidently reversed. The correct image should look like this. An alternative is to drink copious amounts of beer before analyzing the image in the book.
