Inhaltsangabe

Analysts agree that computer and network security is one sector in the IT industry that's likely to grow in coming years.

In response to this need, certification vendors such as Cisco, Check Point, and CompTIA have developed a number of certifications that validate expertise in a specific segment of the security market. But before embarking on a comprehensive security certification study program, aspiring IT professionals need a solid foundation in network security fundamentals, and that's exactly what this book provides.
