5 out of 5 stars A must have for investigators and attorneys advising corporate clients   August 17, 2008
This book is a must have for attorneys and investigators dealing with corporations victimized by internet criminals looking to steal the keys to the digital vault. It is the most complete treatment of the legal and investigative issues facing forensic investigators and corporate victims in determining the origins of the attack as well as its intent. Also, unlike most works in this area it provides analysis of the regulatory schemes both domestic and international which impact the nature and extent of these investigations. A must have resource.


5 out of 5 stars soup to nuts   August 13, 2008
I had been searching for a reference guide to help my company deal with some network anomalies and was recommended this book from a colleague.

Pros: Let me begin first by saying this is a very down-in-the-dirt detailed book and has certainly earned its spot on my desk. The book shows you not only how to pick your malware apart (I'm all about details and am the type of person that will want to know exactly what a piece of code did), but also how you could use the information you find to prosecute those pesky haxors. Like "uke92," I also liked the "alternative tools text boxes," as it allows me to play/shop around with all the tools available out there.

Cons:I would have liked to see this book broken up into two as I deal primarily with Windows systems. That way, I might have saved a few bucks. Other than that, can't wait to see what these guys put out next.



5 out of 5 stars Remarkable   August 13, 2008
With over 10 years in IT, I constantly look for quality reference materials to stay current. This is, without question, the most complete and readable malware book I have found. The examples and illustrations are direct and on point, allowing even those with less technical experience to understand the investigative process, while remaining highly relevant to seasoned IT professionals. Unlike most other work, this work provides the insight of the legal process that can only be gained from first hand experience. The author clearly has set the standard for computer forensics guides.


5 out of 5 stars Simply a Must   August 12, 2008
This book is an absolute must for anyone who is interested in malware forensics. This book is phenomenally detailed, and provides a step by step process to break down the malware, and get an amazing analysis from it. This book takes the reader into the mind of the author of the malicious code, and shows you how the code is supposed to act. This book is an absolute must for anyone who seeks to further their knowledge about investigating malicious code.


5 out of 5 stars A Comprehensive Guide   August 9, 2008
This book is an invaluable resource for understanding how to respond to malware incidents for both Windows and Linux based systems. In a step-by-step, case scenario based approach, the authors do a great job of guiding the reader from live response forensics, to memory analysis to "post-mortem forensics," and all the way through the analysis of the suspect code. Each chapter covers a variety of tools in-depth during the case scenario, and offers the reader plenty of alternative tools in text-boxes, which I particularly like. Although the book is dense with material and will certainly be my "go-to" desk reference for malware incidents, it is also an intriguing and entertaining read that I highly recommend.
