Computer Security for the Home and Small Office by Thomas Greene

* Does not assume prior knowledge, yet goes beyond introductory level * Patient, step-by-step instruction with a minimum of jargon * Recognizes the increasing use of home systems and public systems by corporate users (telecommuters).

From the reviews:

"Thomas Greene provides the home and SOHO user, and the work-at-home corporate user, a thorough, realistic assessment of the security and privacy risks they face, to instruct them in making their machines and networks unattractive targets for attack and to limit the damage an intrusion or other security snafu can causeIt is a general security and privacy handbook primarily for Window users, but ... accommodates Linux users with occasional boxed tips and sidebars." (it-expert, Issue no. 48, 2004)

Thomas Greene is a name to look out for. He writes with beauty, passion, and truth. Rich in detail, with a host of characters that already loom large in American history, it is a quiet masterpiece. . . . Big themes, themes still being played out on the stages of America and the Caribbean, run deeply and quietly throughout. The characters are real, maybe people you know, but most of all, the story and the writing run true.
