5.0 out of 5 stars Best and most up-to-date Check Point NG Book!!, March 6, 2003

This review is from: CCSE NG: Check Point Certified Security Expert Study Guide (Hardcover)

This book is very well written and all you need to pass the CCSE exam! The sample questions were very helpful in preparing for the test.
The labs are useful as a reference for stuff that I'm doing on my corporate firewalls. The best part is that the book is based on FP3 with references to FP2 and FP1.

Great book! If you are taking CCSE vNG FP3 exam, this book has everything you need. Was able to pass the exam the frist attempt, and there was nothing on the exam that I had not seen in book. In addition, the "CCSE NG: Check Point Certified Security Expert Study Guide" would serve pretty well as a "how-to" reference guide.
