Security for the Novice,
By Water Monkey "Marc B." (Santa Clarita, Ca.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: PC Confidential: Secure Your PC from Snoops, Spies, Spouses, Supervisors, and Credit Card Thieves (With CD-ROM) (Paperback)
This is a good book if you are new to computing and the Internet. If you are worried that everytime you turn on your computer someone is watching, this book may scare you more. Either way, this book will give some good advice regarding security.Unfortunately, the book does not present a balanced view when it comes to whether or not you should implement most of the measures. It seems a little common sense is more valuable than many of these security measures. I wish they had some statistical backing as to the chances of anyone of us becoming a victim. But still, this is a good book for the laymen who hears all these buzz words (viruses, cyberthief, etc), and doesn't know what they mean. This will help anyone get a clear understanding of the possible threats to your computer and your information |
