The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'LAN : Disaster Prevention and Recovery':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
This is a solid, lucid and superior book which addresses security and disaster issues not only for LANs, but for computer systems in general. The writing is clear. The material is not only practical and based firmly in a common-sense approach, but is founded on a firm grasp of a wide range of technologies, some of them very esoteric indeed. The chapters cover planning, documentation, system reliability, security, backups, power conditioning, resumption planning and plan testing. Appendices give sample plans and policies as well as a resource guide. I was, of course, very interested in the virus section and found it to be far superior to almost anything I have read in a general work (missing mention only of change detection and activity monitoring software). The chapter on power conditioning, as well, is no mere ad for surge protectors, but a thorough and detailed exploration of the subject. I have no hesitation in recommending this work to any LAN administrator. Indeed, I suspect many managers should go through its pages, regardless of their information architecture. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1994
