The Virtual Bookcase Reviews of 'Lan Times Guide to Security and Data Integrity':

Reviewer Rob Slade wrote:
Now I do agree that backups are important. Always make a backup. Make several backups. Make redundant backups. (There's no such thing, if it saves your data.) Make generational backups. In fact, you should probably go and make a backup right now, and read this review later. Back so soon? OK. Anyway, having said all that, I *still* don't understand why the exhortation to make a backup takes up more than a third of the total space of a book on security. The remaining material is similarly pedestrian, although not unsound. The chapter on viruses is the usual low standard, while the content on encryption is surprisingly good (though not really technical). Users, and particularly network administrators, who add to their security on the basis of this book will not be sorry. They may, however, be unpleasantly surprised at some point in the future. copyright Robert M. Slade, 1996
