Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I used this book together with some tutorial sessions during a lecture course at JCU singapore.The content and the additional material provided was very useful.

⭐If you’re like me, you’re probably getting this as a required text for a college class. This book is not a good one unless you are somewhat advanced in Cryptography – it is covered in jargon and complex diagrams/equations, not to mention that it’s extremely dry.

⭐I use it for school and I liked it

⭐If I didn’t need it for class – I would not have bought this. Very dry. There has to be other books that aren’t as cumbersome.

⭐Decent read for anyone taking on netsec but do not expect vendor-specific detail here (nor should you be).

⭐What can be reviewed about a textbook?

⭐Bought for IT Security studies, very helpful and clear.
