CWSP Guide to Wireless Security 1st Edition

I had to get this book for my wireless security class. It was easy to read and follow. I was happy with it, as far as the material it covered. My teacher, is actually a Network Security professional working in the field and he said it was a good book, too. He had the book chosen for him by the school.

I am catching up on reviews I bought this thing years ago but it was good. I think I bought it as it was a needed text book in 2007

Had to have this for a class. Really this was NOT that great a book.

Contained a lot of useful information. It is not hard to read, but not easy to understand either. Bottom line this book got me through the course with a B+.

Like how the information is presented throughout the book. Easy to read and contains good images. Many essential terms/subjects and a very good book for anyone wanting to learn about wireless networks and security.

This book is easy to follow (if you are accustomed to I/T acronyms) and quite detailed.

This is a great textbook if you are teaching or taking a class in this subject area. Ciampa is easy to read - follow - understand and helps the reader to understand the important points in the field. Looking forward to the next revision...this is an area where changes and developments are almost constant! I wish that Ciampa would write an MIS Intro Textbook too. The titles in that area all stink and we would all benefit from this writing style and authoring ability.
