Linux Essentials for Cybersecurity (Pearson It Cybersecurity Curriculum) [Rothwell, William, Kinsey, Denise] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Linux Essentials for Cybersecurity (Pearson It Cybersecurity Curriculum) Review: Short answer: It's a thorough treatment of Linux in general and securing Linux using tools available on every modern distribution. If you don't know where to start; start here. If you're like me and have been around these issues for years but haven't needed to cover all the bases on a real production deployment then you will find the missing pieces here as well. Long answer: I was a bit surprised at starting from the standpoint of no Linux experience for a book on a subject that typically demands a good bit of experience, but as I kept reading, I actually appreciated looking at the basics from a different viewpoint. The writing style is concise but not boring. Considering that I read the bulk of the book, start to finish only skimming sections that are part of my daily Linux life, I can only conclude that I liked the writing style. To be fair, I do have an actual need to deploy and lock down a web server myself (as opposed to outsourcing it) so I was motivated to cover my bases. This book covers a lot of ground and points to a good number of resources on the subjects that are beyond the scope of an essentials book. I think this book also did a good job of picking well proven tools. As with everything Linux, there are MANY tools to choose from and there will always be a 'latest and best tool' for every problem you are solving. Doing a quick search on the more established tools leads you to the mainstream industry practices straight away. It also extends the useful life of the book as a solid reference.
