Review of The Rootkit Arsenal Posted

Posted on 12:15 PM by Unknown
Amazon.com just posted my five star review of The Rootkit Arsenal by Bill Blunden. I received this book last year but didn't get a chance to finish it until this week, thanks to several long plane flights. From the review:

Disclaimer: Bill mentions me and my book "Real Digital Forensics" on pages xxvi and 493. He sent me a free review copy of his book.

"Wow." That summarizes my review of "The Rootkit Arsenal" (TRA) by Bill Blunden. If you're a security person and you plan to read one seriously technical book this year, make it TRA. If you decide to really focus your attention, and try the examples in the book, you will be able to write Windows rootkits. Even without taking a hands-on approach, you will learn why you can't trust computers to defend themselves or report their condition in a trustworthy manner.
