1. 3/5

   En halvbra bok.

   Denna bok tar upp grunderna inom IT-säkerhet. Det som är bra med boken är just detta, att den ger en övergripande introduktion i ämnet. När det gäller de negativa åsikterna om boken så tyckte jag främst att vissa delar beskrivs väldigt vagt. Om man inte har tidigare kunskap i ämnet så är man nästan tvungen att stundtals antingen finna mer information på 'nätet' eller söka kompletterande fakta i en annan bok. Är man inte bevandrad inom matematik och då främst inom den diskreta delen så kanske vissa partier inom kryptografi kan vara svåra att ta sig igenom. Därför får boken ett medelmåttigt betyg av mig. Finns betydligt bättre och mer pedagogiska böcker men nackdelen är då att de kostar dubbelt så mycket. Men det kanske det kan vara värt.
