| The inter-workings of computer security is often viewed as mysterious; however, nothing could be further from the truth. Computer Security is Common Sense is a series of simple to follow books, each tackling a separate aspect of computer security. Through use of analogies, these books help associate computer security practices with real life, everyday examples without sacrificing the accuracy of the technical details. These books are perfect for non-technical managers, computer security novices, and systems administrators looking to broaden their knowledge. Every tool has its use and every operating system has its role. Selecting an operating system is a critical decision which can effect the capabilities and security posture of a network for years to come. The Myth of the Secure OS addresses the strengths and weaknesses of the major operating systems, aligning them with common capabilities or computing needs. The goal of this book is not to sway towards one OS or another, but to emphasize that each OS has its own Yin and its own Yang. |
