Hi Trevor,

"Professional RedHat 9 Linux Secrets" by Naba Barkakati has an excellent chapter 22 pg 648 for literature on how to go abt System and Network security.

There is a point to point explanation on the foll topics

1. Learning a security test methodology. 2. Understanding Computer security audits. 3. A review on all security testing tools. 4. Performing risk analysis. 5. Establishing a security policy.

along with the ususal encryption e.t.c.

If any novice (like me) is attempting a go @ Network and System security, this one is worth a dekko.

And for experts I suggest it proves as a handbook.
