by Matt Curtin

An Internet security expert's new book is an indispensable resource for both novice and expert security professionals alike, providing indispensable information regarding all facets of understanding, creating, and maintaining secure Internet systems. Curtin instructs readers on how to implement a "big picture" security strategy, preferable over the narrow-minded "patching" strategy so commonplace today.


From the publisher

Although the very nature of electronic security makes it such a rapidly evolving beast that at times it seems impossible to keep up with, the underlying concepts that make it possible for security professionals to effectively prevent the attack and indeed loss of control over their informational systems remain consistent. Internet Security expert Matt Curtin's new book, Building Trust: Online Security For Developers, serves as a definitive guide for attaining a thorough understanding of those concepts integral to successfully implementing the security policy and framework of an electronic information system.
