Customer Reviews & Comments
I used this book for CCNA Security certification. The book itself was fun to read and chapters on encryption and Digital Signatures were well written. However, this book fails to cover all the topics that Cisco has identified for this exam.
1. Zone-based Firewall in IOS was lightly mentioned in the book but there is no in-depth coverage.
2. Chapter 12 on IPsec VPN was the worst chapter. It seems it was put up together in a rush. I had to use other books for this specific topic. This chapter was a big disappointment.
3. SSL was not covered at all while asymmetrical encryption was discussed.
Overall, it'll be a great book if author can improve it with a new edition.
