http://www.isecpartners.com), Himanshu was the Technical Director for @stake's San Francisco security practice, a leader in application and network security. His professional experience includes application programming, infrastructure security, and secure product design with an emphasis on storage risk assessment.
Himanshu is considered to be an industry expert in storage security. He has been published in major journals, magazines, and news articles regarding his storage security research. Himanshu has been invited to speak at several security and storage conferences in the United States and in Asia, such as Black Hat and Storage Networking World. Although specializing in SAN and NAS security, Himanshu's research includes storage technologies such as Fibre Channel, iSCSI, NFS, and CIFS as well as storage devices such as Fibre Channel switches, host bus adapters, storage controllers, iSCSI initiators, NAS filers, iSNS servers, NAS gateways, and encryption appliances. Himanshu has also written several tools for storage security assessment, including the iSCSI CHAP Password Tester and the Storage Port Scanner.
Himanshu currently has a patent pending on a storage design architecture that he co-developed with other professionals (U.S. Patent Serial No. 10/198,728). The patent is a security design for Fibre Channel storage networks. Himanshu has also published two other books, including Storage Networks: The Complete Reference, the "Security Considerations" chapter (McGraw-Hill/Osborne), and Implementing SSH: Strategies for Optimizing the Secure Shell (Wiley Publishing). Furthermore, Himanshu has also published two security white papers, including "Securing Intellectual Property" (http://www.atstake.com/research/reports/acrobat/atstake_storage_networks.pdf).

Customer Reviews & Comments
So far the content is good, but the editing is so bad that it leaves the book almost unreadable. I understand there may a language issue, but give me a break, I am paying $40.00 for a hard cover, professional book, written in english and published by a well known and respected publisher. I believe I should be able to reasonably expect that the grammar is correct and blatant typos are removed - this book looks more like a draft than a final copy. Some sentences are so bad they make no sense, which makes reading the book challenging since you have to skim over the nonsense to extract the useful information. I gave it a 3 for the content, I would give it a 1 for readability and quality. I will be asking Addison Wesley for my money back on this one.
