Simple Security
The book is intended for those relatively new to computers, those that don't consider themselves technically inclined and those that just want to get on with their job. Covering a wide range of subjects, we hope to provide enough information for the typical reader to enjoy secure everyday use of email, the Internet and other applications.
The preview file, SecuritySampler.pdf, can be used to directly access the references online. We'd recommend reading through the book first, then looking at each section in detail, checking the online references where necessary.
Designed to be easy to read, with good sized type and plain layout. Written in plain english as far as possible, considering the subject matter.
Print: $14.58
