Great resource on Win 2003 security (not just as a study guide)Mar 04, 2010
This book is a great guide to Windows Server 2003 security for anyone responsible for managing Windows 2003 networks. The explanations are clear, concise, and thorough. Every key topic includes one or more real-world examples and recommended best practices, balanced with solid, common-sense advice that acknowledges the different needs for different types of implementations or environments.
I can't speak to its usefulness as a study guide, since that's not what I bought it for, but highly recommended for anyone who needs to learn how to implement security properly in a real-world Windows Server 2003 setting.

Just Amazing...Feb 17, 2009
Wow is all I can say!
What a book. If you are wanting to prepare for either 70-298 and 70-299 this is the resource for you.
The book is loaded with invaluable information, but it is written in a way that you don't simply get lost amoungst the pages.
If only Tony Northrup would author all MS Press books.
I heard rave reviews about it, but reading it myself was very enjoyable (considering how enjoyable IT textbooks are to read)
The wealth of knowledge covers all components of Windows Security.
Would Highly Recommend.

The BEST TRAINING KIT.Mar 20, 2007
People interested in buying this book must know it is out of date. It was released in the age of Windows Server 2003, without service pack one. So it does not cover WSUS, but SUS. It also does not contain information about SP1 improvements and now SP2, however, it is a book about planning and implementing security strategies, which makes it a book above the time.
If you have money and are interest in security, or if you are intended to pass the exam, buy this book.
The text is clear and comprehensive. The content is pretty amazing which demonstrates de knowledgement of the author about what he writes. Such knowledgement is provenient from his experience working with Windows in exposed environments.
This is not only a theoretical guide of security, but also a practical one. The excercises hep you to understand and record it in your mind.
Finally, buy this book.

A must...Aug 21, 2006
I haven't read this yet. I'm still going through the XP book, but if this one is even close, this book is a must. An easy read and well laid out. The accompanying CDs are very beneficial also.
 Excellent guideFeb 14, 2006
Any book from Tony is probably going to be good. This book is no exception. It is very well written and organized. It covers all aspects of Windows Server 2003 security. It is not quite comprehensive as you'll need the earlier 2003 Server books (or know those topics well enough) to fully cover the test. It includes good chapter summaries and practice labs. This book will also be useful to you as a reference after you have passed the exam.
