The Defending the Kingdom eBook is now just $4. It neatly encapsulates all the best advice found on this site, plus a bit more!
The information on this website will always be free, but I’m betting that many of the 7,000 readers of this site will find it more convenient to get all the best tips in a single book rather than having to search through the 70+ posts in the archive.
However you get your security advice, thanks for reading and making this site a success!
(P.s. Want a free taste of the eBook? Check out the first 5 pages.)

From Wired News blog Threat Level:
Bringing what he sees in the world to ToorCon, infamous security expert Beetle says that the web community — and hackers — are missing the point and mis-estimating the dangers of the web.
The danger lies not in government monitoring, that’s been thoroughly recognized and railed against, Beetle says. It’s what we’re willing to let people do to our stuff so we can get it for free. Google’s autoscrubbing our searches for words to sell us stuff in the future is more dangerous to our privacy and future than pointless government monitoring, he says.
Do people understand the dangers and accept them? Or do they underestimate the dangers, and so never have a chance to work out the costs and benefits?
