"Gray Hat Hacking" - Has anyone read this book?
Hello -
I was looking through the IT books today and came across a book published in 2004 called "Grey Hat Hacking", which details the different type vulnerability assessments and penetration testing, with some discussion on tools and defenses against hacking. It looked interesting and I was just wondering if anyone here has a read of it:
ISBN: 0-07-225709-1
From Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/007...lance&n=283155
AO Member Tony Bradley's review - he recommends it btw:

If someone or two or three others have read it as well- was it worth buying or is most of that information available via Google or other sources? If it helps, I'm an IT Auditor that is also charged with performing internal penetration testing. Also - are there other books you have come across that would help me hone my skills as an auditor and pen tester? Always looking for great material.
Thanks in advance!
