5 Security Books That Have 'Fame' Written In Them

Secrets and Lies: Digital Security in a Networked World

AUTHOR: Bruce Schneier

PUBLISHED: 2000

Schneier, a cryptographer and long-time expert on computer security, has published several books on the topic for nearly 25 years.

In his review of the book on the Palo Alto Networks website, Palo Alto Chief Security Officer and canon committee member Rick Howard calls Secrets and Lies "the perfect book to hand to new bosses or new employees coming in the door who have not been exposed to cybersecurity in their past lives. … Schneier wrote it more than a decade ago, but he talks about a variety of ideas so ahead of their time that they are still relevant today."
