In these days of super efficiency, support workers who can fix networks and PC’s, and give ongoing solutions to users, are essential in every sector of the workplace. Due to the progressively multifaceted levels of technological advances, more and more competent professionals are required to look after the smooth operation of functions we need to be sure will work effectively.

Being at the forefront of the leading edge of new technology gives you the best job satisfaction ever. You personally play your part in defining the world to come. We’ve only just begun to get an inclination of how technology will influence everything we do. Technology and the web will significantly alter the way we regard and interrelate with the world as a whole over the coming decades.

If money is high on your wish list, you’ll be happy to know that the usual remuneration for most men and women in IT is considerably higher than with most other jobs or industries. The need for certified IT specialists is certain for a good while yet, thanks to the constant expansion in the technology industry and the huge deficiency that we still have.

With all the options available, does it really shock us that a large percentage of trainees get stuck choosing the job they will enjoy. Flicking through a list of IT job-titles is a complete waste of time. The vast majority of us don’t even know what our good friends do at work - so we’re in the dark as to the intricacies of a particular IT career. Arriving at the right choice can only grow from a detailed study of many different factors:

* Your personal interests and hobbies - often these point towards what things will provide a happy working life.

* Is your focus to get certified because of a particular motive - for example, do you aim to work based from home (being your own boss?)?

* Is your income higher on your priority-scale than other factors.

* Getting to grips with what typical career areas and sectors are - and what makes them different.

* Having a proper look at how much time and effort you’ll make available.

Raymond Smith (McGraw Hill) ~ WIFI Home Networking

This 347-page book details how to build a wireless network for your home. WiFi is short for "wireless fidelity," the radio frequency technology used to connect computers.

Step by step, Smith outlines everything from the history of WiFi and the benefits of a wireless network to choosing the right equipment and setting up the network. The book, which sells for $29.95 and includes a CD version, is aimed primarily at small-office/home-office users. (Sorry, the CD is not included in this release).

There are several advantages of a wireless network, said Smith, who found in researching the book that more than 20 million U.S. households have more than one computer. With a WiFi home network, several computers can share the same high-speed wireless Internet connection and the same printer. If you have a laptop computer, you can work anywhere in the house or even the back yard -- because there are no wires to trip over.

Wireless networks make it easy to share files between computers and remotely control one computer with another computer. And, homeowners don't have to knock holes in walls like they would when running cable for a wired network.

Smith said a wireless network makes working from home easier and more productive. Real estate agents, for example, can connect a WiFi camera to their computer and show out-of-town home buyers photos of houses, and a salesperson could sit in their home office and use the technology to video conference with field engineers.

How it happened
In the last few months, interest in wireless networking has taken off. In addition to being a useful tool for home offices, wireless networks are cropping up in coffee shops, airports and hotels.

"Ray has a real knack of seeing things before they become popular," said Jade, who works for Verizon's DSL division. "... A lot of families have more than one computer, and (WiFi) is a way to get them to talk to each other. It's the next logical step."

Although Smith never wrote a book before, his longtime friend David Leathers, a Videography magazine editor and president of Eye Square Productions, a video and film production company in Culver City, didn't hesitate to recommend Smith when McGraw-Hill was looking for a WiFi writer.

"I knew he knew the subject matter because he had been directly involved in it a very long time," said Leathers, who has written technical books for McGraw-Hill. "I've not been particularly impressed with some of the technical writing I see. Some of it looks like somebody took some downloads from the Net, some press releases and rescrambled it and then called it an article. But I knew Ray would take it seriously and do original work on it." Smith's serious work-ethic impressed his editor at McGraw-Hill. "He did a great job of researching and getting enough information from the vendors," said Judy Bass, senior editor with McGraw-Hill.

Smith accepted criticism without complaint and quickly learned the style preferred by McGraw-Hill's Professional Book Group, which publishes hundreds of titles a year. "He really went out and learned about the market and in the process marketed himself really well," Bass said. Unlike many how-to technical books, Smith writes in a manner understandable by both novices and tech-savvy readers. The book is sprinkled with interesting tidbits. For instance, the first wireless communication was in 1880 when Alexander Graham Bell invented the photophone, which used a beam of light to carry a voice message between buildings in Washington, D.C.

Network Intrusion Detection,3 Ed

Network Intrusion Detection,3 EdStephen Northcutt, Judy Novak, "Network Intrusion Detection,3 Ed"
Sams; 3 ed | 2002 | ISBN: 0735712654 | 512 pages | PDF | 3,8 MB

Network Intrusion Detection: An Analyst's Handbook explains some of what you need to know to prevent unauthorized accesses of your networked computers and minimize the damage intruders can do. It emphasizes, though, proven techniques for recognizing attacks while they're underway. Without placing too much emphasis (or blame, for that matter) on any operating system or other software product, author Stephen Northcutt explains ways to spot suspicious behavior and deal with it, both automatically and manually.

The case studies, large and small, are the best part of this book. Northcutt opens with a technical brief on the methods used by Kevin Mitnick in his attack upon Tsutomu Shimomura's server. In documenting that famous attack, Northcutt explains SYN flooding and TCP hijacking with clarity and detail: readers get a precise picture of what Mitnick did and how Shimomura's machine reacted. A former security expert for the U.S. Department of Defense, Northcutt explains how a system administrator would detect and defeat an attack like Mitnick's. Another case study appears later in the book, this one in the form of a line-by-line analysis of a .history file that shows how a bad guy with root privileges attacked a Domain Name System (DNS) server. Reading Northcutt's analysis is like reading a play-by-play account of a football match. Network Intrusion Detection is one of the most readable technical books around. --David Wall

Topics covered: Catching intruders in the act by recognizing the characteristics of various kinds of attacks in real time, both manually and with the use of filters and other automated systems; techniques for identifying security weaknesses and minimizing false security alarms.
