Hacker News Reader

It’s very 101 but covers sensible topics in a sensible order but yeah, lacks a lot of depth.

If you’re looking for a genuinely awesome introduction to the topic I’d recommend this lecture series https://youtube.com/@securityengineering1350?feature=shared

Which accompanies this book https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/book.html

Wow I had no idea this was on YouTube.

This book is the one I always recommended for someone getting started in security.

It’s probably the best book on the topic I’ve ever come across. It’s just an incredibly good mix of practical and approachable and does a great job of teaching you how to think on your own two feet about security which I think is one of the most important aspects.

Thanks, didn't know there were lectures on YouTube, too!

Consider what audience it is for.

Non technical management.

It is a basic introduction for free, there is not much to recommend or not.

If you have basic knowledge on security and topics listed there - it is waste of time. If not then not.

It's the Windows of security. You get to peak and that's about it.
