• Web-Site Sensitivity to Privacy Concerns 0 - Web-Site Sensitivity to Privacy Concerns: Collecting Personally
  Identifiable Information and Passing Persistent Cookies by Bill Helling, First Monday, ol.3 No.2 - February 2nd. 1998 .
  A
  study of 100 popular Web sites by the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) determined a
  baseline figure for the appearance of privacy policies as well as for use of visitor registration and
  cookies. The present study examined the same sites six months later in order to establish any changes
  in patterns of usage. This examination suggests that the Web has become more sensitive to the privacy
  concerns of its users while, at the same time, increasingly resorting to the employment of
  privacy-threatening registration and cookies.
• Practical Unix and Internet Security 0 - Simson Garfinkel, Gene Spafford. Practical Unix & Internet Security is on its second edition, and its
  maturity shows. To call this highly readable book comprehensive is an
  understatement. The breadth is vast, from fundamentals (definitions of
  computer security; the history of Unix) and commonsense but
  little-observed security basics (making backups; physical and personnel
  security; buggy software) to modern software (NFS, WWW, firewalls) and
  the handling of security incidents. The section on users and passwords
  alone is 21 pages long--and worth every page.

  and Distributed Objects, Vitek, J., Purdue University and
  Jensen, C.D., O'Reilly Institute, Dublin, Ireland,
