"Surviving the High-Tech Interview" - MCP Magazine is a great organization to work with. I wrote this article after I'd been on a series of tech interviews. Click here to read it.
 
 

"Sun Certified System Administrator for Solaris 8 Study Guide (Exam 310-011 & 310-012)" - I had a great time working on this book. I did all the technical editing, wrote the outline, glossary, introduction and most of the chapters. It was published by Syngress Media, a division of McGraw-Hill.

Introduction

Chapter 1 - Understanding System Concepts
 

"Hack Proofing Solaris 8" - This was another book I worked on for Syngress Media. Since it's not written as a study guide for a certification test, I had much more control over the content. I was one of the authors as well as the Technical Editor.  The asked me to write the intro for this book, too. Follow the link below to read it.

I was asked by Syngress Media to write a paper on the prevention and detection of social engineering hacks. It's a subject I don't think gets enough attention. It's pretty short, but I think it has some good tips.

I did a syndicated radio program for awhile. It was 2 minutes of news for "information technology professionals and interested bystanders". It was a blast to do, but I just couldn't spend the time on it that it deserved. Here are some samples in the MP3 format.
