Our goal in writing Network Intrusion Detection, Third Edition has been toempower you as an analyst. We believe that if you read this book cover to cover,and put the material into practice as you go, you will be ready to enter theworld of intrusion analysis. Many people have read our books, or attended ourlive class offered by SANS, and the lights have gone on; then, they are off tothe races. We will cover the technical material, the workings of TCP/IP, andalso make every effort to help you understand how an analyst thinks throughdozens of examples.

Network Intrusion Detection, Third Edition is offered in five parts. Part I,"TCP/IP," begins with Chapter 1, ranging from an introduction to thefundamental concepts of the Internet protocol to a discussion of RemoteProcedure Calls (RPCs). We realize that it has become stylish to begin a booksaying a few words about TCP/IP, but the system Judy and I have developed hasnot only taught more people IP but a lot more about IP as well—more thanany other system ever developed. We call it "real TCP" because thematerial is based on how packets actually perform on the network, not theory.Even if you are familiar with IP, give the first part of the book a look. We areconfident you will be pleasantly surprised. Perhaps the most important chapterin Part I is Chapter 5, "Stimulus and Response." Whenever you look ata network trace, the first thing you need to determine is if it is a stimulus ora response. This helps you to properly analyze the traffic. Please take the timeto make sure you master this material; it will prevent analysis errors as youmove forward.
