I'm a firm believer in open-source network security tools, both because they tend to be ahead of commercial products in paving new security roads, and because the experience they give you with security management is valuable in making intelligent commericial product choices. Alas, until recently you've had to do all your own research when setting up such open-source tools as Etherreal, Nessus, and nMap. But now you can avoid a lot of trial and error testing thanks to the new O'Reilly tome Network Security Tools, by Nitesh�Dhanjani and Justin�Clarke.
