This book has many positive reviews and I notice that Amazon are offering free 2 day shipping for students. Hmmm that must mean it is a textbook for some uni courses.

"Author JR Winkler has done an outstanding job detailing what a network cloud is, how it functions, it's advantages, disadvantages and how to secure it. Winkler takes the reader through the basic idea of a cloud through the design architecture, storage and security."

JR Winkler. I've heard of that name somewhere..? Or am I thinking of Henry?

Oh that's right, JR Winkler is the Chief Technology Officer of Covata! And previously he was a Senior Associate at Booz Allen & Hamilton providing consulting services to U.S. Government clients. He is a published information and cyber security researcher as well as an expert in intrusion/anomaly detection. And he held senior technology roles in a career that spanned more than a decade with Sun Microsystems.

The more you learn about the people in this company the more you realise that we are lucky to even have them on the ASX at all!
