My book is finally done. The Applied Security Visualization book (http://=
secviz.org/content/applied-security-visualization-book-available=20
) came out last week, just in time for BlackHat.

The book is very hands-on. It teaches you how to take security data =20
and generate visual representations for specific use-cases that you =20
might be interested in. Some of the things the book talks about:

=95 data sources that are essential for security visualization
=95 graphs and techniques for visualizing data (e.g., when do you use a =20
line chart versus a treemap)
=95 assess threats to your network perimeter, as well as threats imposed =
=20
by insider
=95 use visualization to manage risks and compliance mandates

The book also contains DAVIX, the data analysis and visualization CD, =20
a live CD that contains all the visualization tools discussed in the =20
book, ready to go (seehttp://davix.secviz.org)
