Anyone have any favorite books on cyber/information warfare? The only one on my shelf that's actually dedicated to the topic is Information Warfare Principles and Operations by Waltz. Its a good book, but getting a bit long in the tooth.

Interesting, I'll have to check those out. The Waltz book is good, but really a theory book. No particular expertise needed to follow it.

Dont know if you've seen this, its not really book category, I found an MMORPG called Cyber War..
www.cyberwars.com
The year is 2020. All civilization has gone under. There is now a raging war between the Net Guards and Hackers, good and evil. It's up to you to take a side, and fight for what you think is right. Riches, fame, and power await you... Can you handle it?

Looks kind interesting, I think I'll take a closer look, it says on there forum page under hacking, Discussion of DDOS attacks, SQL injection, XSS, and other site vulnerabilities. NOT an open discussion for "how to's" on attacking websites. and straight away someone has posted need wireshark assistance!?! Rofl.

This looks like a pretty long list of literary works worth a glance.. Love the site there advertised on.. http://staff.washington.edu/dittrich/cyberwarfare.html

This one is an old book. Near mid 90s so a few of the things mused about won't really be surprising to some. But it's a small booklet and I enjoyed it / I still like it / when I got it new to keep me busy while on jury duty.

Also while looking for this old book online (cuz I sure wasn't going to cut up my old copy and scan it for anyone) .. I noticed a U.S. AirForce site had a list of InfoWar books and related documents. I didn't notice anything online just a listing. Coincidentally the site's date shows 1996 as well but it's possible the info it list could be newer.

EDIT: forgot the AF Link.
