Exploiting Online Games: Cheating Massively Distributed Systems. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Addison-Wesley, 2007. Call Number: TK 5105.52.H64 2007 Abstract: Written by two computer experts, the work provides an insider’s view into finding security loopholes in online games that rely upon central server clusters and distributed programming.
There’s a funny story or two associated with each book. The first book Java Security: Hostile Applets, Holes, and Antidotes actually has a hidden message on the cover. The second part of the title spells “HA HA”. We called that one “HA HA” throughout production.
Software Fault Injection, a software engineering tome written with Reliable Software Technologies chief scientist Jeff Voas, was supposed to have a needle on the front. Wiley said “ok” to the needle idea, then pulled a fast one by using Cleopatra’s needle (currently located in Paris) instead of a syringe. The cover turned out fine, but a junkie needle would have been sillier. How many software engineers do you know that shoot smack?
The cover of Securing Java also has an inside joke. Scott Oaks wrote a mediocre book in 1998 called Java Security. In O’Reilly fashion, his book had a birds nest with eggs in it on the front. We decided that it would be interesting to break the eggs. The question is whether the baby bird hatched and flew off into the sunset or a predator came and gobbled it up. You decide.
When we were almost done with Building Secure Software, we began soliciting blurbs for the praise pages at the front of the book. Peter Gutmann, one of the better crypto weenies on the planet, helped us with excellent reviews and some code, and we asked him for a quote. New Zealanders are known for being incredibly understated. In fact, the word “exciting” is not part of the New Zealand vocabulary. Anyway, Peter’s excellent quote for the praise page is “It’s not bad.” Of course, we included it!
Exploiting Online Games has a very cool cover designed by a Brasilian. When we were about to enter production, I sent him email asking for him to hit a certain deadline. He responded by saying “No problem. I can skip school next week since it is Carnival and they don’t take attendance.” Puly is a kid?! Wow.
