Authored by a Drupal expert, this is the first book to reveal the vulnerabilities and security issues that exist in the sites that have been built with Drupal?and how to prevent them from continuing.

Review: Cracking Drupal: A Drop in the Bucket

User Review  - Ivan Breet - Goodreads

Probably the best Drupal focused book out there. It get's you ripping apart sites in just a few chapters. The book covers various security vulnerabilities and solution in a basic but well explained manner. I really recommend this for all non-beginner Drupal developers. Read full review
