Just get that book! Has all the Information required for you to begin! Later you can join a Institute and get a CEH certificate! Later visit some Ethical Hacking Boards/News Sites and get to know the news/etc.

Just get the Book, You'll get lot of Gyaan! None of the book is better to actually begin! The CISSP certified author Suggest some extra Sites/Books to read after you complete the Book!
thanx a lot I got to know the real difference between them now. I went to a Education Fair yesterday in Delhi .. but noone had a clue on Masters in Security field. I understand that CISSP is good and its based on the exp in this field. and I was thinking may be this (http://www.eccuni.us/mss.htm) type of degree in a regular campus study can help me reach that level earlier. So that it helps in the job too. and then do CISSP or something.
