Read at least:
Schneier's "Secrets and Lies",
the Carlisle Adams and ..? book on public key infrastructure
the Cheswick and Bellovin book on firewalls.
All three give good overall perspective stuff.
Look around at www.sans.org (SANS = System Admin & Network Security).
They have links to lots of resources, and they offer courses and
certifications. Try to get your employer/client to pay for their
basic course. It will likely be useful, and the certification looks
good on a resume.
