Peter Gutman, from the Univeristy of Auckland, put together the most comprehensive Introduction to Security overview I’ve seen on the Internet.

I think it’s a fantastic starter for those who know nothing about security, and contains plenty of refresher or new information for security professionals. All in all the entire tutorial would be 400 pages if you print it out.
