Actually, even though that book is quite old, it seems to be a good starting point for:
Security Architecture

I say it that way, because if you are looking for an overview of how malicious software and people attempt to take over your web site then the book is a valuable resource.

Even the section on Securing Your Web Server is still quite relevant because it offers explanations of how attacks occur and how you an protect from them.

Summary
If nothing else, you'll get a good idea of what you need to do, then it'll be much easier to search for specific ways (software, hardware, etc) which will help you to do that work.
Obviously, the book being older is going to mention outdated resources but the overall plan from the book is good.

Again, it's about Security Architecture.
