Learn how to hack a bank using up to date techniques and tools
This is not a book about information security. Certainly not about IT. This is a book about hacking: specifically, how to infiltrate a company’s network, locate their most critical data, and make off with it without triggering whatever shiny new security tool the company wasted their budget on.
Whether you are a wannabe ethical hacker or just an enthusiast frustrated by outdated books and false media reports, this book is definitely for you.
We will set up a fake – but realistic enough – target and go in detail over the main steps to 0wn the company: building phishing malware, finding vulnerabilities, rooting Windows domains, pwning a mainframe, etc.
Excerpt
"Windows PowerShell has quickly grown to be an admin’s most trusted tool and a hacker’s most beloved mistress"
"A golden rule that every hacker should be familiar with:admins like to reuse passwords"
"Privilege escalation and setuid files may not rhyme together, but they sure as hell make a sweet combo in the Linux world"
Professional Reviews
Absolutely unique and practical way to start learning information security!
This is a perfect and succinct way to start learning information security! Too many infosec tutorials(or any tutorial for that matter) go through a litany of theory before actually getting to a point where the material that is learned is actually applied, this tutorial does away with that idea and has you actually jump in from the beginning. You can easily follow along with this and actually absorb the information while you go along. Kudos to the author!
Great hacking book
Very good book. It is rare to read a book trough the eyes of a hacker from the preparation phase to the leak of data. I recommend it to understand how almost any company could be hacked nowadays... The book is quite technical, but the author explain clearly each step of the attack.
Pretty interesting and pleasant reading! <3
A very practical and interesting book about pentesting and ethical hacking. Pretty educational and, as another reader already said, it's NOT boring at all. It's a very pleasant reading in all the moments and I'll recommend it to my friends and teachers! :D
