Georgia Weidman is a penetration tester and researcher, as well as the founder of Bulb Security, a security consulting firm. She presents at conferences around the world, including Black Hat, ShmooCon, and DerbyCon, and teaches classes on topics such as penetration testing, mobile hacking, and exploit development. She was awarded a DARPA Cyber Fast Track grant to continue her work in mobile device security.
In Penetration Testing, security expert, researcher, and trainer Georgia Weidman introduces you to the core skills and techniques that every pentester needs. Using a virtual machine–based lab that includes Kali Linux and vulnerable operating systems, you’ll run through a series of practical lessons with tools like Wireshark, Nmap, and Burp Suite. As you follow along with the labs and launch attacks, you’ll experience the key stages of an actual assessment—including information gathering, finding exploitable vulnerabilities, gaining access to systems, post exploitation, and more.
Learn how to:
–Crack passwords and wireless network keys with brute-forcing and wordlists
–Test web applications for vulnerabilities
–Use the Metasploit Framework to launch exploits and write your own Metasploit modules
–Automate social-engineering attacks
–Bypass antivirus software
–Turn access to one machine into total control of the enterprise in the post exploitation phase
You’ll even explore writing your own exploits. Then it’s on to mobile hacking—Weidman’s particular area of research—with her tool, the Smartphone Pentest Framework.
With its collection of hands-on lessons that cover key tools and strategies, Penetration Testing is the introduction that every aspiring hacker needs.
Outdated practice environments can't be set up If I could give a 3.5 stars I would. It's not a bad book but it relies on environments which can't be setup anymore to follow the examples. I hope she makes a second edition with a docker environment. It would also benefit from additional practice tasks beyond the walkthrough.From someone with 8 years of IT Security, now Cybersecurity. Where to begin with this book. I had been looking for a book on Kali Linux for over a year now. Many were too deeply set in theory or history and the other half was highly advanced. While I have made a career in cybersecurity, pentesting was something I knew nothing about from a practical standpoint. When I saw this book was by No Starch Press and was full of essential topics (based on table of contents) I did not hesitate to make the purchase.I just finished the book and here is my feedback. Yes some of the .iso files for the target environments are harder to find but can still be found online without the use of torrents. If this stops you from doing the labs then this is purely an academic endeavor and you will not have the skills (resourcefulness) to become a pentester. To me it added to the challenge. I also read in some reviews that the hosted files from the author are no longer available and while this is true, you can still get all the information you need to set up you lab from exploit-db and other sites.Overall this book has done a phenomenal job on introducing users to setting up a lab environments and using tools like Metasploit, Nessus, Maltego, aircrack, and many more. It removed the mystery of how systems are hacked and how anyone with the right mind and technical knowledge could test their own personal network. Always abide by local and federal laws regarding computers.Sources: Master of Science - Cybersecurity (2017), Bachelor of Science - Computer and Information Science (2010), CompTIA Network+ CE and Security+ CE certified.A great introduction to penetration testing A great introduction to penetration testing. I love the hands on approach to learning. You more than likely will have issues running all the examples in the book verbatim due to later versions of the various software involved or the lack of access to old windows operating systems for the labs; but if you focus on the content rather than being able to work out everything exactly in the book, it lays out a great foundation to learn about penetration testing.
