Syngress Publishing
Continuing a tradition of excellent training on open source tools, Penetration Tester's Open Source Toolkit, Fourth Edition, is a great reference to the open source tools available today and teaches you how to use them by demonstrating them in real-world examples. Great commercial penetration testing tools can be very expensive and sometimes hard to use or of questionable accuracy. This book helps solve both of these problems. The open source, no-cost penetration testing tools presented do a great job and can be modified by the user for each situation if needed. Many tools, even ones that cost thousands of dollars, do not come with any type of instruction on how and in which situations the penetration tester can best use them. Penetration Tester's Open Source Toolkit, Fourth Edition, expands upon existing instructions so that a professional can get the most accurate and in-depth test results possible. Real-life scenarios are a major focus so that the reader knows which tool to use and how to use it for a variety of situations. This completely updated new edition covers the latest technologies and attack vectors, including industry specific case studies and complete lab setup.
