Learn how to hack systems like black hat hackers and secure them like security experts

Key Features

  • Understand how computer systems work and their vulnerabilities
  • Exploit weaknesses and hack into machines to test their security
  • Learn how to secure systems from hackers

Book Description

This book starts with the basics of ethical hacking, how to practice hacking safely and legally, and how to install and interact with Kali Linux and the Linux terminal. You will explore network hacking, where you will see how to test the security of wired and wireless networks. You'll also learn how to crack the password for any Wi-Fi network (whether it uses WEP, WPA, or WPA2) and spy on the connected devices.

Moving on, you will discover how to gain access to remote computer systems using client-side and server-side attacks. You will also get the hang of post-exploitation techniques, including remotely controlling and interacting with the systems that you compromised. Towards the end of the book, you will be able to pick up web application hacking techniques. You'll see how to discover, exploit, and prevent a number of website vulnerabilities, such as XSS and SQL injections.

The attacks covered are practical techniques that work against real systems and are purely for educational purposes. At the end of each section, you will learn how to detect, prevent, and secure systems from these attacks.

What you will learn

  • Understand ethical hacking and the different fields and types of hackers
  • Set up a penetration testing lab to practice safe and legal hacking
  • Explore Linux basics, commands, and how to interact with the terminal
  • Access password-protected networks and spy on connected clients
  • Use server and client-side attacks to hack and control remote computers
  • Control a hacked system remotely and use it to hack other systems
  • Discover, exploit, and prevent a number of web application vulnerabilities such as XSS and SQL injections

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME!! Book is fantastic!
Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2018

I've have this book since it came out, it (along with a course I discovered on (now this is not a plug for it) Udemy by the same name and author, Zaid) has been instrumental for me in learning the basics and concepts of setting up a fully functional system for Pen Testing. It was like being in school again for me (the book as a textbook and the supplemental video course by Zaid was just what the doctor ordered.

Zaid is clear and concise in his method of instruction and knows the subject of Pen Testing and Cyber Security very well.

I don't understand why the other rater gave him a 1 star and couldn't get past page 4, and YES, all the downloads and links work fine, guess that guy is new to certain aspects of knowing how systems work.

Bottomline, this book is absolutely awesome and deserves to be right up with the best on the subject of Pen Testing.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS is where you start!!!!

In the same vein of Georgia Weidman book at beginning pentesting....this is THE book to start with hands down.
It is the most current and the instruction found in the book is extremely easy to follow.

Unfortunately, much of the material in her (Wiedmans) book is outdated, but Zaids book has that covered!

The complex issues are broken down in to portions that are digestible and they build on each other.

The author also has a Udemy video course of the same name that seems to follow the subject matter in the book.
He is very responsive and you also find it easy to follow the examples that he provides.

I cannot stress enough how good the author is at conveying ideas to beginners to give them a VERY good basis for entering the pentesting/cracking (white hat) realm.

This book definitely deserves a look if you are heading into this realm of cybersecurity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Zaid Sabih Is A Rock Star Ethical Hacker Instructor !!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2019

Zaid Sabih is an amazing instructor, I always end up learning new things from him. He uses real-world hacking methods and breaks it down and makes it interesting. He will walk you through setting up your own lab so you get the practical experience along with the theory. I just can't say enough great things about his books or videos, they are that good. I highly recommend anything he teaches, if you want to be the best ethical hacker and be a step above everyone else, you should get this book. I would give him 10 stars but they only have 5...

Great book. This is by far the best I’ve read yet.
The way it is explained makes it much easier to understand and remember the steps and processes to hacking. And that allowed myself more time practicing hacking in the virtual labs. This was a huge help for getting my CEH certification.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Introduction to Pentesting but a little outdated now.
Reviewed in the United States on December 30, 2019
Im attempting to break into the cyber security field and after reading all the reviews i scooped this book up ASAP. Im currently 3/4 way through the book and my impressions are this:

The author breaks down the theory of what you are doing very well and it is very clear, the problem is that a fair amount of the tools no longer work or are even shipped with the most current distros of Kali Linux. That being said with some youtubing and general research you can enact a good portion of the exploits but it won't be as simple as just following along in the book. Im assuming that this is a result of the fast paced world of keeping up with cyber criminals but all in all be ready to try to apply the theory of what is taught here using different tools.

Page 4 sends you to the website to download code files for the projects, only problem is the code files don’t work on the website. I emailed support and they still haven’t gotten back to me after a week. I was really looking forward to it
