ETHICAL HACKING AND
PENETRATION TESTING GUIDE
PENETRATION TESTING GUIDE
▪PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Ethical hacking strikes all of us as a subject that requires a great deal of prerequisite knowledge
about things like heavy duty software, languages that includes hordes of syntaxes, algorithms
that could be generated by maestros only. Well that’s not the case, to some extent. This book
introduces the steps required to complete a penetration test, or ethical hack. Requiring no prior
hacking experience, the book explains how to utilize and interpret the results of modern day
hacking tools that are required to complete a penetration test. Coverage includes Backtrack Linux,
Google Reconnaissance, MetaGooFil, dig, Nmap, Nessus, Metasploit, Fast Track Autopwn,
Netcat, and Hacker Defender rootkit. Simple explanations of how to use these tools and a four-
step methodology for conducting a penetration test provide readers with a better understanding
of offensive security.
