Kali Linux Intrusion and Exploitation Cookbook

Left arrow icon Right arrow icon

Key benefits

  • Set up a penetration testing lab to conduct a preliminary assessment of attack surfaces and run exploits
  • Improve your testing efficiency with the use of automated vulnerability scanners
  • Work through step-by-step recipes to detect a wide array of vulnerabilities, exploit them to analyze their consequences, and identify security anomalies

Description

With the increasing threats of breaches and attacks on critical infrastructure, system administrators and architects can use Kali Linux 2.0 to ensure their infrastructure is secure by finding out known vulnerabilities and safeguarding their infrastructure against unknown vulnerabilities. This practical cookbook-style guide contains chapters carefully structured in three phases – information gathering, vulnerability assessment, and penetration testing for the web, and wired and wireless networks. It's an ideal reference guide if you’re looking for a solution to a specific problem or learning how to use a tool. We provide hands-on examples of powerful tools/scripts designed for exploitation. In the final section, we cover various tools you can use during testing, and we help you create in-depth reports to impress management. We provide system engineers with steps to reproduce issues and fix them.

Who is this book for?

This book is intended for those who want to know more about information security. In particular, it's ideal for system administrators and system architects who want to ensure that the infrastructure and systems they are creating and managing are secure. This book helps both beginners and intermediates by allowing them to use it as a reference book and to gain in-depth knowledge.

What you will learn

  • Understand the importance of security assessments over merely setting up and managing systems/processes
  • Familiarize yourself with tools such as OPENVAS to locate system and network vulnerabilities
  • Discover multiple solutions to escalate privileges on a compromised machine
  • Identify security anomalies in order to make your infrastructure secure and further strengthen it
  • Acquire the skills to prevent infrastructure and application vulnerabilities
  • Exploit vulnerabilities that require a complex setup with the help of Metasploit

A very useful tour of Kali's tools with lab based learning.The author took the time to upload everything you'll need to set up an internal lab, using tools such as Docker, etc to create an attack and vulnerable labs. Learning via reading is only 1/3 of the battle. Everything else, is real world experience, using those tools. You can read about climbing Everest, without stepping foot on any mountain. You can read about using Kali, without ever using it. Neither will give you real world experience until you start doing it.

I enjoyed the book. It is accurate and provides for interesting reading. It is detailed and self explanatory. The title explains itself "cookbook" - you will learn from the content and expand your knowledge. Money well spend.
