Chapter 1. Introducing Android Pentesting with zANTI2
A few years ago, nobody really knew how far hacking could go, and hijacking a Facebook session was a piece of cake. Nobody cared much about HTTPS, personal data was easily exposed, and security was overall poor. People at the mall could be seen browsing the Web, exposing their personal information, ready to get their data stolen. Internet banking was almost bleeding edge; you could hijack a password and nobody would know. The boss at his office is looking for a brand new car he's going to buy from the money he got from his employees, thinking nobody will notice, though the whole squad is hijacking through an unprotected protocol seeing what the boss is up to. That might be a fun thing to do, but in fact, this can get very serious in some ways.
In this chapter, we'll:
- Talk about what goes into penetration testing
- Learn how zANTI2 fits in the picture
- Learn what is required to perform penetration tests
