Learn Ethical Hacking from Scratch: Your stepping stone to penetration testing (從零開始學習倫理駭客：滲透測試的踏腳石)

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.
