About this title

From the Author

Hi, My Name is Nipun Jaswal, Author of Mastering Metasploit. Mastering Metasploit is my first writing experience and was the most beautiful journey which laid my foundation in the writing world. I decided to write this book since i found numerous books covering the same old exploits and techniques. And as they say, "If you can't find the book you are looking for, you must write it" i kept the thought of penning this one down. I thank PACKT for providing me with the opportunity to write this book. It took me 10 months of time to pen this one down. I deeply thank you all for making your purchases or planning to make a purchase of my book and i wish this book would take you to a Metasploit and Exploitation journey which you haven't been on before.Wishing you All the Best-Nipun Jaswal(Author)
